###Tips and Strategies - Nikao the Defiler is considered the second-easiest dragon in the Lair of Draconis, Limoz being the easiest. - Nikao is stationary to begin with, and this phase is easiest, as there are spots you can stand without getting hit, but the most dangerous phase of the fight is his charge phase. In this phase, he will shoot out armor break, sick, and weak shots, just to name a few, making it difficult to survive if he gets too close by removing any means of regeneration. He will also be harder to hit, as he moves quickly towards you and occasionally snaps back in the direction of the center of the room. - After enough damage has been done, his stationary phase will get slightly stronger, as there won't be a place to safely sit and shoot. If you get low, there will be walls that you can hide behind and regenerate. - As Nikao dies, he will say "Noooooo! This cannot be! I have underestimated your power...". However, you should still be cautious as some of his shots will turn to where he died at the end of their range, possibly causing him to deal extra damage after his death. [Back to top](#top)
