Biomutant features several different types of puzzles, one of which revolves around connecting cables so that they generate a designated value. Without question, these are among the trickiest puzzles in the game, and some players may find themselves stuck as they try solve them. Helping these fans is this precise purpose of this guide, and details on how to approach cable puzzles in Biomutant, as well as some specific solutions, can be found in what follows.
To start, players that are working on a cable puzzle should direct their attention to the grey string of characters at the bottom. This string is the value that action game fans need to generate in order to complete the puzzle, and getting a count of each character is a reasonable way to begin. In one of the game's cable puzzles that count will be six X's, while it will be two X's, two Y's, and two Z's in another, and players should use that information when thinking about which terminals to connect cables to.
With respect to those terminals, many of them have a positive value (designated by some number of white characters), a negative value (designated by some number of yellow characters), or both. The goal then becomes to find a combination of six terminals that generate the target string when the total number of negative values are subtracted from the total number of positive values. Once these six terminals have been identified, Biomutant players should connect the cables to them, and the solution will appear just above the grey string.
While this may initially sound quite confusing, diving into a couple of possible solutions should clarify things a bit. To begin with the aforementioned six X example, that cable puzzle can be solved by using terminals with a total positive value of 10 X and a total negative value of four X. Here are details on specific terminals that open-world RPG fans can use, and the image that is above also depicts this solution: Terminal 1: +XX | Terminal 2: +XX | Terminal 3: +X | Terminal 4: +X | Terminal 5: +XXX, -XX | Terminal 6: +X, -XX.
When it comes to the XXYYZZ cable puzzle in Biomutant, that can be solved using terminals with total positive values of four X, four Y, and four Z, and total negative values of two X, two Y, and two Z. Again, an image of that solution can be found above, and here are the precise terminals that the cables should be plugged into: Terminal 1: +XX, -Y | Terminal 2: +ZZ, -X | Terminal 3: +XX, -Z | Terminal 4: +YY, -X | Terminal 5: +YY, -Z | Terminal 6: +ZZ, -Y.
Biomutant is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
