===== Section 155: Mushrooms =====
Mushrooms of the Arc is a Farming activity in the Arc region. There are 16 mushroom types that are foraged from mushroom clusters found on Goshima, The Islands That Once Were Turtles, and the Uncharted Isles.
Level 90 Farming is required to forage from clusters found on named islands. 94 Farming required to forage from clusters found on the Uncharted Isles. Mushrooms from clusters can be sliced with Level 90 Farming and 86 Cooking, producing sliced mushrooms (ingredient for shark soup).
On Goshima and The Islands That Once Were Turtles, a status bar will be displayed above clusters being harvested, representing current depletion levels. It takes ~1 minute for a mushroom cluster to replenish its resources after being depleted.
On the Uncharted Isles, mushroom clusters are depleted after 100 mushrooms. Once depleted, the cluster cannot be foraged until daily reset at 00:00 UTC.
Randomly while foraging, you may be pricked by a thorn, disrupting foraging, and dealing damage equal to 5% of maximum life points. If pricked:
Ouch! You were pricked by a thorn.
