-'''Doubled-muscled''' is one mutation where the stat penalty of it increases as you level. To gain the greatest possible strength while minimizing [[Movement Speed]] loss, this mutation can be left at the cusp of moving to the next penalty tier. (Ex: Staying at level 4 or 8)
+'''Doubled-muscled''' is one of the few mutations where its downsides increase alongside its benefits at higher levels. To minimize [[Movement Speed]] loss while still gaining strength, it can be beneficial to avoid leveling it into the next penalty threshold. In practice, this means leaving the mutation at levels 4 or 8. Additionally, it can be a good decision to stop leveling at levels 3, 7, and 9, as increasing its level from there gives only a small benefit to the already very small daze chance.

+== Advantages ==
+* Additional [[Strength]] causes the player to do more damage in melee and increases carrying capacity.
+* Gaining [[Strength]] from a mutation rather than by increasing it through the Attribute Points granted at level-ups allows those points to go to other [[Attributes]].
+== Disadvantages ==
+* Having a lower [[Movement Speed]] than an enemy means that, unless the player has a way to slow the enemy down, they will eventually get caught.
+* The daze chance granted is incredibly low at all levels. For example, with a 10th level mutation and a strength modifier of +10, there is a whopping 1.2% chance that a given hit will daze.
