 * The bosses of the desert and jungle stages can be [[milk|milked]] for additional score. The desert boss will release a constant barrage of cannonballs during its first phase which can be destroyed with the Dragon Shot for gold coins. This becomes more lucrative if the stage is encountered 3rd or 4th, since cannonballs will spawn more quickly. The jungle boss releases two waves of flowers during its first form, which give a significant bounty of gold coins when killed with the Dragon Shot.

 * Remember that after a dragon shot, you can leave your dragon where it is, rather than recalling it immediately. Using your dragon as a stationary turret is useful in a number of situations, such as the lanterns in stage 5, and the [[popcorn]] rushes in stage 7.
 * In the 2nd loop, bosses will fire sickle-shaped bullets which specifically target the dragon. If you find yourself getting overwhelmed by these attacks, preemptively position the dragon so that these bullets are directed away from the player character.

 '''Survival Tips'''
 * Speedkilling enemies with the Dragon Shot is crucial to success in [[Dragon Blaze]]. This is particularly important in stage 5 and beyond, since large enemies will flood the screen with bullets unless they are dispatched quickly. Good planning is therefore vital to making it through the game unscathed.
-* During Boss fights, waves of popcorn enemies will spawn at fixed intervals. It's important to map out phase changes so that enemy spawns don't coincide with attacks that require precise movements or dodging.
