Chilled analysis
Chilled adds only 1 to the bracket by itself. Like Wet, its value is as Frozen fusion material. Getting both onto the same crop is the actual goal.
Overall ranking
#41 of 45Chilled is the 41st-strongest mutation in the game and 11th of 14 in the Weather category. That is 15.0× below the median mutation multiplier of ×30.
Bracket contribution
+1Because the bracket is 1 + Σ(multipliers) − N, each mutation really adds its multiplier minus one. Chilled therefore contributes +1 to the bracket, not ×2 on top of everything else — a common misreading when pricing trades.
Marginal gain when stacked
+0.5%Added to a Shocked + Celestial stack (a ×219 bracket), Chilled raises it to ×220 — a 0.5% increase. On its own Chilled is marginal — ×2 adds just 0.5% to a stack. Its real worth is as fusion material for Frozen.
How to obtain
WeatherSource: Snow / frost event. Snow / frost event occurs often, so Chilled accumulates without effort — treat it as background value rather than a target.
Used as fusion material
1 comboChilled is a component of Frozen (×10). Check the fusion maths before combining — the bracket formula subtracts one per mutation, so merging is not automatically an upgrade.
Where Chilled sits in the ranking
The next mutation up is Pollinated (×3), worth 1 more to the bracket. Immediately below it is Wet (×2). If Chilled is out of reach, that is the closest practical substitute.

Chilled FAQ
How much does the Chilled mutation multiply crop value?
Chilled carries a ×2 multiplier, but inside the bracket formula 1 + Σ(multipliers) − N it actually contributes +1. On its own it gives a ×2 bracket; added to a Shocked + Celestial stack it takes you from ×219 to ×220.
How do you get the Chilled mutation?
Chilled comes from: Snow / frost event. It is a Weather mutation, ranked #41 of 45 overall and 11th within its category.
Is Chilled worth farming?
Chilled sits at #41 of 45 with a ×2 multiplier, contributing +1 to the bracket. Rather than judging it alone, note that it feeds Frozen (×10) — so holding it can be worth more than the multiplier suggests.
Can Chilled stack with other mutations?
Yes. Chilled stacks additively with other environmental mutations using 1 + Σ(multipliers) − N, but only one growth tier (Silver, Gold or Rainbow) can apply at a time. Note that Chilled can also be fused into Frozen.
