The golds are odd, as they are the only slime besides tarrs that a tarr can not eat.
Slime rancher tarr code#
Over time mutations from mixtures also would reduce the saber code available. This theory is quite abstract but over time the saber genetics may get scattered and pool in enough for a plort in an area. Now possible questions that may be in mind, sabers extinction. Tarr being more unstable in their final burst of life in order to repopulate are more vulnerable to this than other slimes. One question remains, why is water deadly? Well water is what is meant to be where the parts are dissolved and pooled, freshwater lacks the heavy concentration of slime that the slimesea has, and would be more readily available to dissolve it.

Hang on, scattered material of slimes pooling up? In a location where slimes are known to lose form then come back together? Doesn't this seem to make sense that a new slime would form and be able to move up to the surface? I think it does. The slime sea is known to have alot of slime content, and being an area that slimes usually lose their main form to transport themselves, they more than likely could and probably would pool back up into slimes from scattered material. But what happens here? The slimes are known by lore to seep through the ground to get to the surface, not hard to believe they wouldn't seep through the cracks back down. These are parts of the Tarr, parts of the merging of 3+ slime species as the genetic material of the consumed slimes merged with the host as it tried to duplicate. Tarr burst after some time or when water contacts them during the day, and both times burst into a raindbow of colours and sparkles that scatter all over the place. How terrified would you be that you would painfully die to continue your species? This explains the fear I would think. Ill ask you this in reference to the mantis species irl. The nutrients are then used to form a new tarr, this isn't hard to beleive but where does this tie into the slime reproduction cycle and why the weakness to water? And why do slimes fear it? This leaves them in an unstable state which eventually bursts, but what if that state was meant for the reproduction of the species? Being the only one able to self replicate it clearly has something to spread, the instant rotting of food could easily be the absorbtion of nutrients, and it trys to consume anything organic which would also contain nutrients. They are the formation of the genetic material from 3 slimes combining. Going back to what we defined earlier, tarr are the only self replicating slimes. We are left with the question, why do largos still get attracted to plorts? My theory is that that is how they reproduce. Now the Gordos by lore are a group of slimes, and not a reproduction method, so they can be ruled out here. Or why become a tarr if the largo is the pinochle of the life cycle? Wouldn't that behaviour have been flushed out to maybe only a couple rather than the whole of the population?īoth of those the theory that sparked this thought does not answer. First, why would a slime largo if that prevents forming gordos if gordos were the method of reproduction. This would seem to imply that slimes want to largo, either theirselves or their species, and that isn't hard to believe.īut in the theory that triggered this thought there were 2 major questions left unanswered with the two possible meanings they had, depending on which was meant between largo and Gordo. We know a slime finds admiration to largos, and some have evolved to ensure their largos are more likely to form. Hunters and honeys have evolutions regarding the attraction to plorts.

Slimes have an actual set of code to express admiration towards largos. Slimes are attracted to plorts, even largos Now that we have the basics out of the way, lets look at where this theory comes from.

Tarr die by bursting and shedding sprinkles everywhere. Tarr are the only slime shown to be able to replicate (not including Quantums qubits which are only possibilities of its own existence rather than a new one) Tarr only stay around for about 30 in game minutes to an hour. Tarr only occur when a largo eats a different plort. After reading many flaws in u/fandagojones theory for slime reproduction I decided to write up my own.įirst off we need to set our key factors here regarding tarr's behavior.
