Leech is a Undead creature in Valheim with 60 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.

Leech FAQ
How do you kill Leech in Valheim?
No effect: Chop, Fire, Spirit, Pickaxe. Health is 60, so the right damage type matters more than raw weapon damage.
What does Leech drop in Valheim?
It drops Leech Trophy (10%), Bloodbag (100%). Chances shown are for a plain kill; starred variants multiply both the amount and the chance on anything that scales.
Where does Leech spawn in Valheim?
In Swamp the game rolls for one every 200 seconds with a 50% chance, up to 10 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 Leech in Valheim?
Not in the water, which is where you meet it. Leech swims at 3 against your 2, so it closes on a swimmer the whole way and there is no version of that swim you win. Get back on a boat or onto land — on a boat you outrun it easily; in the water you do not.
Can Leech be staggered?
No. Leech 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.
