⚡ What Spring Grazer does
Every 16 minutes at base weight, the Nyala eats one unfavorited fruit that has at least 4 mutations. Then everything within 25 studs gets a roll: each fruit has a 20% chance to get Lush (×3), and each pet has a 20% chance to gain 1,200 XP.
Look at the cost: a fruit with 4+ mutations is often worth a lot more than the Lush it hands out. The Nyala is best used where you have plenty of mid-value mutated fruit and want pet XP. Favorite your best fruit.
