    Noita has chest mimics. They’re often reasonably easy to spot and there’s no reason not to just attack a chest before you touch it

    What you don’t tend to find out until much later is that it also has health pickup mimics in a game where healing is very tough to come by outside of those pickups

    And also sometimes you get health pickup mimics from inside non-mimic chests

      And it definitely needed to have the chain pointing to you so it’d be your fault

        Those chests will guaranteed survive at least two hits from any weapon in the game, just have any sort of tactical restraint and you’ll never encounter this problem. If you hit it once and a health bar appears, keep swinging, if not then don’t. Simple easy

        Also, DS2 mimics have visible teeth, as well as a completely different chest model with extra locks on the front of it.

    No need to ask, just play the game so much you memorize all locations /s
