OVERVIEW
Mutations are here! Build your character with Fallout 76's dynamic trait system, featuring custom effects, animated icons, a brand-new pip-boy tab, and trait-like benefits/downsides!
ESL-FLAGGED ESM | NO VANILLA EDITS | COMPATIBLE WITH EVERYTHING | INSTALL AT ANY TIME
BREAKDOWN
You have a chance to develop mutations by being irradiated, or by taking serums. You can find in-universe documentation on the effects of each mutation, or you can use your existing knowledge of Fallout 76 to determine which mutations you want. I recommend learning about mutations naturally through playtime, but a cheat-sheet has been provided below.
Every mutation in this mod is present in Fallout 76, except for the Rad Walker and Vengeful Rage mutations, which are cut content from Fallout 76 and have been restored with their originally intended effects.
LIST OF MUTATIONS
You can use the Gene Starcher to lock/unlock your current mutations. You will discover the gene starcher during the main quest. (Hint: Listen to Virgil).
NOTES
You will encounter locations where you can purchase serums as you play through the main quest.
Mutations are largely faithful to their 76 version, with minor changes to account for factors such as player speed, balancing, and gamemodes.
As of v3.0.0+, this mod automatically has support for Immersive Animation Framework if you have the mod installed.
Mutations are effectively Fallout 76's version of dynamic traits, they come with upsides and downsides, and have been balanced as such. Certain mutations have stronger benefits than debuffs, and vice versa. This is intentional, but if a mutation feels too skewed either way, let me know in the posts tab and I will balance it as needed.
You can configure features such as mutation chance, Rad-Away mutation cure chance, and mutation-specific options in the MCM.
