Dredge Add-On Guide

The Dredge

Tracking profile for The Dredge. Focus on locker teleport pressure.

Core plan

The Dredge wins by unpredictable re-entry and Nightfall snowball. Build add-ons around locker teleport pressure and avoid setups that only look good in highlight moments.

When this guide applies

  • You want to maximize locker teleport pressure value rather than generic perk-only pressure.
  • Your recent losses come from failing to convert tracking windows consistently.
  • Secure first-contact pressure quickly.
  • Convert info windows into decisive route cuts.
  • Protect center-map objective lanes from split pressure.

Specific add-ons to consider

Iridescent Wooden Plank

Survivors are Exposed for the final 12 seconds of Nightfall.

Best when: Nightfall closeout routes where late-window burst lethality converts into fast downs.

Field Recorder

Trial starts in Nightfall, Nightfall triggers at last gen, and survivors contacting the Remnant become Exhausted.

Best when: Tempo-heavy game plans that front-load darkness pressure and force awkward survivor timings.

Lavalier Microphone

Reveals all survivor auras after consuming the last power token and causes nearby lockers to slam when teleporting in.

Best when: Information bursts that let you chain teleports into immediate target selection.

Perk pairings

Common mistakes

  • Common leak: teleporting without nearby conversion potential.
  • Overloading niche add-ons that reduce consistency in normal queue states.
  • Ignoring map-state win condition while chasing extra mechanical value.
