Snakeskin is a soak mutation which gives resistance against slash and stab damage. Prequisite for Eelskin. This mutation is not popular, and is generally regarded as having low utility.

Location

Snakeskin is at the very northern end of the Mall in Gangland which is home to a variety of hostile zombies, this can be dangerous to low-level and unprepared players. The mutation is on the Men's Department tile, to the west the clothing store.

Effects

Slashing: +2 - +4 
Stabbing: +1 - +3 

Advantages

  • 2-4 slashing, 1-3 stabbing soaks - These two damage types are very common in PvE and PvP.
  • Useful to Zombies - Due to Zombie's low soak to slash and stab, this can compliment some niche builds.

Disadvantages

  • Slash / Stab Soaks - This is a double-edged sword, Slash and Stab soaks are commonly found on a lot of armor pieces, so this may not be as good as it sounds on paper, especially considering no mutations really suffer with penalties to either.
