It's beautiful and currently the only 'black' model of the old world Hydra.
It's also very confusing to tame. Upon arriving to Alcaz, there were none to be seen. Swimming out to Dreadmurk Shore, however, brought up a whopping amount of them on my minimap- four. They have a phasing issue still uncorrected after years of their quest being gone. Yet, you can still see them in the Dreadmurk Shore area. Swimming temptingly close into 40 yard range are two of those four.
Yes, people, only four Strashaz Hydras remain.
You can only tame two of them, and one of those two is rarely in the right position.
This means that your best shot is taming ONE of these hydras, and they have around 7-10m respawn if you get this wrong. I spent about 40 minutes on these guys before figuring it out.
You will need a Battle Horn and patience.
Included is a screenie of the two Hydras you can tame. Skull is the preferred one, but X is doable.

When he comes into range, crank that Battle Horn. This is the issue- he may path into range and sit there for a while, or he may instantly go in and out, wasting your horn CD. When he finally aggros, dont worry about traps or anything. Tame! TAME! He may or may not phase out once he reaches Dreadmurk Shore, so TAME.
Hope this helped you guys out.
