Get someone who can interrupt. Generally a Mesmer or Ranger, but other classes can do it too.

Just watch what they cast - they like to cast Meteor Shower (iirc). So if you stand still.. you'll have 2-4 of those spells planted on your head... which explains why you die :P

If you don't have interrupt's.. watch what they are casting.. and run when they finish the metoer shower...

Are you talking about Mahgo Hydras or Hydras in crystal desert?

The Mahgo Hydras use phoenix and meteor shower and the normal hydras use fireball, meteor and inferno.

The normal hydras are just glass cannons, they have weak armor and hp, they have 3 powerful attacks with slow recharge, so if you can survive the first part, the rest is cake. The only annoying spell is meteor because it is almost auto aim and knocks you down. It can't use inferno when it is far from you and fireball is inaccurate at long range.

with ur group make sure u dont group up so the hydras fireball + meteor doesnt kill all of you. as soon as u see 1 cast a quick spell. not to long cuz it will get interupted by metor. after a meteor lands on ur head. then dish out the long cast times cuz thats it. and have monk start breezing people
