[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 8661785, member: 6855114"] Simple, the dragon was using flyby attack pattern while it's breath was recharging. And it recharged only three time in 24 rounds. I was very unlucky with it. Anyway, a dragon will not turn around easily so it used its only magic missile to kill the wizard while the cleric was down and the barb was trying to put Keogtom's ointment on her. The second wizard had fell too and the group was now relying on torches to see the dragon. Allowing him to use a bonus action to hide in the shadows between attack rounds. It even took time to get the bodies further away to avoid reviving spells from the cleric. Result three dead, three very exhausted PC and the dragon was hurt enough to flee to get back. Characters had to retrace their steps to a smaller tunel where the dragon would be hard pressed to fit. The dragon almost caught them before they could reach it but they got lucky and they entered the 5 feet tunnel with the almost fully healed dragon attacking them with its breath weapon. If they had taken a day's rest aka long rest, they would have been killed for good. But they had the good idea of fleeing right now but it also meant going in the fleeing dragon direction to get to the small tunnel. [/QUOTE]
