[QUOTE="LostSoul, post: 4881062, member: 386"] I have recently run a couple of fights against a black dragon. The first one was tough since there were only 4 PCs and the dragon had some help. He used his cloud to avoid attacks and put the acid down on the PCs when he could. This was more-or-less a TPK (one PC got a 20 on his death save and fled). The second fight was different. The melee PCs had potions of acid resistance (4 were avaliable at the shop, rolled randomly on 1d6); they charged him in his cloud, pinned him into a corner, and pushed him out. He couldn't do much damage thanks to the acid, ended up dazed and slowed a few times (so unable to use his cloud of darkness), and had to spend an AP to get away from the death that flanked him. He died shortly after that. If they hadn't had those potions it would have been closer. Probably more exciting, though the killing of the dragon was still a good fight. Based on that I'd say the dragon is fine. [/QUOTE]
