ok im getting desperate here, ive been trying to kill that red dragon for the paladin quest, but none of my dudes can score one hit...i have the dragonslayer sword, but it never hit. also tried wand of cloudkill, and that damages him, but he keeps casting heal on himself... im really stumped here, any advice?

Okay you need to be high enough level first of all, say around 11 or 12. You should have your mages and druids do their summoning and buffing and then get the mages to fire off lower resistance's at him, dump a cloud kill and wade in with the fighters eventually when he has 0 mr left he starts with around 60 get the mages to use the offensive magics

If you have Anomen and he's high enough level, try Finger of Death.

Lower Resistance is always good, as are magic missles.

IMHO, this is great advice. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif Remember lower resistance is cumulative as jabidas alludes. This was my tactic (except I didn't use cloud kill) and it worked like a charm for me. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif Good luck. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Also a tactic you can use with any dragon is give a fighter boots of speed and let the dragon chase the fighter all over his lair while everyone hits him with magic and range attacks and your thief keeps trying to backstab the dragon.
