An overarching term representing the majority of bands in the following genres : Power Metal, Battle Metal, Folk Metal, Symphonic Metal
A few typical bands would include, Dragonforce, Firewind, Turisas, Nightwish, Blind Guardian, Kamelot, Within Temptation etc. etc.
You could include bands like Amon Amarth, however the growling vocals & lack of keyboards sets these types of bands slightly apart.
With Quest Metal bands you tend to be able to actually hear the vocals and lyrics clearly, some use a more operatic style, choirs etc.
Growling vocals are less prominent.
Quest Metal can be any type of metal with at least 3 of the following:

Songs generally including 3 or more of the following subjects:
Warriors, Mythical beings, Maidens which may or may not require saving, Fighting, Battles, Power, Glory, Seas, Mountains, Fire, Ice, Rain, Gates and or their Keepers
- Predominantly Clean Vocals

One of the most difficult enemies to kill in Dragon Quest, thanks to their high defense and immunity to magic. Only those who are lucky can kill them before they otherwise run away. Once they do die, they usually give a large number of experience points.
If you end up encountering a horde of metal slimes, you'll have a chance of killing one or two of them. I managed to land a critical hit on two of them. Additionally, I happened to kill a liquid metal slime on my first try.
