Can You Kill the Lightning Dragon?

Can Be Damaged But Not Killed

At the burning city of Luoyang in the mission Centuries of Glory Burned Away, you'll come across the powerful lightning dragon, Xielong. This dragon periodically attacks the area around it with lightning.

It can be damaged, but can not be killed; when you damage its HP by a little bit below half, it will fly off and leave the area.

Repel the Dragon to Get an Achievement

While you won't get any rewards for fighting the dragon, damaging it enough to repel it will give the achievement, Heroes Will Rise.

To do this, we recommend to go up the tower near the flag in the area. This tower has a clear view of the dragon where it can be safely sniped, and a roof allowing you to stay safe from the lightning strikes. Attack the dragon with constant ranged attacks until its HP drops a little bit below half, and you'll get the achievement.
