how the hell do i go back to playing physical mutants and true kin after playing an esper and blowing people up with my mind, putting up force walls, and teleporting around like a crazy man?
This is not a rhetorical question.

True Kin - Child of the Wheel - Optical Technoscanner (for utility purpose)
Pump STR till Berserk

With berserk -> flurry you can chop off 2 limbs / attack plus you can cut off enemies faces and wear them as masks, which is always funny ^^

And then die to a madpole. Or a goatfolk sower. Or a saw robot.
It's the lack of options that's upsetting me. As an esper, right off the bat I shoot lasers, have force wall, and ego projection as last resort. With a melee true kin maybe you'll get some nice upgrades eventually, threads and whatnot, but even then: you just dismember dudes. Maybe throw some grenades around, maybe find a nice electrobow. But you're so strapped for points dumping everything into strength, axes and dual wielding, it's really hard to shell out for tinkering and some long ranged options. With an esper I could just throw skills around on a whim, learned the entire cooking tree. And at least with a mutant marauder I can have freezing hands.

And then die to a madpole. Or a goatfolk sower. Or a saw robot.

You never engage a madpole in melee (except you WANT to lose a limb)!
With a simple carbine rifle that's no problem.
If a Goatfolk Sower kills you, you maybe need better armor or are too weak for the jungle.

I'm curently level 23 with this build (Bethesda Susa) and had no problems with madpoles or saw robots.

It's the lack of options that's upsetting me.

There is no lack of options, only a lack of creativity ;-)

 

[Major Seven]

Forgot to mention.

But you're so strapped for points dumping everything into strength, axes and dual wielding, it's really hard to shell out for tinkering and some long ranged options.

It really isn't that hard, give it a try!
Starting with 17 INT I play with long range weapons, cooking, wayfaring and basic tinker.

I also like esper builds a lot and just wanna show a funny alternative

What's your most powerful builds?
I've been trying to make my two-headed human maradaur build work for a long while. Theoretically it's the most op shit ever.
You basically put 16 in strength, the rest attributes are 18. On levelups you only raise your will power.
Starting mutations are two-headed, beguiling, clairvoiance, ego projection, mental mirror, precognition, telepathy, hemophilia.
As you level up you should get dominance, teleportation, sunder mind and temporal fugue.

With 2 heads you can have up to 4 face slots for +12 ego, which will help you max your mental mutations without putting more than 1 point into them. Chopping faces is easy with ego-projection to strength.
With high willpower you will be able to spam the shit out of your temporal fugue and clairvoyance, giving an army of teleporting clones.
Beguiling helps wtih early game, and later you can dominate your partymember to give him stats and mutations.
So you end up with constant clairvoyance, constant army of clones who sunder mind all enemies on the map before teleporting in a dismembering the survivors. Thats really fun and powerful.

Other than that I've been trying human praetorian with focus on evasion which works pretty well too.

MyPlayerMutator : IPlayerMutator
{
public void mutate(GameObject player)
{

    It has the following parameters.
  • Cell: the current cell
  • Path: the list of Points in the current missile path
  • p: the int value of the current index in the missile path
