==Characteristics==
==Characteristics==
Metal slime knights look just like slime knights beyond color changes. One could say that the color of the knight and the slime have been switched around, with the slime being gray and the knight being green.
Contrary to most players' expectations, the Metal slime knight does not yield the incredible experience points befitting [[Metal slime|their namesake]], as either the [[Metal slime]]s that let themselves get captured by the [[Slime knight]]s are the least experienced slimes, or the [[Slime knight]]s shield their steeds from the finishing blow. Indeed, they do not even bear vulnerability to anti-metal weapons and skills, nor do they possess astonishing speed, a high chance of dodging attacks and immunity to magic. Instead, rumors abound that the steed is merely painted chrome...


Although they are indicated as being [[metal monsters]], metal slime knights are more metal in name than anything else. They lack the monstrous defenses, speed, resistances, and experience points typical of metal monsters.
In the {{PlayStation 2}} remake of {{V}}, it was further distinguished from a [[Slime knight]] by wielding different weaponry. It is also depicted with a different color scheme.

*Unlike other metal slime monsters, they don't give a tremendous amount of experience points. This is noted in their ''Dragon Quest IX'' bestiary entries, which state that their metal slime mounts were only captured because they were the "least experienced".

The Metal slime knight is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series.

Introduced in Dragon Quest V, it is a stronger variant of a Slime knight.

Characteristics[edit]

Contrary to most players' expectations, the Metal slime knight does not yield the incredible experience points befitting their namesake, as either the Metal slimes that let themselves get captured by the Slime knights are the least experienced slimes, or the Slime knights shield their steeds from the finishing blow. Indeed, they do not even bear vulnerability to anti-metal weapons and skills, nor do they possess astonishing speed, a high chance of dodging attacks and immunity to magic. Instead, rumors abound that the steed is merely painted chrome...

In the PlayStation 2 remake of V, it was further distinguished from a Slime knight by wielding different weaponry. It is also depicted with a different color scheme.

Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker[edit]

Metal slime knights can be found on Infern Isle. It is wise to scout them when first possible, as in-game events will later alter the island and prevent Metal slime knights from appearing.
