Spiky hallow crystalloids releasing aerial burst shards

The Crystal Slime is a specialized subterranean creature native to the Underground Hallow and summoned during trials against Queen Slime. Bearing 150 health and 35 defense, it deals 40 contact damage (80 in Expert and 120 in Master). Its back bristles with sharp mineral spikes that hint at its volatile defensive mechanism.

Neutralizing shrapnel detonations in crystalline caverns

When a Crystal Slime is destroyed, it ruptures into a fountain of sharp crystal spikes that arc into the air, dealing heavy damage to players caught standing overhead. Maintaining distance with ranged magic or guns avoids this lethal detonation. Defeated Crystal Slimes drop Gel at 100% (1–2 units) and have a 0.01% chance to yield the Slime Staff.

Trivia

  • Upon death, Crystal Slimes release damaging crystal shrapnel upward that can pierce through wooden platforms.
