On a similar note, is the duration of Hydra always 10 seconds? If so, what's the maximum number of Hydras possible on the screen ar once? If it's one per second, is that 10 hydra's at once???
Depends on the attack. I mean, speaking from a purely theoretical standpoint, if an Amazon hits an 8/2 strafe (10 arrows in 26 frames), and every single one of those arrows triggers a Hydra (extremely, extremely, extremely unlikely- but theoretically possible), and the "hitch in the giddyup" between strafes is 6 frames (just a number I threw out there), then that's 10 hydras every 32 frames, it it would be *THEORETICALLY POSSIBLE* to get 80 Hydras on screen at once. Of course, that would never happen. Of course, disregarding the fact that you'd need a monster capable of SURVIVING 80 hydras who didn't once put you in blocklock, d/a/e lock, hit recovery, or death, the odds of 80 hits and triggers on a strafer are probably similar to the odds of Ball dropping 4 zods and a CoA in one drop.
From a practical standpoint, using my Zealsorc, I had no problem getting 10 Hydras onscreen at once.
