Chest Monster/Video Games: Difference between revisions

Line 139:

** When first encountered, their huge well of HP is rather annoying, as it takes forever to kill them. this tends to balance out later in the game, when you can kill them rather quickly and easily.

* In ''[[Enter the Gungeon]]'', Mimics are rare<ref>After three total hours of play time, there is a base 2.25% that any chest will be replaced by a Mimic, plus a cumulative increase of 2.1% for each point of curse the player has, if any.</ref> Elite ~~Mooks~~ that sometimes take the place of a chest, and they are ''nasty''. After making their initial ambush attack, they pull out two Mangums (rapid-fire guns that erratically home in on the player) and attack. Fortunately, there are ways to tell the difference between them and regular chests, and they do yield a lot of treasure if defeated. They come in five varieties, brown, blue, green, red, and black, in ascending difficulty and treasure value.

** Even worse are Wall Mimics, who imitate part of the wall and come to life if struck by a bullet (and given [[Bullet Hell| the type of game this is]], means most of the time) and the Pedestal Mimic, who imitates the pedestal with treasure that appears after you defeat a boss, a brutal [[Kaizo Trap]] there.

** There are also friendly mimics, like Gun Munchers (who give you a good weapon in exchange for two you don’t need) and Mimic Guns, which are indeed mimics who take the form of a moderately useful weapon.
