    Exclamation All the "New" Dragons. They need fixed.

    Who loves no-save abilities? I meant tahts what we all beeen asking for when we think "awesome new dragon tech" we saw fernando talkin bout in those exciting motu previs videos ya?

    Every "new" style dragon has very unfair annoying no save abilities:
    "SHOCK AND AWE" (yes its written in all caps like that in the game too) - No save knockback+ Snare. (Also knocks you down as if that wasnt enough, tho KD portion allows a balance check to negate).
    Noticed it did one more thing, -25% fortification. Again - no save. ~15 second duration and it's spammed often enough that you can expect to have that debuff on your melee 100% of the fight. (or 0% of you use ranged/spellcasting , as the dragons AI isn't good enough to reach you)
    Wing Buffet - No save knockback.

    Please no. Add saves. Thankyous. I'm not asking for this because I want an easy fight, I'm asking because they are annoying mechanics that unfairly penalize melee and not ranged at all. The Dragons ranged abilities are all very weak, all have saves, and none slow you or do anything else to help the dragon close to gap on you while you kite him.

    /Sign unless you love no save abilities that unfairly punish the least powerful classes, and you dont like puppies.

    Update from final patch before live:
    -A save was added the wing buffet knockback. Thankyou. (Strength or Dex, whatevers higher, DC is VERY high)
    -Shock and Awe remains unfairly punitive against melee, and the dragons remain trivial to fight on ranged characters.
