This is also great for corrals if you go away for long periods of time, because your slimes can feed themselves and thus won't try to escape. This is a great combination if you have free-range slimes but insist on using coops, because they can just ignore the glitch involving chicken coop walls. However, not everyone will find these combinations annoying, making it subjective.

Free-rangers suffer from a glitch where largos cannot jump over the coop wall despite clearly being able to jump high enough to go over it. This combination is hardly a problem if you make sure they are fed and are okay with raising chickens, as boom slimes explode much less when they are happy.įor people who cannot stand raising chickens, especially free-rangers, these combinations will be a pain. Also, there is the upside of being able to see cloaked rad hunters because of their aura.Īgain, this is an entirely subjective combination because while this can be an annoying combination, it's not nearly as annoying as a rock/tabby or a crystal/tabby. However, I put this here because some people find rad auras more annoying than others, and people who always carry water can subvert this problem by disabling the rad aura. It is generally a risky idea to combine tabbies and hunters with harmful slimes, because of their tendency to try to get closer to the rancher. However, if they are in the Grotto, then it doesn't really matter. There is no known way of truly containing a quantum slime, endangering them if they escape. Sometimes Bad Combinations Quantum/Phosphor Certainly doesn't help when you are trying to get the tier-3 money out of these slimes. The same as the above combination, this is also combining two slimes with obscure favorites. Also, combining hunter and crystal slimes is a bad idea because they both have obscure favorite foods. These combinations are even more dangerous than the above because they also create crystals which linger for a short while, requiring water to get rid of. And while I've never had this problem because I don't use corrals, the combination of rowdy behavior from tabbies/hunters and rolling from rock slimes makes collecting plorts hard without a plort collector. This is even more dangerous when they are hunter slimes, because they always cloak before booping, meaning that you can't see potential danger. Tabbies and hunters tend to try booping you, which hurts when they have rocks. Usually Bad Combinations Tabby/Rock, Hunter/Rock While combining these two doesn't avert the problem completely, it greatly reduces the risk.

While tangle slimes can feed themselves, they can also grab plorts, which is problematic if you have slimes nearby, especially honey slimes. If you have tangle slimes, your ranch is more prone to Tarr. This is especially good if they are kept outside the Grotto, where escape could endanger them. However, hunter/phosphor slimes cannot cloak their glow, making it easier to see escaped slimes. Hunter slimes can cloak themselves, making it hard to see an escaped slime. If you can feed these slimes an easier favorite food, that will let you avoid the hassle entirely. Chickens can be a hassle to raise and roostros are somewhat rare, odd onions are only 50% of their harvest, and phase lemons require a sacrifice fruit and need a rancher's assistance to use, meaning you can't use phase lemons to free-range. These three slimes have problematic favorite foods. (I tried it with boom/quantum slimes and discovered the glitch the hard way.) If you need a carnivorous slime, then combining them with an easier diet will take a lot of work off you. This can be an especially bad problem for people who free-range slimes, because then reproduction is even slower due to the fact that you can't use coops due to a glitch where slimes can't jump over the walls. Some people find raising chickens a hassle, because they are slow to reproduce and are more prone to shortages. Usually Good Combinations Carnivore/Vegetarian, Carnivore/Frugivore 1.2 Hunter/Any, Crystal/Any, Quantum/Any.1.1 Carnivore/Vegetarian, Carnivore/Frugivore.
