Despite becoming the initial dragon most people encounter, the Fereldan Frostback could be very tough even for people who over-level on their own prior to the battle. This is mainly because her controlling the landscapes associated with fight in addition to calling dragonlings to assist the lady, the latter frequently swarming the people.

There are four phases associated with the fight:

Upon witnessing your party she will begin to sporadically bombard fireballs. The initial fireballs will undoubtedly be coming straight above you so make an effort to dodge them to get near the central spire. The dragon will change her path if you're far adequate in. Standing behind the spire will protect you from this brand new revolution of fireballs. You can also invest some hits with a mage or an archer. After several rounds, she's going to ultimately travel and secure next location (bloodstream high cliffs). If for some reason you might be caught off-guard by a wild fireball, you have time to throw barrier into the time the fireball takes to travel. Be aware that this area includes dragonlings who'll also attack you if they notice you.

• 2nd Stage. The dragon places inside bloodstream high cliffs location and also this is where the actual battle starts. Ensure you get your warrior in front of the dragon and all ranged users toward edges so far as possible from her. All dragons are resistant to taunting, therefore the only function to abilities such as War Cry or Challenge is always to produce guard. Rogues with daggers must be behind to maximize damage. Dragons have several targetable parts: dealing adequate harm to any leg will force the woman to leap to the other knee. As an example, when you hurt the left knee adequate she'll leap to her right. Whenever she does therefore, reposition your staff as before with only the warrior ahead.

Though she can't be taunted, she's going to nonetheless attack the celebration user with all the greatest hazard generation, in cases like this your warrior putting on heavy armor. Cast Barrier whenever possible on warrior or any user just who requires it many.

• 3rd Stage. Whenever you slashed her health to 75per cent, she's going to try the heavens once again, putting fireballs and breathing fire down a path. This attack is somewhat difficult in order to avoid as it is faster versus fireball and has now an extensive AoE, so it is a good idea to maintain your party on the road. She will land on a ledge and call dragonlings to attack you. Although you can used ranged attacks now, you need to consider killing the dragonlings to stop them harming your party. The dragon will go back to the field after killing most of the dragonlings in addition to battle will continue depending on the next phase. Taking the woman wellness down to ~50per cent will make her fly to a ledge and summon dragonlings once again. In this stage the dragon could use a roar that may stun your whole party for some seconds.

Note: If you are able to deal adequate harm at round the 75per cent point, e.g. with an archer dealing vital Long Shot or Comprehensive Draw damage with a powerful bow, then she's going to not remove or summon any dragonlings and can remain on the floor throughout the battle. It might probably help target the woman head, as adequate harm there will interrupt her attacks while making this lady forget exactly what she ended up being doing for a second.
