Mutators

Mutators are one of the several different types of enemy structures in Infested Planet.
__TOC__
== Description ==
In the Trickster's Arsenal DLC, mutators are found at more challenging difficulty levels (Abyss and Terminus), observable even by those without the DLC during Silver and Gold weekly challenges. Mutators attach to specific hives during map creation, remaining inert until destroyed. Destruction of a mutator triggers a new alien mutation, signaled by icons accompanying the mutator. Capturing a hive to which a mutator is attached results in automatic mutator destruction, leaving behind a BP crate.
== Countering ==
Mutators pose no direct threat. When possible, delaying destruction of hives with mutators may be advisable, as the ensuing mutations often present heightened challenges.
