:For the same reason a cavalrist wouldn't choose not to take [[Publication:Unearthed Arcana/Slow|this flaw]]. And while this flaw will not affect a dwarf's speed, the dwarf's own racial features already take care of that. With a medium load comes a maximum Dexterity bonus to armor class, and an armor check penalty of -3, that applies to almost every Strength and Dexterity related Skill. --[[User:Sulacu|Sulacu]] 21:18, 26 March 2011 (UTC) | :For the same reason a cavalrist wouldn't choose not to take [[Publication:Unearthed Arcana/Slow|this flaw]].

| I've never really been a fan of the Flaw system. That said, this provides some set penalties (permanent Max Dex, check penalties) and situational DM counters that should work well to offset getting an additional feat... all while providing players some incentive to work around their character's deficiencies, you know, roleplaying. |
Encumbrance
It doesn't actually add to the amount of stuff you are carrying, so the encumbrance doesn't hurt you at all if you are really carrying a medium or heavy load? Why would a Dwarf choose not to take this flaw? --Foxwarrior 20:52, 26 March 2011 (UTC)
