    I would like to confirm that you can loose the crest key from the Mimic in Oolacile Township. I died shortly after killing the mimic and I could see the key there ready to be picked up. However it wasn't there anymore after I came back from the bonfire. waiting

    I can confirm that there are certain items that will be lost if you do not pick them up before dying. The Crest Key is one of them.

    I thought it was like that with all Mimic drops. I saw a Dark Souls stream wherein the streamer killed the Mimic in Sen's Fortress (dropping the Lightning Spear) but then died soon after to the boulders IIRC. He respawned at the bonfire but then when he returned to the Mimic's location there was no item there to collect.

    I fail to see how it would be any different for any other Mimic drops.

    The Crest Key is important though, sort of. Maybe check behind Frampt and see in the important stuff dropped chest?

    It ultimately unlocks the path to fight the black dragon Kalameet.
    Excerpt from Wiki:
    Spoiler:

    After that you are able to kill him and get some nice rewards.
    Though I'll have to wait until the next playthrough because of my messup.

    No...
    Kalameet on NG+ or higher is a joke.

    You missed out, unfortunately. He's the hardest boss in the game.

    And that's without the tail cut.

    That tail cut... such horrors should not be spoken of.

    Kalameet will meet his doom by my sword, every other boss is already dead happy He is very hard no doubt, but I've watched several guys doing it with cutting off his tail. Studying these fights and the wiki pages tell you a lot of tactics on how to beat him. If that fails you can try co-op. There is a co-op strategy involving the Dragon greatbow.
    And then if you start a new character you can still try the first time round after you get the Crest key.

    Kalameet is not the type of enemy you can simply "Watch a video on and be a pro at." He is completely RNG based and will punish you severely for overconfidence.

    Also, that tail cut alone makes him the hardest boss. He's also the hardest without the tail cut. So combine them together to get... the hardest boss in the game...

    Oh no Kalameet is one you have to face and study well to win. You need to face him to know what he is like and his tail has to be the hardest thing to do in this game.

    But all the other bosses are easier.

    So he's the hardest boss.



    Whether he's hard in terms of difficulty is up to debate.

    Not really, I just used an older backup save(PC) got the key and beat him to death with my Zweihänder happy, just to proove to myself that I can do it. 6 tries was all it took. Now onto Manus.

    I, uh.... totally got him on the first try, with the tail cut..... BUT, that was co-op. He is certainly very challenging; it so happens that the things I do naturally seem to work well against him. Just, like, roll-patterns and when I sit and block, when I heal, etc. I *personally* struggled a lot more with Artorias than against Kalameet.


    By the way, which mimic drops the crest key? I have this sinking feeling that I might've thrown it away -- but I don't think I *died* since killing it, I just moved on and never picked up the item, and then warped away without really thinking about it.

     edit: ugh. Yeah, that's the one I shot..... crap.... well, only one way to find out I guess....

    Well, I went back today, hoping to find the crest key... AND I TOTALLY DID WOOO.

    So, logging off, warping, resting, shutting down, loading other characters, restarting..... none of that makes the item drop go away, because I totally did all of that. For it to disappear, you have to actually die.
