Mutators

️Mon May 09 2016

Mutators are special conditions added to maps in Co-op Missions rotated on a weekly basis every Monday. They reward players with bonus experience depending on the difficulty. They were introduced in Patch 3.3.0.

Current Mutation[]

Grave Danger[]

Deathless monstrosities besiege the Xel'Naga Temple. Amon's forces give rise to the infested as they fall, and will eventually overwhelm your fortifications through brute force. Kill the Void Reanimators before they raise the dead, and do whatever it takes to survive the onslaught.

This mutation applies to "Temple of the Past".

Void Reanimator: Void Reanimators wander the battlefield, bringing your enemies back to life.

Walking Infested: Enemy units spawn Infested Terran upon death in numbers according to the unit's life.

Transmutation: Enemy units have a chance to transform into more powerful units whenever they deal damage.

Overview[]

Mutators are special conditions that bring additional challenge and diversity to existing Co-op Missions. Mutators can vary wildly, from having to fight a completely cloaked army, to dodging lava erupting from the ground. Mutators vary on a weekly basis. Each week, players have the chance to take on a Weekly Mutation where several Mutators are applied to a Co-op Mission. The mutation will be available for seven days with a break before the next one begins. Difficulty levels can still be selected, as can normal Co-op Missions, with the ability to toggle between the two modes.^[1]

Bounties[]

If players complete the weekly mutation, they will be awarded a tiered XP "bounty" bonus based on the difficulty level selected. Completing a weekly mutation on a higher difficulty level will award the cumulative sum of all XP bonuses up to that level. For example, completing the weekly mutation on Hard will award the sum XP bonus of Casual + Normal + Hard.^[2]
