Pine Mushroom is a prized fungus with a refined pine scent, soft brown cap, and a lingering fragrance. It is the most widely distributed of the three mushroom species in Crimson Desert, found in coniferous and mixed forests throughout the continent of Pywel except in desert regions. Its pleasant aroma and versatile uses make it a favorite among both cooks and alchemists.

Pine Mushrooms appear throughout the forests of Pywel, from the temperate woods of Hernand to the mountain slopes of Pailune. They favor areas near pine and fir trees where needles accumulate on the forest floor.
Hernand Forests: Mixed woodlands east and south of the city yield Pine Mushrooms alongside Oakwood Mushrooms.
Demeniss Highlands: Coniferous stands on higher ground are reliable spots.
Pailune Mountain Forests: Cold-weather pine forests in the mountain regions support consistent growth.
Delesyia Woodlands: Southern forests near the coast also produce Pine Mushrooms in modest quantities.
Because Pine Mushrooms grow across so many regions, they are the mushroom you are most likely to encounter during general exploration. Nodes are marked on your map once found and respawn periodically.
Pine Mushrooms function as a cooking ingredient in mushroom-based recipes. Their distinct fragrance gives dishes a refined flavor profile. Any recipe calling for a generic mushroom ingredient will accept Pine Mushrooms alongside Coral Mushrooms and Oakwood Mushrooms.
Like all mushrooms, Pine Mushrooms produce stamina restoration elixirs when processed through alchemy. Their wide distribution means they are the easiest mushroom to stockpile for bulk elixir production.
Pine Mushrooms are the best mushroom to farm in bulk because they appear in every non-desert region. Set up a loop through several forest areas to maximize your haul.
If you need stamina restoration elixirs and are not near Hernand (for Oakwood) or Demeniss (for Coral), Pine Mushrooms will always be available nearby.
Consider stockpiling extras for trade or for fulfilling companion dispatch requests at the Greymane Camp.
