The main problem with Hydra for ftp/low spenders who haven't been playing for years is not just the amount of job specific maxed champions you need for three teams, but also the fact that 99.99% of those champions need to be fully booked to be effective in Hydra lol. Then factor in that in most cases it seems champs need to be built differently with masteries/artifacts than the rest of the game - more expense swapping gear in and out each time. The only time I hit Hydra is when the advanced quest pops up, then throw a group of champs together, set it to auto and accept the 40k damage run. Done, dusted and forgotten for another few days 🤔🤣. Great video for Hydra strategy though, might revisit it in 2023 sometime 👍
Edit: seems I am not alone - the Telerian Summer Trials page shows that 758,033 keys have been used of the 4,500,000 target lol. That compares to almost 10mil of the 40mil target being reached for Demon Lord
I feel your pain. 40k is a bit too low though, isn't it? You've embellished it, right?
@@Kamiyodesuyo probably lol...the simple fact is that Hydra is so unrewarding for ftp/low spenders that I literally just click champs to fill the spots (whoever they are) and hit go. Don't take notice of the damage dealt but know it's insignificant as it's over so quick. It's the only aspect of the game where I've found that the quest reward gives you more than you get from the activity 🤣. I was getting a chest from CB within weeks of starting, same with some small rewards from Doom Tower. Day 140 and getting Grandmaster chest on Nightmare CB, but no chance of any reward from Hydra - so why invest the time/effort outside of the quest?
Just use those 3 keys every refresh to avoid the advance quest... I never have those quest after using my 3 keys
@@cjhaedaten8711 bruh.
"To avoid doing hydra, go and do it anyway". 'Brilliant' logic
@@Kamiyodesuyo just use all 3 key in 1 go... it doesn't even take 1 minute to do so...
No amount of nerfing/quests/guides will make me like that boss. I only endured it to get Mithrala. Unless they add some crazy broken Ninja 2.0-kind of champion to the reward pool, I'm not touching that snake again. Still, thanks for the guide. I'm sure it will be a great help for those who actually enjoy Hydra but are struggling.
Feel you on that. If they removed the need for 18 champs, improved the drops to include shards and books, and eliminated the RNG on the fight then I would be okay with the boss.
its harder content for whale type players so they dont get bored im FTP 1 year but im making real progress in there, once you get the hang of it an build a team that can survive 40+ turns you will start enjoying it
@@robertschweikl8827 I can survive till the heads start eating my champs non-stop, can decapitate the whole bunch of them (only on easy mode, ofc) , but I still don't enjoy it, it's still too much effort, specially since I can't auto it effectively. Maybe I could if I speed-tuned the team but then I'd ruin my regular CB autoruns.
@@robertschweikl8827 I have a super end game account, 1 key all levels I do, and I despise Hydra. The RNG is crap, it’s just not fun content at all. Not to mention the rewards are just garbage.
@@nunyabizness6662 i got several mythical pieces an 6 star mythical boots with speed were fantastic for me, must be bad rng drops so far for you
The best hydra boss introduction with no doubt !
I’ve watched several Hydra videos of other CC but Ash did this with flying colors and get to the bottom of it.
That Star Wars T-shirt tho? Invisible power S Tier 🤣🤣
Good video bud. Thanks. I also use demy bc I have here so fast for my cb team. Keep up the good content
Hey Ash, really enjoy the content. There's a TH-camr that does raid content that I've never seen in a collab with any other channel despite having over 10k subs. His name is Soda dragon. Would live to see a video with you guys together.
I think the rewards for content like hydra is really hard to balance. The easiest version of hydra is one of if not the most difficult boss in the game. The vast majority of the playerbase can't even get the lowest chest on normal. If the rewards were overtuned it becomes this cycle of only feeding the rich. I think the whole boss needs to be rebalanced. Players early on should be able to fight hydra and still get something from it.
it feels like a cliff to me. With normal clan boss there are these stairs, and they get pretty steep towards the end but you are always able to keep going up. Hydra is just a sheer cliff. Until you are good enough to just reach up to the top there is no way for you to start making progress. Every other part of the game, even doom tower, you can start taking on within the first month of playing. The rewards are pretty garbage but you can start fighting them and work your way up. Hydra is the only one where there is no reasonable starting point.
