Mixed Blessing

Mixed Blessing (or Uncertain Blessing) was an augment introduced with the first iteration of the Prototype Augment system.

Mixed Blessing, by itself, had no passive effects. It existed for the purpose of consolidating a random Prototype upside and downside (which were internally considered separate Augments) into a single pickup. Upon picking it up, the player would gain three items: Mixed Blessing itself, the Prototype blessing, and the Prototype curse.

Up until Early Access (???), the player would also be subject to a "balancer"- a random reward or penalty of Nuts,, , or stats, based on how good the blessing was compared to the curse. The aug was originally designed to remove negative Balances and amplify positive ones. However, after the removal of Balances altogether, Protobalancer was changed to grant 15 nuts upon picking up a Prototype.

After fully random Prototypes were replaced with a more curated selection of Singleton Prototypes with variations on the same concepts, Mixed Blessing served no functional purpose anymore and thus was scrapped.
