The Blue Dragon from Dungeons and Dragons Online - Image 1Don't let the title of this article confuse you, but just to be clear, this isn't about the U.S. bound Xbox 360 game, Blue Dragon. This is about Dungeons and Dragons Online's Blue Dragon. Crystal clear? Alrighty, onto the report. Going over DDO's website, they have posted a monster profile of The Blue Dragon - one of the most intelligent and dangerous of the dragons.

In combat, this beast uses its breath weapon which is a powerful line lightning. Couple that with precision, fearsome bit and claw attacks and players are surely in deep water. This creature possesses the usual dragon qualities such as immunity to sleep and paralysis. They are also immune to electricity.

Most of the time, they could be found in arid desert areas and often use hallucination inducing spell-like abilities to punish and confuse trespassers. See, not only could they inflict serious physical damage, they could also toy with your mind.

With that said, planning to duel with a dragon a la Beowulf is extremely difficult. Aside from the fact that they are strong and intelligent adversaries, the dragonkind is very diverse - which means every dragon has different strengths and weaknesses. All we could say is prepare for the worst.

Dungeons and Dragons Online - Image 1


Just a quick heads-up for the for Dungeons and Dragons Online (DDO) gamers as we announce another round of game updates. This list will be dealing with the Training Academy's release notes, with the first order of business discussing the revamped enhancements system.


As Samera explained, the enhancements overhaul allowed players to keep their old enhancements even as they spent action points for newer enhancements. This in turn meant that players now will not have to "unslot" old enhancements to make room for the new sets. Players will no longer be limited to four slots, and will now be able to branch out to more enhancements lines as compared to before.

Now, in case this sounds confusing, there was also the assurance that familiar enhancements would remain in some form. Players who are worried about building around a specific set of enhancements can rest easy knowing that the newer sets should contain characteristics they're familiar with, hence are easy to use.

Accordingly, players will find that upon logging in, their current enhancements will be wiped, with an appropriate amount of action points being returned, ready for their next session with the trainer.

Lastly, there's the matter of the new enhancements available for use. "Enhancements that improve a cleric’s turning ability, give extra uses per day of action boosts, or allow spellcasters to use wands to greater effect for example," as Samera said.


You can view the New Enhancement System list when once you click Via.
