Mutation Invasion is a new rotational event.
Appalachia has changed in many ways in the last four years. Some of the changes may be due to daily long-term radiation exposure to the local residents (also known as "A Normal Day in the Wasteland."

- Until March 21st, a Mutated Public Event will take place every hour at the top of the hour.**
- These events are marked with a special icon to indicate they are Mutated.
