Phagocyte
Phagocyte is one of the most universal utility skills available to the
Mush. At the expense of a
Spore it restores a considerable 4
and 4
, turning it into the closest thing the Mush have to a food substitute. Before Constipaspore Serum and/or Antispore Gas are researched, Phagocyte can be used for a number of interesting plays, as it restores more
than extracting the
Spore costs, however the daily extraction limit draws a clear line in its utility.
Phagocyte is exceptional in that it's Invisible, meaning it can only be detected by action-revealing skills such as
Torturer or
Premonition. Therefore, you can pair it with consumption of a regular
Cooked Ration to create the illusion of having recovered
from eating; this may be helpful to fool players who keep track of everybody's activity levels.
Bug: The action tooltip states the action is
Covert; this is not true, as it's actually Invisible.
