Hidden Gumball
To get the Sunflower gumball:
- Do not plant the Jack's Magic Bean that you receive on Floor 1. This can not be completed if you plant that seed.
- Collect 300 Black Thorn Seed. Can be dropped by plant-type enemies or purchased from Dave's Cottage
- Obtain Sunflower Seed and plant it. Obtainable from Boss floors beginning with 30F.
- Purchase 10 Sunlight from the Sunflower (for 30 Black Thorn Seed each) to obtain Sunflower Gumball or 20 .
- You can also get some Sunlight from other sources like from Bunny's eggs but the ones created via Sunflower's own skill (if you have him in team) do not count.
- Once Sunflower is obtained, you can plant Jack's Magic Bean or another Sunflower Seed if you have one.
- You can repeat the process for fragments on later runs
Note: you can use the Sunlights as you purchase them, you don't need to stockpile them.

Skills
- Death Impact - Launch an attack every 3 rounds to cause 300% damage
- Withered Branch - Cause the Withered Branch effect when a mushroom dies (Loses 15% of total HP from an attack by Magic Vines. The effect lasts 3 rounds.)
The Magic Resistance, Physical Resistance and Reflect Damage on the boss as well as the extra MP cost on spell-casting come from the 4 mushroom minions with the same Health and Attack, but each with their own ability.
Mushroom-Green
Amanita Verna - Poisons the enemy after being killed (Loses HP each round. The effect will last 3 rounds.)
Bind - When active, enhances the Ancient Guardian's Physical Resistance by 70%
Mushroom-Pink
Amanita Verna - Poisons the enemy after being killed (Loses HP each round. The effect will last 3 rounds.)
Bind - When active, enhances the Ancient Guardian's Magic Resistance by 70%
Mushroom-Red
Amanita Verna - Poisons the enemy after being killed (Loses HP each round. The effect will last 3 rounds.)
Bind - When active, the Ancient Guardian is able to reflect 50% of damage suffered
Mushroom-Yellow
Amanita Verna - Poisons the enemy after being killed (Loses HP each round. The effect will last 3 rounds.)
Bind - When active, increases the MP consumption of enemies by 3X
Basic strategy is to eliminate Mushrooms in time with Magic Vine attacks, and then attack the boss after the mushrooms are defeated.
