Okay, I killed the shadow dragon finally!!! With my level 14 scorceress, but it wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. (reloaded five times.) I was level 14 with about 20000 exp way from level 15 but I was determined to beat the dragon. I forgot certain vital things when fighting a dragon, like dragon fear (relaod, cast resist fear on myself) dragons like to cast death spell on summoned creatures (reload, forget that idea) dragons LOVE to wing buffet.
This is what I did:
I was invisible to the dragon due to the ward stone. I cast stoneskin, mirror image, and mislead. I then cast lower resistance and the dragon went hostile. I was immune to the dragon breath due to the amulet of power so I didn't worry about that. The dragon wing buffeted me, so I got back up and cast another lower resistance while it made lunch out of me misleaded figure. Then I cast greater malison on the dragon between wing buffets and recasting stonekin and mirror image, and mislead. Then I cast spook. The dragon got scared of little old me. I picked up a wand of lightning in the dungeon so I let loose with it and magic missles. The spook ran out!!! The dragon's magic resistance came back,oops!!! I cast lower resistance again. Then I cast blind and it worked!!! By this time I was running out of damaging spells but a few magic missles later I killed the dragon!!! I had to reload once when I blinded the dragon because if you don't kill him soon enough he will cast heal on himself arrrrgh!!!! I guess maybe I got lucky!!! The worst thing was that I had sequenced three flame arrows earlier and I completely forgot!!! Doh!!!!!! Hope I didn't leave anything out, but this was basically it.
