Commentary

Eventually you will max out another mutation - Stalagmite Pincers - which decreases the cooldown of Genetic Split and allows you to purchase enough of this mutation to have "Permanent Genetic Split". Genetic Split is the most powerful ability for increasing your overall damage, so you want it running as long as possible. The only downside is this is the most expensive of the ability duration mutations and will take a new player quite a while before they will reach the goal.
