Show Leech 1.0May 24, 2018 Spawn Command cheat summon Leech_Character_C Yes Data No Habitat Common Rare The Leech is one of the Creatures in ARK: Survival Evolved. Basic InfoDossierThis section is intended to be an exact copy of what the survivor Helena Walker, the author of the dossiers, has written. There may be some discrepancies between this text and the in-game creature. “ Species Haementeria laetus Time Holocene Diet Sanguinivore Temperament Aggressive WildIt is difficult to be angry with Haementeria laetus, despite its rather terrible nature. The creature has practically no intelligence, and just attaches to any nearby living flesh in an attempt to drain that creature's blood. Removing Haementeria requires precision bladework, or access to an open flame. Both of these can be nearly as dangerous to the host as to the leech itself. Once Haementeria attaches to a host, it drains blood at a rapid pace, and the host experiences hunger, loss of health, and lowered stamina. Some Haementeria are also carriers for a dangerous disease I've dubbed "Swamp Fever," which persists beyond the leech's own lifespan. Few creatures on the Island are transmitters for this disease, and it can ultimately be cured with a rare medicine. DomesticatedWhile Haementeria is not intelligent enough to be tamed, it is always useful to keep a few around for antidotes and fishing lures. When processed properly, Haementeria venom can be made into a powerful antivenom! „ BehaviorLeeches lurk in the water, waiting for tames or survivors to pass by whereupon they leap gleefully and attach themselves to their victim. Diseased Leech (Variant)The Diseased Leech is a variant of the Leech distinguished by its red and orange color scheme as well as its name in the HUD. It transmits Swamp Fever, which can be cured with Lesser Antidote. The carcass of the Diseased Leech can also be harvested for significantly more Leech Blood than its normal variant.Appearance
One of the most revolting creatures that inhabits the island is Haementeria laetus, a leech that grows as long as a man's arm. A blood parasite, the soft-bodied creature actively seeks out hosts in the swamps it calls home, propelling itself with fluttering fins and latching on with a mouth full of sharp rasping teeth. In the wild, leeches are the primary vector for a debilitating disease commonly known as swamp fever. Color Scheme and RegionsThe Leech always spawns with the same color scheme, but the Diseased Leech has different colors from the Leech. The Leech always spawns with the same color scheme and has no color regions. This means it is currently impossible to make alterations to the Leech's colors. Drops* The Diseased Leech drops significantly more Leech Blood than its normal variant. Base Stats and Growth

Why is the leech not coming off ark?Many people have tried to remove a leech, only to find that it stays on them even if they've danced through the fire.
