Wood is a kind of material for items that appears in NetHack.
Wooden objects are subject to burning and rotting; for wooden weapons, they can be burnt by dropping them in lava or using them to strike a monster with a fire-based passive attack 2⁄3 of the time. Elven weapons and several pieces of elven armor are made of wood; these may be made of (or at least inspired by) D&D's ironwood.
Gelatinous cubes will engulf and eat any wooden items they come across; polymorphing into a gelatinous cube will also allow you to eat wooden items.
List of wooden items
The following items are made of wood:
- Elven items
- Elven daggers
- Sting, an artifact elven dagger
- Elven short swords
- Elven broadswords
- Orcrist, an artifact elven broadsword
- Elven bows
- Elven arrows
- Elven spears
- Elven shields
- Elven daggers
- Clubs
- Quarterstaves
- The Staff of Aesculapius, an artifact quarterstaff
- Orcish bows
- Bows and the artifact Longbow of Diana
- Yumi
- Crossbows
- Boomerangs
- Small shields
- Flutes and harps
- Chests and large boxes
- Wands with the randomized appearance of oak, balsa, ebony, maple, pine, or forked
- Rings with the "wooden" randomized appearance
Strategy
Polyself into a gelatinous cube allows you to eat wooden items, which in practice can be very occasionally useful for eating wooden jewelry to gain otherwise unobtainable intrinsics.
