Big Slimes have an attack behavior that's similar to the smaller slimes. When killed they have a 75% chance to split into 2-4 smaller slimes that also attack the player. Those small slimes give XP as the regular slimes above do.

Big Slimes may appear on slime-infested floors of [[the Mines]] in the color for that section of the Mines. They are most common in the [[Skull Cavern]], where they can be found on any floor as Big Purple Sludges.

Big Purple Sludges have a chance to drop additional items during certain of [[Mr. Qi]]'s Special Orders. When they hold such a drop, they appear semi-transparent so that the drop may be seen within beforehand. They must be killed to get the drop.  During the [[Quests#Qi's Hungry Challenge|"Qi's Hungry Challenge"]] Special Order, they may drop a heart that heals 10 HP.

Big Slimes can also be found when [[The Mines]] or the [[Skull Cavern]] are in a [[The Mines#Shrine of Challenge|dangerous]] state. They should then be considered dangerous slimes, relatively stronger by 2x health and attack, as with small slimes.
