Scaredy-shroom (Spawnable)


 * For the Scaredy-shroom in other games, see Scaredy-shroom.

Scaredy-shroom is a Spawnable Plant in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare. The Scaredy-shroom is a weak damaging plant with a higher rate of fire and is unique because, as with the other mushrooms in the game, it deals a greater amount of damage at night maps. If a zombie comes close to it, it hides similiarly to the original game and receives moderate resistance to attacks. Its attack is Scaredy Shot, which deals around 20 to 35 damage depending on the range. In nighttime maps it deals between 30 to 45 damage. While it is hiding, zombies will never attack it, unless the Scaredy-Shroom attacked them first.

Health
A Scaredy-shroom has less than or equal to 75 health.

Strategies
Since the Scaredy-Shroom hides when a zombie comes near it, it is recommended to put it near the back of your defenses. It works well if placed on an elevated spot with a good view of the surroundings. This will allow it to damage or even shoot down most zombies from afar before they come too close. Putting it in elevated positions will benefit its vantage point.

The Scaredy-Shroom is not useful if placed too close to the zombies because then it will hide and become useless, however this can still be a good thing as the Scaredy-shroom almost becomes shielded from attack. Its superior range allows it to function as a long-range Sniper to attack zombies from afar. It is especially useful when used in combination with Tall-Nut Battlements or Iron Maidens.

Trivia

 * One of the Sunflower's Halloween-themed hats (known as "Frankenflower") is based of the Scaredy-Shroom's costume.
 * It is the only plant that spawnable zombies won't attack willingly unless the Scaredy-Shroom was the last plant to attack them.
