Hydra Pit
I have never seen a hydra pit/nest before. Should I go for it? I'm sure it could reap some decent rewards (IF I can clear it) since a 4-headed hydra drops 5 traesures and a 5-headed hydra drops 6 treasures. Neither I nor my ancestors have had any bettles to the death with a 6 or 7 headed hydra before though...

treasure means they drop only gold, and you have plenty of that. I have no idea what a 6 headed hydra can breath, but you will likely not be able to eat two breathes at once with 280 hp, so I'd say leave while you can

I reckon you are able for 6 headed hydras with 280 hp (so long as you can heal yourself somehow and so long as you have some resistances) Though hiding around a corner and bashing them one at a time is best. Now if it had been twelve or thirteen headed ones, well i think those two are among the nastiest monsters in the game even though they start showing up around dlvl 55.

I suppose I should have given a few details on my character before asking for advice eh? I'm obviously a lvl 31 Igh Elf Mage. I have all the elemental resistances, but not poison. I also have Resistances and Scarabatrices, so I can give myself resist poison (6-headed breathes poison). I also have an awesome crossbow and tons of bolts. I found a 6-headed elsewhere on this level (teled so I wouldn't risk waking the nest) and dispatched him without casting resistance (though he did damage me a with that breath). I would post a link to the char, but it won't let me, so you can look him up if you would like to see the whole dump.
