I felt myself like I mined a rock with a pickaxe, so many hits and no result...
Dragons are boring.
Actually, I was a proficient spearman and competent shield user, so nothing special. I just made the dragon to feel pain, gouged its eye and stroke him about thousand times with my spear. At last I manage to hit him in the head, breaking his fangs and piercong his brain.
P.S. My comments on this:
The Toady should definitely raise the pain threshold (or make it a raw parameter) for dragons, for now I can disable one just by twisting a spear in it's leg (4-5 times), though it's very hard to pierce it's armor.
Also shield blocking is overpowered too, it should be lowered. I blocked most attacks, though I wasn't too cool in shield using.

Everything above is jus my opinion (just in a case :)).

You could cut the innuendo with a knife.
Forget cutting the Inuendo with a knife... we could shovel it to power 12 city blocks
[EDIT] Draco18s, can you explain me your sarcasm? What was the main meaning of your post, what did you want me to get from your words?

Rampant sexual innuendo.
What I meant was that I think that for a dragon battle you are actually supposed to rely on your shield, that it is your only line of defense and fighting a dragon without such is suicide.
Though I think your battle was either glitchy or a huge fluke... but then again I have yet to actually see a dragon in Adventure mode.
If there is anything your video truely tells me needs to be balanced... it is Wrestling and its godly Eye gouging attack that when executed properly means instant victory. Without such your chance of survival would have greatly been reduced.
