The Pestilent Slime is a Hardmode slime that spawns in the Jungle after Golem has been defeated. It attacks by jumping towards the player like most slimes. When the player is near it or above it, it will shoot high velocity Plague Stingerplague stingers that explode into shortly-lingering plague eruptions that are similar to the ones from the Inferno Fork or its upgrades. In Expert Mode, it will shoot five 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 BestiaryBestiary 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."
