I assume you mean by to kill by a challenge.
The "generic Dragon in lair" is reputed to have a challenge of approx. 100.
All the named dragons are reputed to be much tougher.  Characters with
challenges around 150 have been known to lose and characters with challenges
around 250 have been known to win. I don't have much better info that that.
If we assume that a dragon is at skill level 100 in all four classes, then
his challenge =  156.

So someone with a challenge over 180 might have reasonable odds, but you
are risking a heck of a character doing it.  If you do such a challenge,
please post the outcome.
