Symbol of Avarice

In-Game Description

Headpiece depicting the avaricious creature
that mimics treasure chests.
Increases soul absorption and item discovery,
but steadily drains HP.

There is a curious tale of an incorrigibly covetous
ancient deity. Clearly it has currency amongst some
miscreants, or this would have never been crafted.

Availability

Dropped by a Mimic near the Inner Wall bonfire in Frozen Eleum Loyce.

General Information

• Increases souls gained by 2.5%.
• Increases Item Discovery by ?.

Notes

• Tongue has physics and flaps around as you move, making this a popular piece of equipment in PvP.
• Unfortunately, there is only a metal type not a wooden type of headset from the previous game, Dark Souls.
