The Horde of the Spore is one of the three hordes that you’ll have to deal with in Minecraft Legends. Their army focuses on mushrooms that debuff your army by slowing, rooting, and poisoning it.
The best way to defeat the Horde of the Spore is to utilize Zombies in your army since they are immune to debuffs.
In this guide, I will explain how to defeat the Horde of the Spore in Minecraft Legends.
Before setting off on an adventure, consider optimizing your army by learning how to get rid of golems in Minecraft Legends when they take up too much space.
How to Defeat the Horde of the Spore in Minecraft Legends

To defeat the Horde of the Spore in Minecraft Legends is to fill your army with Zombies. As this horde is mostly filled with mushrooms that apply debuffs, Zombies are ideal options as they are immune to debuffs.
Additionally, Zombies receive less knockback when hit and have high HP.
Combine Zombies with Mossy Golems, Skeletons, and Plank Golems to make a strong and durable team that will make easy work of the enemy units.
As for attacking, the Horde of the Spore outposts do not have outer walls and they are based only on natural defenses. This means that you can simply build stairs from one Spore to another and take them down easily.
Continue taking down outposts until all Spores are destroyed and the final boss, known as The Devourer, spawns.
How to Defeat the Leader of the Spore in Minecraft Legends
The Devourer fight is fairly straightforward. The boss doesn’t change mechanics throughout the entire fight and has slow but strong attacks.
While he will retreat twice and move closer to the Portal behind him at 70% and 30% HP, your strategy should always be the same.
Keep building toward him and spam Zombies, Mossy Golems, and Skeletons.
The most important tip is to get close to The Devourer as soon as possible. While you’re away from him, the boss will continuously launch ranged attacks.
Once your Zombies reach melee range, the fight is pretty much over and you’ll win easily.
Wrapping up
To summarize this Minecraft Legends guide, this is everything you need to know on how to complete the Horde of the Spore and defeat The Devourer.
