Are we supposed to believe that not one single Scorpion bolt hits Drogon during the entire siege on Kings Landing...

Because they are hacks

obviously its unrealistic because you would probably need at least an 88 flak to take down a dragon. the problem is the inconsistency within the show. either scorpions counter dragons or they dont but to radically change the powerlevels in a span of 2 episodes is just retarded

this

Rhaegal deserved better.

because that would make perfect sense

Variable power levels

man what the fuck why does the mountain look like varys

Everyone thought he died during episode 3 until that episode 4 preview, honestly would have been better if he stayed dead.

because they needed some dramatic to happen in the episode prior to it, and they couldn't figure out what that should be.

Or at least Melissandre's execution.

>dragons with dragon riders are ten times deadlier than a dragon and he was injured

But how do dragon riders even control their dragons?

All we've seen Dany do is say drakarus to burn niggas, there's no inclination of how they're manoeuvred in flight or instructed to land and shit.

I wish Jon had been riding him so I could blame that fuck for 2 dragon deaths.

She expected them this time, while she kind of forgot about them when Rheagal was shot.

Was misandi's decapitation not enough?

telepathy, targaryens or rather valyrians have a mental connection to their dragons, it's their blood.
Stark blood is also magical as well, warging, greenseeing.
Also we literally see danny turn with drogon to dodge ballistas, do you think she is just using his spine flabs as reins..

Why did she even use her army? Might as well have just used the dragon. Hell, given the distance from the scorpions on the wall to the actual palace, she could have dove down from the clouds into the palace and demolished it with Cersei inside, gg no re.

Or perhaps the issue is that all the scorpion personnel are fasighted so they'd easily be able to snipe the dragon from that far like with Rhaegal, but they can't hit dick when the dragon is in their face.

>Are we supposed to believe in dragons

>Show has magic and dragons
>lol why was this historical siege so unreallistic????
>how could this actual weapon of war kill a fantasy lizard????
You people are fucking morons, pic related.

imagine being this retard

Dude, sneak bonus. Do you even D&D?

Umm sneak bonus doesn't affect to-hit rolls, only damage.

I don't think a dragon in flight counts as flat footed either.

Well, obviously the indirect fire control observers that they MUST have had in the last episode weren't at their stations.

I actually laughed when Rhaegal was hit the first time and laughed even harder when he was hit a second later with another bolt, lightning from a clear sky.

I could have sort of bought it if they had fired a whole volley and one managed to hit because it wouldn't have broken all suspension of disbelief because now I'm forced to imagine that there were 3 guys on the ridgeline at Dragonstone observing, calculating and flag signalling fire orders to the fleet.

Well I stand corrected. BG2 was a while ago.

Because that's not retarded enough for the guy who wrote Wolverine Origins

In a way Jon was responsible after the crash landing before. I was surprised the dragon could even fly afterwards.

Drogon isn't a bitch

because her descent into madness shouldn't be "provoked" by something like losing her children, she was always going to go mad, all of her loses (missandei, rhaegal, Jorah) should have happened at least a season prior to her going nuts, she shouldn't need an excuse to burn everyone, she's the mad queen

>dragon dies
Daneyris is kinda annoyed.
>girl orbiter who does her hair dies
DESTROY THE CAPITAL OF THE REALMS AND MURDER TENS OF THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT PEOPLE ARRRRRR

I think D&D's writing is maybe too intellectual for me.

Hey OP, how did you see Godzilla so early? I didn’t think it come out until later in the year. It’s shitty of you to fucking spoil it if you got a leaked copy it’s the only kino I was looking forward too you fat fuck

Poor Rhaegal. Died as the least favorite, unloved, forgotten. Dany didn't even remember him as soon as Jon's sausage came into view.

rhegel was full of onions
drogon is chad

The worst part was that the show's justificaion for it is that she flew down from the sun???

Do they know how big the disk of the sun is in the sky? Do they know what parallax is? They fucking showed that the fleet was like a mile wide? Euron may have been blinded by the sun but a few ships over either side of him would have had a clear view

and that doesn't explain how ineffective all the ballistas in King's Landing were whatsoever

They ran out of the heat-seeking Scorpion bolts.
And the only reason Euron's fleet wasn't able to sneak up on them like this was because they forgot to turn their invisibility on

Can anyone explain to me what did Arya accomplish in KL?

thought this as well

Dragon died fighting, she was mercilessly executed.

they needed someone on the ground to follow and show all the innocents get cooked

I quite literally thought that that was a twist. By this point the writing is so warped that I truly believed Qyburn had cloned Varys and used him in lieu of the Mountain under that armour.

>cruising vs combat flight manuevers

Yeah and now dragon mains are griefing noobs with no impunity, well done devs(!)

And how were Arya and Sandor so fucking slow to reach the Red Keep? They left alone ahead of the armies but couldn't get there before it was too late and the palace was already crumbling down?

>But how do dragon riders even control their dragons?
They've got joysticks on their backs

dany is sitting on her control stick

She dragged that mom and daughter out of their hiding spot therefore killing them

Also Jamie arrived at the same time as them, LOL.

And had enough time to leave the town mid siege, wrap around toward the coast and find the secret entrance.

