Nerf early mutation gain

After concerns from James Meickle and watching a few characters on CDO, I've instated two small nerfs:

It is not possible to have a long run of mutations in the early game; you are capped at 3 mutations per 4 levels.
Tier 1 mutations do not start to appear until level 12; tier 2 mutations do not start until level 6.
