Alchemical Hydra

The Alchemical Hydra is a boss found in the lower level of the Karuulm Slayer Dungeon in Mount Karuulm, requiring level 95 Slayer to kill. Unlike normal hydras, the Alchemical Hydra can only be killed while on a hydra Slayer task, which are only assigned by Konar. See down below for more information.

KILLING ALCHEMICAL HYDRA

Firstly, get in the safe spot position in the south-east corner of the Alchemical hydra room. You can stay here the entire fight.

The Alchemic Hydra can attack with two attack styles.

• Magic = Looks like 3 lines of streaks
• Range = Green arrow

The Alchemic Hydra does 3 ranged attacks, then 3 magic attacks, the order in which it attacks is random. Sometimes it also spits out toxic waste, you don't have to worry about it when you're in the safepot. But this does not count as either a ranged or magic attack. Let me give you an example. Hydra attacks in this order: R-R-R-TW-R-M-M-M. Even though Hydra has already done 3 ranged attacks, a Toxic Waste attack will let Hydra do one more of the attacks it was previously doing. This also works the same way for magic, in this case it may do even 4 ranged or 4 magic attacks.

Hydra has 4 phases. I will explain them down below.

Phase 1: 100%-75% HP. Cycles between 3 ranged and 3 magic attacks. (It's random what attack style is first)

Phase 2: 75-50% HP. Cycles between 3 ranged and 3 magic attacks. (Starts according to where it left off)

Phase 3: 50-25% HP. Cycles between 3 ranged and 3 magic attacks. (Starts according to where it left off)

Phase 4: 25-1% HP. The Alchemic Hydra is now enraged. Cycles between 1 ranged and 1 magic attack. (Starts according to where it left off)
