Hydra Clan Boss

Six heads with their own rules, three up at a time. Every head shrugs off Poison, caps HP Burn and MAX HP damage, and is immune to control, so the fight is about choosing the right head, keeping your own team clean of debuffs, and hitting hard when a head opens up.

Reading your account…

Bring

  • Decrease DEFcore

    Multiplies the raw damage every head needs.

  • Weakencore

    Same job, and it stacks with Decrease DEF.

  • Remove Debuffscore

    Fear, Heal Reduction, Poison, Leech and Pain Link all need cleansing.

  • HP Burnuseful

    Blight takes double damage from it, and decapitating Blight burns the other heads.

  • Hexuseful

    Stops Mischief redirecting your hits onto other heads.

  • Block Buffsuseful

    Keeps Wrath, Mischief and Suffering from buffing the row.

  • Strengthenuseful

    Suffering cannot Weaken a champion under Strengthen.

  • Perfect Veiluseful

    Torment only places True Fear on attackers without it.

  • Reviveuseful

    Heads devour and kill champions over a very long fight.

  • Increase Turn Meteruseful

    More champion turns per head turn.

Avoid

  • Poison teams: every head takes 90% less damage from Poison.
  • Big heals while Decay is up: each heal destroys the healed champion's MAX HP.
  • Buff-heavy teams while Mischief is up: it steals every buff and half the Turn Meter.
  • Stun, Freeze, Sleep and Provoke: the heads are immune.

Stats

  • ACC 250+: Suffering adds 50 RES to every head
  • SPD and ACC first, then survivability
  • Single-target damage over AoE: heads take 10 to 30% less from AoE attacks

Notes

  • Decapitating a head has its own effect: Decay heals your team, Blight burns the other heads, Suffering shields you, Mischief empties every head's Turn Meter.
  • Shared caps on every head: Poison at 10% damage, HP Burn ticks capped, MAX HP damage capped at 10% of the head's HP per hit, Warmaster and Giant Slayer capped per attack.

Part by part

  • Decrease DEFcoreRaw damage is the only kind that works here.
  • ShieldusefulShields keep you alive without triggering the MAX HP destruction that heals do.
  • Block DebuffsusefulStops the Heal Reduction landing at all.
  • Poison does almost nothing and HP Burn ticks are capped: bring hitters, not damage-over-time.
  • Kill it early when it is up: Speed of Decay wipes your debuffs off the other heads every four turns.
  • Decapitating Decay heals your whole team for 30% and restores destroyed MAX HP.
