Dredges are all the wrong material

Recommended Posts

I have no idea if this has even been reported, but here goes:

 

Dredges consist of a cloth bag on a rope, with steel lips to scrape up dirt. The in-game model, crafting recipe, and skill all reflect this to some degree.

 

However, when you build them, they are all inexplicably made out of birchwood, and thus improve using carpentry materials.

 

This obviously makes no sense. Why does a blacksmithing item made out of steel, cloth, and rope become birchwood upon creation?

 

Solution: Make them out of a more reasonable material involved, like the cloth or the steel (although steel might be annoying to improve).

This is one of the oddities that people got used to and it's actually used to level smithing with carpentry tools. Same goes for the wooden spears.

Wooden spears are kind of odd but make some level of sense. They're made out of wood (primarily), so you use wood/carpentry tools to improve them, and are made out of wood, but also use weaponsmithing skill since they're a weapon.
 I see no similar mental justification for dredges being made out of wood.
