Brotato Mutant Build Tips
Character Type
The mutant’s big positive is a 200% XP gain, meaning it will level up really quickly and improve its stats. To counter this, shop items are 50% more expensive.
Upgrades
Early on, increasing ranged damage is the best choice with some attention given to Luck and attack speed. As the game moves on this can shift more to increasing Life Steal, attack speed, and damage instead of Luck.
Weapons
The preferred weapon to go with is the shotgun, this is a stronger gun capable of taking enemies down in the earlier waves. Its weaknesses will be ironed out by the XP buff of this character before it becomes much of an issue. You can also get an SMG or 2 to add as you gather more weapons but Shotguns should be capable of getting the job done.
Items
In the earlier waves, items that further increase the XP gain like Lens and Scar are ideal. As things progress focus instead on the Bandana, Wings, Alloy, and Ricochet as they further increase your damage output.
Unlocks
By winning a run as the Mutant you will win an Octopus Item for future runs. This increases Max HP by 12 and Life Steal by 5% with a -8% critical chance to offset the bonuses. This is an item that can be useful for other builds.
