Although I had already gotten one of these at the spot where Brewell's maps says, but I also got it while camping a pestilent shrieker where it allegedly spawns at -677, -137, -94.
Ok I been in the Deep about 16hrs trying to get deepspore mushrooms to spawn. I am a 68 paladin and I have earned over 2 AA points from the LB's here, and have only found 3 deepspore mushrooms. I have not gotten any to spawn from the ancients, seem to only be from the shriekers. Am I missing something vital? I only need to kill 2 more and just cant seem to get them. Any input would be appreciated.
I tried several areas, and the only spot that I had any luck was at loc 272, 260. If you come in from Echo Caverns, and go right, right, left the next intersection you come to has 3 shrooms that spawn. There are 2 thought leech spiriters (can be young thought leech too) gaurding one tunnel, and partway down the others are some entralled outcasts and underbulks. I got the deepspore to spawn both at the loc above with the 3 shrooms, and East of the two leech spiriters where there are about 5 shrooms. All the PH's are the shriekers.
Anyways, I had tried in a few other spots without much luck, including the other side of the chasm. But once I found one at this location I just stayed there keeping it clear till I got all 5 I needed. I'm sure they spawn at other areas, but this is the only one I found.

I've gotten my 5. Two of them were nearer to the southernmost entry to the east side of the chasm, one was a bit north of the spot you mentioned, but one actually spawned on the very first shrieker spawn point you find when you first zone in from Echo Caverns and a bit later another spawned just past that one on the second shrieker spawn point near the entry.
Based on that I'm fairly convinced that they can spawn on pretty much any shrieker spawn point in the eastern half of the zone. Just pick any area with some shriekers and kill them until the deepspore mushrooms you need spawn. Do a circuit if you like, invising past non-shrieker mobs to the little clumps of shriekers and kill them there. Just keep at it and you'll get the ones you need eventually.
I could NOT get these to spawn on the west side of the chasm from ancient shrieker fields. I did, however, manage to get them to spawn in the NE corner clearing by clearing regular shriekers.
The deepspore are part of the Task for the 3rd level of dwarven cultural armor, The Master's Book of Dwarven Culture:
The Deep: Kill 80 thought horrors The Deep: Loot 40 Thought horror fangs (From Horror Guards doesnt count) Kaladim: Deliver 4 Thought Horror fangs to Yar Shiverbow The Deep: Kill 5 deepspore Mushrooms The Deep: Loot 1 A Deepspore Kaladim: Deliver 1 Deepspore to Yar Shiverbow
I think these just exist to be a stop sign for people running around invis. Took me half an hour to reach invis bridge because there were about three deepspore mushrooms in huge shroom patches all over. Every one I met sees invis :P
I was in the deep the other day, just 1 grp and we were able to slowly make our way inside, had to be carefull of pops behind us, but we were able to kill stuff fast enough to not have to worry about it. I just wanted to say that this guy conned even to a level 54, so apparently they can be higher than 52.
