[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 2880246, member: 29014"] Agreed. And planning is crucial for dragons. In my FtF game, which went from level 1 to 21, at about level 14 or so, one of the party members (who happened to be an azer and thus immune to fire) went after a red dragon known to be fairly weak and stupid, and he killed it by himself in a fair fight. Greedy for his own dragon hoard, the party Wizard researched until he learned about a canny red dragon who had killed a rival silver dragon and had not one but [I]two[/I hoards. He prepared his most powerful spells and entered the dragon's lair with near-total immunity to fire damage from spells. Eventually the dragon appeared. The wizard unleashed the most powerfully metamagicked volley of cones of colds that you have ever seen happen in a single round. The dragon had up Spell Turning :] The Wizard came back after the dragon to get back his lost gear. The dragon found out about this, and he prepared, catching the Wizard in an Antimagic Field and frying him to death. Later, at level 20, the heavily-buffed Frenzied Berserker died to the same dragon trying to get two hoards + the Wizard's stuff. That dragon defeated the party more than any of their enemies, even enemies about 10 CR higher than the dragon :lol:[/I] [/QUOTE]
