Benemut is the new rMut

[Sprucery]

My first Felid winner (FeNe) killed 7 orbs of fire without rMut (no shit) and didn't get a single mutation from them. Of course I used a lot of allies but still there were several moments when a malmutate attempt failed due to my cat already having 6 mutations (five from !benemut, one from helix). I was surprised that existing mutations protected me so well. Or was I just lucky...

You should try Xom. Not only he gave my recent felid a lot of mutations including the rMut one, but also teleninja'd the Orb for me so that i didn't even have to fight orbs of fire at all.

  Code:

 85132 | Zot:5    | XOM: 1-stop teleportation journey
 85135 | Zot:5    | Got the Orb of Zot
 85137 | Zot:5    | Noticed an ancient lich
 85138 | Zot:5    | Noticed an orb of fire
 85139 | Zot:5    | Yermak: Xom rocks
 85139 | Zot:5    | XOM: 1-stop teleportation journey

Xom did something helpful? I think you just discovered a major bug.

Wait, I thought that only random Mut gave you a small percent (6%?) increase of rMut.

You are telling me that BeneMut also protects from further Mutation ?

Every mutation you have affects how easily it is to get further mutated. Sounds like it also applies to malmutate.

Sequell> mutation[2/2]: When being mutated (not by a god or potion of beneficial mutation), you have a (current mutations)/15 chance of: (2/3 of the time): cancel the mutation, (1/3 of the time): remove a random mutation. This means your weirdness list is limited to about 20-24 lines; sorry, you can't have every non-exclusive mutation in the game.

Xom helps you more than he harms. Like by the end of the game your chaos knight who stuck with Xom will have a reealllly good mutation set.

Xom gets a bad rap just because he occasionally kills you.

At least he doesn't do it on purpose, right?
