Improving == Notes ==* The [[quality]] of the [[rope]] affects your success chance.* The quality of the [[square piece of cloth]] affects the initial quality of the dredge .* Failure damages both the [[rope]] and the [[square piece of cloth]].* Improvement uses [[Blacksmithing]] skill but [[carpentry ]] tools : [[mallet]], [[file]], [[carving knife]], [[pelt]] and [[log]].* Dredging works similar to digging, though you can be embarked on a boat or ship to dredge. Move on top of the corner you want to dig at, right-click the boat or ship you are on, and logsselect ''Dredge''. The dredged material appears inside the boat. In order to level a tile to flat, however, one must be over an already-flat tile that is next to the nearby tile that is to be flattened (right-click -> level will appear only on tiles outside of boat and very near).*On bigger ships you may have to embark as passenger to get the option to dredge, because as the commander you might technically be too far way from the boat to use it. It is also a good idea to [[mooring anchor|moor]] your ship or boat before dredging.*You can dredge all kinds of materials, but improves blacksmithing skillfor instance [[clay]], [[peat]], [[tar]], [[gems]], and [[valrei item|valrei items]].
== Dredging ==
A dredge is used to dig dirt from under the water level. Maximum depth is determined by your digging skill. You need a boat to dredge. When not in a boat you can only dredge to the same depth as you could dig with a shovel (2 dirt deep).
To use a dredge, while in a boat such as a Small Rowing boat, you simply float on top of the tile you want to dredge, and right click the tiles below and select "Dredge". Dredging will also make the tile you dredged steeper, just like normal digging. There is no specific boat to dredge from. There is no such boat as a "Dredger".
Dredging is for most purposes identical to digging on land. Thus dredging on dirt or sand lowers the terrain, while dredging on clay does not. The dredged items appear inside the dredge. The dredge can only hold two dirt or sand, so make sure you have access to the ship hold. Tar, peat and clay take less space, and the dredge does not need to be emptied as often.[[Category:Tools]][[Category:Babel/D]]

== Description ==
''A wooden bucket on a long shaftdirty sack with four metal blades along its rim. Holes have been made in A rope is attached to it. The idea is that you drag it along the bottom and the interior is lined with cloth to keep the dirtgather mud.''
== Usage ==* The cloth determines success rate[[dredge]]'s main ability is to dig from below water level, since digging with a shovel can only be done down to 7 dirt below water level. Dredge quality and [[digging]] skill affect the rope determines initial QLmaximum depth you can dredge. You cannot dredge at a depth greater than 180 dirt below sea level. * A dredge holds can hold 2 [[pile of dirt|piles of dirt]] or [[heap of sand|heaps of sand]] (40kg), or 36 litresclay (72kg), before it requires emptying.** When dredging, there must be space in the dredge and in the ship for the materials you would acquire.* You may not dredge stone.*Be careful when dredging while swimming as you will quickly run out of stamina and drown. A rowboat is the best boat to dredge from, as you can contain liquidssee the tiles below you much easier than on other boats.
