Might and Magic VIII: Day of the Destroyer Hints
I'm trying to kill all the Dragons, but they keep regenerating!
1 of 7: Not really; it just seems that way.
2 of 7: Once you kill off the two standard guards for the entrance to the guarded tunnel, other Dragons will teleport in when you push past that point if the cave is friendly and not cleared out yet.
3 of 7: Remember, the cave is re-friendlied whenever you exit and reenter it, and whenever you restore a save inside it (usually).
4 of 7: Your problem is undoubtedly that you're using the classic retreat-and-fire method to kill off the Dragons in the forbidden tunnel and beyond, and you end up having to retreat past the guarded point.
5 of 7: That's okay as long as you don't then save and restore your game and then push past the guarded point again. (Feel free to save and restore once you're sure you're past the section of the tunnel that initiates hostilities and does the teleporting.)
6 of 7: You're just going to have to be careful not to get hurt and not to restore your game for any reason until you've cleared out the forbidden tunnel and the first room beyond it. From there on in, it's relatively easy going.
7 of 7: Also, once you're credited with having killed all the Dragons (you'll actually get a message on the message line to that effect), no more will regenerate for any reason until the entire cave hits its regeneration cycle.
