So i was looking at the progress and i seen that they have accepted '[200] Hydra spikes bounce grenades back'. NO, just No!
To be fair i think hydras are fine the way they are. 2 or 3 Hydras anda corridor or room, placed with 1 or 2 wips and a crag can hold off a few marines as it is and stop a pushin its tracks. Tohave hydras have this ability will basicly make whips half as usefull as they are while making hydras Very difficult to kill. Just think if there was a small room like brew room, with 4 hydras in, The only way to do damage to them is nade them. Now give them this ability and you would have to use flamers. To get that close you would defianatly be in range of those 4 and befor you get to kill one you would be dead.the only way to kill them this way would be to snipe at a very long range but there isnt many opportunities to to that with out been killed befor but an alien or arcs, which would mean it would be hard to pass them untill later in the game.
Whats your opinions on this?

All the bugs in pivotal tracker have the ladybird symbol in them while features have a star. If this task had a start icon it would mean that there was a new feature implemented.
That would be neat, also an option to spend PRes (+use) to evolve Bombard, or automatically get them for Mature Whips. It would be like having Bile Bomb for Gorge again :P
But yeah, I hope Hydra get a buff or two when they become limited by Hive count/per Gorge.
It's nothing for a Khammander to jump out and go Gorge for a bit. . . I do it all the time now with the 2TRes per Cyst nonsense in the latest build

Yeah, but more of a mini whip, with half the range and half the damage and costs about 20 pres.
Also they could be given the ability to build Mini Crags with 2/3rds the HP as a normal crag and heals 1/3 less then a normal crag.
