Metal Slime: Difference between revisions

** The White Mushrooms, Black Fungus, and Rare Truffles from the first ''[[Kingdom Hearts (video game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' game. All three appear only at a few set locations... maybe. All three have a chance of dropping extremely rare items if you defeat them in ''exactly'' the right way. That's it for the White Mushrooms and Rare Truffles, which are completely harmless. The Black Fungus, on the other hand, complete their [[Metal Slime]] status by gushing poison at you and periodically turning completely invulnerable.

** ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' features Bulky Vendors: a variant of Metal Slime. While they appear randomly, run away, and can't be killed by conventional means, they are killed extremely easy with Reaction Commands. Rather than giving large amounts of experience, they drop rare items. The rarity of the item is directly related to its health, which is constantly depleting as soon as it spawns. But there's a catch: it's relatively slow when it first spawns, but as its health goes down, its speed goes up, and this thing almost literally bounces all over the place. So you're better off [[Guide Dang It|looking for Orichalcum]] then trying to get one from a Bulky Vendor. Regardless, when you smack them with a Reaction Command they drop a crap ton of materials used for synthesis with their rarity depending on how much health they had when you used a Reaction Command. Also, good luck trying to hit one with the Reaction Command when it's got a sliver of health left; when they've got next to no health left, they are probably the fastest enemy in the game.

** [[Kingdom Hearts coded|Re: coded]] has Gold Tricholomas, a [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|gold variant]] of the other mushroom Heartless that only appears in System Sectors. They love to teleport away from you when you're trying to attack, can spew a poison cloud that can [[Standard Status Effects|blind you]] on top of doing damage, and they'll flee the battle if you can't kill them quickly enough, but they drop tons of SP, which you can redeem for goodies like stat upgrades and equipment.

* ''[[Super Mario RPG]]'' had Shy Guys in camo called Shy Rangers appear in one area of the game. Unless you have enough speed from armor and accessories, they'll escape before you can even act, and will still escape the moment their turn comes up (Unless they're poisoned, which makes them fight to the death for some reason). They don't even drop anything or give enough EXP to make it worth going through the trouble-- unless you throw a Yoshi Cookie to make Yoshi consume them; then you get a KeroKeroCola, the most powerful healing item in the game.
