I managed to tackle on the hydra at level 25, if you dare to believe that. However, my pawn was a mage, I was a strider, and the main thing is, I massacred the hydra pretty quickly. The abilities I used to fight with are as follows(keep in mind these are the only things I used against it)...

Me(STRIDER):

BOW - Mighty Bend(upgraded version of Full Bend, just faster version)

BOW - Fivefold Flurry(upgraded version of Therefold Arrow)

BOW - Fracture Dart(Upgraded Version of Splinter Dart I believe)

CORE - Double Vault

CORE - Quick-Loose

AUGM - Dexterity

AUGM - Endurance

AUGM - Damping

AUGM - Grit

AUGM - Arm-Strength

Pawn(MAGE/SORCERER):

Fire Boom of any level(higher preferred)

Ingle/Levin of any Strength(High or Grand of these is preferred)

Climb atop the first broken pillar using a double jump. Your practically invincible here. Constantly use Fracture Dart, aiming at their necks. Your aim is to rid of each head asap, then massacre the body after all 4 heads are dead. You can use Throwblasts to get the heads that are closer to you that you can't reach with 'Fracture Dart'. If the hydra is in subission(any enemy that is in submission means they can't do diddly-squat for a period of time, and they take massive damage towards any type of attack, or their defense just drops.), you can just drop Throwblasts on it till it's dead. Imo, the wargs are more annoying to face head on. I'd grab the loot from the Hydra and liftstone out, unless you don't mind wasting spare time just for their loot as well.
