Wind Breath	The Dragon can spurt a huge gust of wind which not only causes great damage but blows you back to the edge of the arena. Step to the side when you see him rear up to breath.
Petrify Breath	This attack won't do any damage, but it will petrify you for a decent amount of time leaving you completely open to other attacks. Like above, step to the side to avoid this attack when he rears up.
Poison Breath	Unlike the previous two breath types, the Dragon can drag this deadly trail across the entire arena...almost. When you see him thrust out the gas, rush to the opposite side of the platform and pray that it doesn't reach you. If caught, not only will it damage you, but it will poison you as well.

Later Cycles: The Dragon doesn't earn itself any new attacks in later cycles, but it does get faster and stronger with each cycle. Furthermore, the Stone Sagahins are greater in number and pop up out of the water more often making this battle that much tougher. Be quick on the Gravity and Holy spells to see you through the fight.
