| | Part of the [[Elixir of Life]], together with the [[Ring of Vitality]] and the [[Vial of Lifeblood]]. |
| '''Rust Dragons''' are level 7 [[neutral creature]]s recruited from the [[Sulfurous Lair]], which can only be found from the [[Adventure Map]].
| |
|

|
| ''"Rust Dragons are known to hunt [[Gorgon and Mighty Gorgon|Gorgons]], and live and feed in [[Sulfurous Lair|sulfur mines]]. With this appetite, Rust Dragons spew a concentrated acid as their primary attack. This acid is capable of eating through the strongest armor, lowering the defense of its target while inflicting further damage."{{-}}<sup>[[Armageddon's Blade Manual Page 19|AB manual]]''</sup>

| == General tactics and info ==
| | {{Artifact 'see also'}} |
| Placing Rust Dragons (as well as any living Dragons) in the [[Skeleton Transformer]] will give you [[Bone Dragon]]s instead of regular [[Skeleton]]s.

| |
|
| With their incredibly high speed, health, and attack damage, Rust Dragons are generally considered the third strongest creatures in the game, following only [[Azure Dragon]]s and [[Crystal Dragon]]s in raw stats.

| == Acid breath special ability ==
| |
| Acid breath [[special ability]] may occur after a stack of Rust Dragons have attacked target creature stack and before the stack has a chance to [[Retaliation|retaliate]]. The breath reduces the target stack's [[defense]] by 3, and has 30 % chance to cause additional [[damage]] amount of 25 points per attacking unit.
| |
| | |
| == Appearance ==
| |
| Rust Dragons were added in {{ab}} so there are no Rust Dragons or [[Sulfurous Lair]]s in {{roe}}.
| |
| | |
| == Trivia ==
| |
| | |
| Even though in the game files themselves the Rust Dragon and other neutral dragons are considered to be level 7, the official editor shows they are level 10 (8 for [[Faerie Dragon]]). This is either due to code limitations and impossibility of creating a unit with tier higher than 7, either because the developers didn't have time, motivation or reason to add a new creature level in the game code and invest time in that, just telling us they are level 10, respectively 8. As such, even now their levels are still being debated.
