Notes[ | ]

  • The Fungus armor's set bonus makes it primarily useful when using Fungal Poppers or Morel Grenades, both also crafted with Cerulean Morels, as they are the only throwing weapons that can inflict Fungal Growth. Spore Coating will make all throwing weapons inflict Fungal Growth, removing the limited usefulness of the armor's set bonus.
    • The minions summoned by the Mushymen Staff also inflict Fungal Growth, allowing the player to inflict the debuff without using any consumables, albeit less consistently against larger groups of enemies.
