Cave-mutants at night

[Hadouken]

Are the cave mutants (the "normal" blind ones) always active in the forest at night or does this only happen when you go into a cave during the day and come out again at night? We have only been able to observe this twice, and both times when leaving a cave at night. would be a good way to get armour quickly!!!


(Bone armour is rather a bad joke in terms of effort and use of marterials.)


i don't want to start a discussion about the armour, i'm only interested in the mutants that are also running around in the forest.
Thanks for sharing your experience

The various enemy that spawn outside of caves depends on:

The Number of In-Game days survived
The number of Caves entered

First couple of days, the toughest thing you'll run into outside of a cave will be a group of painted cannibals.

A few days later, you'll get to meet the really big Cannibals.

Start poking around in caves, and mutant babies will start to turn up on the surface, followed by melty-faced cave-dwellers, then Meat-Slinkies, those two-legged, unzipped scrot looking things, and if there's anything else, I haven't noticed it yet.

As far as I can tell, the bloated door-wedges never come out of the caves, probably because they've eaten too many visitors and just don't fit through the entrance any longer. They should really add some vegetarians to their diets and exercise to their daily routines.

I think after your survive for a while they start to spawn on the surface, day and night. I've been attacked by a sudden group of fingers at night and have witnessed stray mutants in the day attacking a cannibal village.

It was around day 12! so very early gamestage. this is why i am asking :)

(Still talking about the normal, blind mutants:)

Normal blind mutants are still cave mutants.

I found that they started spawning as soon as I started knocking the planks off certain caves.

theres usually at least one or two tied up in canni villages too.

Yes they appear with the rest of the mutants. You may also notice some being held captive in villages.

yes this could be a possibility! its was after we opened the cave entrance and clearing the cave :)

Im pretty certain that this is what unlocks the actual spawning of them on the map. But as was mentioned they can also be prisoners in camps before that as well.
