mutations.ts describes crackling static charge from dry storm weather. weather.ts has no Dry Storm row and does not list Static under Thunderstorm (Shocked, Electric, Wet). Cite the mutations.ts dry-storm line only; do not invent humidity clocks or guaranteed pre-strike windows.
Static Mutation Grow a Garden
Static is the dry-storm charge pad at 15× weather environmental—the crackle that appears before headline lightning, and a legitimate bracket filler when Electric or Shocked later join the same harvest.
How to trigger
Stacking rules
Static is weather-category, stackable, environmental. Solo: 1 + (15 − 1) = 15. Static + Electric (33×) → sum 48, n = 2 → 47. Static + Shocked (125×) → sum 140, n = 2 → 139. Static + Shocked + Blitzshock (62×) → sum 202, n = 3 → 200. Never product-multiply the electric family. Growth exclusivity applies. Static has no CONFLICT_PAIRS entry; Wet on the same crop still conflicts with Frozen and Chilled.

Static value by weight
Static applies a 15× multiplier in the weather bracket. The table below shows the value it adds to a reference crop (base 50) across common harvest weights, so you can gauge how much this tag is worth before chasing it.
| Weight | Base crop value | With Static (15×) | Value added |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 kg | 50 | 750 | +700 |
| 2 kg | 200 | 3K | +2.8K |
| 5 kg | 1.25K | 18.8K | +17.5K |
| 10 kg | 5K | 75K | +70K |
Static value impact
Padding the strike, not replacing it
Shocked at 125× dominates storm value. Static’s job is the second (or third) env icon: each extra tag adds (multiplier − 1) after count subtraction. Holding a Static crop through a later Shocked proc is bracket strategy, not a claim that dry storms always escalate.
Electric (33×) sits between Static and Shocked in raw weight. All three may coexist when present—verify icons rather than assuming a fixed escalation ladder.
Storm moisture side rules
Thunderstorm weather lists Wet with Shocked and Electric. Static itself does not conflict with Wet. If Wet is present, Frozen and Chilled remain blocked by CONFLICT_PAIRS even while Static stays legal.
Screenshot Static with whatever storm companions actually landed. Buyers discount clear-sky Static claims that ignore the dry-storm catalog wording. A lone 15× Static pad still multiplies after growth—it is not flavor-only crackle—so list it with calculator output when the icon is verified.
Common questions
- Is Static listed on the Thunderstorm weather row?
- No. Thunderstorm lists Shocked, Electric, and Wet. Static’s documented source is the mutations.ts dry-storm description.
- Does Static conflict with Shocked?
- No. Both are environmental weather tags with no mutual conflict pair. They share the env bracket via sum-and-count math.
