Introduction

'The Slime Tube', as named by Jick, is the second Clan Dungeon, released after rollover for May 31, 2009. It's very squishy (and slimy), and exists in your basement.

Getting to The Slime Tube is very simple compared to Hobopolis. A clan member with appropriate permissions must pay 250 000 Meat to unlock it, and then anyone allowed to explore the clan dungeon can enter. There is no Sewer like entry zone as there is in Hobopolis. It is a relatively short dungeon, as it's under 1000 turns. The end boss is the Mother Slime.

It's possible to have this dungeon and Hobopolis open at the same time. Opening one does not close the other.

Basic Mechanics

Slime Damage

This dungeon uses a unique new element: Slime. Wearing Slime Resistance gear is the only thing that will save you. The Coated in Slime effect is the most important reason to have slime resistance, as the damage it deals is slime element.

Monster Level

Increased Monster Level is the thing to run in this dungeon, and lots of it. It speeds the dungeon up by letting you fight higher-tier slimes.

Stronger slime types drop fewer items (especially chamoix), and hit harder, but more importantly afflict you with fewer turns of Coated in Slime, which is very bad because Coated in Slime deals more damage the fewer turns of it that are active. However, they advance the zone faster than lower-tiered slimes.

Notes

• Coated in Slime can only be removed by using a chamois from The Bucket or by using A Relaxing Hot Tub. Soft green echo eyedrop antidotes will not remove the effect, nor will All-purpose cleaners. Pastamancers can summon a level 5 or greater Vermincelli to remove it, if they get initiative.
• If you have 100 Chamoix in the bucket, you can make a big bundle of chamoix with it. Using this item... Puts 100 Chamoix in your clan bucket.
• The slime monsters, despite having a unique element, don't have a unique Form of...Bird! drop.
• There is also no special Summon Mayfly Swarm effect here.
• How many turns of Coated in Slime you start with depends on how much +ML you are running.
• You can make slime-covered pieces of equipment here. See the Engulfed! adventure for more details.
• Due to the importance of +ML here, we'd like to direct you to the Maximizing Monster Level page.
