Want to know how to defeat Seeker Soldiers in Valheim? Valheim has many interesting and formidable creatures, one of which is the aggressive insect-like Seeker Soldiers. You need to use a few tactics to kill these highly durable creatures because they don’t give up easily. Seeker Soldiers roaming the Mistlands are always in pairs and have the flying ability to catch you off-guard. To survive against these creatures, you need some tips and tactics.
We’ll guide you on how to defeat Seeker Soldiers in Valheim in the easiest and fastest way.
Get the Perfect Gear
To kill Seeker Soldiers in Valheim, you should first make sure you are equipped properly. You’ll need both a solid armor or shield to protect yourself from Seeker Soldiers’ attacks and a powerful weapon to deal decent damage. Seeker Soldiers have elemental vulnerability, so you can equip a gear accordingly when fighting them. Weapons like the Frostner, Frost Staff, Staff of Embers, and Mistwalker are great weapons for dealing with these creatures.
Know Their Weak Spot
Seeker Soldiers have a weak spot on their abdomen – their rear end. Therefore, try to get behind them and focus on their weak spots. It will not be easy for you to strike, as they will try to block with their legs. Seeker Soldiers are tanky creatures, so it will take you a while to kill them in Valheim. It may take a few tries, but they will eventually die.
It is also very important that you are well-positioned. Wait for the right time before you get too close to them. Seeker Soldiers will perform two basic attacks. If you parry these attacks, you can take them down with a few strikes. If you get too close, they can damage you. Circle around them and watch for their weak points to attack.

Join a Party
If you’re playing with a group of friends, your job will be twice as easy. While one of your Valheim party distracts the Seeker Soldier, others can attack its weak spot and kill it. The person parrying the attacks needs to move fast and not make mistakes because these creatures will not die with a single attack. You can easily kill the Seeker Soldier if your Valheim teammate stalls for a certain amount of time. However, you don’t need to be in a party to kill these creatures. If you follow these tactics correctly, you will see how easy it is.
Valheim is available for PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.
