* Unstable mutaplasmids are the most in-demand, offering both the largest possible benefits and by far the largest possible penalties

~~To create (or "Roll" as it is often said) the abyssal module, either double-click on or right-click and Use the mutaplasmid. This will open~~ a window with a slot that can accept a module. Drag and drop the chosen module into the slot, or hover over the slot to view a list of all compatible modules. (Modules in that list which are in the same hangar as the mutaplasmid are highlighted and can be selected from the list.) The right side of the window will then display a list of the possible stat changes the module can receive. At this point, pressing the Mutate button will combine the module and mutaplasmid to create a new abyssal module, and the window will display the module'~~s newly adjusted stats~~.

Drone Damage Amplifier mutaplasmids Fighter Support Unit mutaplasmids currently only have a 'Radical' version.

Each stat ~~which~~ is modified by the mutaplasmid is modified independently, from a flat random distribution across the possible range. This means that, while Unstable mutaplasmids have the highest possible bonuses, they also have the highest chances of getting penalties; and that Gravid mutaplasmids have the best odds of creating some degree of positive effect on a module.

Mutating a module can only be done once, and cannot be undone. Once mutated, the new module is a unique Abyssal module, and cannot be repackaged or sold on the market (although it can be Reprocessed into the minerals of a T1 variant). Abyssal modules can, however, be traded via [[Contracts]], and the Contract window specifically allows for viewing the stats of mutated modules by hovering the mouse over the contract. There are also out-of-game websites and servers, such as [https://mutaplasmid.space/ mutaplasmid.space], which allow for better searching and comparing available contracts for abyssal modules. This all also means that Abyssal modules have no inherent ISK value, and so for any killmails which include Abyssal modules there is no good way of knowing how strong, weak, cheap, or valuable those modules were.
