Guys according to the ark wiki leeches don’t latch onto swamp-native tames such as

Sarco

Kapro

I think paracer

Probably Titanboa

And I don’t know anything else it wont latch onto

THEY LATCH ON TO PARACERS. WATCH OUT

Fill your enemies base with leeches 😂😂😂😂😂😂 then listen to the screams I’ve done it

It will be the highlight of you life but unclaim them first when there on aggressive so they can’t trace it back to you LOL

They have a chance to give you swamy sickness if bit. Take a large land Dino like an Allo or Rex and just bite spam water to gather leech blood.

The leech page is getting bigger 😃😀😃😀😄😀😄😀😄😀😄😀

I found a bunch of leeches in the swamp cave and got a bunch of things like leech blood.

When collecting leech blood I find it easiest to use a rex and walk through the swamp chomping everything from trees to water soon enough you will start killing leaches and harvesting them , found this out when tring to clear a path through the swamp on a meat run

Did you know you can tame these boogers with fish baskets they have no use but if you want go get one!

Up if u have kild a Leech when u r under lvl 37.

79.337 54.9 6.5 33.79.337 312.65 6.5

If a leach is on one of your TAMES it will appear on your screen as though it's on you.

Walk up to your tame and hit Triangle(PS4 obvs) and it'll get rid.

Just so you know, you can only tame it with a fish basket, so if you filter for the island (or other non abberation maps) and tameables, it will still show probably because of transferring but yeah

Leeches' melee attacks will ignore any armor that you have, so if you are holding up a shield you will still be damaged through it.

You can have a max of 4 leeches latched onto you, if another leech tries to latch onto you then it will just do melee attacks until you die. Having 4 leeches on your body will also make your health drain at 2 hp per second.

Pretty unknown fact: Diseased leeches will spawn with higher health than a normal leech, and move faster than a normal leech. Also yes they do drop way more leech blood than a normal leech.

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)

You can’t tame them on Mobile I really wanted to tame one but I couldn’t and I was on mobile

WHY does it say it gives nothing when harvested so devs can know

I tamed one and named it Clingy Clive... my sister got one and named it Grabby Geraldine. I almost got another and called it Dontcallmeoneofyourterriblenames.

If there is hole, there is a goal

These are annoying as f. To kill these stupid things just stand in a fire for a second if u don’t the leech will suck your blood until u die
