Possitble to get 2 Symbol of Avarice in 1 playthrough
Just wondering because I thought this game works like DS1 and DS2 where you have a chance of getting it but if you kill all you get 1, so is it possible to get 2

as far as I know, every mimic has a random chance to drop one. so you could get lucky with more than one.

im pretty sure i got two on a character.

If you use undead hunter charms I'm pretty sure you can farm them infinitely.

you have to kill them to get the avarice drop. if you use the charm, you only get the regular item.

No you can get the avarice drop without killing them. You just need to be lucky. That's how I got mine.

Yeah, the random number generator decides if you will get the avarice when you put the mimic to sleep. So just use hunter charms, wait for it to wake up (or attack it, can't remember how to safely do that without killing it) then use another until you get the avarice.

The way I farmed mine was by loading up on charms then running to the area to the side of Yhorm's arena. There's 2 mimics that you can hit with 1 charm. Throw a charm on them, slap them with a weak weapon if they don't drop it to reset them, repeat.
Maybe not with the same mimic. I got it then farmed it over 100 times with all the gear and never got it again.

Like others have stated before, in the area just before Yhorm, there's two Mimics just sitting side by side. That's the absolute best place to farm them.

For the sake of comparison, I just ran through NG+3 to the room and tested it with the following using charms. With 60 Luck, Crystal Sage's Rapier, and Rusted Coins, I ran in five times and hit each chest with one charm. After five runs, I procured six Symbols of Avarice -- roughly an average of 1.2 per run.

SCIENCE!
