Useful Info

Bone dragons are undead draconic horrors. They lack a breath weapon, but make up for it with powerful melee capabilities, excellent defense, and plentiful HP. You can find them in the deepest parts of the Dungeon, the Crypt, the Vaults, the Abyss, and the Hells (primarily Tartarus).

Tips & Tricks

  • Dispel Undead or powerful non-elemental Conjurations are effective, but it still takes several shots to kill them. If you can increase your movement speed slightly, you may be able to kite them easily enough.
  • Yredelemnul sometimes gifts you bone dragons at high piety. They make awesome pets, especially if you have the ability to Haste them.

History

Prior to 0.12, bone dragons were slower but had significantly more HP.
