Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Hints
How do I get mimic's blood for the wizard?
1 of 11: A ways to the north, across the river, there is a cave.
2 of 11: In the cave there is a chest.
3 of 11: Remember what the mage told you about mimics?
4 of 11: They can disguise themselves as chests.
5 of 11: Well this is one of them.
6 of 11: Try to open it, and it will come to life and attack you. Two umber hulks will come out.
7 of 11: Kill the mimic first, and then deal with the hulks.
8 of 11: Unlock the chest, take the mimic blood, and bring it back to the mage.
9 of 11: Oh NO! The golem has gone crazy!
10 of 11: Well, you should probably save him.
11 of 11: Help the wizard kill the golem, and everything will be all happy, and you'll get a nice shortsword.
