Almost perfect; burrowing is much more restrictive than flight(which is 3rd level) and the bonus of tremorsense isn't quite enough to pull it the rest of the way to third (Darkvision is after all, 60ft and 8 hours without concentration). The only issue is tunneling through solid stone. The fact that you can choose to leave a tunnel through solid stone means a party of 3rd level characters can just draw their own path through dungeons. I'm a little more comfortable hiking that up to a 5th level party (3rd level), but I think the better choice is to follow the monster manual definition of burrowing and exclude solid stone, leaving "sand, earth, mud, or ice". --[[User:Vaegrim|Vaegrim]] ([[User talk:Vaegrim|talk]]) 21:11, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
