Lmao! They couldn't figure out that magic protection weakens the dragon attack? I sprinted threw there using like 3 limited heal potions.
Levels really do make a difference in this game. It's hard coded into the game, because using the same bow on a specific "fuzzy" boss that was level 22 did different damage. I didn't raise dex, just str which doesn't effect range damage.
The must have found that "fuzzy" boss pretty early to be 1 hit killed. That thing is more like level 28 then 22.
