Try doing sneak attacks at the start. The dragon has approx 400hp so any little head start helps. As mentioned, you need +3 weapons.
Also, instead of boosting the party, try to super boost 1 or 2 characters. It is hard to hit the dragon, but if one character is constantly succeeding, you will wear him down. The dragon also concentrates on 1 character at a time so if you have a weak character getting attacked, run away with him & then send him back in when the dragon turns to attack someone else.
Hasting all your party works & having some temporary peons around to get killed takes some of the attention off your party. Of course, the spell for acid resistance is nice too...
