Queen Slime is spawned by using a Gelatin Crystal in the Hallow (Surface or Underground doesnt matter)

The Gelatin Crystal can be found in the Underground Hallow among Crystal Shards growing on Pearlstone and Pink Ice blocks.

The Fight
In her first phase, Queen Slime jumps around in a similar fashion to King Slime, though much faster. She periodically summons Crystal Slimes, Heavenly Slimes, or Bouncy Slimes. Crystal Slimes will shoot several crystals upwards, Heavenly Slimes will fly towards the player and Bouncy Slimes will fire bouncing shots towards the player. After a few jumps, she does one of two things, chosen at random:

• Will stay in one place for a few seconds, before jumping very quickly towards the player and attempt to stomp them, dealing high damage.
• Will stay in one place for a few seconds, before firing 6 Regal Gel that bounce twice before breaking. Sometimes, she will perform this attack multiple times in a row.

Killing the smaller slimes should be a priority during this phase, as they can quickly overwhelm the player.


When at 50% health, Queen Slime will grow wings and begin to fly like a Slimer. Her AI also changes:

She will occasionally shoot Regal Gel in 10 directions.
She will occasionally attempt to fly above and drop down onto the player.

Arena
Fighting on a long skybridge can make avoiding the spawned slimes much easier. Queen Slime is fairly slow in her first stage, but her winged form can keep up with the mounts summoned by the Goat Skull and Blessed Apple. Be careful if you reverse directions as all previously summoned slimes will still be alive.

Alternatively, during the second stage, Queen Slime follows a fairly predictable pattern. The player can run back and forth on the skybridge, jumping over projectiles, and Queen Slime will remain at roughly the same height the entire time, making targeting easier.

Note:
*If you try and use a Gelatin Crystal outside the Hallow, nothing will happen and it will not be consumed.
*The crystal is consumed upon use, immediately summoning the boss.
