Hydra Farming

[b]2nd Jan 2016 Patch 2.1 Grimoire Points Available:[/b]15 [b]Mission:[/b] The Black Garden (Mars) [b]1.[/b] Run through the mission until you reach the objective [i][b]"scan the vex confluxes"[/b][/i] (the final dark zone before the final boss in the vanilla story) [b]2.[/b] Continue past the vex and drop bellow into the big court area. [b]3.[/b] Via right where the hydra spawns [b]4.[/b] Kill it and step in the centre of the hydra death blast. [b][u]Notes[/u][/b] [b]*[/b] Reduce your armour as much as possible and start the mission with a heroic modifier. The hydra death blast will not kill you (it leaves you with a slither of health). Reducing your armour and playing with a heroic modifier, the adds will kill you quicker. Alternatively, you can kill yourself with a grenade or rocket launcher. [b]*[/b] kill the hydra with a weapon you need kills with to complete a grimoire card in the inventory > 'X' weapons folder [b]*[/b] I was able to kill a hydra every 40 seconds. It will take 2 hours and 47 minutes to kill 250 Hydra netting 15 Grimoire points. -Mega :]

    I realise this is an old thread but I found another place where you can farm hydra kills while doing patrol on Mars. If you go to Valley of the Kings, a hydra spawns every few minutes near the gate that leads to the black garden. I haven't timed it exactly so I'm not sure if it would be a faster method than yours but it is an alternate way of doing it without wiping. A few minotaurs and hobglobins appear with each hydra so you can also farm those kills too if you need them.
