Has everyone already forgotten that the ballista were laser guided dragon killing machines one episode and then completely ineffective the next? I don't have any problem with this. Drogon is the largest dragon and Dany's favorite. He's probably more intelligent, more agile and has better reflexes than the other two. Dany chooses to ride him because she knows he's the safest. Plus he's the only dragon who has been hit by a giant projectile and lived, so he knows how much it hurts and probably tries that much harder to dodge them. Most of the scorpions didn't even fire iirc. Every ship in the harbor and every inch of the KL walls had them, and yet Drogon only had to dodge a small handful. It truly felt like the soldiers manning them got a subliminal message of 'the plot demands that we lose, don't even bother.' It's really hard to justify the difference between Rhaegal getting obliterated from a mile away and Drogon effortlessly soloing the entire defense force with any notion of strategic advantage; the only justification is 'the plot demands it' and 'sneak attacks get x1000 critical multipliers in Westeros.' --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. <cite>masterpug53 posted [p:921979480] in Yes GoT su...
