    [​IMG] Am i the only one, or does this bug anyone Else..

    White Wyrm, 86xp.
    White Dragon, 87.

    White Dragon, for some unknown reason, Is noticably stronger, and larger than the White Wyrm in this game..

    Wyrms are supposed to be older, stronger, and larger than ordinary Dragons, and thus Origionally gave Much more exp. (12-18k, depending on type)

    So why are they making these Uber-Weak Dragons in this series?????

    Any thoughts or Insight for me?

    A dragon's age determines how much of a challenge it'll present to a party. Only the great wyrms (1,000s of years old and colossal sized) are meant to present a real challenge to high-level parties. If you use the Wilderness Lore skill in the White Dragon lair, it will reveal that they were 'adult' white dragons. Large sized, middle of the pack in age groupings.

    Add to this, White Dragons are the relatively weakest members of Dragonkind.

    A great wyrm Prismatic Dragon on the other hand, whoosh ...

    Right. Although I thought that the terms dragons and wyrms were basically interchangeable. An ancient red dragon would be lots of fun too. ;)
