The Slimeling is a Hardmode enemy and a slime variant that spawns in groups of two to three upon the death of a Corrupt Slime. Like its parent, it has a 1/4 (25%) chance of inflicting the Darkness debuff for 15 / 30 / 37.5 seconds.

Like most other slimes, the Slimeling will be passive towards any player with the Royal Gel(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) accessory equipped.

Notes

When Slimelings are spawned upon the death of a Corrupt Slime, they can find themselves in a slightly different position from where the Corrupt Slime was. This can make them spawn on the other side of a one-block thick ground, potentially passing through the roof of a house.

Trivia

The Slimeling, Spiked Slime, Baby Slime, Crystal Slime, Heavenly Slime, Golden Slime, and Bouncy Slime are the only slimes without their own banner.
They can be considered the Hardmode versions of Baby Slimes.

The Bestiary entry for the Slimeling: "The still-animate severed pieces of an injured Corrupt Slime, Slimelings can still put up a fight, and have strength in numbers."
