Invincible Dragons?

Remove all ads!

Hello again. All right, I am sufficiently stuck. Do any of these dragons have weaknesses? I'm not even talking about Klauth. I'm talking about the one in the Snow Globe and the stupid Blue Dragon I'm supposed to "feed" to Klauth all in Chapter 3. They're all immune to every single one of my spells. I've tried shooting them with frostbite arrows and I miss every time (suits my elven character right...). My 2 animal companions die within seconds because of knock-down.

WHERE AM I GOING WRONG HERE?? HELP MEEEEE!!

Level 8 Druid, Level 4 Wizard, and Level 1 Rogue (stupid, I know)

 

Do you have a henchman? If you have Daelan or Grimgnaw, your life should not be too difficult.

Yes, both the dragons you mentioned have weaknesses. The white dragon in the snow globe is made significantly easier by restoring the amulet found just inside his cave. The dwarves and nymphs can help you with this.

I never found the blue dragon to be that difficult to begin with.

Your chosen combination of character classes may make things somewhat tough as none of the levels are advanced. Try buffing up your henchman as much as you can (barkskin/stoneskin, bull's strength, etc), summon an elemental and work like mad with your bow. Once the dragon's attention is focused away from you, move in for a sneak attack or two then retreat again. Ideally, stay behind your fighters both for protection and so can run in and heal them when the need arises.

Good luck!

 

All right, I killed the Blue Dragon. Took a good 4,000gp from me to do it, but I did it. Now I'm against the dragon in the snowglobe. I've got him to injured, but now I'm REALLY stuck. I've got Grimnaw like you suggested, but the dragon makes him fearful and he won't attack!! And you can't use the stone of recall in the snowglobe so if he dies, I gotta run all around the map, back through the inn and into the temple. It's INSANE. Not only that, but the dragon has me backed up to the door of the cave so I can't get out of the way. My attacks do nothing because they are sneak attacks and the dragon is immune to them. Spells don't work. Poison doesn't work. Acid doesn't work. I'm REALLY STUCK.

So, here are my questions:
What spell, etc. makes people "unfearful?"
How do I summon an elemental? I don't have any spells for it. Where can I get one?
What should I do to kill this dragon?

 

The spells dispel magic and lesser dispel should remove the fear. Try using resistance spells (energy buffer etc.) to protect from breath weapons. I managed to beat all the dragons in a few seconds with my straight druid, using only the spell harm. Unfortunately, you probably don't know harm, so perhaps you should try some lower level inflict spells.

 

The two corrupted silvers can be killed with time stop and a couple of spells.

 

Anyway, in NWN dragons can be killed too, the only thing you have to check are your protections and use your feats well. Henchmen are almost mandatory, as they make for another target, as well as an aid. Use haste and try to stay away of his wings and breath. Missile weapons are best for this job.

"Finger of death" works good at high levels also. But not sure what duid has access too..
