The '''Metal slime''' is a monster in the series.


The '''metal slime''' (sometimes '''Metaly''' due to display constraints) is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in the [[Dragon Quest|original game]], it is a [[slime]] with a metallic body
==Characteristics==
Metal slimes are nearly identical to a normal [[slime]], with its only notable differences being its silver-grey colouring and metallic luster.


==Characteristics==
Metal slimes are noteworthy for having one of the highest {{Exp}}erience point payouts of any enemy in the games, exceeded only by far stronger monsters and other [[Metal slime family|metal slimes]]; even some bosses pay out less than a single Metal slime does. This comes at a catch, however: metal slimes rarely appear, and when they do, they usually run away at the first chance, often without a scratch due to their high {{Agility}} and {{Defence}}. Even if the player gets lucky and a metal slime or two decide to stick around for a turn, nearly all normal attacks will either miss or do a measly 1 point of damage, though their low {{HP}} means every hit counts. Nearly all forms of spell and skill are completely ineffective against metal slimes.
As far as appearances go, the metal slime is nearly identical to a normal slime, with its only notable differences being its gray coloring and metallic luster.


Metal slimes are infamous monsters in the series, and for a good reason: they have one of the highest experience point payouts of any enemy in the games, exceeded only by far stronger monsters and other metal monsters; even some bosses pay out less than a single metal slime does. This comes at a catch, however: metal slimes rarely appear, and when they do, they usually run in an instant, often without a scratch due to a very high speed stat. Even if the player gets lucky and a metal slime or two decide to stick around for a turn, nearly all normal attacks will either miss or do a measly 1 point of damage, though their low HP means every hit counts. Nearly all forms of spell and skill are completely ineffective against metal slimes. There are very few exceptions to this.
Anti-metal weapons such as the [[Metal slime spear]] will always deal damage to a metal slime, and weapons such as the [[Poison needle]] and [[Hela's hammer]] that can either instantly kill or have a higher chance of landing a critical hit are effective countermeasures for hunting metal slimes. Certain games program the phials of [[holy water]] to act as non-elemental equivalents of the [[Frizz]] spell when tossed at monsters in battle, dealing 1 point of damage when used on metal slimes.

Metal slimes make their first appearance as the greatest source of {{Exp}}erience from any monster. The player may start dealing normal damage to metal slimes as they near the Level 30 cap. Due to the fact that true spell immunity does not exist in the original NES version, [[Sizz]] and [[Sizzle]] have a higher chance ({{fraction|1|16}}) to slay the slimes than [[Critical Hit]]s ({{fraction|1|64}}).
Metal slimes make their first appearance as the greatest source of experience from a normal monster, the only other creature coming close in the original release being the [[red dragon]] that falls short 15 points from the metal slime's payout. The player may start dealing normal damage to metal slimes as they near the level 30 cap.

The [[Fire Breath]] used by [[Puff!]] is capable of instantly defeating metal slimes. Because the transformation drastically cuts the caster's {{Agility}}, it is strongly advised to follow up with [[Acceleratle]].

==={{DQ10}}===
Metal slimes appeared from the beginning of the game, dropping 1,206 experience when defeated. In order to discourage players from leveling too quickly, metal slimes would not appear on the field, only accompanying other monsters. They are highly impervious to all forms of harm, can cast [[Frizz]] on opponents and naturally, have a high chance of fleeing from battle.
 
Starting with Version 1.1, an item known as the Metal ticket would cause a metal slime to appear when used as a tool in battle. Version 1.2 also introduced the metal slime coin, which would allow players to encounter metal slimes when used in the Magic Labyrinth.

Metal slimes may first appear on [[Celeste Isle]], where the [[hunter mech]]s hint to their residence on the island. They can also show up on [[Fert Isle]]. However, "yellow-bellies" will not appear on the overworld in any of these instances. The Metal Menagerie on [[Palaish Isle]] is the only place where metal slimes can be seen before engaging in a battle, though this area cannot be accessed until after the player solidifies his or her position in the finals of the tournament.
<br><br>
Given their resilience, metal slimes are one of the most difficult {{MFamilies}}s to scout, though not nearly as much as the stronger metal {{MFamilies}}s the player can run into. In the early parts of the game, a [[Critical Hit]] during the scouting process is one of the most reliable ways to scout one, though a great deal of luck is still needed.

'''NOTE:''' [[Monster sizes|large-sized]] metal slimes are programmed to have unique stat reductions instead of those brought on by the [[Tactical Genius]] trait, with their maximum HP, MP, attack, and wisdom being reduced by 30% while their defence and agility are increased by 10%.

Metal slimes have a reaction time faster than most players, and it is advised to corner them on cliffsides if possible. The little bugger can jump though, so try to corral them in areas with walls at least two blocks high.

Metal slimes may first appear on Celeste Isle, where the [[hunter mech]]s hint to their residence on the island. They can also show up on Fert Isle. However, metal slimes will not appear on the overworld in any of these instances. The metal menagerie on Palaish Isle is the only place where metal slimes can be seen before engaging in a battle, though this area cannot be accessed until after the player solidifies his or her position in the finals of the tournament.

Given their resilience, metal slimes are one of the most difficult monsters to scout, though not nearly as much as the stronger metal monsters the player can run into. In the early parts of the game, a critical hit during the scouting process is one of the most reliable ways to scout one, though a great deal of luck is still needed.

Metal slimes can be scouted by a [[Meddle slime]]. They are Rank D monsters. They can also be encountered in a cave in the Iceolation part of the Island.

Goodith appears to be a metal slime.
Metal slimes are, as of yet, encountered exclusively as enemies on stages such as EXP Quest: Beginner and Intermediate, as well as certain stages where they have a random chance to appear and can be defeated for high amounts of experience. They can cast [[Frizz]] or will waste their turns doing nothing and eventually flee after enough turns have passed if they aren't defeated first.

A Metal slime appears as one of the costumes for [[Slime]] in this game.
