Where to get Mushroom in Palworld
5 Pals drop Mushroom, and they are not equal — Lovander gives 2–4 at 100%, which is the best return per kill in the game. Every rate below is the game's own figure.
Each Pal here gives more Mushroom per kill than every Pal that spawns earlier — hunt the highest one you can reach.
Not a speed ranking: spawn density and kill time are not in the game files, so “fastest” is not something this page can prove.
Pals that drop Mushroom
| Pal | Rate | Amount | Avg per kill | Where |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lovander | 100% | 2–4 | 3 | |
 Mycora | 100% | 2–3 | 2.5 | |
 Shroomer | 100% | 1–2 | 1.5 | |
 Tanzee | 100% | 1 | 1 | |
 Tanzee Ignis | 100% | 1 | 1 |
Rate and amount are stated by the game. “Avg per kill” is ours — the rate multiplied by the mean of the amount range — so you can compare a rare big drop against a reliable small one without doing it in your head.
Buying it
A merchant sells Mushroom outright, from 300 gold. If you are short on time rather than gold, this beats farming — merchant locations are listed separately.
Chests, expeditions, nodes and other sources
The game stores these as weights rather than percentages — an item’s chance is its weight against everything else in the same grade. The odds below are that division done, so you can compare a route against hunting.

| Spawned by Shroomer | 66.7%10 rank tiers | 1–10 | |
| Free Pal Alliance Illicit Trading Post expedition | 11.1% | 10–20 | |
| Verdant Hollow expedition | 9.1% | 3–10 | |
| Secret Realm of the Forest expedition | 7.7% | 3–10 |
