Can't unlock Lil Fist mutation.

[Spartles]

As title says, I can't unlock the Lil Fist mutation.
I'm well aware it doesn't unlock on Weevils and Aphids.
I have killed over a hundred Lawn Mites unarmed, still no mutation.

Maybe you got big Michael Pereira fists.

I had issue where neither lil fist nor smasher would unlock for me.

The next time I logged in the first kills I had with the hammer and fists unlocked the mutation. I could have just needed one more of each but i'm pretty sure I had killed well over 40 angry bugs the previous day.

I have over 144 hours in the game now, if it was going to give it to me based on reloading a save, it should have done that already.

Oof, that stinks. Here is to hoping it gets fixed.

What worked to me was to remove anything that would deal external dmg (and thus stealing the killing blow) such as poison, the acid damage from the Fire ant set and most importantly, Tuffle Trussle.

(Interestingly, Tuffle Trussle counts towards Whittle Wizard which is for staves)

Went back into the red ant hill and I could finally max out the mutation within a large number of kills.

Hope this helps; gl hf!

I'm wearing Roly Poly armor (full set) and use Cardio Fan, Natural Explorer, Mithradatism, Buff Lungs and Meat Shield.
There is no extra damage from any of these, so no reason for me not to get the mutation unless it is simply bugged.
Also, Truffle Tussle is supposed to work towards getting Lil Fist.

I just put on lots of heavy armor and punched a red solder ant to death

Harmless insects don't count. I leveled up with mites. Though it did seem to take about 100 kills, longer than usual.

Keep going with what? Killing mites? I'm already up to 140+ killed bare-handed.
Still nothing.

At some point I remember removing my shield just to be sure but I got the level 2 and 3 while wearing it so I doubt it's an issue. I was using a similar combination of mutation (meaning nothing that adds damage buff or damages - also no trinket). Seems like a glitch, in which case there'd be no real solution to offer.

I unlocked it today. What are the mutations and weapons you're using?
