Blood & Wine Mutations

Mutations are divided into three groups – combat, alchemy and magic, although some are hybrids. When you go into the menu, you’ll see only three available at the beginning. You’ll need to invest skill points and mutagens to research them. They’ll become available once you finish a side quest called Turn and Face the Strange.
The mutations tree is like a web – you’ll need to unlock the lower level ones to get to the better ones. You can only have one active at a time, so you’ll have to chose the one that fits your play style best.
The mutation you begin with, Strengthened Synapses, will improve as you research other ones. As it gets stronger, you’ll unlock additional ability slots. The mutation you choose will act as a lock for skills in those slots. For example, a blue mutation will allow you to equip only magic skills in those slots, while a hybrid of red and green will let you use combat and alchemy skills there.
