Comentario de Thottbot

This is the first boss of Serpent Shrine Cavern that you'll come across, accessible after killing around 3 big packs and 3 bog giants. However, lots of guilds skip him for he is more difficult than other bosses in the instance. You need two tanks geared out in 390 frost and nature resistance gear respectively. basically, he has two phases, a frost phase and a poison phase. Whichever phase he is in is dependent upon his position. He starts out being frost, and if you drag him out beyond the flags in front of him, he turns into his poison phase. In frost phase, he shoots out watery tombs on random people that would hit others close to him (so spread out). The entombed people will be stunned and take damage. In poison phase, he shoots out a dot at random people, which is less dangerous. However, during both phases, he'll be stacking a debuff on you over time that increases frost/poison damage taken by everyone (depending on phase). After it stacks 4 times, even the maintank with 390 resist will be taking massive damage, so you need to switch his phase. When you switch, tho, 4 elementals that hit around 4-5k on non-resisted players will spawn around him, so tanks need to pick them up. They have decent amounts of hp, so the raid needs to single target them down fast and dps Hydross before his phase needs to be changed again. There's also a dps fight for his enrage timer (10 minutes I believe?). Since he clears aggro when he phase shifts, the tank with the appropriate resist can pick him up easily, but the healers also need to watch out for healing aggro, and the dps'ers need to stop dps when switch is called (stopping dots at around 3 debuff stacks). All in all a very aggro-touchy fight, gl :).

Thx for info

Comentario de Thottbot

DPS won't be needing any resistance unless you can somehow pull the agro imo. Tanks will be needing good NR/FR gear.

Comentario de Thottbot

yeah it's not very hard to kill hydross , we were 25 man raid , he spawns minios and casts some spell's but i think Phantom lord was easyer dropped that cloth robe for spellcaster and idol for druid ...

Comentario de Thottbot

he is immune to taunt so its a good idea for 2 hunters to set up misdirect rotation and they can misdirect to the right tank after each phase since if 1 dot is left up could result in him going out or back in frost or nature form and then its a instant wipe.

Comentario de Thottbot

is it correct that there is no physical damage in the fight? Im looking to get a decent frost resistant set but simply dont have the money or time to get all the epic plate resist gear. Instead I was thinking I could buy whatever high level FR gear I find in the AH. Anyone know if that will work?

Comentario de Thottbot

to skip hydross just have a warlock, a shaman, and another head to lurker and summon the raid there. To do this have the shaman cast waterwalk on the warlock, the other, and himself. All 3 should drink noggenfogger until they get they 'light as a feather' buff or just use a parachute cloak. since you are not swimming, the fish will not spawn and kill you and since you slowly fell to the water, the fall damage wont make you lose your waterwalk buff. If you are a nub and somehow die just get the shaman to chain rez you all the way to a spot where you are out of the water to get a new waterwalking buff. All 3 players should be naked for this to save durability loss if something goes wrong and the warlock should bring about 30 shards for summoning.

we only kill hydross to spawn vashj. his loot is subpar and the fight is difficult to one shot. also it takes some time to build up two tanks with high frost / nature resist.

just a note - you do not have to clear the trash between the entrance of ssc and hydross. if you kill lurker first you can basically just go straight to hydross after without clearing any additional trash.

hydross the unstable solo'd by a warlock
My God. Nerf Dots.

Comentario de Thottbot

Warlocks should use seed of corruption, and tanks gather everything up into one big lot. makes killing his adds alot easier.

Comentario de Thottbot

I saw a warlock solo this boss o.O

Comentario de Thottbot

A warlock soloed this guy,
Here's the link to the youtube video.

I think the glitch, where he goes through the wall has been fixed :(

Comentario de Thottbot

Not sure I believe the warlock solo thing because of that bug... I suppose he wouldn't use water prison because the lock has his aggro but even so.
Think its best to have mark of the bite on everyone in the raid when you fight this guy... just get some people to do heroic SP and go in and get the buff

If you can do this fight perfectly, then the rest of SSC should be dueble for ya..

downed by Impervious guild. US First kill http://www.impervious-guild.com

Comentario de Allakhazam

Seriously, get a life and stop wasting allakhazam space with useless $%^&wad stuff. What's really ^&*!ing embarrasing is that it appears to be actual members of the guilds posting that they were first. Let me be the first to golfclap...

Before someone who I just offended replies that I just did they same thing... Yep. I did. I apologize for THAT, nothing else.

This is a very fun encounter, its dynamic and complex and a great test for any guild.

I so so SO hate this boss. But not because the fight is hard. A little practice and he's no sweat.

I hate him because he made me spend a bloody fortune on resist gear and just to add insult to injury, he drops NO tank gear. ugh...damn your poisoned heart Hydross....

Comentario de Allakhazam

HF with this encounter...
he´s ``THE`` test for SSC like Vael in BWL..
when you own him, the ``SSC Door`` is open for more ^^

gogo try it xD

Hydross is where things get serious. He is a very complex boss, switching back and forth between two phases and spawning adds as he goes. There is even a constant stream of adds until he is aggroed, so just pulling him takes some work to get right.
