Look at the images (Images Below), thats what I have, and he freaking rekt my face.
What can I do so that he DOESN'T rekt my face and that I could actually kill him?
Like that:
1: What do I need to bring with me? (Like Draconic flux capacitor, ENCHANTED golden apples, and those things)
2: What's the best placement for the core upgrades? (With the upgrade modifier)

And questions like that.

Thank you!

SkyFactory I believe has the OpenBlocks mod which adds the "Last Stand" enchantment, which means that when your health is very low, and you WOULD die, experience is lost from you instead. If you have a source for a load of XP (a few hundred levels at least), that might work for you if the Tier 2 enchant goes onto your draconic armour.

How do I get that enchantment?

Right, I've done a quick scan of what mods are in Sky Factory. I'm not sure what options (if any) you have for choosing enchantments so it might be a matter of luck in getting that one on an item. Using the auto enchanter from MFR, or just enchanting armour and hoping, might be your best bet.

Once you've got the enchant at rank II (or two at rank I) on a piece(s) of armour, you can use either the MFR or Draconic Evolution auto-disenchanter to move it onto a book.

If there is a way to copy magical books, do that - alternately use the Botania enchanting process to add the enchant to armour multiple times and then disenchant THOSE.

Needless to say it's a fairly late game, expensive process, and I won't explain the various bits like the Botania enchantment thing and so on because you can look those up.

I've tried fighting the chaos dragon with last stand. It made me live 2-3x as long. And then die anyway, even with fancy tricks, like teleporting around him to pre-defined escape-route teleport points (D.E has a gizmo for this)

Does SkyFactory allow you to use the D.E Draconic gear? With a full set of draconic gear and some flux capacitors on your person, you're immune to essentially everything. I sat there and let the dragon blast me for a long time before getting bored and finishing him off.

Did this a few months ago. Later versions may have changed this, ymmv.

They may also need to be in the correct mode, I forget.
Still rekt me, but your strategy seems to work, I just need to make like 3 more of the capacitors and I think it'll work (I'll tell you after I tried).
BTW, Is there a better way to get awakened draconium? like making 8 blocks at a time or something like that? I'm starting to run out of mob souls.

Sort of. If the modpack has RFTools, you can make a syringe, jab a dragon a few times to fill it, and create a dimension that generates dragons. I've done this. Its simultaneously silly, funny, hilarious and OP, so it suits Draconic Evolution pretty well.

Is it fine that the syringe is at 60%? I got to 100% but whenever I killed him it dropped to 60. AND where do I put it in the dimlet workbench?

OMG, it worked SOOOO good! Thank you! (btw, I have 5 flux capacitors now, one of them has 4 awakened cores on him, and one got 3 :p)

I had full wyvern and an OP crossbow and I enchanted my entire inventory with Soulbound. Took about 30 deaths to take down the dragon but it went pretty well.
