Scarlet Walkers
+75% Garnet Damage
+3% All Crab Damage
No Maximum Level
  • Increases Garnet Damage granted by mutations by 75% per level.
  • The very first level when you unlock gives you a double bonus, so you start with 150%
  • Mutation damage adds up into one big bonus, so adding this 75% to an existing bonus of 500% would total 575%.
  • 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,
  • Increases the mutation damage bonus of ALL crabs by 3% per level.
  • The genes "Mutation Infusion" and Gene Lab's "Mutation Specialization" ALSO multiply this damage bonus. This is the only secondary bonus impacted by Mutation Infusion and Mutation Specialization.
  • This second bonus is added into the big mutation bonus, it is not multiplied - so this 3% added to an existing bonus of 575% would give you 578%.

Commentary

This is a somewhat unique mutation in that it gives Garnet crabs a double-impacting bonus while also being the only mutation to receive double benefit from Mutation Infusion genes. On top of that, it's pretty cheap to upgrade compared to many of the other mutations, making this a good dumping ground for extra DNA that you aren't sure what to do with.
