Owing to the fact that the {{Hero 1}} is fighting all by himself, liquid metal slimes flee less often than they normally do in games with full parties.

*A popular strategy for vanquishing liquid metal slimes is to have a [[Mage]] cast [[Puff!]] and then a [[Priest]] casting [[Accelerate]] on the first turn of the encounter, incinerating them automatically on the next turn. For [[Warrior]]s, the [[Spiked armour]] is handy to punish them for attacking directly and having a [[Falcon blade]] will give them twice as many chances to attack. The [[Headsman's axe]] has a {{fraction|1|8}}th chance to land a [[Critical Hit]], but also a 1/8th chance to miss altogether on top of the monster's dodge rate. A [[Martial Artist]] of a reasonably high level will have a great [[Critical Hit]] rate to rely upon as well, with the calculation being level/256 with a cap of 25% at Level 64.

All of the strategies in the older versions of {{III}} work in the HD-2D Remake, including the [[Puff!]] spell. This spell overrides the liquid metal slimes' normal immunity to Fire damage as a homage to the tried and true [[grinding]] method from the late 80's. Do note that [[Spooky Aura]] always works on [[metal slime]]s but cannot increase spell damage against them: 0 damage multiplied by 1.8 is still 0 damage.

*Liquid metal slimes are commonly found in the [[Royal Crypt]] southwest of [[Endor]] by sea. They can occasionally drop [[Happy hat]]s or {{Torneko}} can steal one at random. It is best to use the [[Sands of time]] item as they can run away and it may take many tries before {{Torneko}} successfully steals a [[Happy hat]] at random.

Liquid metal slimes can be encountered shortly after the player obtains a [[ship]]. Though they remain an excellent source of {{exp}}erience points, they also have a habit of appearing alongside troublesome {{MFamilies}}s such as [[hoodlum]]s and [[hocus chimaera]]s. Exceptionally lucky and/or vigilant players may obtain a defeated liquid metal slime [[Liquid metal slime (Recruit)|as an ally]], one of the most potent monster companions that can be had in the game.

Liquid metal slimes appeared from the beginning of the game, dropping 20,100 experience when defeated. As always, their metallic bodies mean that they take almost no damage and they are quick to flee from battle. They can cast [[Boom]] on characters. There is also a rare item known as the Liquid metal coin that allows players to encounter liquid metal slimes when used in the Magic Labyrinth.

==={{DQ11}}===
Liquid metal slimes, along with other members of the metal slime family in this game, only appears when fighting other {{MFamilies}}s. Additionally, depending on the {{Party 11}}'s average level scale, the [[Pep|Pep Power]] Electro Light may replace enemies fought in a normal battle with Liquid metal slimes or their [[Vicious monsters|vicious]] versions.

Liquid metal slimes appear, as of yet, exclusively as enemies in various stages where they can be defeated for high amounts of experience. They can cast [[Sizz]] or will waste their turns doing nothing and eventually flee after enough turns have passed if they aren't defeated first. Liquid metal slimes drop more experience than a [[Metal slime]], but less than a [[Metal Healie]].
