So in my campaign we are 6 lvl 14 character's, part of the story is that there are these dragon orbs there are 4 total and they cause all magical items to not be able to be made, can still find and use any item but nothing can be made, so the cost of magical items at shops has skyrocketed, causes any good dragon within 60 feet to potentially be driven mad and join the chromatic dragons. So there is a war going between the chromatic dragons, metallic dragons and the shadow dragons, the shadow dragons have a queen who is trying to convert and take over the chromatics and eventually the metallic's, I have come up with 1 of the 4 orbs to be destroyed by taking it and seeking out 3 dragons of Copper, Bronze & Brass to all 3 blow on it at the same time. The next three I want to also be a challenge to get and something unique to also be a way for them to destroy it, I need some ideas? Anyone have some nice thoughts to help?
Maybe one needs the breath of some chromatic dragons but not all at once. So the party can go pick a fight with a red, make sure the person holding the orb gets breathed on, then they kill the dragon, and move on to a different color.
They have to sacrifice some of those hard to come by magic items, along with with the orb.
Do you have planar travel? Maybe one can only be destroyed on some other plane. Like the plane of shadow, since you have shadow dragons.

Thanks Xalthu for the suggestions I like them.
