I need help with the Destroyer level. I can't find "The Destroyer's Nape" (the back of his neck), and the phrase "Go back to the open area..." doesn't help at all. I've been stuck at this for hours, so could someone shed some light on this situation for me?

EVERYBODY WITH DOTD COPY! I MADE A VERY IMPORTANT DISCOVERY!!
I was just playing DOTD with my friend. We were fighting eniimies, I used electricity while she used fear on the same enemy and the enmy blew up in a puff of smoke!! So electricity and fear on the same enemy is a very deadly wepon! It works best if b oth elemeents are upgraded to a high level. First cahnce you get, play wiht another person and test it. and you will see Iam not joking!
Electricty+fear= enemy blows up into smoke!!!!

If the movie turns out to be a flop, then *poof* spyro will dissapear off the shelves. We don't want that to happen, but its what will happen. If the movie gets a lot of money, there will be more spyro games.
