Leeches drop silica pearls but the wikis says they don’t

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!

You can only tame these creatures with a fish basket

It doesn’t say it but there’s leeches in genesis bog biome, if there wasn’t enough problems there

They say the leach is rare I found like 500 at the swamp

This is for anyone who doesn't know how to get a leech off on ark, all you got to do is light a campfire and stand on it, then it comes off. Really simple.

If you need chitin or silca pearls for yuty saddle then just grab spino and go to the swamp on the island and just spam attack while walking. Very effective, gets me more spino saddles

If they stick to your tames, you can just grab them in mobile. It makes them disappear. They also spawn under the waterfall in the writhered swamps.

If it’s on you and you have not a lot of health idk what to do

But if you have a lot of health then create a fire and jump on it and BURN THE LEECH.

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

Leeches DO give a slight amount of silica pearls, good to know when u need a yuty or spino saddle

Why can you tame this🤔🤔🤔

Just a why

Not an abberation exclusive, and it's swamp fever is definitely available on genesis

Make a fire then jump on it if it attacks you

They SUCK……..haha

12445677 I just need more words

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 MOBILE PLAYERS ONLY:

These can be found in swamp dungeons, one will spawn in the water at fountains at a high level, and you will be guaranteed to find them for every fountain that exists in that dungeon. If one latches onto you they can be removed by stepping into a poison gas vent, same thing applies to diseased leeches too as they also have a chance to spawn there.

FOR MOBILE PLAYERS ONLY:

can be killed by therizno.

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

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
