Useful Info

Dragons (or fire dragons) are powerful giant lizards with potent fire breath and vulnerability to cold. They are by no means the deadliest of the dragons in the game, but they can make short work of careless mid-level characters. They are found in the deeper sections of the Dungeon.

Tips & Tricks

  • Butchering a dragon's corpse may produce a fire dragon hide, which you can enchant to create a fire dragon armour.
  • If you have any sources of fire resistance, wear them now, as a dragon's fire breath can prove devastating, especially to any characters with fire vulnerability. Mummies without a source of fire resistance should probably stay very far away from any dragons they find.
  • Transmuters should fight dragons in their natural form, possibly with Blade Hands. Dragons resist poison, negating much of the damage that Spider Form can provide (though the form's high evasion might help you dodge the fire breath). While Ice Form can deal heavy damage, you really don't want to give yourself fire vulnerability when there are dragons around.
