Just got thru it today! You're talking about the one in the temple ruins, right? I died many times too. But in the end, I prevailed! I'll assume you want to kill the dragon in a non-cheesy way [img]smile.gif[/img]

The key for me was the mages. I had two, though it's nicer with three (I had three the first time thru the game). The main damage I inflicted was from casting Magic Missile at it. But it's not very effective until you cast a Lower Resistance or two. Casting MM through a sequencer is pretty effective too. After running out of Magic Missiles, I went with fireballs.

My tanks and summoned creatures were used as diversions. Haste em up and have em hit & run. If the dragon hits you, run away and send another guy in to whack at it. The dragon is pretty immune to your attacks, so don't expect to make much damage. But the main goal for these guys is just to keep the mages alive and casting. You just need to buy a few rounds before the mages finish it up, maybe 10-15 rounds. Actually, that's a lot of rounds!

Hope this helps. Good luck!
