Scarlet Pincers
+90% Garnet Damage
5% Smokescreen Cooldown Reduction
Maximum Level: 10

  • Increases Garnet Damage granted by mutations by 90% per level.
  • The very first level when you unlock gives you a double bonus, so you start with 180%
  • Mutation damage adds up into one big bonus, so adding this 90% to an existing bonus of 500% would total 590%.
  • The genes Mutation Infusion multiply this coloured damage by 10% per gene, to a maximum of 110%.
  • The Gene Lab's Mutation Specialization further add to this multiplication by 5% per level, with no maximum,
  • Decreases the cooldown of ability Smokescreen by 5% per level.
  • The default cooldown is 30 minutes (1800 seconds)
  • When maxed out, you would have 990% bonus mutation damage for Garnet crabs and queens (multiplied by bonuses described above), and the cooldown on Smokescreen would be cut in half.

Commentary

When combined with the ability duration mutation - Verdant Wings Carapace at level 290 - you will have "Permanent Smokescreen" which isn't a bad thing to have as it makes sure everything is doing critical damage.
