The Mutant Chomper is a foe and a summon in Epic Battle Fantasy 5. They tend to be found in The Rapture. It is a member of the Chompers enemy group.
Appearance
The Mutant Chomper is a hideous caricature of a Chomper that may well be from another planet. It has a red fleshy body, with brown tendrils coming out its back. It has a single red eye, and a mouth that has the center of it missing. Its mouth is filled with pinkish square teeth and a long, blue tongue.
Overview
The Mutant Chomper is a foul entity that plagues the party with many status conditions.
The Mutant Chomper is a master of attrition; not only does it possess the ability to inflict Poison, Virus and Burn, it can debuff both defenses and Evade. On harder difficulties, if the player attempts to sidestep this through giving each player Bio resistance, it will substitute some of its attacks for Gravity Surge, giving it a more diverse offense. To top it off, the Mutant Chomper can also heal itself with its signature Chomp.
Between its various status effects, healing ability and notable offensive power, the Mutant Chomper is a strong foe that should be taken out quickly. If coupled with stronger foes, it can make the party much more vulnerable, while alone it still is a mid-level threat.
Mutant Chompers absorb Bio, and resist Thunder, Ice, Water and Dark. However, they are weak to Fire, Holy and especially Earth. Cataclysm and Lumber are the most effective options against it, but Judgement, Divine Divide and Bullet Hell do quite nicely.
