 ==History==
-*Prior to [[0.34]], Slime did not restrict the use of upstairs, making the branch safer and more consistent. In addition, new monsters: [[Creeping plasmomdium]]s, [[star jelly|star jellies]], and [[slymdra]]s, were added. Also, stairs did not provide OozeRegen, fewer items spawned in Slime:5, the layout often had blocked off chambers, and Jiyva's altar was only guaranteed in Slime:5.

 *In [[0.31]], new Slime:5 [[vaults|layouts]] were introduced. Many don't have the corridors of the original Slime:5 vault, making certain strategies against [[the Royal Jelly]] more difficult.
 *Prior to [[0.30]], the slime covered walls would inflict acid damage, rather than just corroding you.

 The branch is home to high level jelly monsters - these are fast and can inflict immense damage. [[Acid blob]]s and [[creeping plasmodium]]s rapidly corrode you. [[Azure jellies]] have strong cold attacks. [[Void ooze]]s penalize magic and can [[engulf]] you, and [[rockslime]]s can [[trample]] you. You'll also find [[shining eye]]s that induce numerous [[bad mutations]]. [[Slymdra]]s can gain multiple heads like regular [[hydra]]s. You'll also find masses of [[slime creature]]s, weak alone, but they come in large groups, and among the stronger jellies.
-The wide open floors and caustic walls make it impossible to effectively bottleneck opponents. Expect to be swarmed by all sorts of jellies, especially if you rush in too quickly. AOE attacks are valuable. For casters, MP efficient spells should be used, due to the lack of ipstairs to safely recover MP.

-Most jellies resist [[poison]], [[acid]], and nothing else - the major exceptions are [[rockslime]]s (who resist fire and electricity). Also, jellies have poor [[AC]] and [[EV]]. Note that [[Shatter]] doesn't do much against slimes (except for rockslimes).

 Stairs to the Slime Pits can be found between [[the Lair]]: 4-5. While the entrance is found in the Lair, it is much more dangerous than the 2 other branches that can be found there ([[Swamp]], [[Shoals]], [[Snake Pit]] or [[Spider's Nest]]), and should be attempted later in the game.

-Superficially, the layout of the Slime Pits resembles the [[Orcish Mines]]: each floor is either a single large irregular chamber or several smaller chambers connected only by [[stairs]]. Like the Orcish Mines, you can use a [[wand of digging]] to connect separate chambers together, easing travel. Outside of Slime:5, no items generate here.
