Talk:Slimes

Overpowered Slimes
So a few minutes back I encountered some green slimes that did 95 damage, and had about 388 health. This was in a Expert+Hardmode world, at first I thought it'd be a bug, but after making after making a new world for testing purposes, I found that the slimes stay relatively week in Expert mode, Pre-Hardmode. But after killing the Wall of Flesh and thus entering Hardmode the slimes in this world also changed to a stronger being. In this case they did a 'mere' 36 damage on average and had about 276 health. Have other people encountered these randomly strengthened slimes, or is this just some weird clientsided bug? --SlyVortex 17:12, 13 September 2015
 * Reports of this are common, and it is intended. Enemies are empowered in Expert mode, even moreso in expert hardmode. They also scale with the number of players present. Gearzein (talk) 15:30, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Good to hear it's not another bug on my client :]
 * It just really surprised me as this wasn't noted anywhere (as far as I could find, that is) --SlyVortex  21:32, 13 September 2015

Slime drop infoboxes
People keep adding slime drop infoboxes back to their wiki pages, and I'm not sure I disagree with the practice. Can we reverse the policy of omitting the drop rates from slimes on their respective pages? It's not being done with any other enemy group, and with the increased diversity in slimes lately they aren't dominated by simple palette swaps any more. --Theothersteve7 16:22, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

Slimes floating upstream, bug or no bug?
I don't think its really a bug, it would actually make sense that it floats upstream. (Just slower)

Should it be an anomaly?

Lava Slime and Gel
I've never seen a Lava Slime dropping gel on death. Is it just me, or should the page be amended?

So I've currently setup a pre-hardmode slime farm just to test what happens in the new update, and it that every 50 slimes killed a messages pops up where text normally comes up, and the player receives a slime banner straight to their inventory, it is not dropped on the ground.
