There are some, but they are few and far between.It is not a game of defense at high level.It is a game of offense and healing. One has to disable/kill/drive away the 30th level Dragon extremely quickly because the Dragon is going to hit with many of his against non-AC defense attacks most of the time when he uses them.Most every low Will PC will be stunned via Frightful Presence, most every low Reflex PC will be damaged via its Breath Weapon (most PCs for 1/6th or more of their hit points), some PCs will be damaged by Inferno, all in round one.The Dragon also has 1390 hit points. It can ignore Divine Challenge and/or Combat Challenge for a long time and target the squishier PCs.</blockquote>