Fantastic point!!! Agree 100%!
The purpose of hyrda is to give krakens something to do so they dont quit the game. There is no other reason. Plarium wants your money and nothing else.
That’s what I need! Thank you bro
I have yet to watch but before I do, THANK YOU!!!
I hope you are doing well Ash :)
Best 5 champions to use in hydra:
1. Krisk (he brings everything. basically 3 champs in one)
2. Ursala (brings so much! pair her with any healer and thats all the support you need)
3. Shamael (speed boost on lead, best torment counter, can also serve as mischief tank)
4. Uugo (block buffs and dec def would be enough, but the heal and cleanse are sneaky good)
5. Duchess (massive support!)
I'm very good on clan boss, I usually take the top rank up to brutal / nightmare, but hydra! I can't even do 1 million damage, on normal.
i use norog in my normal rotation and i agree, he's amazing as an alternative to Uugo if you don't have 2-3 Uugo's. If you have 2-3 Uugo's... then maybe just do that.
Hey ash. Have you ever thought about Having a meet up or something so fans can meet you?
Yesterday I had uugo do her revive all in hydra. First time it ever happened but it was funny as I was thinking I am screwed her with just uugo left and still 1m short of the next level chest....I glanced away from my phone for a second and when I looked back I had all 6 team members back. Hahaha, I was thinking how on earth did that happen. Then I remembered her special skill!!
16:35 killed me.🤣🤣
Rewards in general makes sense
I have no thoughts about the rewards on hydra because I have never gotten a single chest. I watch all these hydra videos, but apparently, I'm just not getting the jist. I am building geo and rector but I am not cc class getting books tossed at me. I've said this before and stick to it, take over my acct and see if you can build a team that gets even a novice drop.
Ash you need to show more rare champions in videos like this one. I say this because I don’t have many legendary and I’m am able to battle hydra but not much luck.
My husband can get 50 million on the Normal Hydra. I can barely get over 1 million. I do well in every other area of the game. But I just don't have the crabby paddy formula yet I guess. I still really appreciate the game, though. It's a beautiful game with lots of really cool looking champions and enemies. I can't think of a better game I can play on my phone. This takes a lot of effort to make the game fun and being creative with the characters and bosses. It's a great game despite flaws. Gotta be forgiving with stuff like this. They will balance it out and no matter what, they can't make everyone happy all the time.
Ash I don't play hydra since my champs are not made for hydra but I want at one point to be able to do it since mythrala is amazing
No talk of Raglin??? Revive, Heal, Remove Debuffs, 15% turn meter fill AND 33% defense in all battles Aura!!!
Raglin is so underrated
This is where they should add in missing frags for past fragment events
Ash I don't have good reflect pieces for my kantra, maybe could I use frenzy or relentless instead?
I'd like to see more examining of which boss does what. I just hit auto and if they eat a guy attack that one with the green bar, I have no idea which boss is which. It's a terrible instance/raid.
Live your content ash...
Love you too father
They need to do something to hydra to make people go after it. And not by forcing people with the daily missions and such. Better rewards. Gems, shards, books. At the same time. Almost all of my clan can't even get the "Novice Chest" from Hydra easy. They need to do something better then what they are doing now. I definitely say they need to take the Head of Mischief out till much difficult lvs of Hydra. That is all of my clans biggest weakness to Hydra. For me, when facing Mischief, I just deal enough to get the Warrior chest. When I don't see that head, like on this rotation, I did almost 40 mil. I believe I could of done even more if I didn't have that head pop up after decapitating a previous one. That freaking head always swallows my team... every......Single......TIME.
