Tempestuous analysis
Tempestuous is a three-component fusion built from Windstruck, Twisted and Sandy. Because it combines three mutations into one, the bracket loses two stacking slots, so verify the maths against keeping the components separate before committing.
Overall ranking
#30 of 45Tempestuous is the 30th-strongest mutation in the game and 6th of 6 in the Combo category. That is 2.5× below the median mutation multiplier of ×30.
Bracket contribution
+11Because the bracket is 1 + Σ(multipliers) − N, each mutation really adds its multiplier minus one. Tempestuous therefore contributes +11 to the bracket, not ×12 on top of everything else — a common misreading when pricing trades.
Marginal gain when stacked
+5.0%Added to a Shocked + Celestial stack (a ×219 bracket), Tempestuous raises it to ×230 — a 5.0% increase. Tempestuous is marginal at ×12, worth only 5.0% on top of an existing stack, and it feeds no fusion. Treat it as incidental padding.
How to obtain
ComboSource: Windstruck + Twisted + Sandy. Fusions need their components on the same crop first, so check whether the parts are worth more left unfused before you combine them.
Where Tempestuous sits in the ranking
The next mutation up is Jackpot (×15), worth 3 more to the bracket. Immediately below it is Frozen (×10). If Tempestuous is out of reach, that is the closest practical substitute.

Tempestuous FAQ
How much does the Tempestuous mutation multiply crop value?
Tempestuous carries a ×12 multiplier, but inside the bracket formula 1 + Σ(multipliers) − N it actually contributes +11. On its own it gives a ×12 bracket; added to a Shocked + Celestial stack it takes you from ×219 to ×230.
How do you get the Tempestuous mutation?
Tempestuous comes from: Windstruck + Twisted + Sandy. It is a Combo mutation, ranked #30 of 45 overall and 6th within its category.
Is Tempestuous worth farming?
Tempestuous sits at #30 of 45 with a ×12 multiplier, contributing +11 to the bracket. It feeds no fusion, so its ×12 is the whole of its value. Compared with Frozen (×10) just below it, the gap is 2.
Can Tempestuous stack with other mutations?
Yes. Tempestuous 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.
