Even with a full 4 member team, Drakeula and his bats hurt so MUCH that within thirty seconds we are all dead. And within a minute the players leave one by one because of annoyance.


Can anyone tell me what is the best way to kill Drakeula?

I am going to guess you aren't endgame yet?
At end-game drakula is considerabally easier. Truly the only way to play at low level events is to invest 300k-1m to run thorough them easily. Ofc since the general population fo twinks don't solo, you rarely get a pt capable of taking down them.

Either way thes best way to take down drakula is have a tank aggro the bats, and then a mage time shift em. meanwhile everyone else try and focus only drakula

Don't know the best way ,but I do know how to survive longer as a mage. Stay as close as you can to drac. Also as stated above a warrior pulling agro and everyone throwing heals as much as possible. This is all my opinion of course .

Yep Drakeula aint so tough i solo it & myself have seen many rogues soloing it.
But, since last few days i witnessed tanks asking for help to kill him. It really is confusing, while rogues can kill drakeula solo with 0 deaths y is it hard fo tanks ???

I solo Drakeula with my level 8, 10 & 46 sorcerer, and I've never died. Only have died from para this event. I'm not sure how you are going about it, but your strategy is either flawed or you have really bad gear.

I just run circles around him and shoot with my gun and fire & lightning skills. I keep circling around him the whole time. Whenever I get hit and my health drops below 75%, I use a health potion. Usually it will take 5-10 health potions before I can kill him. I'm not sure of the best warrior strategy, but with warrior high armor and health, I don't see how he kills you. Do you use health potions? Horn? Heal yourself when you get hit and you won't die. It's not like he can one hit you or something. Even at end game he only hits for about 20% of my health.

what i can say about it is, drakeula relatively more difficult than last year,

because in this year, as a mage, you can't survive drakeula continuous normal hit combo (unavoidable) with just potions, if you're only using pink gears,

last year, i had no problem fighting him with necroptic or living armors

At endgame as well at twinks for a rogue it vry easy. I solo him when my pt leaves at twink lvl nd once i soloed him ( the other player was jst standing and watch :/)

What i do is exactly what energizeric said i circle him shot aimed nox pierce when i see redzone below me. Use heal packs when not stunned nd use potions when stuns..

If bats r too much i try going in front of him and shotting. It takes 20-30 sec to kill him.

My gears r dev pot, eerie bru, ancient pot set, frostbitten bru all grand fire gemmed. Nd water gemmed. Pet is slobber.. My twink is lvl 15.

Drak hits a lit harder in endgame bt nt that hard that it can one hit u.

I did say buy gud gears nd a good pet( slobber is cheap nw) nd kill him. :)

Its para who is hard this year. Though i think the mobs r more of a problen than para if u solo him.

I die when the mobs spawn. Para is easy i jst use kelvin bt die when mobs spawn :/ so ya overall he is hard.

The best way to kill it is to have atleast aoe skill and like wat the others are saying circle then nuke it its just a matter of phasing ur self. Im a twink 10 and i wud rather solo drak and para much more easier

I have 31 twink with perfect bow, myth and para ring and I find Draco ridiculously difficult, let alone Para, who knocks me down with his first attack.

I am thinking to proceed to 36, any experience on this level? The scaling is ridiculous - up to 15 it's a breeze and 31 is almost impossible.

Ya it is the same in all event 26-31 is the hardest lvl for events imo. Better make a endgame lvl 41+ player or a twink below lvl 20.

All event bosses are hard at the middle levels. That's due to the flawed scaling in this game. Things are much easier at endgame and at low twink levels.

Drakeula is a blood sucking boss and Paracelsus an ankh sucking boss.

the truth has been spoken.

Drak is hard anyway. lastyear, this year, it is hard. The only way to defeat him is to bring the sun to necropolis :-p. or maybe he will just glow.

750dmg 4k hp mage(not that good ik) spamming pots still cant kill drak solo...

Notice that the bats cannot go the entire distance of the Drakeula "arena" area. Bats from one side will reset if you go to the other side... (He spawns a max of 10 bats)

Notice that Drake does not charge if you stay close to him...

Notice that Drake's fuzzy bat thing stops moving about a second before it does the attack...

Notice that Drake is stunnable.

Notice that he does his coffin right after his fuzzy bat thing.

And yes, I hate Para dragon's skellies. Super annoying.

If u really have a problem killing him i would recommend to use necro nom nomicon.

Don't need to exaggerate xD I can solo on any class with 100k, at most, gear. Probably less too, a mage of mine even has rare armor and epic amulet.


I solo Drakeula with my level 8, 10 & 46 sorcerer, and I've never died. Only have died from para this event. I'm not sure how you are going about it, but your strategy is either flawed or you have really bad gear.

Do you use health potions? Horn? Heal yourself when you get hit and you won't die. It's not like he can one hit you or something. Even at end game he only hits for about 20% of my health.

Generally low level players, or people who are quite new to the game, can't always gear themselves up with good or half decent legendaries. I remember when I first started playing, that I only used the gear I picked up from mobs (I wanted to save up for that mysterious Leprechaun Pendant...), and just every boss was almost impossible to beat - no surprises here, lol.
I've pugged a lot with my 50k-100k "twinks" (I don't even want to call them like that, they don't deserve such a name), and around level 10-15, which is the level most of my non-endgame toons are, newbies really have a lot of trouble with Drakeula. People die a lot at Valko and Scourge, forget about Drak! Even with a Nomicon, the boss' difficulty is higher than, say, Ursoth's. I can't even solo Paracelsus, while I could kill Ursoth with all classes without breaking a sweat. What were endgame one hit kills didn't even bring me down to half health. Halloween's situation seems the opposite, endgame is easier than low level. Drakeula is now the equivalent of Ursoth, and Para is not feasible... For me, who reaches 140-150 dmg at most (with Nomicon). I find it unfair, a rare/epic player will have a lot of trouble to reach gold/plat tier, especially when you almost always get Drakeula in silver tier - how can you go higher if you leave at every Drak fight?

Yeah its hard to undergear player and mid level.....maybe stay in corner so bat only show up 3 not many....

Drakeula is just time consuming w/o his bats...

What level??
Usually at level 21+ their becomes a huge gap in scaling and bosses become significantly harder.

I'm sorry, I've only had experience with lower levels and had assumed they got easier the higher the level. The only experience I have is pretty much at lvl 10-15 and 46.

In my lv 15 rogue twink i can solo him but u need to kill bats before more of them spawns. Focus on drak and kill bats before they r too many to fight

Like Tat said, event are very hard for middle levels. Drakulla gets very tricky and hard when it stacks the bats.
The best bet would be kill those bats as soon as they appear. Easy and effective. always have a dps killing those bats as soon as they come.

Tricky way would be kill all bats except one bat. Take a bit time killing the last bat.
Reason: When you kill all the bats, Drakulla spawns another wave of bats.

In one word kill those bats. Dont go 'IGNORING BATS" and attack boss blindly. Bats can be very annoying. They damage you and perma stun you.

What I do for my low level and under geared rouge and sorc to survive Draco is by sticking with him. Because once u are in range with his red beam ur dead.