I never understand how to know all the details from champs to each piece armor but I just can't for some reason. I think I have some pretty ok champs but I dont understand how people do it. i watch so many people to try learning like you, hades, skratch, i watched a vid from gameleap, and i just dont know nothing. my hydra team does 1.2m most of the time and my 2nd and 3rd team dont do more than 500k
I'm still new to raid, and it feels like I can't even touch Hydra unless I have decent lego's. And with the summoning events....not having any luck what so ever >.
fair warning, im having a drink while im about to watch this, if i make bad comments.. considder yourself warned haha
It's def a pain but a great challenge as well. Can't get a one key max chest on the lowest 3 difficulties but it's a good source of gear but after mithrala is unlocked it's pretty meh. Frustrating with little reward
Is there any benefit to running 2x Inquisitor Shamael? Would Acolyte be any good for Hydra? EDIT - LMAO at the pic of Bulwark. wtff
We can see through you
Best cc on raid
I just got my PB on Hydra hard almost 46mil.
Shamrock's getting no love on speed buffs front? :)
And he steals buffs with A1
Love your channel Ash so I can say this and I feel you will value it. We "normal" players can't contend with these teams CCs are showing. Your teams are amazing but once I saw them just couldn't watch. When a player sees Mithrala IN the team they need to GET Mithrala its sad. The inflation of Plarium pushing it's content while fixing actually nothing except higher thresholds is disgusting. Except habit and addiction, why is this game good? Can't someone speak on that? Such possibility but we've been living on possibility. No one has an hour or more to hit hydra. You have to grind like a job to get a whiff of a good shard and THEN crack disappointed. I'd be sorry about the rant but I'm hitting the end of my almost 3 year strife. Staring at level 98 having my last reward at 95 and staring at the sad sacred at level 100...without Mithrala and without Lydia. Rant over, you are the OG Raid CC and I hope you keep doing your thing. I feel many feel like I do and if not then have mercy on me in the comments. :)
i think you'd feel better if you spent more money on the game.
Hydra clan boss is a KEKW boss. Why would anyone who isn't dropping 100~200 a month on the game bother with it hah. It's just a flex boss for spenders and tbh, that's fine too, but that's why there are now shards or books as rewards, ya'll spend for them anyway why reward you with them? hah. But I ain't gonna be able to do it for another year at this rate as a 3 year player who is almost completely F2P (spent maybe 100 in 3 years). But my legendarys, whilst almost all of them are GOOD, they're very specific and only 1 of them is useful for Hydra. Then my epics are in similiar spaces. I have a dcent group for regular clan boss. But I'm aways off Hydra. Maybe if I get really lucky on a 2x event this year.
Ash I don't think you have anuf legendary champion's in your teams.
I think you can make a vible team out of login and epic champion's
im clueless on hydra/sigh
Hydra is insanely difficult, and so rewards should b worthy of the challenge, however they lack, jus like raid game creator mentality. Give up the goods creators 4 we gamers who pay, pay, pay 2 play !
If I could get leggo books and shards from hydra I'd keep going. Otherwise soon as I get the champ. I'm out
Who has mother cyble nobody?
More books and l l 5chickens!
Looks like the same rewards. Damn
no info about ressist I need
: bad comment
i had to sorry
see earlier post
Hydra=dead after mithralla lmao
Ash, why you are so "mamado"?
Hate hydra..
...
I wish there were better rewards with Hydra like shards or books. I've got a few of the champions you talked about, so I'm excited to try to put better teams together! Wish I had more block buff champions besides Deliana - she's my only one... Uugo has risen up my most wanted list, for sure.
Shards and books for sure to make it worth the trouble. It's only ONCE A WEEK Pilarium!
Was expecting a Nub collab again, still another fantastic video nonetheless! Thanks for the content Ash.
I am really enjoying Hydra lately and am hoping for a new head to be released soon. I think Maulie and Iron Brago are sleepers for Hydra personally
For me Wythir is just a real unit in Hydra, AoE Leech A1, Cleanse and huge heal on A3 and increase defense on all with more heal and even mor continious heals on everybody with every thing she does
Bro, besides needing multiple teams, the rewards are quite lackluster, but most of all…
It just takes too long 😭.
I'm not trying to be a smart ass but you only told us which champions we're good to use. Please could you possibly walk us through the fight against the HYDRA and explain how and what as you go?? I'm ftp but I do have NINJA, Scicia and Drexthar. . . . . . The problem is that if I can get the HP burn on ALL the heads, every time the damage ticks I get attacked, well I've been getting 2,000,000. So I'm at least getting my chest on my accounts but I am having to wait til the poison cloud is gone. Even when I manage to place block buffs the one HYDRA head removes it. I have been disabling the auto function and that's when I was finally able to get a chest the last 6-7 times. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!! CAN you walk us through the battle on normal....... I wish they would have a EASY mode, I want Mythralla sooooo bad. TY Ash!! P.S. I WAS DOING OKAY UNTIL THEY NERFED BRIMSTONE!!!! DAMN IT, COME ON PLARIUM.
