King Slimes infrequently appear in the area around Helmunaptra, via [[slimification]]. They also appear with much more frequency in Dominicus's Dominion, sometimes in groups of three. They are a [[king slime (Recruit)|recruitable monster]], and learn many helpful supportive skills such as Zing, Kabuff, and Insulate, though they level up somewhat slowly. They can also drop a [[yggdrasil leaf]] upon defeat.

The KingSlime boss can be found in the [[Mountain Tower]]. It is basically a souped-up KingSlime. It should cause no problem to the average party.

<!--original content, yo
From ''[[Dragon Quest IV]]'' on, regular [[slime]]s have the ability to merge into a King Slime. Though the game makes it appear like random behavior, it is actually a different monster group from the beginning.
Slimes that will merge into a King Slime will not attack, only "call for help" until there are eight slimes. Then they will merge. They have more HP, and are fairly resistant against spells that affect a whole group. Thus the player will be able to kill off a few, but not all of them preventing the merger. It is useless to try, since individual slimes do not give experience in this encounter, only the King Slime does.
In ''Dragon Quest IV'', the King Slime is only encountered in chapter four (The Sisters of Monbaraba) around [[Haville]] and [[Aktemto]]. It is the toughest monster to be encountered there, and gives 100 XP and 150 gold (standard slimes give 1 XP and 2 gold). It usually casts [[Fendspell]] early in battle, making it immune to magic attacks. It sometimes drops [[Mystic Acorn]]s that raise max MP.
In subsequent games, the King Slime gained higher HP and rewards (115 XP, 210 gold) and the ability to block the [[wagon]].
