Plant Mutant

The Plant Mutant is an enemy encountered in System Shock. It only appears in the Groves.

Overview
"Specimen #25 - The mutagen exhibits remarkable effects on plant life. Spontaneous development of mobility and defensive structures was observed in the mutagen treatment of a poinsettia. The specimen grew to twice its original size, and continues to expand beyond its container. At last observation, the plant mutant had produced poisonous barbs and a rudimentary neural structure."

- Hans Bichenbach, Head of the Citadel Station Biology Department

Strategy
Like with the other Mutants, Flechettes and Dart Pistols tend to work well. Plant Mutants have both a melee attack as well as a projectile. It is possible (and recommended) to destroy these projectiles in mid-air.
