Co-Op Mutation #438: Flipping Out

Chaos reigns over the ritual of Rak’Shir. Enemies are not where they first appear to be, and your forces find themselves overcome this fear. Even your own perspective is warped and twisted. Maintain focus long enough for Ji’nara to win the challenge.

Vertigo - Your camera randomly changes positions.
Evasive Maneuvers - Enemy units teleport a short distance away upon taking damage.
Fear - Player units will occasionally stop attacking and run around in fear upon taking damage.

Notes:

  • Vertigo [TILTS and ROTATES your camera position] every 20 Blizzard seconds on Brutal in awkward ways. However, it does not change the location. This may be extremely disorienting for building placements.
  • Using the minimap for attack and move commands will ensure your units are going in the right direction.
  • Units inflicted with Fear cannot be controlled in any way for ten Blizzard seconds.
  • Damage from AOE spells, and Mutalisk bouncing glaves also have a chance to put Fear on your units.
  • Evasive maneuvers will be most annoying when using melee units against enemy ranged units.

i was still tripping when i switched back to wow

Evasive Maneuvers and Fear are easy mods, and Vertigo technically doesn’t give you any combat disadvantage. So why is this mutator so hard? >=)

Its a mutation that not hard to play, but rather its hard to play the mutation.

Yeah I get headaches and nausea after vertigo so I’ve skipped it ever since. But good on you and your good genetics if you don’t get those.

Different sensitivities to this sort of thing is all. For example, certain flashing lights and patterns can cause seizures for certain people. Others are more prone to motion sickness (e.g. riding backwards on a train, or just a few light waves on a boat). The view rotating in all manners of angles is yet another on of them.

I posted in the Vertigo thread that I still much prefer this to Going Nuclear. I lost too many units to that, and having to constantly babysit your units is a chore :frowning:

I actually really liked this mutation for something really different than normal mutations & i didn’t feel sick at all :smiley:
