i was hydra s1+s2
s1 hydra with 20 orb and 1 cold mastery
s2 full hydra it was awesome s2 with sunder making it walking over all areas.
I had it pretty optimized in s2 with 4facet juwelers gothic plate of the whale and obsession staff with +3 hydra etc etc
It ripped throu everything! especially bosses that on a slow-loading-day could die almost before you realized they spawned
I used FB in combination and keept fcr at 105, both for setting up all the hydras FAST and of course for FB speed...
Some areas I used FB more, some areas where extremely well suited for hydras! especially areas with alot alot of monster density I would utilize both and have a blast about it.
Cows was doable to, but my work laptop is to slow for it to be safe...
Also tested meteor... not really mana for hydra+meteor+fb and hydra+fb seemed a far superior approach to me in not just most, but all areas and situations.
Followed "all" TZ areas.... Blasted throu CS when an area I didnt like...
Favorite TZ areas;
Tal rasha tombs!!!!
halls of the dead in dry hills!!!
flayer jungle!!
cs!
stoney tombs!
Last one I could run as a hydra with insight or potting mana from lvl 50 with no other actual gear on... Fast!....
Baal is insanely fast... only slowed down by loading time between waves......
CS p8 is faster as lightning, but it was fun and not an issue at all.
