The unscrambled model of the new hydra is now amongst Wowhead's models, in case you want to try out all the animations for yourself:

Oh my god. The death animation reminds me of an overdramatic puppy playing dead.

The torso does seem a little broad/large, but I imagine it's harder to balance proportionality that looks natural for a creature with three heads. Out of curiosity, is the skeleton based off of one that already exists?

I've already named my king krush Harryhausen, so I'll need to come up with another fitting for one of those new hydra.

Doubt it since if I recall correctly there's currently no creatures with three heads with four limbed body that also has a tail. Also the animations don't look familiar at all, besides maybe the run animation being slightly reminiscent of the Tol'vir? Regardless, I'm pretty sure I'd remember that swag-walk animation if I'd seen it somewhere before. :D

What do you feed that thing? Miracle-Gro? It does look cool though and I'd tame one.

I actually like the new Hydra and it's animations a lot, especially the running and swimming ones. Although the walking one still makes me laugh a bit when I see it.
It would be neat if we could get some white and violet colors of it though.

But, I'm still going to prefer the Azeroth hydra over this one. Mostly because I love the serpentine look of it, and especially it's colors.

You know it's going to be done to death but I kind of want to tame one just so I can have a macro that makes me yell out "HAIL HYDRA!" every time I summon my hydra..... XD

Awesome hydras now all we need is roughly 15/30 more stable slots for draenor's majority of new beast skins and families ill prolly get one azeroth hydra, one outland hydra a draenor hydra, Chimaeron and a plant hydra which i will probably name Biollante unless of course the only hydra skins tamable are the draenor ones and i noticed the draenor hydra's heads dont fight except the plant one because its based on the azeroth hydra and its animations
"Y’know, Taurens are born hunters. You ever see a Tauren catch a salmon out of a stream? It really is quite exciting. You ever see a Tauren stalk a python? 'Course you haven't. That's because Tauren are so adept at blending in with their surroundings."

I may be wrong, but I would not get your hopes up too highly for the plant "hydra" ;) I'm pretty sure it's still going to be a plant.

I'd avoid doing this, actually, as it'll probably get you reported (and is generally a kinda not cool thing to do) because, in Marvel, Hydra was a Nazi group that promoted Nazi standards. Hydra was created literally so they could keep writing about Nazis once they were considered "irrelevant".

So just, like... a heads up.

Which is why, for my kaiju-themed stable on an alt, I settled with naming a ravager after Biollante. The flydras do make me think of her Rose Form, which is awesome.

Well, no need to give up hope that fast. We have Shale Spiders and Fire Spiders. We'll also get a Hydra which is really just a mess of limbs and flesh mixed together in a patchwork creature.


Flydras are possible, but not expected. It's more of a "It could happen, but it also couldn't.". There is no indicator towards either. The same way we didn't expect the undead eagles or shale spiders. Or the same way undead eagles and shale spiders were a-okay for some inexplicable reason, and the undead wind serpent, raptors and gyreworms weren't. It's more of a "we'll have to see what Blizzard thinks of it."
