Grand Blue Dwarf Race Guide

Direct answerQuick answer: Dwarf is a mining and tank-leaning race. Four independent community sources align on its main bonuses: +15% double resource chance for mining and smelting, +25% mining XP, +10% Max HP, -10% move speed, gear stats treated as +1 level, and -10% weapon skill cooldown. Rarity and tier are community-reported: commonly around Epic ~2%, with some sources reporting 4%, and tier placements range from S to B/B+ depending on the source.
Quick answer
Dwarf is worth keeping when your plan includes mining, smelting, gear progression, weapon uptime or a sturdier bossing route. It is less clean for pure mobility because the same community kit includes a reported -10% move speed tradeoff.
What is Dwarf?
Dwarf is one of the eight community-documented Grand Blue races. It belongs under the race system, not traits, fruits or fighting styles. Its identity is practical: gather more resources, level mining faster, become harder to kill, and make weapon skills feel more available.
How to get Dwarf
Dwarf is obtained through race rerolls. Race odds are not official, and community reports put Dwarf around Epic ~2%, with some sources reporting 4%. Read Grand Blue Rerolls before spending because a race reroll can replace a race you may not get back quickly.

Dwarf vs other races
| Race comparison | Dwarf advantage | Dwarf tradeoff |
| Dwarf vs Seafolk | Mining, smelting and gear progression | Seafolk remains the clearer fishing and water-specialist pick |
| Dwarf vs Celestial Human | Resource and gear utility is more explicit | Celestial is usually rated higher for rare PvP value in community tiers |
| Dwarf vs Human | A real bonus kit for mining, HP, gear and cooldowns | Human avoids rarity anxiety because it is the baseline/default |
| Dwarf vs mobility races | Durability and life-skill economy | Reported -10% move speed can feel costly |
Build synergy
- Mining and smelting: pair Dwarf with Life Skills when your goal is ore, tool progression or crafting materials
- Gear-focused builds: the reported gear stats +1 level makes equipment choices more relevant
- Weapon builds: cooldown reduction helps a physical layer; compare weapons on Weapons
- Role planning: use Builds and the Build Finder before rerolling away from a working race
Keep or reroll advice
| Situation | Recommendation | Reason |
| You rolled Dwarf early | Usually keep | The mining, HP, gear and cooldown kit is broad enough to build around |
| You only care about fishing | Consider Seafolk only with reroll budget | Dwarf helps mining, not the documented Seafolk fishing package |
| You need maximum movement | Test before committing | The reported move-speed penalty may bother route farming or PvP |
| You are chasing an S-tier label | Do not rely on one tier list | Source tier placements conflict from S to B/B+ |
