Strategy

 

it's rather simple to kill The Alchemical Hydra.

Lure it to the vents as seen below and avoid any poison/flames.

Green form -> red vent


Blue form -> green vent


Red form -> blue vent


Gray form -> vents = useless

Vents (Chemical Pools)

If you lure it over the wrong vent, it will have 50% increased damage towards you.
This damage increase is permanently on when the Hydra reaches the penultimate (gray) form.

Hydra attacks with Ranged and Magic, switching styles in a predictable pattern every 3 attacks.

The Hydra will change phases during the fight as follows:

100% HP - Green phase

Hits up to 17, and uses a special poison attack. (50% more damage if on wrong vent)

75% HP - Blue phase

Hits up to 35, and uses a special lightning attack. (50% more damage if on wrong vent)

50% HP - Red phase

Hits up to 35, and uses a special fire wall attack. (50% more damage if on wrong vent)

25% HP - Gray phase

Deals 50% more damage (up to 52) and has a 75% damage reduction which cannot be removed.

It is important to note that the Hydra has a 75% damage reduction by default, which can only be removed by luring it over one of the vents in the room (opposite of its current colour/style).

Poison

In this phase, the hydra appears green and should be lured to the red chemical vent.

The Alchemical Hydra will launch 4 or 5 poison blobs around the player's location after the first three attacks. These blobs target the player in a 3x3 area and continuing to stand on them will deal up to 12 damage per tick. These blobs have a short travel time, so if the player begins running as they are fired, it is possible to avoid their damage completely. The poison is fairly weak, but it is recommended to clear its aftereffects immediately.

Once the Hydra reaches 75% of its health, the bottom-right heads falls off and it changes its carapace to blue.

Lightning

Now with a blue appearance, the hydra should be lured to the green chemical vent.

Throughout the phase, the Hydra can launch four electrical projectiles around the room. The lightning always spawns in the same areas, but the order in which they appear varies each kill. The four pieces of lightning converge on the player's location. Getting hit by them will bind the player and deal up to 20 damage. It is not possible to tile skip to avoid them. Starting near the middle of the room and looping around one of the last lightning spawns, to escape the box they form, is the easiest way to avoid their damage. Players may also hug the northern wall and quickly move their way west while damaging the Hydra, which works especially well with a twisted bow due to its attack range and ability to avoid the lightning with ease.

Once the Hydra reaches 50% of its health, the bottom-left head falls off and it changes its carapace to red.

Flame

Now with a red appearance, the hydra should be lured to the blue chemical vent.

Throughout the phase, the Hydra will occasionally walk to the center of the chamber and face the direction the player is at. Once it reaches the center, the player is stunned, but they can still attack the Hydra. Upon reaching the center, it breathes 5x5 layer of fire to the player's sides based on their location before staring down the middle and launching a tracking fire. This tracking fire follows the player's movement, and travels significantly faster the further the player is (or if they start running). Getting hit by any of the fires will result in the player taking up to 20 damage, followed by a subsequent bleed of 5 damage for five hits. Moving onto another fire resets the bleed. Fires may be tile skipped, though it's generally advised against doing so. The Hydra does not attack until four seconds after the tracking fire is sent out.

Once the Hydra reaches 25% of its health, it changes its carapace to gray.

Enraged

There is no counter to the gray carapace. It does not need to be lured as its damage reduction ability does not reset.

The Hydra starts off this phase by attacking with the combat style opposite of what it used in the previous phase; if the previous phase ended with a magic attack, then it starts with ranged and vice versa. In addition, the Hydra's damage from its auto-attacks drastically increase, and changes attack styles after every attack it performs, regardless if it hits or not.

It also uses the poison attack from phase 1, though it occasionally sends one poison blob instead (on the tile the player is on). During this final phase the poison attack will always happen after 3 normal hydra attacks, then again after another 9. Continually pray flick until the Hydra is killed. It is recommended to keep prayer points up to prevent the possibility of the Hydra landing a hit on the player. If the Hydra is killed just as it sends an attack, then it will deal no damage.

Recommended Equipment

Will keep it updated to make it Alora-appropriate!

Shoutout to RFD for making the animated banner above.

would be v nice.

If we can play Alora on mobile, it will be insane. But it will probably require a lot of work and coding from scratch.

