Ender Dragon
The final boss of Craftics — a multi-phase spectacle with End Crystals, dragon breath, and escalating destruction. Defeating the Ender Dragon unlocks New Game+.
The Ender Dragon is fought in the Dragon’s Nest at the end of The End dimension. Two End Crystals heal it continuously, forcing a multi-target priority puzzle. Its massive 3×3 body dominates the arena, and its attacks cover wide swaths of ground with lingering fire.
Abilities
- End Crystal Shield (passive): 2 End Crystals (8 HP each) spawn at random arena edges at fight start. Each active crystal regenerates the Dragon 3 HP per turn. Crystals must be destroyed as priority targets.
- Swoop (Phase 1): Flies up to 4 tiles in a cardinal line, dealing full ATK damage to everything in the path.
- Dragon Breath Pool: After a Swoop, leaves a 3×3 lingering damage zone at the landing point for 3 turns, dealing fire damage to anything inside.
- Wing Gust: Pushes all entities 2 tiles away from the Dragon. Used when the player is adjacent.
- Summon Endermites: Calls 3–4 Endermites (3 HP / 2 ATK / Speed 3) every 4 turns as swarm fodder.
Phase 2 — “Dragon’s Fury”
Triggers at ≤ 50% HP. Destroyed End Crystals respawn once (must destroy them twice total). Dragon Breath Pools become permanent. Wing Gust pushes 3 tiles. Swoop attacks leave fire tiles along the flight path. Every 5 turns the Dragon perches on an arena edge and unleashes a full-width breath attack covering an entire row or column — the signature dodging moment. Fury Charge replaces Swoop: charges 4 tiles + AoE radius 2 + applies Weakness.
Strategy
Destroy both End Crystals first or the Dragon out-heals you (6 HP/turn from 2 crystals). Dragon Breath Pools deny large sections of the arena, so keep track of where they land before repositioning. When you see the Dragon perch in Phase 2, immediately move off its row or column. Phase 2 crystal respawn means 4 total crystal kills are required.
