Flummoxium

Flummoxium is a pastel, multi-colored liquid that stains any creature with the 
Confused debuff on contact, reversing horizontal movement directions.
Characteristics
Enemies affected by this material can get stuck against walls, and those with lunging melee attacks will lunge in the wrong direction for the duration. Instead of causing enemies to fire in the opposite direction, it simply increases their projectiles' spread, thus reducing their overall accuracy.
For every 10% of Flummoxium consumed, the duration of the Confused effect increases by 10 seconds.
Sources
- It can occasionally be found within the Ancient Laboratory.
- It has a 2.424% chance of being the outcome of a Fungal Reality Shift.
- It can be created by mixing Worm Pheromone and Worm Blood.
- There is a ~6.244% chance that a potion on a pedestal will be
Flummoxium. - There is a chance of receiving Flummoxium from a Treasure Chest.
Tips
- Since Flummoxium (and Worm Pheromone, one of its ingredients) cannot be generated easily from spells like Chaotic Transmutation, it is difficult to acquire large amounts of it for alchemy.
- This is important if you intend to use Guiding Powder to find Orbs of True Knowledge in New Game Plus, since Flummoxium is one of its ingredients.
- SPOILER: Kolmisilmä has a material vulnerability to Flummoxium at 16 orbs.
