Well, if the dragon's stats would be similar to the Dragon Scale set, I see a boss battle that would probably be all about normaling it out. If it had pierce and elemental resistance, the ever praised and worshiped Blitz Needle and Brandish line would be ineffective.

Dragon Scale, why don't you have shadow resistance? Then even the Gran Faust and Acheron would be ineffective. The only good weapons to fight the dragons would be Pepperboxes, Caliburs, Blast Bombs, and Troikas! All the weapons that only 4 people use! (3 including me and my other 3 knights. Who knows who that 4 is).

If this was the case, I'd love to see some kind of dragon in the game. After all, we have dragon scales and the armor for it, where are the actual dragons?

You forget that even if the specialized weapons are weak against mobs (Blitz Needle on Constructs, Acheron on Fiends), they're still better than normal damage weapons. I think I remember seeing someone complaining that Acheron is still better than a Sudaruska/Triglav to deal with Fiends. And it wouldn't surprise me in the least if a Blitz Needle killed Constructs faster than a Volcanic Pepperbox.

Which is unfortunate because I really like the two Troika lines, Volcanic Pepperbox and other underused weapons. Hell, even the Leviathan Blade is fun to use. But of course they all go into the category of "I'll use you when I feel like messing around with friends" section of my Arsenal because of the ever OP Brandish/Blitz combo. Otherwise I feel pretty useless in parties :T
