Lore/History
A human settlement that comes under attack by The Chosen and a Titan during the PAX gameplay video. Dredge is a mining facility built on "one of the largest known Crystite deposits."

"Dredge is just one of perhaps several cities that will act as hubs for players. In Dredge, it seems reasonable you can expect to be able to shop for new gear, trade, meet up with other players, and manage your equipment, crafting and other activites that don't require venturing out into the world."

From the official site :

"As the Accord’s main source of crystite, Dredge has become a thriving and crucial strategic asset. Home to daring crystite extraction teams, it’s Unnecessary apostrophe. Do not fix. [sic] proximity to the Melding has also made it a hub of Should be 'for'. Do not fix. [sic] search and rescue operations, as well as the target of relentless Chosen attacks that keep the Accord busy. But the allure of plentiful crystite, Unnecessary comma. Do not fix. [sic] and the convenient habit of Accord forces ignoring anything that does not impede it’s Unnecessary apostrophe. Do not fix. [sic] production, Unnecessary comma. Do not fix. [sic] has also made it a sanctuary for criminals, rebels, greed and sin."

"To many, Dredge is the best place to help forge this new world, to find new clusters of crystite or find and help new survivors trapped in undiscovered Melding-free fragments. To others, however, it is ground zero for the battles against the Chosen, or a loose and dangerous place where a bold marauder can skim crystite by guile or force and spend it all in an evening of debauchery. Either way, Dredge has become a vital artery in the construction of Ember and the survival of the Accord."

"Located in the shadows of the cliffs surrounding the Smokestack Desert area, Dredge quickly became humanity’s most viable source of remaining crystite. After the crash of the Arclight and the resulting Melding disaster, the Accord quickly moved in to Dredge and set it up as its primary crystite extraction operation. While Dredge provides the vast majority of the crystite for the Accord, mercenary armies are relegated to scrounging and fighting over smaller deposits that still exist in New Eden Missing comma. Do not fix [sic] and some even risk venturing inside the Melding to meet their needs." References
