The letter will inform Geralt of Professor Moreau and his lost workshop.
At the end of this quest, Geralt will enter the casket-like object shown in the picture above.
Using Professor Moreau’s equipment will enable you to acquire mutations.
kick off the character screen where you spend skill points received through leveling up.
Then go for the mutations icon (or press C) to open a new screen.
you’re able to now unlock mutations from a total of twelve available in the expansion.
Once a mutation is researched, you must activate it.
What’s very important, it’s possible for you to’t have more than one mutation active simultaneously.
One passive mutation calledStrengthened Synapsesis developed while you obtain new active mutations.
It unlocks the possibility to deal critical damage with Witcher signs.
Chance for dealing critical damage and the strength of critical hits increases as the intensity of the sign increases.
In addition to that, opponents killed by critical damage from a sign are exploding.
It is a good mutation if you like to use Witcher signs during the combat.
However, it is important to have many signs-related skills in the active slots when you use this mutagen.
Thanks to that the overall sign intensity will be higher and thus the mutation will be more effective.
- Deadly Counter- One of the “starter” mutations.
It allows dealing 25% more damage with sword to humans who are resistant to counterattacks and to monsters.
- Toxic Blood- One of the “starter” mutations.
Using this mutation can be very helpful when fighting stronger opponents who deal large number of damage.
If the enemy is frozen and knocked over on the ground, he will die instantly.
If he is not frozen, then he will receive very high additional damage.
These improvements greatly improve effectiveness and usefulness of Aard sign.
You should use this mutation during encounters in which Geralt must defeat many opponents.
- Second Life- As the name of the mutation suggests, it protects Geralt from dying.
When the protagonist loses all his health points, he becomes temporarily invulnerable and his health is fully regenerated.
The mutation can activate only once every three minutes.
Despite this limitation it is very useful.
If you play on one of higher difficulties, you should unlock it as quickly as possible.
On lower difficulties you should activate it before each harder battle (for example against a boss).
The bonus stacks for as long as Geralt won’t receive any damage from opponents.
Otherwise each hit will reduce the bonus from this mutation.
You should take interest in this mutation if you use crossbow in combat frequently.
- Metamorphosis- Due to this mutation using critical effects on opponents activates a random potion for two minutes.
It happens without affecting the current toxicity level.
Up to three potions can be active simultaneously.
In addition to that, the mutation automatically lightens up darker locations.
- Mutated Skin- This mutation lowers the damage received by 15% for each adrenaline point.
