osid: Yesterday was at work all day, missed gen 8 death. Visited him for last 2 weeks like 15-20 times. All I got for that - another Ascalon.
Are Ur-Dragon boss from original DD, right? Best sword from DD - Dragon's Dogma, strength 788 dragonforged, best sword from DA - Devilsbane, strength 1848 gold rarefied. If you climb on him and hit directly in hearts with skills like Hundred/Thousand Kisses or Dire/Deadly Gouge in full BBI tier 3 set, inshine DPS. Good pawns will also make a significant contribution. I think, someone forgot tune damage cap for PC version.
I did some estimates... I'm doing ~3120 per strike with hundred kisses (10100 if he is stunned and I apply str boosts, but that is rare). I don't know the rate but if it's 2 strikes per second, during 8 minute encounter that is still only slightly less than 3M damage. If he doesn't manage to shake me off and I don't have to relocate to other heart. My pawns are useless at doing damage, I usually only find game generated ones with unenhanced equipment. Wiki estimates the limit at 28-30m. If the problem is due to limit, someone screwed the PC (or GoG) version.
It's almost like they finished the game and said "guys, we have too awesome game for customer to bear, let's put few stupid mistakes in to compensate." Online Ur damage limit. Unable to sort inventory alphabetically (so that I have to spend few minutes at Montebank reading through descriptions). Only one save file.
Well, I already got my trophy, and the equipment he drops is subpar to BBI anyway, looks like correct course of action is to ignore him.
