Fungal Sample

The Fungal Sample is a raw material that can be obtained from the Tree Mushroom in Mushroom Forests. The PDA description states that the sample contains fungal enzymes.

Description
The player can break off the "Mushroom Cap" of Tree Mushrooms to obtain Fungal Samples,by hitting them with the Knife or by direct collision with the Seamoth or Cyclops, causing them to break and slowly drift to the ground. One "Mushroom Cap" yields about 2 to 14 Fungal Samples, depending on the size.

Fungal Samples are a rare drop from Table Coral. The player will need to use a knife in order to harvest these. As the drop rate is quite low, table coral are an inefficient source of Fungal Samples, if one is looking for them specifically.

Gel Sacks, when broken, drop a small amount of Fungal Samples, along with Coral Samples. This is the only method to obtain Fungal Samples through farming.

Fungal Samples are not scannable.
