Contributor Guidelines

CONTRIBUTOR GUIDELINES When creating a new class-combination guide: Use the page name generated by the selector. Focus on how the classes work together rather than rewriting the individual class pages. Link back to the individual class pages for class-specific details, such as spell lists. Use existing single-class pages as references, but do not copy large sections from them unless they directly apply to the combination. Add practical advice: camps, roles, tactics, strengths, weaknesses, and gear priorities.
