Metal King Slime Location

Primary Habitats

La Bravoure Region (Present)

Outside La Bravoure Region

The La Bravoure Region (Present) opens up after starting the Darkness in the Desert story arc and completing the Alltrades Abbey storyline.

This area is home to Metal King Slimes, which are stronger than regular Metal Slimes, making it ideal for high-reward farming.

Hubble Region (Present)

Once you’ve collected enough Grey tablet fragments and unlocked the second Grey Tablet, the Hubble Region (Present) becomes accessible.

The Metal King Slimes here are larger and more challenging than their normal counterparts in other regions, so make sure your party is well-prepared before attempting to farm them.

How to Farm Metal King Slime

Encounter in Battles

Metal Slime Encounter

Metal Slimes, in general, do not spawn on the overworld on their own. Instead, they will spawn as additional enemies during battle. You will have to keep battling monsters in the area in order to find the Metal King Slime.

Battle System Explained

Use Ruff's Whistle

Ruff's Whistle can force encounters without needing to run into enemies in the overworld. This is a much quicker method for farming, especially if your party is overlevelled and your Field Strikes instantly defeat enemies before the battle even starts.

Are There Random Encounters?

Use Multi-Hit or AoE Attacks

Use Sizz

Multi-hit and area-of-effect attacks offer a more consistent way to damage Metal Slimes. Metal Slimes are notoriously very elusive, and can be hard to hit . They also tend to run away if you take too long to defeat them.

Using AoEs gives you a greater chance of landing a strike. You can also use skills that can hit enemies multiple times in one turn, dealing massive damage before they have the chance to escape.

List of All Skills

Try to Land Critical Hits

Normal Attack

Landing a critical hit makes it more likely to defeat Metal King Slime. There are a lot of Vocation Skills that can increase the odds of a critical hit such as Knuckle Sandwich and Fatal Flash.

You can also equip the Hammerhood Heart on a party member, which boosts the wearer’s critical hit rate by 10%.
