Okay so right now, you have to kill a 52k HP boss for some light which is already pretty easy to get and I know this disappoints some people.
So here is my idea for another use for the Shrrom Skin.
Imagine if you could craft the Shroom Skin into a special turf like the Scaled Flooring.
1 skin = 6 turfs
And the special properties of this turf would be this:
You can plant the different coloured mushroom spores on this turf, just like you can plant butterflies to make flowers, and they will grow into their respective colour mushtrees!
What do you guys think? I think it is pretty fitting for the boss and you can make some fancy places with aboveground mushtrees.
