mjo2138 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) Are there any? I have seen a Youtube clip of a dragon fight, but it looks more like a drake or baby dragon. I sure hope there are some epic Dragons! Edited May 17, 2018 by mjo2138 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wuthering20 Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 There's a machine dinosaur on Ukaizo, the final area. Its level is pretty high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1TTFFSSE Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 (edited) There's a machine dinosaur on Ukaizo, the final area. Its level is pretty high. what lvl is the machine dino actually? At lvl 16 party when I did it on PotD without much optimization prior it was a fairly nice fight - though once I figured I had to actually use healing abilities there and not steamroll it became manageable, just longer than the other fights. (compared to all the others in the game). but still it feels less strong than the dragons in PoE1 the drake fire dragon at magran's teeth was a joke though Edited May 17, 2018 by 1TTFFSSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazama Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Sea dragon under the watershaper's guild, fire dragon at Magran's Maw, and the mecha dragon guarding Ukaizo. None of them are as challenging as the POE 1 dragon encounters. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSaint Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 The dragons are basically low level content and for the majority of people you will encounter them VASTLY overleveled (not that they are hard at level). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katarack21 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 If it's not the dragons, then what is the hardest boss creature in the game? So far the most difficult fight I've had was with the Kraken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverSaint Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) If it's not the dragons, then what is the hardest boss creature in the game? So far the most difficult fight I've had was with the Kraken. I wouldn't even say its a boss and is instead the fight just before the initial crypt entrance of the Dampyr City, the multiple Elder Dampyrs in the cave by themselves, or the final boss if you fight everything at once (which I assume is intended) vs just staying out of range of multiple enemies so they dont agro.

mjo2138 Posted May 18, 2018 Author Share Posted May 18, 2018 I appreciate the developers idea to move away from o 'traditional' RPG narrative by moving away from RPG cliches like castles, forest maps, and Dragons. However, lets be honest. We all love RPGs so there is nothing wrong with a nice epic Dragon battle! I look forward to the Kraken battle. yet I think that there is ample room for a roaming epic dragon somewhere in Deadfire... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I struggled with the mecha dragon (still got it on the first try but it was close) but the magma dragon was laughably easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jastiger Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Is there anything like the Endless Trials where I can try harder fights after getting to max level? I find myself without any real challenges once I hit level 17 or so. Only 2 dragons? No high end bounties, no high end dungeons with super nice treasure?

Miro Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Nope there isn't, Nemnok with all his minions can be hard, when they come from 3 sides, but apart from that there's no real hard fight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jastiger Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Thats too bad. I enjoyed the game, but there isn't a lot of deep content this time around, at least not yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henners Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 If you are struggling with the "mecha dragon" I found a cheap way of outright killing it on my first attempt. It is a construct. There is a certain level 8 priest spell that instantly destroys this type of enemy. Yes, it works. I laughed at the screen for a good 30 seconds afterwards. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nokturnal Lex Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 There's a serious lack of bosses in this game period. The only one I even remember fighting is the giant Cave grub under Neketaka. (Which wasn't immune to dominate mind you.... meaning pretty easy fight) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I talked my way out of both dragon encounters. Any noteworthy loot?

I was like....oh...they didn't make him immune to this... da fug. I'm so used to bosses being immune to any sorta one shot thing it surprised me. Seriously onty did it on a whim. I reloaded though to see how hard he would be without doing it and still wasn't that tough. And his buddies dropped like minnows. Reminded me of the old Phoenix down trick from earlier FF games lol.

Might be an unpopular opinion, but I really like this kind of thing. It rewards you for knowing the mechanics. Pretty much any DnD based game has this kind of stuff in it, especially the old infinity engine games. Obsidian is quite fond of increasing encounter difficulty by giving tough enemies immunities across the board. That feels like a really cheap way to make an encounter difficult. You have all these well-designed mechanics in the game, and then you can't use them for the toughest fights just because. When I was fighting the dragons in Pillars 1, I found myself often thinking "well why do I even have all these spells, then? What's the point in unlocking high level Wizard/Priest/Druid/Chanter/Cipher spells if none of them work when I most need them?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, though in this particularly case there is certain amount or irony in using a priest, and therefore god granted, spell to instakill the guardian that moments before the gods have told you they are unable to influence..... Dismissal did become one of my favourite spells for late game exploration given the amount of undead hordes on some of the more remote islands. The only unexplained question I have is why it doesn't work on fampyrs - fampyrs, particularly ancient ones, became the only really threatening enemy towards the end due to their habit of charming your party members.

Probably just overlooked. I also noticed that Fampyrs don't care about Slippery Mind, which is supposed to give immunity to domination. They are the hardest enemies in the game imo just cause of how easily they charm everyone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
