If you cast hydras do the abundance of shots from the hydra generate counters from a boss? I imagine that you will have LOTS of little fireballs flying around and if they all cause counters that could be messy.

never played with this skill before.

Yes, the hydras create counters, but the counters target the hydra. It's pretty easy to place the hydras away from you, and it's really handy to force a boss to DragonFlight counter themselves into your Blaze patches even though they're being mobbed by a pack of noobs :)

Hey folks, total noob to the mod here, but what's a 'counter', exactly? Is there a spot where I can read up on all this?

Most bosses have a chance to cast a spell/counter when they take damage or get hit. I guess it makes the game more challenging and balances against glass cannon characters.

Is there a place I can find a list of counters/counter abilities or something similar?
