dragon help

[moston kid]

im stuck on the dragon boss the one after riku the first time help me before i throw my game (oh yeah is leval 46 for sora 49 for goofy and 45 for donald ok)

[DJZen]

Level up a bunch. I don't remember what a good level is for the Dragon but she's pretty tough. Have Donald cast a lot of Cure and Aero spells, and make sure you do the same. Goofy and Donald tend to get KO'd a lot in this fight. Aero reduces damage from the green flames (which you might be able to further protect yourself from with Firaga ring, but I'm not sure, they might be darkness based) and try to keep Aero and Cure hotkeyed. Other than that, keep your distance when you get low on health since she only sprays fire close by. Rush in and attack when the coast is clear. Remember to re-cast Aero and keep your health above 30%. Good abilities to have during this are Second Chance, MP Haste and MP Rage. I also glide out of the area when she starts spraying fire around.

-Edit
Wait, you're not talking about Behemoth, are you? Arg...

Behemoth is easy, just climb onto his back from behind, keep casting Aero and Cure, and hammer away at his horn (it's his one weak spot). When he falls down, stand on the ground in front of him and hit him a lot.

[moston kid]

u was right the first time but wot level i've got it down to the green life but when im about to use cura it stomps it feet the weapon i've got for sora is metal chocobo for goofy herc's sheild for donald i've got the the one in the coloseum with white trinty are they okay

[Phil]

So you have hercs sheild, why not use the Olympia keyblade? Then donald has the Violetta- kill wizard foes. They drop wizards relics which increase mp by 2. To kill the dragon jump on her back and use strike raid (gotten by beating leon and yuffie). Press x at the right time to throw the keyblade several times. *Press x when its back at your hand but not in your hand*. By doing this, the dragon should be defeated and you wont loose a lot of hp, plus her attacks miss you. The floor is a dangerous place- only try to stay down there for a short while. If you run out of mp, use elixirs, and if you have none, than stand under the dragons head and attack like wildfire. By doing this, you should beat her with ease.:D

[moston kid]

beat her i just used aero and just kept on hitting it i don't use the olympia because it ain't powerful the metal chocbo is better (i didn't know what aero did now i know)

[Lord Xehanort]

Metal Chocobo drops your MP by one, thus reducing healing capabilities.

To make this battle easy, just summon Tinkerbell. As well as any other boss fight... except in the Coloseum.

[DJZen]

I had no idea you could jump on her back...

I guess this just proves that I'm Fighter. "Hey, I have a plan! It involves swords and using them to kill things!"

[moston kid]

i don't need all that much magic i just used areo and kept on hitting it was easy once i knew what areo did i don't use the metal chocobo any more i use the divine rose rikku 2 was easy i didn't even restore my hp and it was half way

that's how i did it-you don't even need to jump on her back.

[eternalshiva]

Try to have all your spells at level -ga, it help a load, Tinkerbell is uber in this fight and things are way fun with your weapons special abilitis Arts Arcanum and all those other combos! woOt! Climb on her back when ever possible, you avoid unecessary damage and use glide, GLIDE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! when she uber attacks the group. Good luck ^_^ I died like 20 times and threw things around the room before this worked for me.

And run a helluv a lot. 0.o I kept dying until I figured out that you don't just go and attack her (which was...about the 20th time!)

In theory, the -ga spells would be useful, expect you can't have any -ga spells at this point in the game. :love: However, getting on the dragon's back is a good idea.

If you feel lucky, you can attempt to dodge the dragon's massive array of attacks and attack the head whenever possible. It's doable, but tricky. For the love of god summon Tinkerbell. And, if you want an easy-ish way, get on the dragon's back and perform a series of Strike Raids until you run out of MP. And, to reiterate, GLIDE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!

[square_is_the_best]

Here is the number one sissy way. I used it...

Have all ethers. Jump up onto one of the vines around the arena. Summon Tinkerbell. Let goofy have mp haste and rage and gift. Then let goofy and donald take care of the dragon. You will be healed every so often but youll have to heal the others sometimes. Goofy and Donald will never kill a boss. So all you have to do is deal the finishing blow. Staying on the vines protects you from all attacks except the green fireballs. Just run back and forth to avoid em.

[eternalshiva]

*snorts* I'm pretty sure I had some -ga spells ;p I had most of the side quests done by the time I ubered over there. Why do you live to irk me Seed! WHY~! :love:

[Ouch!]

I'd go with Ansem on this one. I just summoned Tinkerbell, made the fight a breeze. I think I was in my early fourties when I did it.

[Michiru]

I suggest you cast Aeroa, make sure you have plenty of items too, then keep attacking the dragon. Don't worry about damage, as the spell will lessen it, just strike the dragon and keep on doing so until the spell wares off.

[MoonZapdos]

Dragon Maleficient is a little hard but not that much.
You only need three things for the battle:
1. Aeroa
2. Tinker Bell
3. Your best keychain (probably Olympia)


*snorts* I'm pretty sure I had some -ga spells ;p I had most of the side quests done by the time I ubered over there. Why do you live to irk me Seed! WHY~! :love:

Wrong. You can't have -ga spells before you beat that dragon scum.
*don't hurt me* :(

[Lord Xehanort]

I'll hop on the bandwagon: you're wrong, eternalshiva!!!!!!11!!!!!!

[SeeDRankLou]

Hey hey hey, the title of this thread is not "Trample on eternalshiva." She was incorrect about one of the several suggestions she made, lets not concentrate on the one fault in her strategy and rather merely point it out and focus on the good things that she has said.


Why do you live to irk me Seed! WHY~! :love:

I haven't seen Flying Mullet do it lately and I didn't want to mess up the rhythm in your life, so I was just trying to help :tongue:

[eternalshiva]

BAH! Simple mistake! Let's not all gang up on the Site Staff please... I haven't played this game in well over a year, my memory is a little fuzzy >.<

[Jalbrean]

Haha. I'm amused. Eternalshiva got owned.

I never did think to climb on the dragons back. I always stayed right underneath it's head and beat the hell out of it. Never had a problem.

[Chibi Youkai]

I think all I did was jump on her back, and when I got thrown off and forgot to glide, ran around furiously casting ice spells, and using ars arcanum. Worked for me, I never did use summons of any type or aero spells. Never saw the use for them.

[Flying Mullet]

:beer:

[Trumpet Thief]

One of my strategies was to hide behind the pipes when she Summons fire to shoot at you. Other than that, get the Olympia Keyblade, and use Tinkerbell, she was the one that kept me alive during that battle.

[Bahumat]

As above. first, though, i summoned everything exept Bambi (Tink Last) and then just beat the stuffing out of the dragon.

[StarlightAngel]

I tried jumping on it's back at the beginning of the fight tillI just gave up on that and attacked it from the front. Just keep your life fairly high and hack the crap out of it. :D

[mr. anderson]

i kept on dieing until i realized that i could jump on its back. then use ars arcanum and ethers until its dead

[DJZen]

That's a good way to use up ethers quickly..... I always just go nuts with the keyblade, even in my magic+ sword- game.
