The testing which I did before writing the guide revealed the same kinds of results. Hydra's are so strong that they really dont benefit from any of the traditionally strong blesses like W/F. I am surprised tho that you would even consider Astral bless tho - the heads of the Hydra are basically the same effect as Twist Fate so its a lot of points wasted IMO.

I thought the same at first, but as I said: it showed up to make a huge difference. Yes the twist fate is a bit similar to the heads, that is what makes it powerful. Hydras often get attacked first and then gets to counterattack. Having all the heads left makes a big difference. It also reduces the number of permanently beheaded hydras a lot. try yourself.

I would also recomend A6D9. Tried it and it works great. But I still think astral wins the day in late game.
