==Overview==
==Overview==
The Transcendent Hydras resided within [[2082 Volantis]] under the command of Belmon Transcendent Mind, who they followed through into a [[Warp Gate]] that led to [[Europa]]. The one who accompanied Belmon during its initial invasion was destroyed by a [[Fireteam]] of [[Guardian]]s.

==Gameplay==
==Gameplay==
A Transcendent Hydra accompanies Belmon in the final fight of [[The Glassway]] [[Strike]]. It is much smaller than the [[Vex Mind]], and is a [[Major]], but still has an enormous health pool comparable to an [[Ultra]]. It is also notable for not using an [[Aeon Maul]], but being outfitted with dual [[Slap Rifle]]s that fire [[Arc]] bolts. While Belmon patrols the outer area, the Transcendent Hydra will use its smaller size to chase after the players in the enclosed sections of the area, alongside waves of other Vex. Much like Belmon, it will escape into the void when brought down a third of its hit points.
To intiate the final encounter, players are required to eliminate the [[Fallen]] lingering near the portal. As the portal opens, the Transcendent Hydra will emerge first with Vex reinforcements followed by [[Belmon, Transcendent Mind]], who will proceed to bombard the players with Aeon Maul blasts.  


The Transcendent Hydra will return twice during the fight, first leading a wave by itself, and then accompanying Belmon again for the final wave. However, if it is dealt enough damage very quickly, it is possible to kill the Transcendent Hydra before it has time to escape, making it skip a phase. Both Belmon and the Transcendent Hydra must be destroyed to complete the battle.
Within the lair are two corridors to the left and right of the entrance. As players enter these areas, the Transcendent Hydra will chase them around. After dealing significant damage to the Hydra, it will disappear to leave Belmon outside.
 
Later it returns to battle with more Vex reinforcements after Belmon takes damage. The consist of [[Goblin]]s, [[Hobgoblin]]s, [[Minotaur]]s, [[Harpy|Harpies]], [[Wyvern]]s and [[Fanatic]]s. Once all the enemies have been killed and the Hydra has taken enough damage, it will retreat and Belmon will spawn again with more Vex reinforcements. Players are required to eliminate the new wave of Vex and deal more damage to Belmon to begin the final phase.
 
In the final phase Belmon and the Transcendent Hydra will both spawn together with another group of reinforcements. Both are required to be killed to end the Strike.
