Mimic (Dark Souls II)

For the Dark Souls variant, see: Mimic 

Mimics are a type of enemy on Dark Souls II.

The first mimic encounter is in the Earthen Peak. They are very similar to the mimics in Dark Souls, in the way they pretend to be treasure chests and lunge when the player opens them. If the player attacks the chest before they open it, damage will be done to the mimic. The mimic will then slowly open its mouth, and then suddenly lunge ahead. Opening a mimic chest usually results in death. They do not respawn, similar to their Dark Souls counterparts.
