The '''Liquid Metal Slime''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}. Introduced in {{Dragon Quest II}}, it is a metallic [[Bubble slime]] that acts as a large source of experience points. Players are tipped off to Liquid metal slimes being in an area by the presence of [[Hunter mech]]s, which are seemingly programmed to track down the silver sludge. 


The '''Liquid Metal Slime''' is a recurring monster in the ''[[Dragon Quest series|Dragon Quest]]'' series. Introduced in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]'', it is a metallic [[bubble slime]] that acts as a large source of experience points.
==Characteristics==
In terms of appearance, Liquid metal slimes are essentially identical to [[Bubble slime]]s, but are a slick silver in colour and shine indicative of the [[Metal slime family|metal slime family]]. This is rumoured to the little globs being made out of the precious [[Orichalcum]] metal, but this has never been affirmed.


==Characteristics==
Liquid metal slimes have the standard qualities of metal monsters: high {{Agility}}, high {{Defence}}, immunity to essentially all forms of magic, skills, and status ailments, very low {{HP}}, very high experience payout, and the unfavourable habit of running away from battle frequently. Although a step up from the [[Metal slime]], the Liquid metal slime is rarely shown to be competent at fighting, its only enhancements being its {{HP}} and the {{Exp}}erience it gives when compared to Metal slimes.

Liquid metal slimes have the standard qualities of metal monsters: high agility, high defense, immunity to essentially all forms of magic and skills, very low HP, very high experience payout, and the unfavorable habit of running away from battle frequently. Although a step up from the metal slime, the liquid metal slime is rarely shown to be competent at fighting, its only enhancements being its HP and the experience it gives when compared to metal slimes. Due to being encountered (comparatively) more frequently than metal king slimes and only having marginally higher HP but approximately ten times as many experience points than metal slimes, the liquid metal slime is the most popular of the silver slimes.
Due to being encountered (comparatively) more frequently than Metal king slimes and only having marginally higher HP but approximately ten times as many experience points than [[Metal slime]]s, the Liquid metal slime is the most popular choice amongst power leveling adventurers.

A popular strategy for vanquishing the L.M.S. is to have a [[mage]] and [[priest]] cast [[Puff!]] and [[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 and the [[Headsman's axe]] has a 1/8 chance to land a critical hit. 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%.

* 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.

* Liquid metal slimes are commonly found in the [[Royal Crypt]] southwest of [[Endor]] by sea. They can occasionally drop Happy hats 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 experience points, they also have a habit of appearing alongside troublesome monsters 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 partners 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.

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]].
