Notes[]

  • This mutation triggers if the enemies are killed by attacks from ranged weapons, parried shots (using Shields), and bombs/arrows from weapons' affixes (including Melee Weapons). Does not trigger with melee attacks and skills.
    • Due to how the game qualifies what counts as a ranged kill, killing an enemy using a melee attack followed by a ranged weapon will not activate this mutation. However, it will activate the mutations Predator Mutation IconPredator and Killer Instinct Mutation IconKiller Instinct.
