Tips

  • Since the Corrupt Slime splits into three new enemies upon death, it is great for farming items like Gel, Souls of Night, or the Blindfold. For instance, the chance that at least one Blindfold is dropped from the Corrupt Slime and the three Slimelings is 3.94% / 7.76%, as opposed to 1% / 2% from a single Corrupt Slime or Slimeling.
  • Care should be taken with "volcano-type" farms. When the Corrupt Slime breaks into Slimelings, they will be able to phase through blocks for a short period of time, potentially reaching the player.
    • A Royal Gel can neutralize this threat, however, Slimelings piled up in one area may bring enemy spawning to a halt. Some sort of secondary termination stations are recommended beside the farming spot.

Trivia

  • The BestiaryBestiary entry for the Corrupt Slime: "Steeped in the power of Corruption, these slimes can survive being cut apart into smaller pieces, unlike their untainted brethren."
