If you’re smart about it, you can turn them into something better than HP recovery. Yes, it’s possible to aim higher than that. If you’re particularly enterprising, you can turn these Parasol Mushrooms into a Special Horse Reviver. Ever been worried about riding your horse too hard? Know that you’re prone to treating every mount like your trusty Skyrim steed without worrying about the consequences? You’re going to want some of this Horse Reviver.

Now, to find these Parasol Mushrooms, you’re going to want to make a beeline for Flatneck Station. They thrive in well-drained soil environments, and honestly look a bit like your store-bought flat-top mushrooms that look great on a grill.

If you’re not quite sure where to start around the Station, we’d recommend getting down on your knees and having a dig around the train tracks. There should be plenty of them just kicking around, so pick to your heart’s content.
