Taming and Using Pet Mimics

Finding Mimics to Tame

Mimics spawn naturally as hostile creatures disguised as chests. To tame one, you'll need to weaken it first through combat, then use a taming item on the weakened mimic. Check your mod's crafting recipes for the specific taming item required.

Managing Your Pet Mimic

Once tamed, your pet mimic becomes a friendly companion that follows you and carries extra inventory space. Use the sit command to make your mimic stay in one location—useful for setting up a base or temporarily storing items.

Combat and Storage Benefits

Tamed mimics fight alongside you during battles, providing combat support. They retain their storage functionality, allowing you to access carried items anywhere. This makes them invaluable for long expeditions where inventory space is limited. Treat your pet mimic well and it will remain loyal throughout your adventures.
