How do I kill a leech? leech battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
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
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.
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
can be killed by therizno.
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.
They say the leach is rare I found like 500 at the swamp
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 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
Make a fire then jump on it if it attacks you
Not an abberation exclusive, and it's swamp fever is definitely available on genesis
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
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
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
To get a leech of you you have to, create a fire than jump on it. It might kill you because if you don’t have a lot of health jumping on fire is not really a good idea because it does damage so does the leach that is literally eating you alive. Hope this tip helps!

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.
This is one scary boi that will suck you dry
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
Won’t latch onto karkinos, if you’re on the ps go up to ur other tames go into the menu and the remove leech option will pop up, if you’re alone hop onto a fire a few quick seconds even at low health you’ll survive. If you’re with a mate they can remove them off of you. And you them.
