The fight

Mechanics

Drakes use ranged and a ranged-based melee attack, and Protect from Missiles blocks the ranged hit.

After seven attacks they breathe fire that hits 6-8 four times. Step one tile as it launches and it misses, or dragonfire protection drops it to 3-4. With missiles prayer and dragonfire protection you can take no damage. The superior version has a special that stuns you unless you get out of melee range.

Which style: Melee, ranged or magic.
