    Mystics

    I'm not very familiar with mystics/phantoms. But I love some of the morphs that can be created from them.
    I think they look very similar to mohaves, which are alot cheaper.
    I'm considering buying this pair. Opinions would be appreciated as I've never seen a mystic before.
    Thanks

    Some look similar especially when young, this is a mystic and a mojave together.



    However there are some differences, Mojave have a slight green hue to them which you will not see with mystic.

    Obviously while they can appear similar to the untrained eye they are not and obviously their combos are also very different.

    If you like Mystics and there combos then you should go for it

    Are mystics and phantoms the same. I'm finding conflicting information.
    Some of these morphs are confusing.

    The above snakes look like mystics to me.

    I have heard that the trick to telling these morphs apart is in the belly, mojos have a very nice clean white belly while mystics have marks on their belly.

    It sure seems to me that the mystics and phantoms are the same morph, but I'm no expert.

    They both produce combos that look the same to me. And for people to point out tiny subtle differences between a combo from a phantom vs. the same combo from a mystic, I half way roll my eyes, and half way agree.

    The reason for the eye roll is that there is such a difference in normals. From a busy-patterned dark normal, to a reduced-patterned light normal. Both are referred to as normals. Both may produce subtle differences in babies, but both are normals--the same way I tend to view mystics/phantoms/specials (and butters/lessers, black pastels/cinnamons, pastels/jungle pastels/lemon pastels, etc...)

    Before anyone tears into me, please just realize that I'm just stating my opinion. I am in no way representing this as fact. It just seems that way to me that if light normals vs. a dark normals are still labeled as normals, then the same would be true for morphs that produce nearly identical combos...

    BTW, the mystics pictured by the OP look pretty. If you like mystic combos, go for it! I just got one and can't wait to make my own combos!
    Lots of BPs, and still not enough!

    Is mystic x lesser a karma? I know phantom x lesser is.
