<A Blessed Feline> Balance/economy issue: The luminous hoarshrooms that grow on glowcrust each sell for 19,60 drams with -1 ego, weigh nothing, act as potent healing items, and can be generated at a ridiculous rate. Every 2 or 3 steps on the world map, a new one grows. On my trip from my starting village to Kyakukya and back, and then from my starting village to Grit Gate, I have generated a total of 24 luminous hoarshrooms or 470,40 drams of water just through walking around on the world map. Possible ways of fixing this would be to make the hoarshrooms impossible to remove from the outcrop without eating them, to make them decay a certain amount of time after having been removed from the outcrop, to remove their sell value completely, or to give glowcrust some other and more delibitating effect to make up for the economic benefit

NOTE: I just wanted to push this forward so triage could talk about it a little bit… In case I don’t happen to be there, I don’t think this is that “broken” considering the other econ breaks possible early game, but this one is pretty sweet if you manage to get an early glowcrust you can just prune yourself while wandering the map for free weightless money!
