You had better pace yourself: Just work on defeating all 100 each day, and keep coming back for three days to do it again. If we luck out, after three days that should drive them away for awhile.
We've counted 100 of these enraged Mimics in the Wilds, and as soon as you wipe them out, a new pack of the creatures arrives in their place. You'll need to kill all 100 of them each day for three days.
Our efforts on the Ground must be succeeding, because even Blowgrubs are becoming enraged now! They've swarmed throughout the Hatchwood Wilds, and they're much more powerful than normal -- and not nearly as docile!
