Useful Info
Wind drakes are one of the least deadly lesser dragons, but they are still capable of irritating and injuring adventurers. Their Air Magic can pummel you with smite-targeted wind damage or push you around the battlefield, and they have a naturally-occurring Deflect Missiles effect at all times. They can be encountered in the Shoals, and can be summoned by enemies with the Summon Drakes spell.
Spells

---|---|---|
Slot1 | Wind Blast | Natural flag, Breath flag |
Slot2 | Airstrike (2d(7-23)) | Natural flag |
Slot3 | Repel Missiles | Natural flag |
Tips & Tricks
- Airstrike deals significantly more damage to flying targets, so consider getting earthbound fast when they show up (assuming you aren't flying over deep water at the time).
- When a wind drake is in a horde of monsters on attack, do not attempt to stair dance nor rely on stairs as your primary mode of escape; at any time, you can be blasted back by the wind drake.
