Dredge: Complete Guide to Hooded Figure Locations and Their Solutions

Incorporating more fish into my diet is something I could truly benefit from. Fish is packed with essential vitamins and minerals and plays a significant role in cholesterol management. However, as a somewhat selective eater, my fish consumption is largely limited to fried preparations or dishes adorned with flavorful toppings like miso glaze.

Breaking free from this habit is imperative. Perhaps donning a mysterious hooded cloak and isolating myself on an uninhabited island would inspire me to embrace a fish-rich diet—or at least lead me to barter with roaming fishermen! This peculiar theory seems to resonate with the Hooded Figures in Dredge.

Overview of the Hooded Figures

In Dredge, players encounter four Hooded Figures across the ocean (a fifth becomes available with the DLC).Each enigmatic being resides on small islands, eagerly awaiting specific sea creatures that you must catch and deliver to them.

Fulfill their requests to earn valuable stat-boosting books that can enhance your gameplay. Each Figure’s culinary preferences are diverse, compelling players to explore different fishing techniques and journey to various islands to collect the necessary fish.

Initially, delivering fish to these Hooded Figures was time-sensitive within the game. If you delayed too long, they would starve, frustratingly ending the quest. Fortunately, this mechanic has been removed in version 1.1.0, allowing players to take their time in fulfilling these quests.

The Figure in Blue, dressed in a striking azure outfit, can be found at coordinates M7, on a small island southeast of Little Marrow.

Additionally, both normal and aberrant varieties of fish are acceptable unless specified otherwise.
