Flutter Slime
- Location: Seaside area of Ember Valley and Starlight Strand
- Favorite Food: Moondew Nectar (Nectar)
Description: Another slime that debuts in Slime Rancher 2 its shape is based on a butterfly and its look is stunning and beautiful. It can be hard to keep a Flutter slime happy as their food is quite rare as it eats Moondew Nectar and love living in a sky net on its corral. When they eat, they release a cloud of scales that soothes nearby slimes, reducing their agitation.
Gold Slime
- Location: Can Be found Anywhere but they Spawn randomly
- Favorite Food: Gilded Ginger (Gilded Ginger)
Description: Like the Lucky Slime, it’s very rare to be found and can appear in any location. they eat pretty much anything put in front of them. Instead of Newbucks, you’ll be rewarded with a Gold Plort, which is the most valuable by far and cannot be fed to another slime.
Gordo Slime
- Location: Specifically Stationed around Rainbow Fields, Starlight Strand, and Ember Valley
- Favorite Food: Depends on Slime (Depends on Slime)
Description: Huge Gordo Slimes often sit still in one place, barricading the entrance to a passageway or an area that contains something valuable. The only way to get rid of them is to stuff them with so much food that they explode, but they are otherwise immobile and untouchable. A Gordo Slime’s diet is identical to that of the slime it is created of, however it does not produce plorts.
Honey Slime
- Location: Near the flowery fields of Starlight Strand
- Favorite Food: Mint Mango (Fruits)
Description: As sweet as its name is, they are very valuable for the Newbucks collection, as their plorts sell for relatively high values. As valuable as they are, they are rare to find along the Starlight Strand and love to eat fruits, especially Mint Mango. Farming with Honey Slimes is considered important if players are short on funds.
Hunter Slime
- Location: Near the Mountain areas of Starlight Strand
- Favorite Food: Roostro (Meat)
Description: A carnivore-type slime that is rare and valuable at the same time. They can appear invisible and their Largo variants always spawn feral. They can occasionally attempt to pounce at the player, indicated by wiggling before making a jump in her direction. The Slime will turn invisible during its wiggle, leaving only its eyes and mouth visible.
Largo Slime
- Location: Everywhere in Slime Rancher 2
- Favorite Food: Depends on Slime (Depends on Slime)
Description: Largo Slimes are larger slimes that have devoured a plort they do not generate, making them grow and take on traits of the producer of that plort. When fed, Largo Slimes will spawn not only its native plort, but also whatever kind of plort it consumed to transform into a Largo. Largo Slimes will have two of each plort if they are fed their preferred foods.
Plorts can be farmed most efficiently with these slimes as well since they require fewer corrals and have a wider variety of their preferred food to eat, making it easier to harvest a high yield.
Lucky Slime
- Location: Can Be found Anywhere but they Spawn randomly
- Favorite Food: No Preference (Meat)
Description: Very rare to be found and can appear in any location, the Lucky Slime resembles the lucky Chinese Cat. By feeding a Lucky Slime any meat item, you will be rewarded with some Newbucks, but they don’t stick around for long and despawn quickly.
Phosphor Slime
- Location: Open Fields during the night
- Favorite Food: CuBerry (Fruits)
Description: Another common slime to be found in Slime Rancher 2. However, this slime can only be found during the night and can not be spawned during the day. It is easily identified by its violet coloration, wings, and soft bright glow, and must be kept in a corral with the Solar Shield upgrade.
Pink Slime
- Location: Everywhere in Slime Rancher 2
- Favorite Food: No Preference (Anything)
Description: Among all the slimes found in Slime Rancher 2, this slime is the most common slime to be found in the game. They love to eat anything and this slime can be fused with other slimes to produce plorts and resources that players need to explore and upgrade their farm.
Puddle Slime
- Location: Seaside area of Ember Valley and Starlight Strand
- Favorite Food: No Preference (Water)
Description: Like the Flame Slimes. they are combatant-type slimes. It’s a great slime to have and they are needed to be housed in a pond if they are to survive, but they don’t need feeding as they live off the very water they float in. This slime cannot be turned into Largos as they don’t eat plorts, nor can their plorts be consumed.
Ringtail Slime
- Location: During the nighttime of Starlight Strand
- Favorite Food: No Preference (Anything)
Description: Warning, this slime is too adorable to catch. Nosebleeds will occur after a few interactions with it. This slime is similar to that of a raccoon and requires special care during the daytime as they turn into stone literally. Ringtail slimes will eat anything but when they are not hungry at all, they will not produce any plort at all.
Rock Slime
- Location: Anywhere in Ember Valley and Starlight Strand
- Favorite Food: Heart Beet (Vegetable)
Don’t let its looks fool you. This adorable slime is far more innocent and is only dangerous due to its playful nature and harsh forms. Though it’s a dangerous one, it is considered as one of the best slimes to use to gather plorts and resources. Plus, fusing it with other slimes will give players a level of expectation that no one ever expected.
Tabby Slime
- Location: Open fields of Rainbow Fields and Ember Valley
- Favorite Food: Stony Hen (Meat)
Description: This slime is adorable and at the same time, squishy for its features resemble that of a kitty. It has a cute persona that makes players including myself hug it so bad and never let it go. Tabby Slimes are also one of the most common slimes in Slime Rancher 2, along with the Rock Slime, both second only to the Pink Slime.
Tarr Slime
- Location: Everywhere in Slime Rancher 2
- Favorite Food: Player/Beatrix (Anything except other slimes)
Description: Tarr Slimes are hostile slimes that consumes another slime to produce more of its type. Tarr slimes, for example, are created when a largo consumes a third plort type that is not of its own type; these slimes then transform into a hostile variety that devours all other slimes in the area and may harm you if you come too close to one.
A simple method of eliminating Tarr slimes is to pick them up with the vac and hurl them into the water. If you prefer a less serious adventure, you can turn off Tarr Slimes in the game’s settings.
