Sporguses are a unique monster found in mushroom patch mini biomes and Mushrooms underground biome.

They fire pollen into the air that floats down, dealing damage on contact. Each pollen piece deals 4 base damage.

This monster has a weakness (+50% damage taken) to Fire damage and a resistance (-50% damage taken) to Poison damage. Additionally, it cannot be inflicted with Poisoned.

Rare Form

A rare elemental variant of this monster can be found on bounty missions, and has a very small chance to appear in the wild. It has an identical drop pool, base stats, and spawn area, but applies the poisoned status effect when touched. This variant releases all spores at once in a dome, which explode into drops of poison.

This form can also be captured, and when caught will complete an entry in the Rare Pets collection.

Trivia

  • The name Sporgus may be a portmanteau of "spore" and “fungus”.
