Mutation Combos

Introduction

Strong mutation builds are less about one power and more about overlapping answers.

Overview

• Mobility plus ranged damage
• Vision plus teleportation
• Extra limbs plus melee
• Regeneration plus armor
• Crowd control plus escape

Strategy

Read this entry as a decision map rather than a fixed script. Caves of Qud is procedural, and the correct answer depends on your route, faction state, available tools and how many exits you still have.

Synergies

• Escape options
• Faction reputation
• Relevant skills
• Equipment support
• Information tools

Weaknesses

The common failure is overconfidence: assuming a good build, item or route removes the need to scout. It does not. Qud keeps receipts.
