**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/> | |||

==Trivia== | |||
Earlier versions of Ancient Bone Dragon did not have geysers in the center of the battlefield, it also used to have a stoic threshold where it would gain super armor after taking a certain number of hits to prevent players from stun-locking it. In that version Light element weapons would also reset its animation to its standing pose, negating any attack it was in the process of using. | |||
