Tactics
- Positioning. Tank Hydrospawn against a wall so its strong knockback scatters the group less.
- AoE damage. Its water attacks hit multiple targets; keep group heals ready.
- Submerge. The boss becomes immune for a short while — wait it out, don't waste burst.
- On x5 with level 57–60 gear Hydrospawn is a low threat if the group stays together.

Why this boss matters
Hydrospawn is a filler but useful source of level 57 blue gear and XP on the way to Alzzin in the East wing.
