WEATHER & MUTATIONS
Ride A Pet mutations and weather traits
Weather traits and hatched mutations multiply a pet’s speed and income. Here is every one our sources list, with the values they agree on and the ones they do not.
Quick answer
There are two kinds. Weather traits (Shocked, Volted, Rage, Void, Magma, Eternal) come from storms that strike pets on your ranch or the pet you ride. Hatched mutations (Gold, Diamond, Haunted, Rainbow) can roll when an egg hatches. A pet can hold one of each. Eternal is the top weather trait, but sources disagree on its multiplier (12.5x or 100x cash).
Weather traits
Cross-checked two or more sources agree · Single source only one source lists it · Sources differ sources give different values
| Trait | Reported multiplier | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shocked | 2x speed and cash | Cross-checked | |
| Volted | 3x speed and cash | Cross-checked | |
| Rage | 4x speed and cash | Cross-checked | |
| Void | 7x speed and cash, or 10x cash only | Sources differ | Fandom 7x; AllThings.How 10x cash, no speed |
| Magma | 10x speed and cash | Single source | Fandom: dip an egg in the volcano, 15% success, once per egg |
| Eternal | 12.5x speed and cash, or 100x cash | Sources differ | Fandom 12.5x; AllThings.How 100x cash |
- Each trait comes from its matching storm. AllThings.How reports that weather events last five minutes.
- Pets on your ranch, or the pet you ride, can be struck. Pets kept in your inventory are not mutated.
- A stronger trait replaces a weaker one; a weaker trait cannot downgrade a stronger one. Both sources agree on this rule.
Hatched mutations
| Mutation | Chance on hatch | Speed and cash multiplier |
|---|---|---|
| Gold | 10% | 2x |
| Diamond | 1% | 7x |
| Haunted | 5% during Halloween weather | 9x |
| Rainbow | 0.5% | 15x |
Single source AllThings.How also names Gold, Diamond and Rainbow as hatch mutations, but only the Fandom wiki publishes these chances and multipliers. Haunted is tied to Halloween weather, which the wiki says starts every hour and lasts 10 minutes.
Admin weather
These events are reported to run only when the developers trigger them, for example during Admin Abuse events.
| Weather | Effect |
|---|---|
| Gigantuar | Unclaimed eggs around the map become much larger. |
| Mutation Madness | Doubles the Gold, Diamond and Rainbow hatch-mutation odds. |
| Lucky | Increases hatch luck on eggs hatched while it is active. |
Getting the most from a storm
- Keep your best pets on the ranch or ride them when a strong storm starts.
- Have high-luck eggs placed before the weather changes, since eggs can take the active mutation too.
- Keep a spare copy of your best pet as a mutation target instead of selling it.
