[QUOTE="kirinke, post: 1649096, member: 15409"] Locate the lair. Avoid the shadow dragon. Then go find a bigger dragon, bribe him or her with lots of sparkly things and sic said dragon on shadow dragon. While they are otherwise occupied loot the shadow dragon's treasure horde. :cool: Welll.... On a more serious note do some major scouting, locate it its lair and stay low until you acess it's capabilities. Once you do, trap it inside the lair. Heck, if you have it, use a horn of blasting to collaspe whatever lair its in on top of it. If you can't here are some more helpful hints. Polymorph is your friend. By now, you guys should have access to it. Use it. Change into a half-way ghost-like creature and start going in and out with your swords. Should be fun. Um, Cones of cold, Flame strike, bless, and summon nature's ally are also fun spells. Baleful polymorph the shadow-dragon into a squirrel if you can. Then roast it. Hold monster, the various summon monster spells, stock up on healing potions and wands. Basically, stay as far away from the dragon as possible and hit it with as many varied attacks as you can. Confuse the heck out of it. Heck, throw rocks at him. Gusts of wind. the various wall spells. Drop a fire wall on its head. All are good tactics. Never, ever go into a fight with a dragon half-prepared. If you can, buy lots of dragon-slaying related gear and weapons. Hire mage and cleric cohorts/hechment to supplement whatever magicker's you have. You will need them. [/QUOTE]
