Yellow Mushroom is a basic Black Forest-tier food that boosts your health by 10, stamina by 30, and health regeneration by 1hp/tick for 10 minutes. They’re also used in several advanced recipes.

Acquisition

  • Yellow Mushrooms grow in the dark inside the caves and dungeons of the Black Forest and Swamp biomes
  • Yellow Mushrooms regrow after 240 minutes of real time

While regular Mushrooms are scattered all over their biomes, Yellow Mushrooms grow in dark places like caves and dungeons, and glow brightly. This makes them very easy to spot and gather. You can find them inside Troll Caves, Burial Chambers, and Sunken Crypts. Once picked, Yellow Mushrooms take 240 minutes to respawn.

Uses

  • Raw Food
  • Ingredient in Meads

Food

Eating a Yellow Mushroom increases your health by 10, stamina by 30, and health regeneration by 1hp/tick for 10 minutes. It can be eaten raw or combined with other ingredients in more advanced recipes. To eat a Yellow Mushroom, simply right-click on it in your inventory. You can eat it together with two other food types, but you can’t eat more than one Yellow Mushroom at a time.

When you eat a Yellow Mushroom, you’ll gain its full effects. These effects will fade with time. When there’s 50% of the mushroom buff’s duration left – 5 minutes – the buff icon will begin flashing and you’ll be able to eat another one and refresh the effects.

Crafting

While their primary purpose is to be eaten raw while exploring dungeons, Yellow Mushrooms can also be used to brew several very helpful Meads. Check out the Recipes section for the full details.

Recipes

Yellow Mushrooms have limited uses outside of just eating them, but the Meads you get from brewing them remain useful throughout most of the game.

Helpful Tips

  • Since it’s easy to raid dungeons for Yellow Mushrooms when you need some, don’t be afraid to eat them when your food supplies are running low inside dungeons
  • Unlike the other loot you find inside dungeons, Yellow Mushrooms respawn after 240 minutes, or slightly over twelve in-game days
  • While regular Mushrooms can be used to tame boars, Yellow Mushrooms won’t work for that purpose
