You perform a mutation by right clicking the mutaplasmid and activating it. This produces a window where you can drop a drone of the appropriate type at which point it will show you the possible range for every stat after it is mutated. Once you commit to the mutation it will go through an animated sequence of rolling each stat change one by one. The mutaplasmid and the input drone are consumed by the process. The mutated drone gets a new icon, and its altered info window Attributes will show red or green with a tooltip to show you where in the probability range it rolled, and a new large tooltip will appear any time you mouse over any mutated drone icon that shows its complete information including the original drone type, and red/green bars that clearly indicate how good or bad the mutation changes are. This is also visible when looking at the items in Contracts etc. | You perform a mutation by right clicking the mutaplasmid and activating it.

Creating a mutated drone does not require any skills (thus making "drone gambling" a potentially viable Alpha activity) but using one will require Omega clone | Creating a mutated drone does not require any skills (thus making "drone gambling" a potentially viable Alpha activity) but using one will require Omega clone status and {{sk|Mutated Drone Specialization|icon=yes}}, which in turn requires all four of the main faction Drone Specialization skills at I, and Drones V. Total cost for all those skill books is roughly 100M ISK. The Mutated Drone Specialization provides a 2% damage boost per level for all mutated drones. | ||
You can't use a mutaplasmid on an already Mutated drone, so if you don't like the new stats you get you'll need another drone and another mutaplasmid to try again. | You can't use a mutaplasmid on an already Mutated drone, so if you don't like the new stats you get you'll need another drone and another mutaplasmid to try again. | ||
