Commentary

Boss reptiles drop gold equal to a multiplier that is based on their difficulty level - between 2x and 10x what a normal reptile at that distance would drop. However, that gold is NOT changed by the reptile gold mutation (Cerulean Walkers) because bosses have their own mutation. This one. The bonus per level is significant because you only encounter a boss every 10m. The gold dropped by the boss is also impacted by Stalagmite Walkers (All Gold). Golden Bosses - activated once you turn on the Gold Boss gene, also benefit from this mutation.
