Boar is a Forest Monsters creature in Valheim with 10 health. The numbers above are the ones the game never shows you: how fast it moves against your own speed, how much damage inside one window it takes to stagger it, whether smoke and fire do anything to it, and the spawn rule behind the biome — an interval, a chance and a cap per zone.

Boar FAQ
How do you kill Boar in Valheim?
No effect: Chop, Spirit, Pickaxe. Health is 10, so the right damage type matters more than raw weapon damage.
What does Boar drop in Valheim?
It drops Boar Meat (100%), Leather Scraps (100%), Boar Trophy (15%). Chances shown are for a plain kill; starred variants multiply both the amount and the chance on anything that scales.
Where does Boar spawn in Valheim?
In Meadows the game rolls for one every 150 seconds with a 50% chance, up to 4 alive in a zone at once. Valheim worlds are seed-generated, so there is no fixed location: the rule is what is fixed, not the place.
Can you outrun Boar in Valheim?
No. Boar runs at 8 against your 7, so it closes on you the whole way. Fighting it somewhere you have chosen beats running from it.
Can Boar be staggered?
Yes. Landing 50% of its maximum health inside one window staggers it, which is the opening a parry is for — parry damage counts towards that figure, so the two combine.
Where do starred Boar spawn?
More than 800 metres from the centre of the world. Inside that radius this rule only ever spawns the plain version, which is why a long-settled first base never sees starred ones.
