A custom dragon creature created for my LOTR mod. I thought I'd share it upload it here so you all can try it out. It has a protective layer of breakable shells, giving you increased chances of actually damaging the dragon as you break more of them. The scales are covered in a protective adamantine shell to 80-97%, depending on which body part they're on. Shells on the legs are the weakest, followed by neck, lower- and upper body shells. The foot shells are second to hardest, and the head shells are the hardest. I also added a [FLIER] tag along with custom flying gaits.

Feature list:

- Body covered in severable scales, which in turn are covered in an adamantine shell. Sever scales to increase chances of actually damaging the body part.
- Non-scaly, hard-shelled feet & wings.
- Razor-sharp teeth & claws that rip through steel armour like nothing.
- Should be laying eggs that can hatch.
- High natural skills, which should evolve throughout worlgen.


Tips for fighting the dragon:
- Bring a shield. This is pretty much required for dragonhunting, seeing as it's the best way to not get scorched to death.
- Attack the wings and feet early on. While damaging these shouldn't kill the dragon, impairing these is much faster than killing the dragon, and will make escaping easier if the battle is not going in your favor.
- Don't target the upper body. This part is protected by a thick, impenetrable layer of scales (Fort mode, yay! ).
- Stay near a source of water. Killing a dragon takes a while, unless you've got candy weapons. Chances are you might catch fire.
- Be prepared to die unless you've got several legendary+ skills.
