How to Play

Class Selection

Duergar are restricted from the following classes:

  • Bard (Bard), Charlatan (Bard), Dancer (Bard), Jester (Bard), Gaian (Druid), Mer (Druid), Skywatcher (Druid), Monk (Fighter), Paladin (Fighter), Ranger (Fighter), any mage subclass and Arcanist (Thief).

Other classes that may represent added challenges:

  • A Duergar's low charisma greatly impacts Bard subclasses (Bard, Charlatan, Dancer, Jester).
  • A Duergar's Grow ability will strip them of their undersized clothing, requiring fighter-types to constantly resize a second set of gear.
    • However, Beastmaster and Delver Duergar are much more familiar with resizing equipment needs to fit their forms (or running without equipment).