Based
Also checked

in the last episode she approached horizontally from the front. basically the best case scenario to land shots from afar

in this episode she approached from above and kept herself inside the boat formation. basically the worst to aim at the dragon

The Targs used to do that back in the day as well. But i think many of them had smaller dragons than Drogon

Drogon is actually a smallfuck. Read the prequel

>Dragon died fighting
He did? Am I watching a different show?

Yeah, that was pretty funny. Dragging them out of their safety so they can be killed 15 seconds later. Out of all annoying and dumb D&D characters, Arya is the worst.

They nerfed the scorpions for the latest epidode, I thought they were called balistas?

Way too clever and on point for this show.

because it makes sense?

I think the point was that they had nearly 100% chance of dying there because it seemd that Dany was going to demolish the whole city so they'd inevitably get buried under rubble, at least running away gave them a small chance of survival.

They needed her to go south to get killed by Jaqen, duh.

>Read the prequel
is it decent? somebody gave me book as a present, but kind of not having that much interest in reading it
i guess the dragon was flying towards to boats just to say "hi"

Not every single house was demolished, it seemed much safer to hide somewhere than go outside. Of course you would panic and not think logically in that situation, but dragging strangers with you is another story.

the point is she wasn't """triggered""", she spelled out what she felt she had to do to Jon Snow beforehand.

She may have felt bad, conflicted and not done it, but it's clear this wasn't a last moment decision.

>i guess the dragon was flying towards to boats just to say "hi"
Oh, sorry, didn't realise you were an actual mongoloid who makes up scenes in his head. Never mind.

I think the point was to show how impotent the good guys were in that situation. Tyrion can only stand there in horror. Davos can't lead anyone to safety. Jon can't even stop his own troops from raping innocent civilians and murdering massacring surrendered enemy troops and Arya gets two people who were probably safe killed because she thought they'd be safe elsewhere when that belief is what gets them killed and nearly gets her killed. Jon might be a war hero, and Arya might have anime ninja powers but what are Ninja powers when some crazy lady is razing a city and indiscriminately murdering civilians?

except she was, by the bells, pay attention next time, or at least watch the behind the episode.

More like convenient budget reduction. Same reason they kicked out Ghost.

Stupid shit like an entire army sallying in front of well fortified walls instead of letting the opposition come forward and die since they didn't have siege engines.

she knew what she had to do beforehand, she just got the heart to do it at that point

Rhaegal was killed during dawn, when the sun is in front of the dragon's field of view and it can't see very well. D&D just forgot to explain it to the director of the episode.

Just because you get ambushed doesn't mean it's not a fight.
They were outplayed, which is different from being plain executed after being captured and held hostage.
If euron had managed to capture the dragon alive, tortured it and then beheaded it in front of Danny, she would be very upset too.

Don't blame the plot for your own retardations, user.

It's not bad. If you like the dragons, you'll enjoy it, there's like 30 of the fuckers that have actual names.

> she just got the heart
So you mean now you're admitting there was a inciting incident? I hope you realize you're contradicting yourself by saying this. Either it was premeditated or it wasn't. In other words either she went into the battle expecting and planning on burning the city to the ground civilians included or something happened while she was there to push her over the edge. The show and the behind the episode made it quite clear she snapped when she heard the sound of the bells, that event could have just as easily have been the death of her second dragon.

Why are you being rude? It's a TV show.

Nighttime wouldve solved this problem.
It wouldve been a good tactical decision given how OP the scorpions have been all the times we've seen them on-screen.
Instead she attacked during the day which meant that the """writers""" had to debuff the accuracy of the scorpions a thousandfold.

Yeah, well, that's just like your expectation, man.

I agree. Also, they didn't have much to react to the attack. The dragon approached them quickly and was already very close, in that case you can't aim, very unlikely to hit anything. Same for those on the walls, the dragon see the shots coming from frontal ones very easily (and can dodge them) and distant ones have 0 chance to hit the dragon. Imagine being on the wall, let's say at least 800/1000 feet from the dragon, with it going full speed towards another scorpion (or whatever it's called) good luck hitting anything. The one next to you would be even more distant and would have no angle to shoot at the dragon.

>in the last episode she approached horizontally from the front.
No, they weren't approaching at all, they took a shot at a Dragon from a rocking boat from a mile off while also being behind a cliff at the time without a clear line of sight, landing three consecutive one-in-a-thousand shots in a row.

If each hit came from a full fleet wide volley from a fleet with line of sight on the dragons It might have been more believable, but these are singular shots landing on target from a fleet behind a cliff.

because you read that on leddit

Then we see this happen just a few moments later. Dany does approach he fleet and not just horizontally, she does it head-on and the entire fleet takes aim and the entire fleet's volley misses its mark despite it being a simple shot lined up in front of them, then she turns in retreat and flies straight out again making for an easy target and they again make another volley on her and misses again.

Where did that one in a thousand accuracy go? How can one guy hit a Dragon in flight a mile off three times without a single miss but the entire fleet can't seem to hit one lined up directly in front of them when they had two very easy and clear shots on them?

It was just a very poorly constructed scene.

>hesitates a little to kill a city like planned because everyone she knows has told her it's a mistake
>hur dur that means the bells did it
what the fuck is wrong with you retards

it's fiction

This writing is truly not human anymore. Jesus Christ.

Has magic and magic eye in the books, something like that.

he was also imprisoned for a while there

you already made this non-argument