After getting Mithrala, you lose 1 reward slot in every chest because her fragments are not replaced by anything. That sucks
Additionally, Hydra fights may be very long : around 45 mins per fight if you have a good team + the reloads you may have to do + 99.9% of players can't Auto these fights. It's a lot of time investment even if Hydra resets are weekly. Protection and Stone Skin sets are cool but Hydra rewards are still poor, very poor when you consider how much time it takes to fight it.
I like hydra clan boss too, they just need to cut down on the amount of time that it takes to play. That said the most beastly toon for hydra is Master Butcher. He's my #2 pick for Bommal and my #1 pick for Hydra. He beat out warchief because of his affinity. One day Warchief was resisted 4 times in a row, so i replaced his ass. Anyone who can keep the dispel head taunted solo 100% of the time is worth gearing up.
lol i have a really hard time setting up teams for normal stuff never mind hydra "never even done over 500k" I just put what ever together just to get the missions done.
They need to keep the heads consistent. Stop the randomised heads so we can plan better. Don't have time to manual this crap for 45 Min a run.
So I just finished upgrading ninjas 2nd ability, and I just got my first legit damage done to hydra clanboss. 2M damage!!!. Im a mid game player, but I ran with Lyssandra for speed and debuff transfer, stag knight for debuffs, Deliana for block buffs and decrease Res, Mausoleum mage for cleanse and buffs, Ninja for HP burn/damage, and finally Visix for provoke.
I struggled with hydra as a new to end game. The best tip was someone who is a slow boy with high res and the most buffs and build a all aoe champ in taunt set. After that it's easy I have 4 early game players in my clan working towards one keys on normal full auto.
I use Deliana and her Block Buffs. I love her in my team ❤
DOOMPRIEST! Not a bad option as a debuffer/healer...and buffer, too. And you don't have to book her, either.
I have actually been moving away from block buffs for hydra. If you have a burner and a mischief tank, you really don't need block buffs anymore. You still need to find a way to remove inc attack from wrath but there are a lot of champs that can reduce buff duration that are already good for hydra. ie, geo, godseeker, brogni, lydia (with single target block buffs)
Ninja slaps and is my overall best Hydro champ.
I feel the whole extension of de/buff masteries has become a bit of a rule of thumb in general for me since I hit the LV20+ dungeons on bosses, my builds that don't have them feel really underwhelming- particularly buffers.
The rewards aren't worth the time and effort it takes. Once I got mithrala I stopped
I only do it now to help clan progress and to prep for the next frag champ we get from it.
A little off-topic, but need your input on this:
Do you think "10X chance" is a misleading name for an event as it pertains to a casual player? Some people seem to think it's common knowledge, I think the true odds are cleverly veiled behind the fine print and math that a casual player should not have to go through to realize that the real odds are miniscule.
Would like to hear from casual players and noobs, when you see "10X chance to pull Cupidus", what do you expect your odds of pulling Cupidus to be?
@Miggel Carrera Thank you. I am familiar with the odds, I usually either save for 2x or a guaranteed champion events, and I keep track of my mercy counter in case of 1+1 Leggo or 10X event. But I have a problem with what it looks like to casual players. At the end of the day, people feel decieved, and it's not good for the game in the long run. And sadly, this is not the only thing that feels like predatory advertisement. I want the game to last long, not become a cash cow before it even reached its potential.
the starting point for getting any leggo is 0.5% per Ancient pull, 6% per Sacred pull - that's individual chance per shard not cumulative that grows over time lol. Then divide that 0.5% or 6% by roughly 150-160 (amount of leggos you can actually summon by shards) to calculate your chance of getting the individual champ you are chasing when it is not a 10x event (roughly 0.003333% for Ancients). When the 10x is on you get a 0.5% chance per Ancient shard to multiply that 0.003333% chance by 10, that the single champ you want will appear before the 150-160 competing leggos that make up the rest of the pool. So short answer is I don't pull shards during 10x events unless I am pulling them for some other event as well lol.
