	Mutons have high stats and armor and are resistant to [[Weapons#Armour-Piercing\|AP ammunition]], making them quite hard to defeat with an inexperienced force. Fortunately they have a relatively low Intelligence score, and will "forget" the whereabouts of your soldiers after only 4 turns. They are also highly susceptible to [[psionic]] attacks.

	Despite their greater survivability, Muton reactions give them only a medium level of aggression; less than Sectoids and Ethereals, but more than Floaters. They become comic relief for a player with lots of psionics, but should be approached cautiously otherwise. Heavy plasma is the preferred weapon class for use against them; while laser rifles will work, more rounds per kill will be required, which allows them time to return fire.

	This humanoid creature is physically powerful and intelligent. They have a particular appetite for consuming raw flesh of any kind, which they need for sustenance like earth based carnivores. They appear to rely on telepathic commands from a race known as '[[Ethereal]]s'. Once separated from this telepathic link their mental system appears to break down and they die. The cybernetic implants are used to enhance their combat performance. They are clearly the foot soldiers for a higher intelligence.		This humanoid creature is physically powerful and intelligent.
