| '''Dragogeddon''' is the unofficial name for a tactical maneuver, wherein the hero aims to cast the [[Armageddon]] spell without harming his own troops. In the original {{roe}} [[Black Dragon]]s and [[Gold Dragon]]s were the best creatures to have when using this tactic, hence the name dragogeddon.

| In order for dragogeddon tactics to work in the best possible way, the hero requires:
| |
| * at least advanced [[Wisdom]] to learn Armageddon
| |
| * high [[Primary skill#power_skill|power skill]] for Armageddon to cause as much damage as possible
| |
| * reasonable [[Primary skill#knowledge_skill|knowledge]] for sufficient spell points to cast the spell at least few times
| |
| * creatures with appropriate spell immunity to cause damage only to enemy units.
| |
| | |
| Possible creatures for the dragogeddon tactics are:
| |
| * [[Black Dragon]]s from [[Dungeon]]
| |
| * [[Gold Dragon]]s from [[Rampart]]
| |
| * [[Efreet Sultan]]s from [[Inferno]]
| |
| * [[Fire Elemental]]s, [[Magic Elemental]]s or [[Phoenix]]es from [[Conflux]]
| |

| Additionally, [[golem]]s may be used for the tactic because of their [[damage resistance]] ability. For this purpose, [[Tower]]'s [[Stone and Iron Golem]]s are typically the easiest to gather. However, dragogeddon tactics are often used in a situations where it is essential to rapidly – preferably in the first round of combat – destroy enemy forces, and therefore golems with a slow [[speed]] rating are not a preferable choice. Conflux's Fire Elementals and Magic Elementals are not significantly better.

| Another situation for dragogeddon is when a player needs to weaken an enemy hero's main force. When used for this purpose, the attacking method is typically hit-and-run, which makes speed essential and Phoenixes the best choice. It is vital for the hero to act first in the combat, cast Armageddon and then [[surrender]] (or [[retreat]]), and then repeat the process. In an ideal situation the enemy hero's movement has ended up near the defending player's town, when it is short distance to attack the enemy hero over and over again with Phoenixes combined with Armageddon.

| | |
| The biggest threat for dragogeddon is [[Orb of Vulnerability]], which suppresses natural magic immunities of creatures, thus making it possible for Armageddon to harm also the attackers own troops.
