How to Beat Swamp Hydra

πŸ“ Sunken Temple β€” Upper Marsh❀️ 55,000 HPβš”οΈ Hard

Strategy

The Swamp Hydra is a dual-threat boss at 50% HP. Phase 1: Stand at the side flanks. Poison Breath hits directly in front, Tail Sweep hits behind β€” the sides are the safe zone. Phase 2: At 50% HP a second head grows. Now you must track two separate attack patterns simultaneously. Coordinate with your team to split DPS. Fire and Lightning skills deal 40% bonus damage. Bring consumable fire flasks as backup.

Attack Patterns

Poison BreathPhase 1

Wide cone of poison gas. Covers 120 degrees in front of boss. Flank to avoid.

Tail SweepPhase 1

Sweeps behind the boss. Never stand at the tail during combat.

Head SplitPhase 2

At 50% HP, the hydra grows a second head with independent attacks.
