just noticed while looking through my Blood Hunter Mutagens that some of them are calculating the side effect incorrectly.
The Mobility mutagen is as follows
Side effect: You gain a penalty to initiative equal to 2 times your mutation score.
Mutagen Score is calculated as classlevel / 4 rounded up. At level 5, that would put me at 5/4=1.25, rounded up to 2. However, my mobility mutagen is calculating as classlevel / 2 rounded up. Assumably, this is somehow a shortcut to doing 2 times the mutagen score? But either way, it's incorrect. 5/2=2.5, rounded up to 3. The correct bonus should be a -4 to initiative.
On top of this, the mutagen called Wariness is calculating incorrectly as well! Here's the main effect of Wariness...
You gain a bonus to initiative equal to 2 times your mutation score.
So, two times my mutation score at 5th level would be calculated as 5/4=1.25, rounded up to 2, then 2*2=4. Currently, the calculation is only doing the same thing as calculating the base mutagen score and not doubling it at all. It's using classlevel / 4 rounded up. The bonus to initiative that it gives should, at the very least, match the incorrect Mobility Side effect, but instead it's a worse buff than the negatives of it's direct counterpart.
Hopefully these calculations can be adjusted. I'm not sure about any of the other mutagen calculations, but I'd suggest looking into those as well.
