โš™๏ธ Mechanics
โš ๏ธ Attack style switch
Hydra alternates between ranged (green) and magic (blue) attacks. Switch protection prayers accordingly.
โš ๏ธ Chemical pool
Stand on the correct coloured pool to weaken Hydra during each phase.
โš ๏ธ Enrage phase
Below 25% HP, Hydra uses both ranged and magic rapidly. Careful prayer management needed.
๐Ÿ’ก 4 phases
Greenโ†’Blueโ†’Redโ†’Black. Each phase requires standing on specific vent to disable special attacks.
๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ Strategy

Range is best. Activate the chemical pools at each phase. Switch prayers based on attack color (green=range, blue=magic).

Viable but less effective. Stand in melee range and track prayer switches.

Best option. High DPS gear + prayer switches for each attack.

Viable. Use Trident of the swamp or Tumeken's shadow.