@@mattgibson6144 I know how the odds work, Matt. I do the same thing, I only pull 10X if I'm guaranteed a Legendary due to mercy counter or if it coincides with another event. However, I had to learn about those odds by reading deeper into the explanation. I imagine you did, as well.
However, in my experience, to a casual player, a 10X chance means all other legendaries are 0.5% while that specific legendary is 5%. Now we can all sit here and mock "the unenlightened" because we read the fine print and they didn't, and laugh at the stories of a poor sap who thought if he spent enough money, he'd for sure get the champion he wanted, but I maintain that such business practices are not good for the business long term.
All I wanted is to inform those who are confused. If you know about the odds, good for you, I'm not trying to teach y'all anything. But when someone delegates the responsibility to know those odds to those who don't read up on every bit of text in the game, it sounds a lot like "you deserve to lose money for not reading the fine print".
I agree with so many points in this video lol. Uugo is so freaking good man. I used to like her but with Hydra added she has become S+ tier.
When it first came out, I hated Hydra but I am starting to enjoy it actually. Granted I am at a point where everything else is auto aside from pushing hard DT. But yea having to go in and manual and think about it is actually kind of fun (though not really worth it after getting Mithrala as you mention).
For Hex I like Mickinachi. He might not have been released as a champion by the time to first released this video.
For Decrease SPD I like Sniktraak, Countess Lix, Lady Kimi and Royal Guard
For Nukers - I prefer single-target damage dealers, as to not lose out on damage mitigation from AOE hits. I like Konstanine the Dayborn and Fennax
For healers I agree with your list but.......My favorite healer in the game is Wythir the Crowned. She is a beast, amazing healer for Hydra Clan Boss.
I think Hydra is a bit over-turned still, myself. I am late game and only do 2 keys in Hydra. I am looking to build my Husk and Royal Guard next for Hydra - to try to hit Brutal - Hydra.
The rewards for Hydra and Hydra Clash are lacking a bit. Where are the skill tomes? Where are the 5-star chickens? Where are the Void and Sacred shards? More silver would be nice also.
Thank you for the video.
I like the rewards. I like how you can farm mithrala in give or take 30 weeks with just a clan that can finish the boss on normal difficulty, I also like how good mithrala is for hydra. I hate the resistance required to beat this boss by doing a full auto run (which would make a lot more people enjoy it). 300 resistance and 200 accuracy is just too damn much. Even with raf matab its a struggle to get that kind of accuracy without having your great halls filled.
Nice video, finally at that spot where I'm really enjoying hydra as well. Truly end game content, but come on. Up the rewards.
Head of Mischief is the single most ridiculous of the Hydra heads. It's just not fun. The ability for it to steal buffs on its MAIN attack is 90% of the problem with Hydra. There is a reasonable answer for literally every other head, but Mischief is what makes the whole thing less desirable to even run. In fact, once I've got Mithrala (I'm 5 shards away), I may stop doing hydra altogether unless they boost rewards and/or nerf mischief.
long story 42 minutes short, AOE on A1 is very important S+++++ for beginners.
forgive me im drunk.. but @ASH
can you find a good cause like Arc but EU based? Ill setup my account with good amount of sacreds or any shard for you to pull.. ill match your Arc donation to Arc fot the EU equivalent.
idea i had a while
im a low spender but will pull the wallet to spend for this special occasion
love the content love your approach and filantropic attitude"
(preferabely with Nub raids there, you 2 are my favorites! he can maybe give a good EU cause)
Bro. You tagged this as "for begginers". Start with the basic premise and tell us why a champion like "shameal" is good for that head. I've only ever done hydra to meet challenges and achievements. I've no idea wtf you're talking about.
You know the worst part about hydra? The rewards are pretty much the same no matter if you hit normal or unm. I spent a lot of time collecting resources to build a good hydra team, and it sucks collecting nothing but artifacts and clan tokens every Wed. I was really hopeful that they'd add better awakening frags as hydra rewards. But nope. Rewards remain stale. And for those about to call me pay to win, I may have spent $200 when I first started playing years ago? Since then, I haven't spent a dime.
