Protects itself with a cubical shell that is elementally inert. Attacks are only effective when its elemental core is exposed. When HP is low, it splits into three crystalline "water droplets"that will move towards its core. Destroy these water droplets in time to prevent the revival of the Hydro Hypostasis. |

Similar to other Hypostasis bosses, the Hydro Hypostasis has a resting state, during which its core is vulnerable to attacks. Deal the most damage to the Hydro Hypostasis while in this state.
Once the Hydro Hypostasis reaches low HP, it will release water droplets that resemble hydro slimes in order to regenerate HP. Destroy all three water droplets to prevent the Hydro Hypostasis from regenerating!
Using Cryo attacks from Cryo Characters is the fastest way to destroy these water droplets.
