Mimic

The Mimic is one of the enemies in Wizard of Legend. It resembles a normal chest until the player attempts to open it, at which point it attacks.

Attacks
The Mimic has a chance to spawn instead of a small chest in a locked room or after clearing a locked room. Its sole attack is to hobble at the player and attempt to bite them.

Strategies
The Mimic is a slightly fast enemy but only triggered if hit, if hit with a strong enough arcana it can taken out before waking up.

There are several ways to distinguish a Mimic from a regular chest:


 * Mimics are slightly darker in colour.
 * Mimics will occasionally twitch and peak out of their chest.
 * Chests are displayed on the minimap, mimics are not.

Additional notes
The Mimic twitches slightly when sleeping, allowing for you to spot it. It can also be spotted if the chest is in the room prior to defeating the enemies, though sometimes it can be a real chest.

Anything that automatically targets enemies, e.g. agent arcana, seeker arcana, sprites or elemental auras, will attack a Mimic even if it is dormant.

Defeating a mimic will still rewards you with the loot a of a small chest.

Mimics appear more often in Hard Mode.
