Mutant Varieties

Cave Mutants

Blind underground creatures adapted to complete darkness. Can reduce their glow for camouflage. Their skin is completely depigmented, and sensitive filaments grow on their back for hunting in darkness. Can blind victims and apply wither effect, but have no armor.

Mesa Mutants

Massive and resilient creatures capable of withstanding enormous damage. Inflict long-lasting negative effects.

Swamp Mutants

Poisonous creatures with prominent fangs and vegetation on their back. Their deadly venom causes poisoning and nausea. Have reduced health but increased speed and strength.

Jungle Mutants

Creatures with spikes and thagomizer tail. Their poison weakens and paralyzes the player. Balanced health, strength and speed stats.

Aquatic Mutants

Adapted to aquatic environment. Can drain victim's oxygen and pull them to the bottom. Incomplete forms transform into aquatic variants when in water.

Warped Mutants

Insect-like creatures capable of becoming invisible. Their poison combines glowing, slowness and levitation effects.

Ender Mutants

Some of the strongest variants with elongated body and large horns. Their poison blocks positive effects and disables hardened steel armor abilities.

Crimson Mutants

Fast and strong creatures with powerful poison combining fire and wither. Have low durability like netherrack.

Creature Types

Runners

Most common mutants appearing from pigs, sheep, cows, horses and donkeys. Have no special abilities except poison.

Walkers

Powerful mutants from piglins, pillagers, players and villagers. Compensate for weak poison with high knockback attacks.

Poisoners

Terrifying lizards with the strongest poison among all mutants. Appear from witches and spiders.

Enforcers

Tank-like monsters with enormous damage and thick armor that allows projectiles through. Appear from ravagers and hoglins.

Marauders

Specialize in destroying armor, dealing 40 times more damage to equipment. Appear from wolves and foxes.

Prowlers

Cat-like mutants waiting for victims in shadows. Grab prey with jaws and crush them.

Raptors

Pack hunters existing in alpha and beta versions. When alpha specimen is present, receive pack bonuses and additional effects.

Infectors

Rare mutants from endermen, infecting everything around and transforming biomes.

Incomplete Forms

Intermediate stages of infected creatures that later transform into full mutants depending on biome.

Weapons

Katana

Fast and destructive weapon made from hardened iron, mutant bones and biome ingots. Has 8 variants with special effects and stylish burning element.

Slayer

Massive slow swords with huge damage. Each of 8 variants has unique ability activated by right-clicking when wearing biome armor.

Battle Hook

Multifunctional weapon combining sword, pickaxe and axe. Deals moderate damage with poison effect.

Armor

Pathogen Armor

Affordable set made from incomplete hides and creature bones. Protects from pathogen disease, wither effect and gives speed bonus.

Scale Armor

6 variants (jungle, swamp, mesa, ender, crimson and warped) with different potion effects and +20% damage with weapons of same biome.

Mutant Steel Armor

Mod's strongest armor with jump and speed boost, immunity to poison of its biome and +35% damage with corresponding weapons.

Mechanics

Catalyst

For creating hardened chitin ingots, a catalyst is needed - non-craftable block found in altar-like structures. Place chitin horn, phantom membrane and netherite ingot in special slots and activate with lightning.

Pathogen

Black liquid infecting creatures upon contact. Infected mobs turn into incomplete forms - aggressive versions of themselves capable of infecting others. Over time they evolve into full mutants depending on biome.

Recommendations

It's recommended to install JEI (or similar recipe viewing mod) and reduce field of view effects since the mod actively uses speed and slowness effects.
