Every victory the Inquisitor has is only possible as a result of Corypheus' hubris.
Or plot-mandated stupidity, as it were.

Just to add that here, Solas refers to Corypheus as himself not having expected "a Tevinter magister who unraveled the secret of immortality". That may either refer to his technique of transfering his essence between two tainted hosts; or that Morrigan had been wrong with her theory.
We never see Corypheus die for good, after all.
I know we shouldn't take too much from gameplay, but I did find it odd that it was easier to kill than some other dragons. I know it had half health, but it should have at least used the abilities the other dragons do, like stunning you or building Guard. Either way, it's harder to kill than Corypheus
Dragon fights are vastly different from most other fights in the game, and for those not fully understanding their nature, also vastly more difficult. That's why all of them are very optional.
I think the fact that the Red Lyrium Dragon is (according to my perception as well) noticeably less difficult, is a conscious game design decision to not frustrate people during the very climax of the game, who hadn't bothered to take on any dragons thus far.
Actually, that part is justified. It's canon that as Grey Wardens approach and succumb to the Calling, darkspawn have a hard time differentiating them from their own kind. And Riordan says he is close to his Calling.
I know by now to have no expectations about the end battle with a seemingly invincible enemy that seem to not only lose any common sense(if it had any to begin with), but it actively trying to let you win.
Learned my lesson from Origins. You win only because Archy 5.0 suddenly decides he can’t feel GW anymore, pawn.
