 So your automaton is basically your companion through playing Biomutant, but more than being your companion it can actually at the same time become a super useful tool helping you in various different ways. In battle, travel in the world and more. Today I'll show you what you have to do and where to go to level the automaton up. How's it going guys? My name's DPJ and if you enjoyed the video leaving a like really helps out and if you like what you see I want to see more Biomutant on a daily basis be sure to subscribe. So the automaton has many uses while playing this game and today I will showcase what the automaton can do and how you can unlock these amazing features. So as you can see on the screen now if I hold up my d-pad and bring up consumer balls at the top I have the automaton injector which when I'm in the heat of a battle I can use this which is great and get my health back and they can be used multiple times I mean yes there's a cooldown on them but you can use them multiple times once you unlock them they are here to stay. I also have the automaton boost at the bottom this gives me a damage buff for a short period of time also incredible and really helpful. I also have a turret which comes alive during battle and I also have a glider which when I jump and hold that jump button from a great height I pull out this glider and it's super useful for traveling it really is. All of these things are great for that early game content and come in super handy later on also. Now to unlock the automaton perks it's quite simple around the map you will see a mirage of what looks like a giant panda bear this starts a side quest after you level the automaton up now as far as I'm aware these can appear randomly all over the map but just in case they ain't you will see the location where I found them and when they appeared for me on the map. Now when you interact with a mirage you go into a kind of flashback combat instance here I will state you don't actually have to win these combat instances and at the end of them you'll still get to pick the automaton ability there are four for starters you can use so that means you have to find four mirages again guys all four I will showcase on the map where they appeared for me but for all I know they could be random so that's what you'll see unscrewed now it's quite straightforward and I will add once you find all four mirages you are good to crack on I will state that I have all four and I still see the mirages I just can't seem to catch the mirage before he disappears so there might even be more levels to these people later on in the story but for now the four automaton benefits will help you out within the early stages 100% remember you don't have to be any of these dudes within these flashbacks so don't stress if you get battered I got absolutely obliterated in the last two you can also by the way level up the lock of your automaton and some of what I've seen are absolutely incredible I do have another video underway for this so as I just have to confirm on an old character that it's not random and these instances are for everybody so expect that video soon guys but yes people this side you upgrade your automaton and get four incredible beneficial abilities for it which will help you out 100% on that note the end of the video has arrived if you enjoyed it leaving a like really helps out if you're new around here and want to see more by your mutant be sure to subscribe and if you never want to miss a video I upload counting notifications on by hitting that bell button guys thanks as always for stopping by and hopefully I will see you on that next one
