EverQuest 2 has seen its fair share of dragons over the last 20 years. Episode 23 of The EverQuest Show counts down the top dragons in both EverQuest and EverQuest II.

And we’ve brought in some help for the big task.

Here to count down their favorite list of dragons of EverQuest 2 is Yavete of the Antonia Bayle server.

Number 5 : Viskudra

Kicking off the top 5 is Viskudra, found in the withered lands. As an NPC dragon she is impossible to kill. She spends her time flying around the withered lands cursing all adventurers or crafters who dare to fly in her presence.  Get caught in her rain and you’ll find yourself plummeting back down to the ground.  And, depending on how far up you were, well, the way down is just as far. Viskudra is more annoying than anything else, but the death count is certainly rising. 

Number 4 : Xygoz

Number four on my list is the sweet little Xygoz in Veeshan’s Peak. While not a tricky dragon to do battle with. The fact that Xygoz falls asleep mid raid and dreams of his fellow dragons taunting him speaks to that little voice inside us all. Who hasn’t fallen asleep and dreamt that their entire raid was calling for them to get online and zone in. 

Number 3 : Venekor

The number three spot on my list is everyone’s favorite emo dragon, Venekor. The first of our recurring villainous dragons in Norrath. Back in May 2005 Venekor captured the entire Froglok race and adventurers were tasked with their rescue. Upon his defeat Venekor retreated to the Halls of the Seeing up in Tenebrous Tangle to await those same adventurers in the kingdom of sky expansion.  

Number 2 : Lord Nagafen

Number two on my list, and just pipped to the number one spot is Lord Nagafen. Probably one of the first dragons you think about when asked to name a dragon in the world of Everquest. Injured in a battle against an army of drakota, Lord Nagafen is currently trapped below the land of Lavastorm, at the very bottom of Solusek Eye. His tattered wings are almost useless and make it impossible for him to reach the surface. Instead, he dwells within his lair,  where players will need to learn draconic in order to speak with him.  And adventurers will want to speak to him, if they wish to attain their prismatic weapons, or gain access into DeathToll. 

Honorable Mention : Lady Vox

Number 1 : Darathar

My favourite dragon is probably the first person you meet as you arrive in the Lands of Norrath. Or, should I say, the ship of Norrath. That’s right, my number one dragon of EverQuest 2, is the legendary Darathar.  And spoiler alert for a twenty year old storyline. Darathar is in disguise for most of the time you meet him.  He talks to you as Captain Varlos and also as The Sage of Ages. He ensures that the adventurers who washed up on his ship are nudged on their way to discover where the prismatic egg created by Lord Nagafen and Lady Vox is hidden.  The questline which rewards the Prismatic Weapon is one of my favorite questlines in the game and this is why Darathar is my favorite dragon of Norrath.