Would love Mobile since im always traveling around

Hold ur horses, one thing at a time haha

 

Hello everyone,
 
We’ve been working quietly for awhile now on a major project, and today we’re ready to share it with you: RuneLite is coming to Alora! This has been kept under wraps for the past few months, as we wanted to ensure that we were able to meet your expectations before making an announcement. Hundreds of hours of development have gone into this client, and we're now at a point where we can confidently share this news with all of you. 
 
We'd like to highlight why this was an unrealistic task to begin with, and why we decided to focus on it. Initially, the task of making RuneLite compatible with Alora essentially involved rewriting most of the RuneLite client to be compatible with ours. Unlike other OSRS-based private servers which connect to RuneLite right out of the box with minimal changes, the Alora client is unique in that it is quite different than OSRS' client, as it is merged with a high-definition RuneScape client from 2008, which is how we're able to uniquely provide the HD mode. Unfortunately, this made the RuneLite job an extremely daunting task.
 
Nonetheless, we understand that this feature has been requested time and time again, and many of you have grown accustomed to the features provided by RuneLite, so we made it our priority for the past few months to properly connect most of the plugins with our client. We believe this will change the experience on Alora dramatically, and further cement us as the best option when it comes to RSPS. With our wonderful community and high update frequency, RuneLite is the icing on the cake that will make us stand out even more than we already have.
 
There is still a decent amount of work to do, so unfortunately we can't provide a guaranteed ETA, but what we can say is that we are working to bring it to you as quickly as possible :)
 
Without further ado, here are some previews of the functionality that we've already implemented:
 

 

 

 

We hope that you guys are just as excited as we are about this, and we're looking forward to sharing more details & progress soon :)

 

Edit: Not an April fools joke btw!

 

Regards,

Omicron

2020 is the year of riots in Alora

 

Alora unofficial newspaper

The 29th of March 2020 02:13 PM server time

A new riot was brewing as a response to the latest update

*Sigh* Here we go again

 

The train took off from Falador which has become the standard starting point for Alora riots

 

Read all about the update here: [29/3/20] Slayer rework, Nightmare loot buff, Firelighters + Phoenix recolours & more!

 

 

What separates this riot from the previous is the objective.

The February riot wanted bonus xp or REEEE

Read about it here: Massive Alora Riot

 

This Riot had several complaints, but the riot wasn't necessarily unified on all topics

The objectives included:

1. Revert the slayer system
2. Free slayer skips for super donators+
3. Fix safe deaths
4. Revert the agility mark of grace system

And with the addition of a very enthusiastic riot-member, several new objectives shined through.

I'm of course talking about the maniac MADIBOO

 

 

 

 

This post-update riot actually started with s3iman almost losing 10B to a bug at the Nightmare.

Instead of reporting this bug he did what any other sane person would've done.
Start a riot

 

 

 

 

Here's some media from the riot:

 

Exaggeration is key to a successful riot

 

 

 

 

The riot had a quiet start with few participants

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not many players were "spamming" some even dubbed it the quiet riot

 

Players had different inputs and several players voiced their objection to the riot

 

 

 

Walking in circles in and around Edgeville bank is another requirement for a riot

 

 

 

This is by far my favorite moment from the riot

Remove Raids! - Give me aids!

 

 

 

Is it even a riot without overheads?

 

 

 

 

Train died 03:35 PM server time, due to the hype dying out

Or ..? 

 

Shortly after the riot died, Omicron quelled the remaining flames

Even the safe death issue was tended to

 

 

 

 

 

While I have your attention let me use this opportunity to make a small request

Thank you for reading

 

i can help you add me in-game

Go kill it a couple of times before using boosters. 
Once you get comfortable with the raid you can use the boosters and not waste em!

People don't run head in teams unless its duo. You only really want to learn for solos

@gim dab that would be a much better idea but I still have to learn how to run head efficiently, I've only done it twice so no one wants to really go with me. So I'm left with learning it solo via youtube vids lol

New series is out now in the youtube Forum check it out Hope you all enjoy!

Got my first pet on the game today, zulrah pet with #1 KC

I am very excited to show you all the new series i came up with and hope you all enjoy ill be putting the new youtube and video up once out!
