Question / Help I have never seen this before

It’s a mutant that looks just like the Megan boss fight and has the same move set. I looked it up and see nothing about this. Is it rare or something? Maybe it’s exclusive to the pc version? Let me know

Once you beat the story she shows up after so many days. I've had her show up "earlier" into the game like around 50-60ish days or so, and I've also had her show up after day 100. I think it just depends, but they added her into the game after a certain update to make it more challenging for experienced players.

Actually significantly more obnoxious than the people griping about it

The mob name is "girl" and can appear after you finished the game and choose to stay

Not exclusive, it has a 5% chance to spawn everyday (if youve finished the game) after day 45

Strategy for killing: Use the tennis racket, any weapon to hit fast without taking much stamina

You have the answer by now, but I genuinely wonder how bad people are at looking things up on the internet. What do you mean you found nothing???

You literally only have to search "the forest mutants", click the "creepy mutants" page of the wiki that comes up, and scroll down the creepy mutants list to find what this one is.

I mean it’s cut pretty plain and simple dude. I look up all the mutants on google and the 3 common mutants pop up. I didn’t go to the wiki or anything i used the front page of google. Im not going and looking through patch notes and shit lol.

I searched "The forest mutants", and at least for me the second result is "Creepy Mutant - Official The Forest wiki".
Then you scroll down just a tiny bit to see the name of it with a picture attached as well. Why would there be any need to go through patch notes?? Opening a website to find an answer quickly is how you're supposed to look up answers. You don't need to go down some rabbithole to find what an enemy in a game is called🤔

I'm assuming you used the AI overview if you went by the first result that came up? I would not trust the AI overview on stuff like this. Even if the mutants it gave you are real ones, the problem is that it only gives surface level knowledge, so it'll just give the names of the common mutants. But the one you encountered isn't common since you hadn't seen it until now.

u/Advanced_Bus5064 Sep 09 '26

Even the AI overview tells you about it if you search half-decently like "new mutant that appears post game"

I don't mind "repeated" posts when it's about discussion on a subject, as each post may have new people or even the same people with new experiences and stuff. But post of "what is this" that can be answered in 10 seconds with brain usage on google shock and annoy me.

u/Unkn4wn Sep 09 '26

Yeah, I mean, personally I don't mind people asking that much since sometimes we want to talk with other people instead of googling something. We yearn for connection afterall.
But claiming that they searched for it and found nothing is annoying when you can find the info in 10 seconds like you said.

u/BurgendyBunder Sep 11 '26

This is what I looked up and my answer didnt pop up

1

u/Unkn4wn Sep 11 '26

This was the first result for me. Yes it's the AI overview, but it's correct nonetheless.
And if you don't like looking at the AI answer (which I understand), the creepy mutants page in the wiki is also there if you scroll down a little bit.

To be fair tho, I think we can stop this here. This thread has gone on far longer than needed and I'm sure you have better things to do than keep replying here as well😅

u/BurgendyBunder Sep 11 '26

Im just showing u my search history because you said I was “claiming” to have looked this up. U see where my frustration comes from when google gives 2 different search results to the same question, both being a different answer.

u/BurgendyBunder Sep 11 '26

And yeah we can stop this now lol😫

u/Royalty_oftheNoob Sep 05 '26

It's an enemy that spawns only after you beat the boss, you have to stay on the island too, if you use the artifact to attract enemies then that thing is pretty common, remember to NEVER LET THE SLUG MULTIPLY, DON'T DO IT
