Please Whitelist This Site?
I know everyone hates ads. But please understand that I am providing premium content for free that takes hundreds of hours of time to research and write. If I can't make at least a little bit of money to support my family via this site, I'll have to stop working on it.
One alternative is to become a RuneScoop member. It's cheap, you get access to all of the site with no ads, and you help keep the lights on around here.
If you want to use this site for free, I'd be grateful if you could add RuneScoop to the whitelist for Adblock. To do so, just open the Adblock menu and select "Disable on Runescoop.com". Or go to the Tools menu and select "Adblock Plus Preferences...". Then click "Add Filter..." at the bottom, and add this string: "@@http://*runescoop.com/*". Then just click OK.
Thanks for your understanding!
Sincerely... Qeltar, aka Charles, your hard-working host and RuneScape guide-writer extraordinaire. :)

Hydra
The hydra is a rather odd monster for a couple of reasons.
First, it’s the only example I can think of where a monster that is a summoned familiar above ground was turned into an aggressive monster in Daemonheim. It looks identical to the hydra you can get to do your bidding at level 80 Summoning, appearing like a small, two-headed, reddish-brown reptile with scales and fins.

Second, the hydra has an attack that looks like a pair of magical fireballs being spewed from its two heads, yet this is actually a ranged attack. Not even a magic-based ranged attack, either, despite other monsters having those.
Finally, the hydra is weak to slash attacks and very strong to stab attacks, which based on its body type, isn’t what you might expect.
