Mimic

• 

  A miffed Mimic.

• 

  A disguised Mimic.

The Mimic is a potentially hostile mob added by Project Zulu. They notably spawn inside of pyramids and labyrinths.

Behavior

Mimics look like chests, and will remain passive until a player attempts to use them like a regular chest, gets too close, or attacks them.

Avoidance

Mimics can be easily avoided because placing the crosshair on one brings up its information in the HUD, alerting the player to its true nature.

Notes

• In most games in which they appear, Mimics are very tough and difficult to detect, but drop worthwhile loot to make up for it. In Hexxit, however, they are spectacularly easy to detect and kill, and their loot is mostly useless.
• When a Mimic spawns near a normal chest, they do not combine, giving its positioning away very easily, even without the HUD.
