the game
The Ancient Dragon boasts higher stats than the game's final boss. Eric and Noah will most likely not be ready
to take this beast on until they have gotten the gear from the final dungeon and perhaps some extra level-ups as well.
Defeating the Ancient Dragon gives the player a whopping 15,000 experience and gold. More important, it gives the
player the best armor and helmet available in the default RMVXA armor list. That third item is an accessory I created.
It grants +10 to all eight of a character's main stats, +5 EVA, +5 CRI, 20% Fire Resistance (expressed in the Database as
[Fire]*80%)
and 5 Attack Speed (AGI only applied during attacks). You can see the Ancient Dragon's Features and
Action Pattern lists in Figure
