Musicus Meter Score: 8

This race has a score of 8 according to the Musicus Meter race guidelines. With this metric, first-party races' scores range from 4.5 to 8. This is a guideline, not a rule, and it's important to use your own judgment alongside this scoring.

This scoring may be the groundwork for a focused {{needsbalance}} usage. A contributor to this page may request a detailed breakdown of this page's balance. Without this information, {{needsbalance}} may then be removed. This meter cannot be the sole basis for a needsbalance template, but may be included as an accessory to a wider discussion of a race's balance.

This template should only be placed on a race's talk page. If this template is not placed on the talk page, please move it.

Why? Well:

• +2/+1 ASI increases score by 3.
• 25ft of movement speed decreases score by -0.5.
• Thick fur increases score by 2.5. Why? Because by any sane 5e character creation standard any character have minimum of +1 CON, so minimum AC is 14 with this. That is worth alone 2, but scaling with CON is not usual, my drift being usually CON is higher than DEX, so an additional 0.5 to score sounds about right.
• Powerful build is worth 0.5 as normal.
• Sharp claws is worth 1 as normal.
• Durable is worth 1.5 as normal.

Concluding, this should be on mountain dwarf level, and overall it is. --Cezaryx (talk) 01:07, 14 December 2021 (MST)
