All Mushrooms in Ark Aberration Ascended, and what they do

New mushrooms in ARK Aberration Ascended have been introduced that have special effects when consumed. These new mushrooms that you can find on the Aberration map include Aggeravic Mushroom, Aquatic Mushroom, Ascerbic Mushroom, and Auric Mushroom. They can be found all over the map; however, the Green Zone is considered one of the best locations on the map for gathering mushroom resources in ARK Aberration Ascended.

Mushrooms can be collected by gathering brown and red mushrooms on the ground by hand. The consumables can also be gathered by interacting with the blue glowing bulbs you find in different zones of the map. This article details all the effects and uses of each of these mushrooms in ARK Aberration Ascended.
