A brown pudding:
| |
| Reference | monst.c#line1829 |
The brown pudding, P, is an amoeboid NetHack monster. Like its more powerful cousin, the black pudding, it will divide when hit by an iron weapon, and as such can be used for pudding farming.
Strategy
Brown puddings' attacks do no damage, so their only danger is in rotting your armor. This can be easily avoided by wearing metal armors, covering your body armor with a cloak, or simply removing organic armor.
Since they do no damage, farming them for resistances and sacrifice gifts is a viable tactic. Since they have such low hitpoints, you'll need to get yourself a low-damage iron weapon to divide them; A corroded -3 orcish dagger is a good choice. After you've gotten all three intrinsics from them, you may consider killing off the crop so that they don't get in your way. Brown puddings are mostly inferior for pudding farming, as a brown pudding is not guaranteed to drop a corpse unlike a black pudding, and therefore will not drop items as often.
