I GOT REAL lucky on thi sone but i managed to kill him. Anyone know where i can get the shadow scales crafted into armor? the dwarf who builds the artifact weapon ?

Oh and did anyone else figure out how to get to the windspear hills? It doesnt appear on my map but i have the acorns and accepted the quest from the dryads.

BTW the drags loot Stunk except for the scales a scroll and 3500k and some rare gems.

You can get to the Windspear Hills after talking to some guy (I have no idea what his name is), who gives you a quest to go purge that land of evil.

Just curious how did you kill him?

Cromwell in the Dock District will make armor from the scales. Nice stuff.

To kill the dragon, I had Edwin summon 5 earth elementals. I sent one in to take the death spell. Then I sent in the other four. While the dragon was busy, I sent in my cleric and used a spell to decrease it Magic Resitance (I forget the spell name, but it is 4th or 5th level). This cleric spell resets the Magic Resistance to a much lower level and there is no save for it.

Moving my cleric away, I then used my mages to pelt him with lightening bolts. The only damage I took in the battle was from an Elemental who got caught by the Dragons Confusion spell.

or... you can send your thief in stealth mode to set traps all around him, them pound him with magic missiles and chromatic orbs, while using two or three +3 weapons on him. Pretty effective.

Heh. Or send in your Monk to kill it in one punch... if you're lucky

my bud took ankheg scales to cromwell, he made them into armor, so he probably will do it for dragon scales. A guy named Firkaag will approach you and tell you to kill the monsters at his place in Windspear, marking it on your map.
