I'd see if I could beat thunderhead and then use Mo/W smiter/protection with balanced stance.

My necro/mesmer hunts mahgo hydras WAY too often... as a result, they don't give me gold-items no more My toon can usually take 3-5 at a time... gets pretty crazy too!

EDIT: Aren't Mahgo hydras in Perdition's Rock?

*Smiles* There are a few good places left to farm, trust me on that. Though unfortunately even my favorite spot is slowly noticing a decline. This game is getting too big. ^_~

Yeah, Mesmers eat all forms of hydras for breakfast. I almost feel sorry for them... But then I remember how rarely anyone asks me to group with them, and I just continue on, solo farming with my Mes...

To answer your original question about how to kill Mahgo's with a necro/x, I use life transfer + life siphon. Both combine to -10 life degen on the hydra and +10 health regen to you. This should be enough to keep you alive while you cast spells and dodge. Other life-stealing curses like Insidious Parasite should also increase your survivability.

with a ranger you can concuss shot them really easily since they absolutely adore meteor shower (which has a 2 hour cast time).

then you can simply attack him to death, although its not very good because they go in packs. heck if you want to solo farm mo/w is the way to go (in uw)
