I usually rescue him when I'm third or fourth level. If rescuing him takes you somewhere you have to face tough monsters, it would be reason to wait, which would be a good thing.
I'm still working on getting my dragon to work correctly, strategy.tab style i'm not quite there yet - the breath weapon does too many damage dice - 15d6 (should be 6d6) and he repeats it 3 rounds running [I think I know what I did wrong - I flagged him to cast highest] before casting other spells repeatedly, but as an Adult white dragon he is CR9 about 186 hit points DR5/magic SR18 6 attacks a round (which all hurt a lot with his 23 strength!) but fighting him will be a quest you can (but don't NEED to) do.
Forgot to tell u, the secret ladder worked fine for me, had a low level rogue who came out the other end without noticing it was there, did a concentrated search and there it was
Excelent, don't suppose you had any trouble finding the secret ladder in the chapple did you? I think the dc is set to 0!
Hey Ted, do you want to get your but handed back to you on a plate by a white scaley monster with bad breath? My dragon still needs a little fine tuning but give it a go (I think the dragon's protos is in with yours already it's number 14999) Drop the .mobs i've included into caravan map (modules/allyx/maps/caravan) Then game.fade_and_teleport (0,0,0,5123,460,484) The other files you'll need too (I have now added ted's latest changes to my protos) Oh and don't forget to give him the mouthwash!
mouthwash...to a DRAGON? what next? cook for him and then nicely put him to sleep(and make sure you're not the one being cooked)
I'll give this a go first thing tomorrow. You mean my 2nd level party will lose? (I had them up to 3rd lvl, but the save got corrupted <sigh>)
you might want to use the console to "levelup" to at least 9th level first [he's a bit tough] Oh Agetian has been having problems with the files I uploaded here, so I re-uploaded my current (hopefully) working files to the ftp. You might want to get it from there.
Unfortunately I can't make him take MORE damage on a failed save vs fire damage, but he's immune to cold and has DR5/magic and SR18.
If you can get your crafter up to 12th level and give him/her forge ring you can (with the right prerequisite spell) craft a major ring of cold resistance which will help you a lot.
