Lore: Drake
Let you who read me be aware of the Frost wyrms, one of the most ancient kins sprung from Ymir's body.
The most common form of the wyrm are the Drakes, the small males who care for the offspring. Most often they can be seen poised by rocky nests guarding the eggs. In contrast, the females are much larger and a rare sight to behold, but once angered they provide a vicious foe.
Drake is a Mountain Monsters creature in Valheim with 100 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.

Drake FAQ
How do you kill Drake in Valheim?
Weak to: Fire. Health is 100, so the right damage type matters more than raw weapon damage.
What does Drake drop in Valheim?
It drops Drake Trophy (10%), Freeze Gland (100%). Chances shown are for a plain kill; starred variants multiply both the amount and the chance on anything that scales.
Where does Drake spawn in Valheim?
In Mountain the game rolls for one every 120 seconds with a 25.6% chance, up to 2 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 Drake in Valheim?
Yes. Drake runs at 3 against your 7, so a straight sprint loses it as long as your stamina holds — which is the real limit, not its speed.
Can Drake be staggered?
No. Drake never staggers, however hard the hit lands, so there is no opening to make and nothing to set up. Trade on your own terms instead of waiting for a window that cannot come.
