The Mushroomancer is a unique equipment skill available early in Monster Hunter Wilds. After defeating Congalala in Chapter 1: Forest Findings, players unlock the Conga armor set, which grants access to the Mushroomancer skill and its various effects.
However, much like other skills in the game, the specifics of what Mushroomancer does are not immediately clear. Players are informed they can “digest mushrooms”for beneficial effects but are left in the dark about the outcomes of eating specific mushrooms. Below, we unveil the details of the Mushroomancer skill.
The Functionality of Mushroomancer in Monster Hunter Wilds
The Mushroomancer skill is described as:
Lets you digest mushrooms that would otherwise be inedible and gain their advantageous effects.
This skill has three progressive levels, each allowing you to utilize a wider variety of mushrooms:
- Level 1: Enables the digestion of Blue Mushrooms and Toadstools.
- Level 2: Allows consumption of Nitroshrooms and Parashrooms.
- Level 3: Expands capabilities to Mandragoras, Devil’s Blight, and Exciteshrooms.
Each of the seven mushrooms referenced offers distinct effects when consumed. Below is a comprehensive overview of their effects, descriptions, and locations.

The Value of Mushroomancer in Monster Hunter Wilds
The Mushroomancer skill offers a significant improvement for players who prefer not to craft potions continuously for tough battles. It transforms hunting preparations, potentially saving time and resources. Instead of gathering multiple materials for potions, players can focus on collecting just a handful of mushrooms.
At Level 3, the most effective mushrooms to prioritize include Nitroshrooms for attack boosts, Parashrooms for defense, and Mandragoras for complete healing. The Exciteshroom has random effects, making it less reliable, while the Blue Mushroom and Toadstool provide only minor healing benefits, overshadowed by more potent options. Devil’s Blight, which restores stamina, is essential for builds that face stamina issues but is less common.
It is also noteworthy that all gathering materials, including the mushrooms needed for Mushroomancer, respawn every 15 minutes in real-time, enhancing convenience.
On the downside, the Conga armor set itself is not particularly powerful in Monster Hunter Wilds, especially at the High Rank. Players can circumvent this by utilizing Mushroom Charms (Talismans) for the skill’s effects without compromising their armor quality.
