=== Defending against slimes ===

So either by you not feeding the slime enough, the slime being a dick, or [[Guide_to_xenobiology#Tier_3|reas]][[Guide_to_xenobiology#So_You.27re_a_Traitor|ons]], a slime has tried to kill you. If the slime is a baby, this is annoying. If the slime is an adult, you may die if you don't know what you're doing.

Slimes have two attacks: A glomp that does brute damage with adults dealing more and a chance to stun, and the far more dangerous 'feeding' attack which empowers the slime and, depending on your bio protection, leaves you covered in a dangerous residue that will quickly eat away at you until you're ready to enter critical condition. If a slime starts feeding on you, wrestle it off with {{Disarm}} and spray it down with an extinguisher (You DID get an extinguisher, right?) when you get it off until it dies. After that, quickly rush to a shower and wash yourself down for a good 10 seconds before hobbling off to medbay for healing.

While this is generally more a tip for you when NOT playing Xenobiologist, in the event of a very rare slime outbreak, perhaps of sentient slimes, get an extinguisher and hide. A horde of angry slimes can multiply fast, and while slimes are normally unintelligent and docile, outbreaks of them are nearly always done on purpose by someone wanting to destroy the station, and are thus paired with usage of [[#Red_Slime|red]] extracts enraging slimes and/or [[#Light Pink Slime|light pink]] or [[#Black Slime|black]] extracts making very deadly intelligent slimes. Pray that the AI is able to stop them, and that the xenobiologist who released the slimes doesn't follow up with [[Guide_to_xenobiology#So_You.27re_a_Traitor|something worse]].
