The Pestilent Slime is a Hardmode slime that spawns in the Jungle after Golem has been defeated. It jumps towards the player and while it is in contact with them, it releases high velocity plague stingers that explode into shortly lingering plague eruptions. In Expert Mode, it releases 5 plague stingers when the player is close to it.

Like most other slimes, the Pestilent Slime will be passive towards any player with the Royal Gel accessory equipped.

Trivia

• The Bestiary entry for the Pestilent Slime: "The virus hunts for any openings within one's body to reprogramme all to serve the enigmatic engineer. The gelatinous body of slimes are particularly easy to infest, yet with no neural system, slimes are unable to receive direct orders, processing them as vague suggestions at best."

• It can be considered a plagued version of the Spiked Jungle Slime.
