I haven't bothered to get further. I'm taking it slow on this game so that I don't beat it too fast.

oh yeah, Anonymus, you have to melee his purple ball and it gives you TONS of fury. Repeat until you have full Fury. go into fury mode, and(with either dragon)use fury breath and dodge his attacks his health seems to drain out. when it is empty,follow button instructions. Also, wanderist , have u made it past destroyer?
