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 Repel Missiles effect at all times. They can be encountered in the Shoals, some of The Lair endings, and can be summoned by enemies with the Summon Drakes spell.
Spells
| Spell set I | ||
|---|---|---|
| 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 landing 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.
History
