DRAGON QUEST X ONLINE EVENT[]
Walkthrough[]
This miniquest does not appear in the quest log.
- Talk to one of the slimes in the following areas to participate:
Slarin in Southern San d'Oria (K-9)
Sludge in Bastok Markets (E-10)
Ultra Slime in Windurst Woods (H-11) - Accept teleportation from the slime to be transported to one of the following NPCs:
Slabble in East Ronfaure (G-6)
Slime Tarou in South Gustaberg (J-7)
Sline in East Sarutabaruta (G-11) - Talk to the slime that you are teleported to and choose to get gooed up for a Level Restriction of 1.
- The level restriction will remove all buffs except for food buffs.
- Once you are level restricted, it would be a good idea to spend tabs at a nearby Field Manual on Protect and Regen field support to maximize uptime.
- You can now "capture" Slimes, She-Slimes, and Metal Slimes by defeating them.
- Each Slime type gives a set amount of Slime coins after being captured: Blue (normal) Slimes gives you 1 coin, She-Slimes 2 coins, and Metal Slimes 10 coins.
- If you are wearing a complete set of slime equipment (Shield, Headgear and Earring) you get a bonus coin for every slime captured. This means Blue slimes now grant 2, She-Slimes 3 and Metal Slimes 11. Therefore to maximize efficiency, grind out 30 slime coins then immediately spend them on a full set of blue slime equipment to drastically cut down your remaining grind.
- The Slimes occasionally flee, instantly ending the battle and granting no slime coin.
- Stone is the most effective attack against them (except for Metal Slimes; see below), and it is available to any job using /BLM in this event, assuming the spell has been learned.
- A melee strategy is perfectly viable as long as you have capped skill in your weapon of choice and save TP for She-Slimes to reduce the amount of time spent killing them. A full-damage Fast Blade can take between 60-90% of a She-Slime's health bar.
- Metal Slimes occasionally appear when Slimes or She-Slimes are captured. They instantly aggro the character and despawn if they kill him/her.
- They have very high evasion and defense. They receive only 1 damage per attack, but Critical Hits can deal up to 24 damage.
- They likewise have much higher accuracy and attack than their counterparts. A source of Regen is strongly recommended.
- They are immune to magic, including Dia. However, they have 4 HP and are captured with exactly 4 successful hits.
- They tend to flee the battle much more often than other slimes and there is no known way to prevent this. Good luck.
- When you're done capturing slimes, return to the slime who "gooed" you up, and choose to return to the starting slime in the city.
Spending your Coins[]
- Returning to a quest starter gives you the option to redeem your slime coins for equipment, Monstrosity spirits and fireworks/candy.
- 1 Slime Coin:
- 5 Slime Coins:
- 10 Slime Coins:
- 15 Slime Coins:
- 20 Slime Coins:
- 30 Slime Coins:
1Only available for purchase after a She-Slime has been captured.
2Only available for purchase after a Metal Slime has been captured.
3Only available for purchase after all nine pieces of slime equipment have been obtained.
- Once you have purchased the She-Slime equipment, you get another cutscene featuring Horro.
- Once you have purchased all nine pieces of slime equipment, you get a final cutscene featuring Horro and receive both a She-Slime Spirit and a Metal Slime Spirit.
- Be sure you have enough inventory space to receive the item.
- Once acquired, trade these items to Suibhne in the Feretory while in the standard Astoltian Slime (MON) form to unlock the relevant type of slime.
FINAL FANTASY XIV EVENT[]
Walkthrough[]
This miniquest does not appear in the quest log.
- Talk to the Moogle in one of the following areas to participate:
Southern San d'Oria (G-9)
Port Bastok (K-7)
Windurst Waters (F-9) - The Moogle can teleport you directly to its counterpart directly outside the city gate:
West Ronfaure (I-6)
North Gustaberg (L-8)
West Sarutabaruta (J-8) - Receive Moogle Magic, restricting your level to 1. Normal monsters will now ignore you.
- It is recommended to get Regen and Protect from the nearby Training Manual.
- You can now "capture" Spriggan Sifters, Spriggan Criers, and Spriggan Graverobbers by defeating them. Each will drop a stone shard of its respective color. Attempt to get at least 20 of a particular color before returning.
- Spriggans do not flee like Slimes do, and are somewhat weaker. They often resist Stone. Bronze Zaghnal is very effective due to its high damage.
- When you have collected enough stones, you can spin the wheel in town. After every spin, you have a (2.9%) chance of getting on a "hot streak," which will improve your chances of winning so long as you continue spinning the same wheel. Hot streaks last around 8-12 spins. Wearing a matching set of Spriggan Coat and Club will improve your chance of getting on a hot streak to (3.5%)
