- Liquid metal slimes can be found rarely in the Bowhole, on Slime Hill near Angel Falls after acquiring Sterling's whistle, or occasionally from volcano or ruins grottoes.
- They have 8 HP, so it is recommended to use skills such as Metal Slash or Metalicker to lower their HP enough unless one gets lucky by landing a critical hit with Bagsy Last.

|
The player will need a treasure map with at least ten floors in order to complete the quest. At least one party member will have to remove all of their equipment in order to defeat the monsters. The quest can go by faster by having more than one character without equipment. Their vocation should be changed to one with naturally high Attack, such as a Gladiator. Since the bare party member will be vulnerable, it's recommended to bring a Paladin to protect them with Whipping Boy or Forbearance. The monsters can still be whittled down to low HP with skills and spells. Casting Oomph on the bare party member is also recommended.
