Mutant is a legendary assault rifle in Borderlands 3 manufactured by Jakobs, exclusive to Guns, Love, and Tentacles DLC Pack. It is obtained as a rare drop from Fungal Gorger in The Cankerwood.
Special Weapon Effects
Super unnatural.
- +75% weapon damage. -90% spread. -100% weapon sway. +15 magazine size. Fixed Gatlin' trigger.
- Fires a continuous, non-elemental beam.
Usage & Description
The Mutant functions similarly to a common Jakobs assault rifle with the Gatlin' prefix. Single shots or controlled bursts should be used as the heavy recoil can quickly throw off aim.
Notes
- The beam can ricochet to one nearby enemy on a critical hit, like a normal Jakobs rifle.
- Unlike most beam/stream weapons, Mutant has normal gunfire sound and will eject shells when firing.
Trivia
- Mutant, along with the Rowan's Call, King's Call, Queen's Call and Seventh Sense appear to be a unique brand of Jakob's weaponry with distinctly alien features.
- The name and flavor text are a reference to the X-Factor: Super Unnatural series of Marvel comics.
