Sorry about that Openpilotcc3d, I get carried away when hydras comes up in discussion.

I also run a doc and I have the same problem. Here is what I've found to be helpful:

- Upgrade the doc's level so it is fast enough to move into cover quickly when you see the hydra or hear it launching

- This may sound obvious but I always walk near cover or on the edge of walls, etc so it is more difficult to get hit. It is useful to know some good hiding spots in each map against hydras.

- Tag along behind a shielded ally so I can use their energy shield for cover and provide them with support fire at the same time

- I've also walked behind another ally just so that the hydra user will probably target my ally instead of me. Not proud of it but I do it sometimes if the ally is a Leo or Ancilot that can take the hits.

Above all, always know where the hydra shooter is located so you can keep an eye on the missiles.

If all else fails, you can always make a hydra doc and annoy the red into oblivion. :)
