In short: Clear room before fighting, expect multiple targets after a large slime dies and collect slimeballs for sticky pistons and leads.
What is Slime?
A jumping hostile mob that splits into smaller slimes as larger slimes are defeated.
How it works
Slime spawning is tied to specific areas and conditions; sizes differ and smaller slimes can clutter a fight.
How to approach it
Clear room before fighting, expect multiple targets after a large slime dies and collect slimeballs for sticky pistons and leads.
Common mistake to avoid
Do not farm slime by applying a universal height rule without checking biome, chunk and edition conditions.
