This 'being unique legendary hero' argument is also weird
Imho ... main problem with TCoE, is that its general.
There is nothing bad about once uppon a time having a single Dwarf that is in eyes of other Dwarves not strong or tough at all, but its actualy smart (like Book smart, Int rather than Wis) and agile ...
But TCoE makes them all this way. :-/
I still dont understand why cant we change Race for our hirelings. Lets us play Githyanki as racist as they trully are!
