Despite its low base damage output, the Gust-shroom's area of effect allows it to stack damage with itself. This, paired with the fact that it will attack multiple zombies at once, means that the Gust-shroom can still make a noticeable effect against the zombies, not counting its chill effect.
Its chill effect can extinguish certain zombies' flame-based attacks like , nullifying their threats to your defense. As a chilling plant, it will also deal more damage against Scorched Zombie.
