Today we wiped 4 times at this particular boss (which ended our run) and there're a lot of issues with it:

- when it lifts off for flight phase you receive random damage out of nowhere
- there are no telegraphs for the outer ring (true for all dragons)
- you receive damage from the outer ring even if you're in the middle of the arena
- there's no telegraph for the dragon breath during flight phase (true for all dragons)

This battle is pure luck to survive, please have a look at it. Thanks.
I'm but a sarcastic beef jerky. Irony and cynicism are my parents. You've been warned.

    Yeah, the damage range for this is very off. The damage circle is ridiculous. I'm standing and I still get hit with the stupid outer ring damage.

    You have to keep an eye on him in the sky at all times to see what direction he's coming from and dodge out of is path. Which is fine, right? I mean, It's not like you're fighting a bunch of adds and avoiding ground AoE at that moment.

    I don't know about Laatvulon, but I think Yolnahkriin, at least, has the same flight path every time. But you definitely need to watch them the entire time, which is hard with the adds spawning.
    If I'm running with a companion, I always switch to a distance DPS or a healer companion for dragon fights. There's a slightly lower chance they'll not run into the center AoE and die instantly.

    The dragons still routinely wipe out my low-CP accounts. I agree, they, along with a few others (Thorn and Belain, The Warrior, Yandir, Baron Zaudrus, who ignores all companion taunts) are way over-tuned, especially on low arcs. Getting one of them means an end to low CP account runs, 95% of the time.

    Agreed. The long range of damage of the outer ring turns fighting this certain dragon into a lottery, this is not just right. :(
