Is it me or should I level?

I'm level 63, playing Episode II, Very Hard as my difficulty fighting Sol Dragon (Or is it gol?). I'm having a bit of trouble killing it, I've failed 5 times now.. It's not like the damage is too bad at level 63, but I've never survived being frozen. Will raising my EIC prevent freeze? It's really a bugger being frozen.

Thwaded? Thawed? Is it? Im confused...<p>NEwayz, mechs work well on Gol. I use Mechs for almost every boss, they do most damage. :)

Episode II can be hard at that level in Very Hard. It's still possible, though.<p>To add to what Demi said, a Force should use Barta Techniques on him. Zonde when in the air.

My HUmar beat the dragon in VH on level 60 I believe. When he doubles himself is when I had the most problems, took me a couple of trys to beat him. Just keep at it, and learn his moves well.

I like when he tripples. Gives a bit of a challenge.

ya, it can be fun, until you've killed off both clones, then 2 more show up and you kill both them, then do that one more time before actually getting the real one. thats the annoying part.

<blockquote><i>Originally posted by Benoit</i><p>Unless you hit the real one. ;)<br></blockquote><p> Whazamableh?? REAL one? So you mean if I follow the "Real" one I could finish the battle without killing 3 clones? By now I'm level 70, but I'm obsessed with ultimate so it'll be a long long while before I go back to VH.

Yes, that's right. It happened often to me that I was hitting the real one directly or after 1 clone, thus killing it. :)