Totally off topic but....I love all your tattoos but can't tell what they all are....do you think maybe in one of your videos you can give us a run down??? If not that's OK too!!! Keep up all the good work Ash!!
ok so I won't plan on an actual successful hydra fight for at least a year and it will only be to get the champs, demon lord is cool, I am still struggling with bomel and nether spider on the higher levels of doom tower
Tyrant the MVP - HP lead, tank, solo Spider and IGolem, Def up + ally protect + 3 turn burns AoE... what do you need more. :)
I'm honestly just gonna say give me more clan tokens man 12. 15. 20. Blah I need more its just me and two others in my clan and I'm trying to lvl it up for yannica I have 73 fragments for her already.
Hey Ash? Can you do an account takeover for me on Normal 120 Eternal Dragon. Right now I can only get him to half health and he always seems to eat one of the brown minions gaining his health back and completely overwhelming my team after that
When You Know You Have Solid Champ Butt Need Like So Much To Upgrade Them As Fully Free To Play 😢 Life
Rewards need a buff in most areas of this game,it would be cool if we could trade rewards for other rewards that we could use nothing crazy but like maybe 10 books for a shard depending on its rarity of xp brews for double xp idk something along those lines.and can we get some new god like in uncommons
About time someone made this video.
if you haven't watched nub raids, he provides excellent hydra content.
So bro ash my man listen you are starting to make Harrier type comments you know what I mean Best in the game or favorite in the game they all can't be best or your favorite. Every time you do its like you pull a Harrier from shards. It's almost to the point of hearing chalk scraping on a chalk board. Either your editor doesn't hear you say it or its your thing now if its your thing please try and say less everything else great but those best in the game or favorite in the game.too much man lmao😁 keep on putting out the content just edit out the best in the game pretty please I really really really mean it lol
Lol bro ur hydra champions have terrible builds on them haha. Low defense and what not. C'mon. Do better. Be better. You can't be the "Noob" forever.
I have 500 resistance, and 80 to 100,000 HP, 300+ accuracy on my team and I’m still getting my butt kicked on normal
So based on the fact that I literally don’t have a single one of those champs but Deliana, you’re telling me I am screwed. All this at level 57.
Great vid Ash! #1 thing i gathered from this is you need SPECIFIC hydra only champs (basically champs you are not using in other parts of the game). I dont mind this as I have a lot of champs I just never use. I think I'll max out 1 team and go from there with the spare champs I have
Tweh, actually you need three team not just one for each key
thanks ash, this is the kind of guide ive been looking for but couldnt find for some reason! I really appreciate you for making this.
Rewards make hydra almost a waste of time… I’ve been playing raid 2 years now and can only 1 key normal. Hydra is almost making me want to quit this game
I tried Hydra only one time since I hit lvl 45 and I was like nope. Lol my 10 mil demon lord team got wiped at less than 300k damage. Let me know when they add rewards worth the effort
Head of mischief is so annoying I rage quit so many times.. If they at least got rid of his turn meter reduction that would be great. We can't manipulate their turn meter so he shouldn't be able to manipulate ours.
And Var-Gall hard-counters 3 nastiest heads: Mischief, Wrath and Decay... why no luuv?
Seriously - all the rewards in this game tends to be a big pile of doo-doo. Now I'll continue watching. :P
i 've been playing raid for a year now. The only rare (non void champion) that i never got its apothecary. I even got the best rare; coldheart but not him... oof
i'd take black knight over angar as well, unfortunately i have pulled angar 3 times and zero black knights.
1st.. love your content.. getting paid but still hold true and honest.
2nd.. Unless I missed it. U forgot my boy krisk..
Until they add shards and books, I'm done with Hydra. It's ridiculous that the most end game boss doesn't give the best rewards.
You left out my 2 mvp's! Cardiel and siphi ! They carry my team hard . Oh and doompriest to deal with the fear head 🤣
When Mithrala isnt a good enough reward lol
Im of the opinion rewards are good. If anything we need more ways to get books and Hydra would be good to give that once a week
