* If you find yourself needing to eat in combat, [[beef jerky]] and [[pizza]] are best, since they take only one round to eat. [[Fruit]] can also be eaten quickly, but offers less nutrition.

*Avoid engaging them while near other enemies. You will be promptly slowed for the whole fight. That being said, running is quite difficult.
* Engaging more than one death cob in melee at a time is a bad idea. You will have to eat nearly every round to keep yourself from starving and be unable to do much else.

*Quaffing a potion of haste or speeding up otherwise will nullify the slow effect for the whole fight. You will not be able to move faster while fighting them though.
