It's hard to imagine a Dungeons & Dragons campaign that doesn't feature at least one dragon, considering that they are in the name of the game. The less experienced adventuring parties are usually excited to fight a dragon, as they are dreaming about all of the awesome treasure that they will be able to claim from its hoard. A dragon in the hands of an experienced dungeon master will soon show them the error of their ways, as a dragon can utterly destroy a party if it uses smart tactics. There is a good reason why dragons are part of the name of the game and why they have the best treasure, as they are often the most challenging foes of all. The only reason why most campaign worlds in Dungeons & Dragons haven't been taken over by dragons is due to their lack of a union. Dragons are all about sleeping on piles of coins and trying to rule the world would interfere with their nap time. If an adventuring party is to have any hope of defeating a dragon, then they will need to use some preparation and tactics of their own. A party that just runs in and hopes for the best will soon find themselves on the business end of a breath weapon or a claw the size of an Escalade, and the adventure will end with the party in a dragon's belly. We are here today to reveal the tactics and tricks that players can use to defeat dragons in Dungeons & Dragons - from the importance of location to relying on one of the cheapest spells in the game.
