Waterspout

Waterspouts are dangers that can appear throughout the world of DREDGE, especially in the Gale Cliffs or Pale Reach region. When the player hits a waterspout, they will take hull damage. There is also a slight chance for a Fish to be flung into the player's cargo hold by the spout during a collision.

Normal waterspouts appear white in color and are usually seen in the Gale Cliffs region. They stay in place or move along a set direction. However, if you have high panic, iridescent variants of waterspouts can sometimes appear. These 'aberrant' waterspouts will actively chase the player if the come too close and will grant the player Aberrations instead of fish. Their appearance is not dependant on the time of day.

Waterspouts are usually easily avoided and do not take much care to deal with. Aberrant ones, however, are far more difficult to avoid as they can and will chase the player until the is hit, docks, or the waterspout is out of render distance. Thankfully, these waterspout are affected by the Banish ability.
