Not so great Greater Dragons

Yeah, that whole canyon is kinda fun. You'll also find acid and poison eles in their own little areas, as well as a nightmare spawn. Getting a rez if you're going solo and die is a bit of a pain. You can help stuck out, or run back through the Ankh Dungeon to entrance A and use the Fountain of Life there to rez, or go back to entrance D of the Ankh Dungeon and maybe get lucky and find a gypsy camp nearby. Or go to the bottom of the canyon and exit through E. Somewhere in that area is the Tree of Life, but it's often kind of surrounded by more elemental spawn.

Your missing the other poster's point. Pre Tram. Both locations you mentioned you'd never think of going alone. I remember befor tram it was insane to go into destard alone. And D temple...forget it...I remember killing my first drake alone. Took me awhile at GM skills..now most people can two or three hit kill one and not lose any HP. All EA has done is make it challenging again. I say yay to that. As for working skill....stick to monsters at your skill level maybe? If you know the fire is hot....don't touch it.

I think people have some very warped memories of Pre-Trammel, considering that not only would people consider going there alone, people would consider going all the way down to Destard 3 and fighting the Ancient Wyrm all by themselves -- at least until they beefed him up a little bit. But even then, they were not so bad if you were prepared. It was nice when they made ancient wyrms a lot more difficult.
