What's the best( dragon tactics edition)
Hey guys
What are the best weapons, dragons and Armour for dragon tactics.
I actually tank my viking and have a frozen chieftain sword that does more damage than any crushing weapon (also stat rerolled for boosted damage). I focus on bulking my viking's health. This works well because I can send my viking in to gather up a couple of enemies and then literally sweeping them in one turn. I have alongside me a Titan Stormcutter as another tank and healer, and it serves as protection for my viking if my viking gets into trouble, and a Titan Woolly Howl to snipe faraway enemies and buff its firepower to OHKO strong enemies. All are level 50. Other useful dragons are Titan Skrills, which can be used to both snipe and nuke if/when surrounded, a Prickleboggle (the godsend healer), and Pouncer. Personally I just can't use Pouncer correctly...or maybe my current dragons comprise a better team without him.
Depends on your playstyle.
I find that crushing weapons, namely axes work really well. Stack attack power and crit chance and you'll be able to oneshot pretty much anything. Health and dodge can be convenient but are not necessary. The other stats are useless for this build. The best dragons are (imo) Pouncer and skrills.
All the weapons and armour I use are rare T3 drops.
I don't usually check stats, just their level, so I'll keep that in mind.
Stats are more important than tier or rarity, but so far I haven't had a single T2 piece that's better than T3. It's still best to compare stats, though!
I just checked the damage output. If buffed, it's about 2000-4000 (non-crit) depending on the attack. Not sure what's considered a lot of damage, but this is usually enough to oneshot most enemies.
Intense Defenders axe is the most powerful item in the game. Or it has been in my experience thus far. No other item even comes close to it in terms of just crushing force (sorta). And the heal option is very nice. Unfortunately, the most powerful item is also one of the ugliest items in the game. Well, I wouldn't say ugly so much as bland. It also lacks a long range attack which is annoying.
I recently traded it out for the Woolly Howl crossbow because it is the only other T3 Legendary item that can even hold a candle to the power of the Intense Defenders Axe, but even that comes in at 15ish points less damage on a regular strike.
But the better aesthetic and long range options are worth it.
I'm probably not the best to speak on dragons tbh because I just use my two highest level dragons in the game. I prioritize sheer damage than anything else. Toothless and my SnowWraith. I haven't really branched out from them and it isn't really worth it. Remember, higher dragon level, the more damage the dragon does.
My Snow Wraith is really nice because every single attack is long range. It also has a massive flight range. Like massive. But again, I haven't really experimented with the others.
Most of the Nightlights except Pouncer are useless. And those are basically the only other dragons I've played around fighting with.
As for Armour.... anything T3 Legendary is probably your best bet, especially if it's bewilderbeast. Just look at the stats and compare which are the most useful to you. Just because it's bewilderbeast, doesn't mean it's inherently better.
I know the nightlights are useless other than pouncer, but pouncer makes up for it. Also, do the defender axe and wooly howl crossbow do none than 850 damage , cause my mala's sword (t3 epic) does that much. Also, thanks about the Armour, I was going to go for the stormcutter ones, but I'll try to get both.
How much damage your weapon does depends on your viking level. So I can't tell you accurately how much more or less damage you will get out of those but I can guarantee that a teir 3 legendary will do more than an epic.
Last I checked the axe did 1.5k for me on a throw but that was a few viking levels ago so it's probably different now.
Here's my setup:
I use Grimmel's Crossbow(it's tier 3 Legendary, I got it playing the last Summarhildr DT level during Summarhildr but it can currently be found in the Runestone levels, I know for sure it can be found in the first Runestone level). The first attack is mid-range and deals 848 damage with a chance to deal 217 poison to the enemy for a couple turns. The second attack is long range and deals 1717 damage.(Note that the damage it deals is based on a few different things: my viking level, the armor I use, and I increased the stats on my armor and crossbow) It also has the heal feature. I use the Bright Stormcutter armor(tier 3 Legendary, found as blueprints in the Runestone levels)and also use the Thawfest Eret flightsuit to give me a bit more of a boost in 3 areas(I hide it though so I can see my Stormcutter armor). I usually use a titan Woolly Howl, titan Skrill, and Prickleboggle(Prickleboggle only for hard levels where I feel it would come in handy). All of them are level 50 and my viking is level 50 too.
