staying alive as a dragon in Ego Draconis

OK, I have killed Laiken , gotten the dragon stone and turned into a dragon. Now, how do I stay alive long enough to wipe out the things/ forts that are shooting at me as I exit the place where the dragon stone turned me into a dragon.
I have looked for a thread on Dragon skills , re-read walkthroughs, and I could use a few expert tips on how best to use the Dragon mode. Right now, I can't weave my way through the bolts hurled at for very long before being wiped.
Thanks for the help,
Floriad

It's been a while, but IIRC you should use your offensive skills, move back and forth to avoid missiles, and retreat as necessary to heal.

SWCarter pretty much nailed it. Lateral movement is your friend. Be sure to equip what Dragon Armour you may have.

Thanks to both repliers; getting the hang of hang-gliding as a dragon in a fun learning experience. The slip-sliding away and the dragon armor both help. I have also learned to hide behind the cover of the Battle Tower buttresses while the dragon heals and skills recharge.
Thanks , Floriad
