Dredge: How To Deal With The Sea Monster At The Stellar Basin

gameranx.com:

Dredge is a game full of mystery with a sprinkling of horror to keep you on your toes. Of course, you can just spend countless hours fishing in relative safety, but the real goal is to uncover every secret and stare into the unknown and demand answers. In pursuit of this, you will eventually make your way to the Stellar Basin – easily the most dangerous place in the early parts of Dredge.

This is for two reasons. Firstly, the path to get here is fraught with peril. Large sea creatures, living tornados, and general madness will all start to take their toll, and if you aren’t prepared (or quick on the wheel) you will likely find yourself at the bottom of the ocean. Secondly, there is a giant tentacle monster that takes up the majority of the Stellar Basin, and it wants to kill you.

This giant tentacle monster is a real threat. A threat so significant, you can’t operate here. Fishing is dangerous to the point of being impossible, and all the good fish are, naturally, spawning directly on top of the monster itself. If you even attempt to approach this thing, your vision will get all warped and then you will be torn apart. Not a great start. 

Not only that, there is a giant shark that will hound you if you linger too long in the Basin. This makes fishing – even on the outskirts of the monster – a near-impossible task. Not without risking your ship and all of its cargo. Thankfully, you can disable both of these monsters if you know what to do. 

The trick is the Research Station, however, it is currently out of order. To fix it and get it operational, you need to complete a Pursuit. Head to the Old Fortress and talk to the
