Problem with my dragons

[RangerWickett]

Well, if the party is level X, a level X solo is usually pretty easy to handle. I put a level 11 party up against a level 12 dragon and they beat him down viciously.

Solos in 4e are just so vulnerable to negative conditions.

They got through Action Recovery/Instinctive X? Could you give some sort of battle report?

My PCs are only 7th-level, and even when they had a controller in the party they couldn't lock down solos that badly. I do hear that at paragon and epic it gets really bad though.
