Lore: Greydwarfs
Let all who read me beware of the Greydwarfs, the skulkers in darkness, the soulless ones. They are born from rot and rainfall, they spring like mushrooms from the smoking soil. There is nothing on their tongues or behind their eyes, those who fear nothing should still fear them.
When the soul of a murderer or a great sinner rots under the ground, it makes a hollow cyst which draws rock and wood and moss to it. It gathers up the peat into flesh, braids reeds into bone and takes rags for skin.
It should not walk but when the night comes it walks. Should you who read this see one with a sword to your hand, lance it and let it out. Or put it to the torch, for it fears the flame.
Greydwarf Brute is a Forest Monsters creature in Valheim with 150 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.

Greydwarf Brute FAQ
How do you kill Greydwarf Brute in Valheim?
Weak to: Fire. Health is 150, so the right damage type matters more than raw weapon damage.
What does Greydwarf Brute drop in Valheim?
It drops Greydwarf Eye (50%), Stone (100%), Wood (100%), Dandelion (100%), Ancient Seed (33%), Greydwarf Brute Trophy (10%). Chances shown are for a plain kill; starred variants multiply both the amount and the chance on anything that scales.
Where does Greydwarf Brute spawn in Valheim?
In Black Forest the game rolls for one every 120 seconds with a 50.6% chance, up to 1 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 Greydwarf Brute in Valheim?
Yes. Greydwarf Brute 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 Greydwarf Brute 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 Greydwarf Brute spawn?
More than 2,000 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.
