Does it even need to be rolled when you are wearing a gigantic metal helmet covering everything?
opinions?

Nope. That is my opinion. Its not like the 20-40 people online are the ONLY people that live in the area, and people should remember that. Your helmeted dwarf is surely not the only helmeted dwarf in the area...

Its like a guy in disguise. Unless you're talking to someone you know, there is no reason to roll bluff, since bluff is to cover a lie. If they dont know the truth or even suspect the truth, you word is enough. Like, what would be the reason and the object of the suspiciousness in the first place? Its like meeting someone name Havel and ask his name. He says Mike. Why would you ask for a bluff roll if you have no reason to suspect that his name is not Mike? Do you ask for bluff everytime someone says his name? They could be lying...................................

if you're talking about a duergar passing for a dwarf on the surface it should be fairly easy as long as he keeps his helmet on and doesnt talk to any surface dwarves
however considering they have no facial hair the lack of beard is prolly a give away for those in the know..iirc

Not sure if the monster manual was updated or not, but I could have sworn they were always bald but could grow beards.

Thanks. I wouldn't put it past wizards of the coast to change a creature, I was browsing some forums about 4.0 and someone said that illithid now spit acid and feast through the top of the skull. (making my character description useless) |

There are skills in one of those manuals which I am not truly familiar with that have the disguise skill and the sense motive skill..There are many others as well.
