Metal Babble (Japanese: はぐれメタル, Stray Metal) is a Monster in Template:GameTitle.

Metal Babbles are a variant of the Slime but made of metal and in a liquid state. They attack by electrifying their body before bashing Torneko.

Monster Ability

Metal Babbles have several special abilities:

• They behave identically to monsters afflicted with the Terrified status condition, always fleeing Torneko on sight.

• They have double Movement Speed and Attack Speed.

• Their Defense Power, though very high, is completely ignored when calculating Damage dealt to them. Instead Torneko will always deal 1 damage to them.

• They will always randomly warp somewhere in the dungeon when hit by Torneko.

Effect when Sealed

When Sealed, Metal Babbles stop fleeing Torneko and no longer teleport when hit. They keep their double movement speed and attack speed, and still only take 1 damage at a time when attacked.

Combat Strategy

Metal Babbles give a high amount of experience and always drop a Joy Seed when they are defeated. However, they are hard to land a hit on, as they run away from Torneko with Double Speed, warp away when damaged, and have lots of defense, despite having less HP than a Slime. In addition, they have a low spawn rate. If the player finds one by luck, the best way to get them is by cornering them in a dead end, or in a room and attempting to land a hit when the chance comes, for example with an Arrow. Do it before Torneko is sent to the next floor because of the Earthquake. If Torneko is in possession of a Cloning Staff, it can be used to multiply the Metal Babbles to get a large number of levels.
