Corrosive Breath is a mutation which fires corrosive gas into a large cone-shaped area. This mutation is the signature ability of 
tartbeards. The corrosive gas has a gas density of 80.[1]
This mutation can also be acquired temporarily by cooking with 
acid, 
tartbeard gland paste, or 
concentrated tartbeard gland paste.
Passively, a creature with this mutation gains +100 acid resist, making them fully immune to acid damage. However, their gear can still be affected.
When cooking with tartbeard glands, one can expect the following guaranteed results:
| Ingredients cooked with | Effect | Cone Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| tartbeard gland paste
|
Level 5 Corrosive Breath | 30° cone, 9 tiles long |
| concentrated tartbeard gland paste
|
Level 10 Corrosive Breath | 40° cone, 14 tiles long |
| tartbeard gland paste + concentrated tartbeard gland paste
|
Level 15 Corrosive Breath | 50° cone, 19 tiles long |
The following formulas are used to determine breath cone characteristics based on mutation level.[2][3]
| Formula | |
|---|---|
| Breath Cone Length | 4 + Level
|
| Breath Cone Angle | Level × 2 + 20°
