*When the Dragon flies up to use '''Aerial Dragon Fire''', that is a signal to run to the furthest left platform in order to avoid getting burnt by the insane flames. Then quickly run back to the furthest right platform once the flames have died down.<br/>

*When the Dragon is about to do use '''Dragon Fire''', run to the middle battlefield and stick to the right wall, to avoid getting roasted. Another more advanced tactic is to jump over the ledge just after the Dragon slams its claw down and breathes fire, enabling you get some hits in while the Dragon's body is stretched out. This is useful for skills with wide hitboxes such as [[Valkyrie's Javelin]], noted [[Rising Slash]], noted [[Flying Impact]], etc. If you attempt this tactic, your timing must be perfect.<br/>

*The Shock element proves very useful with this boss, as it creates windows of opportunities for attacking and also resets the Dragon if he is about to attack. Aisha's [[Binding Circle]] is also effective.<br/>
**Ravens may instead run against the right side of the platform and the dragon will just barely miss him with it's initial launching attack.
**Renas may do a slide kick against the platform or double jump over the dragon's head for the same purpose, timing must be perfect.
**An option every class has to avoid the launch is to run against the same platform and use a skill\awakening for invincibility frames just outside the range where it will skill delay the dragon.  This will allow players to remain in position to attack during '''Dragon Fire'''.

*It is best to mana-break (hold Z up to 100MP) if you are hit by his combo attacks, such as '''Dragon Fire''' and '''Aerial Dragon Fire''', to minimize the damage you receive.

*Large AoE moves such as [[Dimension Link Guardian]], [[Gungnir]], [[Meteor Shower]], [[Plasma Cutter]], and [[Aceldama]] work very well against this boss.[[Dimension Link Guardian]] can wreak absolute havoc when the boss is using his '''Dragon Fire''' attack. [[Blizzard Shower]] can be somewhat useful as well.
*Large AoE moves such as [[Dimension Link Guardian]], [[Gungnir]], [[Nuclear]], [[Valkyrie's Javelin]], [[Sword Fire]], [[Crescent Kick]], [[Meteor Shower]], [[Blizzard Shower]], and [[Aceldama]] work very well against this boss. Most of these are especially effective when the boss is using his '''Dragon Fire''' attack.
*Ravens can use [[Burning Rush]] to stay in place whenever the Dragon attacks, and then follow up with [[Valkyrie's Javelin]] for the damage. It can help prevent you from getting hit by '''Dragon Fire''' and his other moves which throw you.(In NA this has been patched. Meaning you will still stay in place, but will still receive damage from the dragon.)

**Elswords may use [[Stoic]] for the same purpose.
*A simple effective strategy to defeat it in a party is to stun-lock the dragon, denying it any opportunity to attack until it dies.
**A [[Combat Ranger]]'s [[Low Kick]], Nature enchanted weapons, and other Attack Speed lowering effects make keeping the dragon stun-locked much easier as Attack Speed is also responsible for the speed in recovering from hit stun.
