Encountering Tips
How do I kill a leech? leech battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Fire DOES still work on mobile (i literally just tried it when a leech was stuck on my chest)
i read that fire didn’t work and read that it sometimes does but i thought let me just try and it WORKED!
just make sure u have some fire pit built next to u on the swamp next time so u won’t waste time collecting wood and stone for one when while ur HP is dropping (specially mine was so low already cuz a sacro gave me a toothy kiss on the butt when i was busy collecting rare flower)
I'm used to them just like getting on my body and just going into fire, but anyways I went out to look for something to tame in the swamp and I actually saw one like in the water and not on anything ( I was on my imprinted Baryonyx ) and I just turned into a cat and started hissing at. it like actually hissing and I just decided "that's it I'm going back" but the way it was moving in the water it was just terrifying and disgusting
For those of you who think leeches aren’t in mobile you can find them in swamps I have seen three they are in the water you can see them going thru the ground if you get one stuck to you just build a campfire and stand on it!
It doesn’t say it but there’s leeches in genesis bog biome, if there wasn’t enough problems there
These guys are on mobile, one time I was killing stuff with my Spino in the swamp and it said "your Spino lvl 291 killed Leech lvl 30." Didn't actually see the sucker (literally) tho
If you find one and it gives a sickness DONT SOREAD IT make a lesser antidote just kill it get the blood get rare flowers and mushrooms if you spread it your a real douche. And you’ll get targeted on PVP
They say the leach is rare I found like 500 at the swamp
Not an abberation exclusive, and it's swamp fever is definitely available on genesis
Leeches make a very unique sound when swimming.
Once you learn to hear it, you can find leeches by stopping and listening for their approach
KILL IT!!!!!!!WITH FIRE SERIOUSLY IT NEEDS TO DIE!!!!!!!
Hello gguys if a leech attach to your dinos you can remove it without using fire and if you look to the icon on the top left like the icon hand tap it and the leech is of you dinos mounts or flyer so if u find this a useful tip to take off the leech and is less dangerous
These things are the worst. They’ll attack you very sneakily, and I hate having to take time off of my task just to build a campfire to get the stupid thing off. Even though it just takes a little bit of time to get the thing off, it’s still extremely annoying. Luckily I haven’t encountered a diseased leech yet, so there’s that.
I ensure my raft has a campfire and fuel. Just be sure to watch your screen, I sometimes don't notice they got me until way too late!
This is one scary boi that will suck you dry
If you have a leech attached to you and you never came in contact with a leech. One of your tamed Dino’s probably has a leech on them.
Bro i hate These Things my Tip is when you see one just dont come to close
you can never see them coming... Until its too late..
To remove this bugger on Xbox since an “e” button fails to exist. Hold y. And above access inventory it’ll say hold to remove leech. Literally just watched 20 videos about the e button but nothing about Xbox or console buttons b were mentioned
I was hunting sarcos and found a baryonyx I wanted to tame. Then I found this guy and he chased me halfway from the swamp to my base. I took care of him with my shotgun though.
Fire still works to get rid of them just tested it
