Strong creatures able to use both Melee and distance combat. Dwarf Guards and Dwarf Soldiers are the most hunted kind of Dwarves since they have the highest drop rate of Iron Ores.
Low levels should avoid them as they can hurt quite badly. When they are in low health, their bolts seem to be stronger, so be aware if you think you have almost killed them. Mages: Use a wand or rod with Fire Damage and Exori Flam.
