what is the use of collapse edges in dyntopo

[Ahmed wael]

couldn’t find a real use of it

Hi Ahmed,

Neither could I; I never use it.I also can’t remember having ever seen anyone using it, but I haven’t seen everything, of course.

Maybe it’s a remnant from the time when there was no Simplify Brush?

Even Kent says he never uses it, so you’re fine.

You use it when you want to reduce the geometry of a sculpt when working with dynotopo. In a sculpt modeling workflow it’s commonly used for making quick proxies meshes for animators while the retopo artist are rebuilding the finial mesh.
