We are on Act II of our campaign, we had been sent by a Court Wizard of the city of which my Ranger lived to acquire his personally favorite staff.

We tracked it into a harsh and hostile range of mountains of which never seemed to stop snowing. Eventually we reached this cave, and my character had all the signs to know that this was a dragons lair.

I learned about the very bad side effect of portable holes and bags of holding way earlier in the campaign, and my character decided, well, to prop open two bags of holding on each side of the cave.

I had 3 portable holes, of which I attached 2 of them in a fashion to my arrows to fire into the bags I had placed.

After luring the dragon out to where I had placed the bags, we decided it was a DC30 shot on both. I successfully rolled a natural 20 on the first shot, and made another successful shot with a DC33 or something of that sort.

Paizo never really explains the effect of the Portable Hole -> Bag of Holding effect other than it's a portal that sucks anything in within 10ft of it's epicenter. My thought was it's equivalent to a black hole, and since I used 2 bags and caused the dragon to be sucked into both, the Astral rift tore it in half, killing it immediately.
