Hydragellos is One Mean Monster!
...Sorry, got a little carried away there. But I meant what I said. If you stab that thing enough times -- say, 15 million damage worth of times -- I should be able to use the jiggly chunks you lopped off to craft you your very own Hydragellos Maniacal Core.* I'll keep track of your total damage here so you can check it anytime.
And don't worry if you can't do that much damage; I'm sure I can scrounge up various prizes for everyone who participates, based on their overall damage dealt!
*One core per account; the 15m damage has to be from a single pet. You have until Thursday at 10pm. Good luck!

Right now it's completely impossible to battle, all efforts get lost when the battle is cancelled after 5 minutes of inactivity after not being able to re-load the page. Since I have very little time to battle, that's very disheartening -_-

Ugh. I'm on the bus and auto put Warwick instead of battle.
Can we get an edit button in the future? XD

I really hope the Warwick be extended. The site is constantly crashing and I can't do anything on site. Can't battle, quest, train my pets....

Still get the disfunctional message all the time. Right now I can't get to the healer to heal my pet.

Lots of refreshing, sure, but it’s still progressing. I’m at a measly 45k damage so far with my tier 8 pet. I should have been better prepared. :P

With all the lag and broken pages, I doubt I'm going to have the time to grind out the 15m damage with my T12. :/ Maybe next time.

I don't know how anyone actually accomplishes this, even without the lag. I've been training my pet for years and it'll still take me thousands of battles to get this done.

Make that "You have until Saturday" (at least), because we lost all 3 weekend days to lag and malfunction.

Anyone else still have to refresh their battle because moves aren't going through when it's been more then 3min?

Looks like Hydragellos is stomping around all over Subeta. Flees from the users who want to battle him. 😃
Still HTTP error 500 and "this page does not work" message all the time.

If this battle lag does not stop I think Subeta team needs to extend this challenge. This is horrible.

OMG I'm so tired of taking 5 times as long to lose each battle and having to keep hitting refresh over and over, not just for battles but everything else as well. Also giving up for a while, especially since there's no way I can get 15 million by Thursday any way. Good luck to the rest of you.

I forfeit this battle and I'm going offline for the rest of the afternoon. This is ridiculous. I'm having deja-vu of a non-operational site a few years back before they fixed it

Between the bad gateway errors and gateway timeout errors, the site is unusable. I can't even quest, let alone fight the hydragellos.

did a few battles but the lag is just to much for me right now! good luck to those going for it right now

This lag is hella unbearable. The site is barely functional and I can't battle or even quest.

Marika would need 362 battles, which is not that bad, but I find the lag too annoying at this point.

Came here to ask this tooI don't mean to be a downer but is something going to be done about the unbearable lag?
My battle pet is T10 and with this much lag I just straight up might not have enough time available to grind out 15m. Did you know if you're "inactive" for 5 minutes the Hydragellos battle times out? Learned that yesterday while waiting on my attack to go through 🙃

15mil damage is already a lot, and multiple HOURS of work. And that's totally fine. I'm more than happy to do THAT grind.
But it's incredibly disheartening to work on this when the site is timing out every other page, making what might have been 10 hours into 20+ hours worth of tedious grind. Especially for people (like myself) who do not have that amount of time to dedicate to this site in such a short deadline.
I'm sitting here trying to hit my goal for the day and the amount of time I projected is out the window, and I'm now eating into important time I need for other things. I realize that it's my choice to do that, but I'm just not having a good time being punished (unintentionally, not saying staff is doing this on purpose, please don't take it that way), in what feels like a decision between unbearable lag and waiting another 2+ years to HOPE for less lag for another attempt.

I hit 3m. I'm doing my best to get to 15m. I don't have to go against anyone else for the win. I just have to fight the lag, the grind, and myself. I can only hit for between 1k-1.5k but I can last a few rounds before getting knocked out. My weapons suck and my pet could be stronger but I'm determined. The sp doesn't matter. I just need to strap on my wrist braces.

Sneaky
Is it worth it to fight with a lower tiered pet (mine is tier 3) in the hopes of getting a small prize? I don't know what the lowest amount of damage a prize will be given for has been in previous years, and it doesn't cost as much to heal, but it's still as tedious as fighting the Mini Gelatins and the Gliders.

Well... if I got my math right I'll need ~7500 battles and ~82m sP for healing *looks into vault* and I'm only ~60m sP short of that :laughing:

1,000 damage is all fun and games till you realize it wants 15 million of it
Only have to throw my pet at him... 15,000 times. Easy peasy jelly squeezy. :sob:

While I potentially could yeet my poor boi against this monster 75,000 times...I don't think I could pay the 90mill sP to heal him ahahahaaaa
Someday in the future we will be strong enough to get that core *shakes fist at its gooey eminence*

Managed to get 1 million but it's totally impossible for me to get 15 by Thursday since I have to go back to work Monday morning and can only battle for a little bit each evening since I work all day. Darn. Good luck to the rest of you.

Looking forward to lots of Healer visits. Not going to get the core, that's a fact, but hopefully I'll get some kind of decent prize.

Did 2.5m damage in 1hr 15, roughly 2m spent on healing, should take about 12m, not too bad I guess haha

Done with Kilroy in 134 losses. Better than the 161 or so in 2019. Now lets see how SunDragon averages.

huh, that would take me 25000 tries and 73350000 sP in healing. guess, this really isn't for me then, haha. good luck to everyone!

I got a core last time the jelly war happened.
Was the damage the same amount or was it less damage???
I feel like it was less, but I don't remember.

So what about the "Gelatin Hero - Slay the Hydragellos!" achievement? will we ever get an answer about the situation with this achievement? since the last gelatin war I'm asking about and getting ignored.
it's clear that nobody can slay the Hydra right now, like in the past, so either retire it or change the requirement to "deal 15m damage" and give it to us.

Thank you @Lyn Now I could see it is not totally useless for me to battl ,against him, even I get stumped over every time I do 😊

We never decide the final prize breakdown ahead of time. The 15m damage for one core is set, but for everything else, we always look at all the damage stats, break them down into ranges, and assign prizes from there. That way if the top 100 people have done say, 10m damage and number 101 has done 9.9m, they don't get left out -- we try to make the ranges encompass all battlers who performed similarly.

Just to revive from the 23,077 battles I would need to do to reach 15 mill with an average 650 damage per fight would be 92mill. 😂 I’ll pass this round. Good luck to those with better chances than me!

Will there be additional prizes for top percent damage dealers or is it capped at 15 mil per pet with a set reward package.

It's 15m damage with a single pet. There's no cumulative damage prize(s) for all pets. Every pet will get individual rewards.

To hit 15mil i'd have to do ~86,200 fights 🙃 Whew, i'm happy with the pittance i get from doing what i've done xD

So reading the news post, it's 15 million damage between all your pets battling together. I get the only 1 Core per account, that's fine. Last time it let us get multiples of the loot below Core per pet if pets did enough damage individually to meet damage thresholds.
Just checking before I do something stupid like try to get 5 pets with 15 million damage each. Believe it or not there's more people this question applies to than you think.

Yeah...I know I won't be getting to 15mil...since I'd need to battle thousands of times each day. Ah well maybe the lesser prize(s) will be good too

Somehow I don't see myself battling this guy nearly 4000 times to get the core, so good luck to everyone else who can actually do more damage than me.
