Also, Drakon is the best for anyone that likes to go on shadow levels because the fire can inflict elemental damage, so Drakon is similar to a spare Fireburst Brandish or other weapon that sets monsters on fire.}}
  
{{showhide|'''Disadvantages'''|content= Since Drakon can inflect fire, it may not be very effective in fire levels such as Firestorm Citadel and Compound 42. In Compound 42, you could inflect fire, but there are chances where the poisonous lichens could heal and cause a huge amount of fire in the area. It makes it very difficult. A good way to avoid this is try not to use fire that often.}}
