Dragons in this are really the pinnacle displays of badassness. If you are not prepared they will shake you off like a bad case of fleas.
Alistair or Shale make good dragon bait ... or you if you are a sword and board user.
If you use Alstair (or you) I think you'll need Juggernaught or Dragon Scale armor ... both have good fire resist. Higher level Warden Commander plate may work too.
If you use Shale you'll want to break out the high powered fire crystal body armor.
Rule 1 when fighting dragons: only the tank goes into melee ... anyone of lesser armor will just get mauled. Break out them bows/crossbows!
Rule 2: Don't bunch up the ranged. Keep them scattered as far apart as possible.
I find having more than one melee on the dragon taxes your healer too much .. unless they are both built like brick shithouses to tank and spank dragons.
IE. Alistair in Juggernaught and Sten in Dragon scale. Rogues in melee = bad idea.
The main tank though should consentrate on drawing aggro with threaten and taunt.
This generalization has worked for me every time. While some combinations are better than others you really can't go wrong with Shale tanking =)
