I also see a historical post that says Nintal is supposed to have a stronger breath attack than the standard 250 point one, anyone know the specifics of that in game right now?

Do you mean Myga?

If so, then the answer is yes. People kill Myga for the Porlos quest:

No, I don't mean Myga, as that dragon is already clearly listed.

Nyga is a different dragon that is listed by multiple sources as existing during classic.

Can you post a link to one of these sources? I wouldn't be suprised if it they were just referring to Myga. It might be a typo or they read the name wrong.

There is specifically an item that dropped called "Nyga's Talisman", and the dragon is specifically listed as Level 53, rather than 52 (which is Myga's level). It wasn't a typo. https://web.archive.org/web/20020106....shtml?id=7062

Based on how little information is given, my current thinking is this is a bad entry, where they saw Myga and thought the name was Nyga. I'd need to see a screenshot of a dragon with the name "Nyga" at this point. The item entry itself isn't very good evidence. The Talismans the WW Dragons drop generally match their name, so it would be a safe assumption that the Talisman dropped from "Nyga" would follow the same pattern. A screenshot with somebody holding that specific talisman would be great evidence too.

This post has a list of mobs with "Nyga" in it, but it doesn't have "Myga" in it. Using a quick google search, I can't find a list that has both mobs.

It is possible that Myga and Nyga is same mob, it just had two different names. Nyga does sound kind of like the N word, maybe they changed it.

There's a screenshot of the talisman that dropped and there are many sources who saw the dragon. It's specifically described as "Nyga's AE graphic looks like fire, but the message you get from the AE is Your body freezes as the frost hits you."

Please stop wasting space as usual, this thread is to contribute actual info, thanks.

I am not sure why you are arguing so hard when you have so little evidence. If you search "Nyga" on Allakazam, nothing comes up. "Myga" does come up. You had to use the way back machine to find "Nyga". Why would Allakazam delete the "Nyga" mob and it's talisman? It is more reasonable to assume at this point "Nyga" and "Myga" are the same mob. Unless someone has seen this mob on P99, or has a screenshot showing a Dragon with the name "Nyga" over it, there is not reason to worry about "Nyga" for this challenge.

Don't recall seeing a Nyga. What's it supposed to look like?

Nintal was the same as Bufa when we fought it. It's long enough ago (2017-2018) that it's not necessarily current, but that's the best I can do. Some of those random dragons are pretty rare.

No shit, hence why asking if anyone has seen it on the server. If nobody has, a bug report can be filed. It may have stopped spawning in era, perhaps because of concerns about the name. They probably deleted all of the existing talismans in that case and replaced them with Myga talismans.

Thanks for the info, hopefully someone can provide exact info on Nintal's dragon breath damage at some point. It may need to be changed, and his level increased. Two in-era sources described this dragon as being harder than the other typical nest/roamer dragons.

Thanks DSM and Danth, I was curious about velious dragons and getting a +4 or +5 neck solo was on the to do list but looking it up I couldn't find much info. You can always go to the WW wiki page and sort them by level but that isn't always a good indicator of difficulty. That clears it up a fair bit.

So the nest ones are static but there's some on a cycle (cycles?) so those probably roam?

Going to tackle them as an ench, I guess I need better resist gear first for the AE ones.
