Would anyone share some strategies on beating VHard Gol Dragon? The character I'm using is a Lv. 76 RAmar, and I carry these weapons at the moment:

Wals MK2 +5
Delsaber's Buster +9
Soul Eater +3
Twin Psychogun
Guilty Light +5
Diska of Braveman +2

Of these, I've usually been using the diska, as I can hit multiple parts of the dragon (and with a God/Battle unit it's easier to use this weapon). Originally my problem was my horrible lack of elemental resistance, but I also tried switching to the Flowen's Shield to help with this problem. The real problem I have is when he splits into three... I can juggle two, not three. 90% of my time after that point is spent trying to get out of the way of ice/lightning breath, healing, or trying to use Sol Atomizers when I get shocked. I almost never have time to attack. And sooner or later I get hit by ice, then something else about half a second later and I get killed.

Is there some secret to getting rid of this guy in VHard? I also heard something about the wing color giving away the fake dragons, but I can't tell the difference. Is there a way to tell?

If shocking is a problem, (I think you are a redria due to fact you mentioned God/Battle) you should go for a Hildeblue in VH Forest, and get yourself a Cure/Shock.
This guy took ages on V Hard for me, you just need patience, luck and power!

Actually I was given the God/Battle, but coincidentally I am a Redria. Heh. It's really more the freezing I have trouble with... I think there are Cure/Freeze units, right? Can I find any of those?

well there is a trick to getting out or freeze as i will be posting in my "Tricks of Battle:Battle Stratagies" guide in a little bit if you move the joy stick up and down or from left to right very quickly then the time you are frozen is cut from 4-5 seconds to 1-2 seconds, the faster you complete the move the quicker you can break out. Also the easiet way to deal with Gol Dragon is find the weapon that will deal the most damage(if you have on the shield of delsaber then you should use the buster) then all you have to is do your best to stay UNDER the dragon's head or behind it(i know there are 3, do your best to stay out of their multiple areas of attack) if you have a shot i advise you to use it on them when he splits as any damage done to each is done to the collective HP. Hope this helps, if you have another problem just ask

Yeah, I know about the anti-freeze trick already. But even 1-2 seconds is more than enough time if another one is breathing lightning at about the same time. And yeah, I know the under-the-head strategy (that's the only way I could beat the Sil Dragon), but it's next to impossible with three of them. The collective HP thing I didn't know. He doesn't recover any HP when he dives/splits again, does he?

I have the Delsaber Shield but I don't use it for this fight because it would leave me with almost no fire/freeze/lightning resistance. I do have a shot (Meteor Smash) but I haven't tried it yet; perhaps it would be better at hitting him than the Diska of Braveman...

Well, shots usually do more than Slicers so its worth a shot.