(Just for fun I've also been working on getting a setup for using a sword(using the Dusk Sand Wraith armor)in case I ever want to switch just for fun. Grimmel's Crossbow, my Bright Stormcutter armor, and the Thawfest Eret flightsuit are my main setup though)
You should reroll your weapons and armor to get the stats that you want. Sometimes it takes a while for the stats to change but eventually they will. Once you get your desired stats you should then start increasing them. That's what I did. You may have to grind for shards because once you get down to a low percentage it'll take a while before the stat will increase.(sometimes the percentage isn't even that low and it takes a while)
Edit: I forgot to mention the shield I use. I use the Berk Champion shield(tier 3 Legendary, found in the Runestone levels)
Hey Angels_Demons!
You would not believe how many people have posed this question to me (and other more experienced) members over the years, because, to be quite frankly, it's a very good question! Unfortunately, and if you haven't discovered it by now, everyone has a different - if not wildly different - idea of the best weapons/armor to use. People do tend to be a bit more in agreement about which dragons to use, but I'll talk about that after the weapons/armor.
Weapon and Armor
With little to no exception, you'll want to go for a weapon with the horn added benefit (which should raise your dmg by 50% - not the one that raises your crit). This is because you want your avatar to be able to nuke enemies faster - the healing effect to make you tankier is not very helpful and ultimately can lead to your undoing. There are some weapons that have a higher dmg then those with the horn skill, but since they don't have the horn skill, their worth plummets considerably. The special skill your weapon has depends on the ELEMENT that weapon has and there are several elements with a few different special skills - I can't remember all the special skills and how they correlate with the elements but you can look that up in the SoD wiki that LPS has put together.
As for your particular weapon, that largely depends on your style. I don't need range since I'm more of a Leeroy Jenkins player, so I use a crushing chieftain sword with that nice frontal, aoe or the porcupine mace that does aoe for its first skill which is really handy. Experimentation will likely be needed to find the weapon for you, but ofc, always use t3 legendary weapons where possible.
As for your armor, there isn't much to say except that if you are using crossbows, you want to focus on getting a lot of firepower stat, if you are another weapon, you will want to have as little firepower stat in your wardrobe as possible since it'll then be useless. My best combination of armor looks pretty gross since it's a combo of several different sets and I just picked out the most op parts of each set.
Dragons
Once, again, depends on your fighting style, but typically op dragons like snow wraiths, deathsongs, furies (toothless/pouncer), hiddeous zipplebacks, flamewhippers, etc etc. Prickleboggles are nice to use on tough dungeons because they have powerful heals, and elder sentinels are good with their insane def so you can use them as a meat shield. (As a side note, hobgobblers are TERRIBLE - never use them)
If you have any other questions, feel free to pm me and I can get more into the details. However, this should definitely get you started.

I always use a T3 Lengendary armor and weapon. As for dragons, my orginals were, Titan Skrill, titan Flightmare, titan Whispering Death. I needed a healing dragon and he was the only one that was able to heal himself (at the time there wasn't many dragons that weren't avabile or I didn't have the dragon) Once the Deathsong was avabile in DT and a titan he replaced the Whispering Death.
Enlarge/reduce either on the dragon or whoever has proficiency in athletics and is decently tanky. Grapple and profit. The real beauty of it is that dragon can't attack and escape the grapple on the same turn unless it can quickly kill the grappler. Bonus points if you knock it prone so it has disadvantage on all attacks.
______________
Best Dragon: I recommend having a titan Deathsong. Why? Multi stun, good damage, and self heal. I was able to clear the higher levels easily when I had mine in my lineup. Another one is a Skrill because of the snipe ability and close range area of effect.
Weapon: I use the Dreadfall axe (can only be forged iirc) and it works well at least for me.
Armor: Can't answer this as I use racing armor for everything and it works, but I've seen other players buying sets specifically from the shop so that probably works better.
