Which is the toughest dragon in SoA (no mods) in your opinion?

This is my fourth time through the game. I am now playing a Blade. I have killed in the following order Adalon (se started the fight - she was angry because of her eggs), Firkaag and the shadow dragon (sorry, can't remeber the name).

So far, for me Adalon was the toughest.

Angry Silver Dragon is the toughest, because I find my self revoltingly evil for killing such a creature. While I always play my evil characters are true to character as possible, I always have a hard time with this one act.

Shadow dragon is something like Thaxl'sillya.

The toughest dragon is the first one you meet. Whichever that is. When battling the second, you will have better equipment and abilities.

Hehe, finally a chance to correct the corrector himself. [img]tongue.gif[/img] The Shadow Dragon is Thaxll'ssillyia.

Plus that you will have experience in fighting dragons, so you might be able to more easily work out a tactic.
Agreed 100% with Vedran. [img]smile.gif[/img]

DRAGON SHORTHAND FOR THE SPELLING IMPAIRED:

Shadow Dragon: Thaxy
Red Dragon: Firky
Silver Dragon: Addy
Black Dragon: Nizzy

And for those who can say Thaxll'ssillyia, Firkraag, Adalon, and Nizidramanii'yt without looking them up, I suggest professional help.

Hardest one for me is Firkraag, has always been Firkraag, and will always be Firkraag. He's a tricky little devil no matter your level.

The Silver Dragon in my opinion is the toughest dragon to face. I've been able to put up with Firkragg and the Shadows/Black dragons but she was by far the hardest.

P.s.- Vedran, Xen, there is such a thing as the "toughest" dragon to face if you're not equiped to handle them [img]tongue.gif[/img]

True, but that doesn't depend on the dragon, but on your party. The question was "Who is the toughest dragon for majority of parties?"

So, what you're saying is that it all depends on the party. So all the creatures in the game are hard, just depends on you? True I guess, but don't forget it all doesn't depend on party statistics, you also have to have a good knowledge of most monsters, but if you don't technically it makes them "harder."

With mostly the same party.
Player XP is often much more important than a well equipped and skilled characters.
