King Slime
While considered a mini-boss due to its relatively low threat level, the King Slime shouldn't be underestimated, especially by lower-level players. Note that soul points cannot be obtained from this boss.
King Slime Location
The King Slime spawns after 100 Slimes are killed on the server. It appears near the city closest to the last slain slime's location. A notice on the Quest Board announces the King Slime quest, which involves locating and defeating the boss. This quest has a 30-minute global server cooldown.
King Slime Fighting Strategy
The King Slime has 400 HP (600 HP if Corrupted), the lowest of any boss in Arcane Lineage. Its primary attack involves summoning more Slimes, which can overwhelm players. It also uses AOE poison attacks, so potions and cleansing abilities are recommended. Its low health makes the battle relatively straightforward; focus on eliminating the summoned Slimes before attacking the King Slime directly. Its AOE attacks only inflict poison, not direct damage.
| Attacks | Energy Cost | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| **Slime Creation** | 1 | Summons a Slime to fight for King Slime. |
| **Crush** | 0 | King Slime lunges forward, attacking a party member. |
| **Poison Eruption** | 2 | King Slime throws out a burst of Acid, poisoning your party. This attack cannot be dodged or blocked. |
| **Scalding Spray** | 3 | King Slime erupts with boiling hot liquid, poisoning your party. This attack cannot be dodged. |

Metrom’s Vessel Fighting Strategy
Metrom’s Vessel has 10,000 HP (15,000 HP if Corrupted). This fight is a long battle of attrition. It has two phases with different mechanics. The first phase involves destroying its wings to reduce damage negation. Destroying all wings before phase two makes the fight harder. It also summons Shadeblades (200 HP each).
