Greater Dragon Nerf 1.0

• Damage cap of 130 (Melee and Breath Attacks)
• Special attack change 10%, instead of 20%*
• Special attacks fire n:* more than once every 30 seconds
• Breath fires n:* more than once per 45 seconds
• Breath and special attacks will never fire less than 15 seconds apart
• Tamers which are hidden and flagged aggressor against another player will be revealed when their dragon breath attack hits the player

• This is about rate of occurence. Most super boss-mobs in the game have a rate of occurence of 20% (1:5 hits unleashed a special move). The fact that the Greater Dragon kept this after being tamed was insane.

We've effectively halved that occurence rate to a much more acceptable rate of 10%, which is still upper-end, but not out of the range of other pets.
