Cultist is a Mountain Monsters creature in Valheim with 200 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.

Cultist FAQ
How do you kill Cultist in Valheim?
Weak to: Poison. Health is 200, so the right damage type matters more than raw weapon damage.
What does Cultist drop in Valheim?
It drops Red Jute (100%), Cultist Trophy (10%). Chances shown are for a plain kill; starred variants multiply both the amount and the chance on anything that scales.
Where does Cultist spawn in Valheim?
It appears in Not placed by the spawn system. Valheim worlds are seed-generated, so there is no fixed location. The biome and its spawn conditions are what is fixed.
Can you outrun Cultist in Valheim?
Yes. Cultist runs at 5 against your 7, so a straight sprint loses it as long as your stamina holds — which is the real limit, not its speed.
Can Cultist 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.
