😎 Dangerous Blue Slime

The Dangerous Blue Slime is a stronger variation of the normal Blue Slime in Stardew Valley. These slimes appear in the Dangerous Mines after activating Mr. Qi’s challenge “Danger in the Deep”, and can also spawn in the Skull Cavern during Qi’s Special Orders “Skull Cavern Invasion” or “Qi’s Hungry Challenge”. They are larger, wear sunglasses, and are significantly more powerful than their regular counterparts.

Dangerous Blue Slimes have 2× the health and attack power of normal Blue Slimes, making them a mid-game threat in the icy caves. When encountered in Stacked Slime formations, they can launch slimes as projectiles, which bypass the protection of the Slime Charmer Ring.
