King Hydra attacks twice per turn.
King Hydra is the first of three bosses that you need to beat before fighting the final boss. Avoid using high MP spells like Omniheal so that you can still cast spells in the next fights.
Since you want to conserve MP, you'll want to rely on the Sage's Stone to heal the party. Thankfully, this is a really powerful item that heals 75~94 HP to the entire party.
King Hydra's only threatening move is its regular attack since Flame Breath no longer does significant damage. If you're struggling to beat this boss, you can cast Kabuff to reduce the damage of its bites.
