Saurian Sage

 is a Enemy in Dragon's Dogma.

Saurian Sages are white Saurians with the ability to buff and heal their more physically oriented Saurian allies as well as magic attacks. They are fond of the cloak and counter tactics Sulfur Saurians employ, often using their white skin to camouflage themselves into the terrain around them. Additionally, Saurian Sages are considerably more durable than their brethren. Their spit attack drenches an opponent, extingishes lanterns and increases the damage taken from their subsequent spells. They are weak to Dark-element attacks and resistant to Holy.

Tactics

 * Like all Saurians, cutting off the tail will dramatically reduce its Defense and the offenses its AI selects.
 * Strong against Holy enchanted weapons and spells.
 * Weak against Dark-enchanted weapons such as Kunai, and Dark-element spells like High Maelstrom and High Grapnel.
 * Vulnerable to Silence. Use Golden weapons to inflict Silence on spellcasters and render them impotent. The higher the enhancement of a Golden weapon, the higher chance it will inflict Silence with each strike.
 * Vulnerable to Torpor and Poison. Use a Rusted weapon to inflict both debilitations simultaneously. The higher the enhancement of a Rusted weapon, the higher chance it will debilitate with each strike.
 * Unlike other Saurians, they rarely flee after the tail is cut off.
