Hydra Grepolis



Hydra's are very strong, slow moving, units. They are similar to the Trireme because they have both high attack and defense. They are currently the only naval mythical unit.

While many people think the Hydra is an amazing unit, in reality, it is just 5 Light ships with a higher defense. Although they have a higher defense then Light ships (300 for 5 LS vs 715 for 1 Hydra), one should take into the account of the amount of favor they cost to make. A good suggestion is not to attempt making these until later stages of game play, when you are making more Poseidon favor per hour due to a higher temple level.
