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 granted by the dragon form after casting [[Puff!]] (BeDragon) is capable of of instantly defeating metal slimes. The [[poison needle]] is also capable of instantly slaying them.

The remakes allow for the recruiting of metal slimes, though the chances of one wanting to join the party are abysmally low, combining with their rarity and difficulty in defeating to make them one of the hardest monsters to recruit in the game. Their plethora of resistances and metal slime stats can make them worth the effort, though they are not nearly as versatile as liquid metal slimes.

One of the most difficult monsters to scout
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.
