How to unlock the Faster Than An Ancient Dragon achievement in Neverwinter - Definitive Guide
Faster Than An Ancient Dragon 5G
Do not die while being chased by the Ancient Red Dragon in the Old Dragon's Lair.
Requirements:
Must have Maze Engine DLC Downloaded and Chapter 4: Adventurers of the Lost Artifact unlocked in the campaign (Old Dragons Lair).
This is pretty straight forward and another easy Achievement. You have to proceed through the Maze Engine campaign until you have unlocked/access to Chapter 4: Adventurers of the Lost Artifact. Go to Mantol-Derith and talk to Bruenor Battlehammer and accept the quest above for Chapter 4. Follow the sparkles to go speak to Makos who then will task you to descend into the old dragons lair (again, just follow the sparkles).
Just keep following the only path forward and you will come to a section where you will have to press "A" to proceed through a gate. After the cut scene that kicks in with Larauthtor the Red Dragon quickly turn around and start to run (watch the video below). Makos will put a spell on you that makes you run faster so just follow the path dodging the dragons attacks etc.. until you get to the next cut scene (without dying of course) where the achievement will unlock after watching it. Hope this video helps and enjoy ;)
EDIT: If you fail to get this just teleport out or you can re-do the quest by talking to Bruenor Battlehammer again once you finished it.
EDIT2: For those that are down voting this, please explain why instead of just hiding in the shadows without so much as an explanation as to why, so I might be able to improve it, thanx :)

If you are in a group, all of you must survive to get this. Any person who dies voids it for everyone.

Chapter 4: About halfway through the Old Dragon Lair, once you cross through a gate with Makos, you'll be encountered by a hungry dragon. Makos (as noted in the cutscene) casts haste on the group so you can avoid being a snack. Once the cutscene ends though, you are facing the dragon! So make sure you turn around first. Dodge the incoming fire attacks from multiple dragons and make it to the end of the 'track' without dying. You can take damage while making your escape, just don't become a dragons lunch. A cutscene will then play ending the chase and showing your escape.
