Anyone know of any way to reduce dragons damage scaling with the skill in VIII?I've been playing the merge and wanted to take a dragon since there is a partial fix within it that uses the dragons melee when in range, which is excellent and works with Unarmed Skill, but their range attack is still ridiculous. 11-20 at skill level 1, and +1d10 per skill point. It quickly outplays everything else.
I've been playing with a workaround, removing the skill completely gives the base attack a flat 10 damage, and I've 'replaced' it by giving them Elemental magic and learning only projectile spells.
But even then, when out of SP they still fire x2 breath attacks a round stronger than a level 4 Fire Bolt. It evens out at high levels, 20 damage a round is more comparable to a weak bow user and wont make much of a dent in a mobs HP.
