Anyone have Mimic info?

[b0b]

Does anyone know the actual requirements of spawning the mimic egg?

I got the mimic egg right at the end of my normal playthrough, so I didn't get to enjoy it. Started up NG+ and my pets were gone. I've not almost completed NG+ as well and can't seem to get a mimic egg.

Do I need to kill one type of mimic 10 times, ie 10 wood mimics? But 9 wood mimics plus 9 iron mimics won't do it?

Or, as per the moonlighter wiki, do I need to kill 5 of each type (5 wood, 5 iron, 5 gold)?

As I mentioned in another thread, I just tried using a gate warp trick, but it didn't *seem* to work. When I found a mimic and killed it, went one room over, used warp gate to go back to town then went right back into the dungeon, and killed the mimic again. Rinse, repeat.

I don't know how many mimics of each type I've killed in total, but I did count out 5 of each type using the above "tactic"/"cheap trick".

I had just saved my game after beating up a wood mimic for the 5th time in a row using that trick, so I'm going to go back into the game and beat it up another 5 times. If it drops the egg, I'll come back and let you know.

EDIT: Nope. Just finished killing a single wood mimic 10 times. So maybe doing that gate thing doesn't work if the enemy only counts as "one mimic" no matter how many times it spawns from that *particular* dungeon floor.

I have a score of 7/5/9 W/I/G mimic kills. I just got my 5th iron mimic kill but it didn't register. The egg didn't drop. I'm not sure if this was because my graaf companion damaged the mimic and nullified some sort of requirement.

Does anyone here know what the save file code is for the mimic? I've been endlessly reloading a dungeon to spawn in mimics, trying to get it without any success. I just achieved the 5/5/5 quota and the egg did NOT drop. I really want to move on to NG+ and get my remaining achievements.

By save file code, I mean the pet mimic equivalent of "FOREST_WIND_TREE","GOLEM_TURRET","GOLEM_FLYING_REPAIR","FOREST_BLADE_TREE","DESERT_MOTHER_GOLEM","DESERT_DANCER_PUPPET","TESLA_GRAAF_GENERATOR","TESLA_RECHARGER".

Thanks for the hint. I tried looking at those files through notepad earlier and it came out gibberish. Tried with notepad++ and it worked like a charm.

On my normal playthrough where I got it, it was listed as: ,"WOOD_MIMIC"

I copied that to the ngp data and it worked. So it should work for you too.

Weird thing is that according to the save data, I had only killed 4 wood mimics, 7 iron mimics, and 4 gold mimics. Yet I got the egg.

Thanks for the code! I already got the mimic egg to drop the legit way though, even though my mimic kill ratio was some kind of 7/6/9 or something. It certainly wasn't 10 of either or a 5/5/5, odd as that may be.

By the way, do you know if conventional companions also get a NG+ upgrade with improved stats? Or are they just the same as before, scaling off of equipped weapon damage?

I gave up on it after like 20 kills each type (except for Red). What's the point anyway, it's like the achievements. Why add stuff that takes weeks to do, when the game lasts a day or two and has 0 replayability ffs. So disappointed I came back to this title.

The best way to do it is to go back into the Golem Dungeon and farm gold mimics, then go back to your current dungeon and kill one, that's how I got the egg.
