However, what really sets the Mimic apart is that because it copies your equipment at the moment of creation, you can then swap out items to effectively give your copy a different loadout. It also means it will benefit from weapons that you've bolstered with smithing stones - the higher the weapon level, the more damage your Mimic will deal with it. This means that any weapon you can wield, the Mimic can and will too - including making use of Ashes of War. The Mimic doesn't have your exact strength or your HP pool, as using Glovewort to bolster it will increase its durability and damage output - but it will have your stats.

This goes for equipped weapons, armor, a few charges of your flask, and even other tools in your pouch! The best part about this is that these won't take any consumables from your own pouch, meaning each time you summon the Mimic it can apply weapon grease, toss pots, throw darts, and utilize pretty much anything in addition to weapon attacks, blocking, dodging, weapon skills. The Mimic essentially functions as an NPC double of your character: It will use whatever you have on you at the moment of creation. Unlike how you summon spirits of a different kind, the Mimic Tear doesn't require FP to summon - it requires a whopping 660 Health instead! For certain builds, this may not even be feasible, but even if you have 661 health, it's well worth trading it for a charge of your healing flask - as long as you live long enough to drink it once you summon the Mimic. You'll need to use a Stonesword Key to open this barrier, and on the other side you'll find a Nox Swordstress guarding a chest that holds the prize - the Mimic Tear Spirit Ashes. Don't hop down, but instead cross to the other side of the chapel to find a hallway leading to an Imp Sealed Door.

Instead, head across the bridge into the Ancestral Woods and hang along the left ridgeline until you find a Site of Grace for this area, and a series of building rooftops you can hop across to enter Night's Sacred Ground.Īfter fighting a few more mimics, you can cross an archway to enter a large cathedral looking place, with a lower section below you. Enter this new area and move through the ruins until you face the Mimic Tear as a Miniboss, though killing it won't enough to gain its ashes.
