Oh, and Cynder_543, I used Dark52's cheats and if you use them (I forget which one) but one will give you all your armor. Put on the last set on either spyro or cynder and flip through your elements. You will find that you have a fury element. It's the last one and that should help you defeat the elete enemy.
Hope I helped!

Sorry for double posting but I really wanted to post this... (don't know why)

I do love DOTD very mutch. But I think some things need to be improven....

*WARINING: THERE ARE ALOT OFF SPOILERS TO THOSE WHO STILL HAVN'T FINISHED THE GAME!!!!*


  • Delay it for 6 and a half more months (replay the game and check to see if there is some things they need to improve on)
  • Put more things in the flying system (press L1 to go faster, press R1 to go slower, press X to land ect)
  • Make the game ALOT more longer and make the levels longer
  • Improve the fight with Malefor
  • Make Cynder black
  • Try to make Ignitus's death ALOT more sad (I didn't even shed a tear when he died smilie)
  • Improve the grapics a little bit more on the PS and fix up some off thoughs glithes (like the one when Sparx looks weird in a cut seen in Avalar)
  • Being able too fly alot more higher
  • Improve the AI charactor. Its like a newsance really... It dosn't hardly help you when you fight. And I hate it when the enemys go strate for me and dosn't even look at the other brainless charactor
  • Make it a little more interesting and gripping

....... Why do I have this feeling that I'm gonna get called 'retarted' and stuff....?
