What slimes/largos do you prefer taking care of, and what slimes/largos do you like the least?

The Best
The most behaved slimes I've had are Rad Slimes. I had 30 Rad Slimes when I was new in the game and they were so well behaved, I barely even see them jump around. I got rid of some and replaced them with 12 Rad Tangle slimes and they are still surprisingly well behaved IMO. I do see them shoot out their cute vine hands out of the ground every once in a while but they still very rarely jump around compared to any other slimes/largos.

The second most behaved slimes I've had are Honey Hunter largos. I never had plain Honey Slimes or plain Hunter Slimes around so I dunno if they are good but their largos are very nice for me. I have the taming bell but they seemed pretty well behaved even before I had it, they just seem to squish the guts out of their chicken squeak toy and they'd be happy, as long as they are well fed and have music. I don't often see them jump around.

Surprisingly, the third most behaved I have are Boom Rock largos. They are sleeping the majority of the times I visit their corrals, it doesn't make sense to me, I often expect them to be exploding plorts everywhere but they are more often asleep than not. But I still do see them explode plorts out of their corrals sometimes, but it's probably only because I have 12 largos per corral.


 * Runner-ups:
 * The 30 Phosphor Slimes I had seemed hard to manage when I was new since they flew out of my corrals that had no net yet, LOL. But they became very well behaved once I got nets and somehow produces the most amount of plorts compared to other slimes I've had, I always had an excess in phosphor plorts compared to other types. The Phosphor Slimes behaved the same after I converted them into 12 Pink Phosphor Slimes.


 * Puddle Slimes! They just splash around in the water and play with their rubber duckys, no need for anything else. Only problem is that I never seem to see them produce more than 15 plorts whenever I leave for a long time, they have a limit on plort production?

The Worst
Crystal Slimes are the worst behaved for me. I have Honey Crystal largos and they constantly keep on shooting crystal spikes out of the ground. It doesn't matter if they are well fed, listening to music and have 2 of their favorite squeak toys. I am not 100% certain but I believe their crystal spikes clog up the automatic plort collector, I always end up needing to press the collect button 2-3 times before it gets all the plorts.

The second most annoying for me is Fire Slimes. I had an incinerator in the lab and one in the docks, they keep on wandering off and wouldn't return to the ash trough for a long while on their own. At one point, I lost 1 Fire Slime from each of my two incinerators (I had 7 each) so I decided to relocate both incinerators to the retreat and place them side-by-side. It kind of made it worse, they somehow wander off more often, but at least they now have 2 ash troughs to go back to. I am wondering if they are actually harder to take care of than Crystal Slimes because they also consume food way faster than any other slime and collecting their plorts is a pain but I find their rebellious attitude cute. I just wish my little slime kiddies learn to follow the curfew.


 * Runner-ups:
 * When I had acquired Quantum Slimes for the first time, they terrified the hell out of me, I didn't know they would still cast phase projections out of the corrals even if they are well fed and calm. It looks like they could escape at any time. I got used to them in the long run though, had no escapes but the projections are still annoying, they have too much going on even when they're happy. They should nerf that, too much visual clutter in and out of the corral.


 * The most escapes I've had was from Pink Dervish largos. Aside from that, they don't look too problematic when I am looking at their corral. I recently made Dervish Hunters but I haven't regretted it yet, not sure if I would in the long run...
