I wouldn't have minded reloading that many times, if I was rewarded for killing the dragon in some way. 2700 exp. Whopee... :rolleyes: Take him down the stairs never thought about that. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Considering at least half the stuff you kill gives you NO experience... I think that's pretty decent [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Amen! Nthing pi$$es me off more than fighting a horde of monsters and getting NO freaking xp except for MAYBE from the boss. At least the dragon gave a lot of xp when he dies.

The Guardian isn't that tough if you use the right tactics (and that doesn't include the resilient sphere cheese) - fought him right on the platform and took him down the first time with no deaths. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Just going through the game the first time, and I fought him last night. First couple times I got blown away. I had +4 weapon and stuff, but I didn't seem to be doing any serious damage to him. The only thing I had which was very effective was my druid with Call Lightning and Static Charge. Thus, I surrounded him with my Fighter, Rogue (He's a reasonable warrior), and Ranger, and beat on him. I had my cleric memorize max heal spells and heal them when they got low on life. I had my druid just keep casting Call Lightning and Static Charge. I used the Sorceror to Stoneskin the frontliners and toss spells at the dragon. In the end, the dragon finally died to a call lightning spell.... woo!
