Spawn Behavior

In Black Ops: Cold War, Mimics can spawn with normal zombies during the middle and later rounds, or as a piece of loot on the ground that when approached transforms into a Mimic. On The Tomb, Mimics return as a variant called Shock Mimics with the first one spawning in on Round 8, and periodically after that as ground loot or with zombies.

Combat Strategy

Mimics are weak to the ammo mod, and have a big weak point being their glowing open mouth, making them not difficult to deal with, combined with their unimpressive damage. The main threat of mimics is their speed and grab attack, displacing you and possibly putting you within a horde of zombies, almost guaranteeing your death. Therefore, distance is key when fighting Mimics as you want to stay out of their grab range; other than that, any weapon with the ammo mod will do significant damage to their critical point.
