Item Overview
In Baldur's Gate 3, "Lump of Myconid Flesh" is not a specifically named unique item. It most likely refers to the generic alchemy ingredient classified as "Flesh" that can be obtained from Myconid creatures.
This biological material is primarily used within the game's alchemy system for crafting components.
Acquisition
The "Flesh" ingredient from Myconids is typically acquired by:
- Defeating Myconid creatures. These fungal beings are primarily encountered in the Underdark.
- Looting their remains. The item will generally be listed as "Flesh" in the inventory.
Primary Uses in Alchemy
The principal application for "Flesh" obtained from Myconids is in Alchemy. It serves as a fundamental component for creating basic alchemical substances:
- Suspensions: "Flesh" is a required ingredient for crafting various Suspensions. For example, combining any type of "Flesh" with any type of "Salt" (e.g., Salt, Vitriol of Salt) at an alchemy interface will produce a Suspension.
- These Suspensions are then utilized as intermediate ingredients for crafting a wide array of potions, elixirs, and weapon coatings.
While the descriptive origin is "Myconid," the game's alchemy system often treats "Flesh" from different creature sources interchangeably when the recipe calls for the general "Flesh" category. Myconids may also drop other valuable items, such as unique spores (e.g., Timmask Spores, Haste Spores), which have distinct properties and uses separate from the generic "Flesh" ingredient.
