[quote=“Thwap, post:5152, topic:42”]Guys I think I dun goofed with mutations.
So I’ve decided I’d like Eater of the Dead, so I can eat the dead. To that end I’ve been trying to cross the rat threshold by injecting myself with every rat serum I can find. Except I’m a munchkin so I save scum to avoid anything particularly bad. Oh and along the way I injected a little lizard serum because whatever, but only a few.
Well sometimes I would seem to break the threshold on injections where I got a lot of bad stuff, but not on good ones. So finally I was just like “screw it” and used debug to give myself dozens of rat serums which I began binge-injecting over the course of days in game. Fifty serums later I had a bunch of random reptile mutations and god knows what else but hadn’t seen anything to make me think I’d broken any thresholds.
Point is, I know my save scumming probably threw something off and that’s fine, whatever, I don’t expect the game to be designed around playing this way. I have enough purifier saved up to make myself normal again, so in the future how should I go about crossing the rat threshold and getting EotD?[/quote]
You wanna be a particular mutant, aim into that category. Five orals and four serums were enough the last time I tested it. What killed your attempt here was the Lizard stuff. Breaching is basically an X in Y where your X is the strength in the chosen category, and Y is your strength in all categories.
Diversification is NOT your friend if you wish to breach the Threshold.
