How do you defeat a Grey Ooze?

[Thanee]

Run, undress, drop your equipment in a safe spot, then head back and fight it hand-to-hand!

Endure/Resist Elements (Acid) wouldn't hurt either!

Thats exactly what you do

the best way to use uses is for pit fighting and weird traps, or bull rush people into them, they're more lethal when the characters have to stay and fight.

10ft. speed = back up, shoot, back up shoot by a 30ft speed character.

I know that has already been said but i'm just restating.

It seems according to the MM that items get a reflex save DC 19 And of course for those of us who braved 1e always had several weapons including at least one STONE club thingy which is the perfect thing to go smacking the ooze with. Of course you'll take some acid damage but that only hurts for a little while

If this is the moathouse ooze:

My orc fighter put his dissolving bastard sword down and started to huck rocks at it. Since it's a decrepit structure my DM said there were plenty of big rocks that would do 1d6. After a while, everybody got the idea and started tossing d2, d3 rocks to help out. That ooze was a sinch.

In general, the only hard thing about oozes is spotting them. If you can avoid falling on top of them (black pudding at the bottom of a pit trap, for instance), they are cinch.

Can anyone give me some insight on how to defeat a grey ooze?

Walk away from it.
