Summons Sentry
Mushroom Cap

The Fungal Cane is a Hardmode sentry summon weapon dropped by Mycelium Mimics. It summons a Mushroom Cap at the player's cursor that fires a burst of 5 small spores at the closest enemy within its range. Spores inflict the Fungal Growth debuff upon contact.

Its best modifier is Ruthless. The Mythical modifier provides the widest array of stat bonuses, but these primarily affect the initial summon rather than the resulting minion. Additionally, Minions cannot deal critical hits. The only significant advantage a Mythical Fungal Cane has over a Ruthless one is knockback.
