I've never had any trouble with the Black Dragon. By the time you get to Suldanessalar, your party should be fairly kicka$$ tough.
I've never used death fog or timestop to nuke this dragon. 4 tough elementals. Cast all of the protection and buffing spells on the party. Have your tanks charge in with your summoned monsters. Have your mages be prepared to cast breeching spells the moment that the dragon brings up magical defenses. Dump a horrid wilting spell or 2 on top of the dragon for good measure. Shouldn't ever be any more difficult than that.
