Metal king slimes share their first appearance with their variants, king slimes and [[king cureslime]]s. They do not appear until near the end of the game and are, in the original, NES release, the greatest source of experience in the game: they lose this position to [[platinum king jewel]]s in the remakes. | Metal king slimes share their first appearance with their variants, king slimes and [[king cureslime]]s.

The player can have Torneko randomly steal a [[Liquid metal helm]]. The chances of stealing one is low and the Metal king slime often runs away from battle. To prevent this, the player must have the Sands of Time item in their possession and use it should Metal King Slime run away, the Sands of Time will bring the Metal King Slime back to the battle. The player can then have the other players defend while Torneko does his own move at random. Eventually he will steal the Liquid metal helm and will keep it regardless if Metal King Slime runs away or gets defeated. This is much better way as the player no longer has to buy the Liquid metal helm which is 100,000 coins. | |||
Because their HP is so much higher than other metal monsters, it is usually recommended that [[Alena]] be used to fight them given her high critical hit ratio, which negates the monstrous defense of these metal globs. | Because their HP is so much higher than other metal monsters, it is usually recommended that [[Alena]] be used to fight them given her high critical hit ratio, which negates the monstrous defense of these metal globs. | ||
