Talk:Deadly Hydra
Collected a few of its Crew/Crayon/Bubbles affecting hit/miss messages:
- The Hydra swallows crewman Jeffy Rutgers with one mouth and bo'sun mate Monk Mott with another.(Crew-2)
- The Hydra grabs midshipman "Pelican" Diaz with one mouth, and crewman Autumn Nite with another, swallowing them both whole. How rude.(Crew-2)
- The Hydra thumps its serpentine body on the deck, flattening both the midshipman and the best boy.(Crew-2)
- It tries to bite you in the leg, but two heads go for you at the same time and bonk together.(Neutral)
- By cleverly dodging, ducking, and weaving back and forth, you manage to make six of the heads braid themselves together. You point and laugh while dodging the other 94 heads.(Neutral)
- The Hydra lunges at the deck with a dozen starving mouths, but fortunately misses with ten of them. Unfortunately, two mouths swallow two crewmen whole.(Crew-2)

It got the jump on me at +507% initiative.--MogamboRanger 18:48, 12 January 2013 (CET)
I hypothesize that the drop rate of the Hundred Headed IPA is at least 25%. With +301.44% item drop, I encountered the Deadly Hydra 20 times and received 20 Hundred Headed IPA.

Update: With +213% item drop, I received 19/20 Hundred Headed IPA. Since this does not ensure the drop, the natural drop rate is at most 100/3.13=31.95%. With +202% item drop, I received 3/4 Hundred Headed IPA. With this (small amount of) data, a natural drop rate of 30% seems likely. Request more data. Skullrock (talk) 15:30, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
With +311% item drop, I received 18/18 Hundred Headed IPA. I am going to put 30% as the item drop rate. Skullrock (talk) 17:43, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
With +245% item I received 7/7 Hundred Headed IPA. With +230% I received 16/17 Hundred Headed IPA. The natural drop rate is then at most 100/3.3=30.3%. A drop rate of 30% is possible based on this data. Skullrock (talk) 03:25, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
With +281.75% booze drop I received 18/19 Hundred Headed IPA. So the item drop must be at most 26.2%? Maybe I had higher item drop in previous trials than I thought. I changed the item drop rate to be 25-30%. Skullrock (talk) 17:53, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
