What are Mimics?
These are powerful beings that come in various shapes and sizes. The first time you may have found one of these creatures is in the Great Pyramid. These are your typical ones that do an incredible amount of damage but are susceptible to most attacks. Mimics in the Maoza Cave is a different story.
Manoza Cave hosts various treasure chests to open, at least on floor B2, but don’t be fooled by their enticing allure. These treasure chests can be mimics in disguise. Considering this is a lengthy dungeon to begin with, being able to avoid them is crucial, especially because, while they don’t have a lot of HP, most of your attacks barely do any damage and they can still hit like a truck if they want to.
