Valheim's Traveling Merchants: Locations and Inventory

Valheim's challenging world offers respite in the form of three unique merchants, each stocked with valuable goods to aid your survival. Finding them, however, can be tricky due to the game's procedurally generated landscapes. This guide details their locations and complete inventories.

Quick Navigation:

Haldor: Black Forest Merchant

Haldor, often the easiest to locate, spawns within a 1500m radius of your world's center. He resides in the Black Forest, an area accessible relatively early in the game. He's frequently found near The Elder's spawn point (often near glowing ruins in Burial Chambers). For a more efficient search, utilize the Valheim World Generator (created by wd40bomber7) to pinpoint his exact coordinates using your world seed. Once found, build a portal for easy access. Trade with him using gold, readily obtained by exploring dungeons and selling gems (Rubies, Amber Pearls, Silver Necklaces, etc.).

Haldor's Inventory

Item Cost (Coins) Availability Use
Yule Hat 100 Always Cosmetic (helmet slot)
Dverger Circlet 620 Always Provides light
Megingjord 950 Always +150 Inventory Weight
Fishing Rod 350 Always Fishing
Fishing Bait (20) 10 Always Fishing Rod consumable
Barrel Hoops (3) 100 Always Barrel crafting material
Ymir Flesh 120 Post-Elder Crafting material
Thunder Stone 50 Post-Elder Obliterator crafting material
Egg 1500 Post-Yagluth Obtaining chickens and hens

Hildir: Meadows Merchant

Hildir resides in the Meadows biome but is harder to find than Haldor, typically spawning further from the world's center (3000-5100m radius). The Valheim World Generator is highly recommended. Alternatively, search Meadows within the specified radius; spawn points are roughly 1000m apart. A T-Shirt icon appears on the map when you're within 300-400m. Build a portal after discovering her location.

Hildir offers clothing with stamina reduction buffs and unique quests. Completing these quests (retrieving chests from Smouldering Tombs, Howling Caverns, and Sealed Towers) unlocks additional inventory.

Hildir's Inventory

Item Cost (Coins) Availability Use
Simple Dress Natural 250 Always -20% Stamina Use
Simple Tunic Natural 250 Always -20% Stamina Use
Simple Cap Red 150 Always -15% Stamina Use

Sparkler 150 Always Decorative
Iron Pit 75 Always Firepit Iron crafting material
Barber Kit 600 Always Barber Station crafting material
... (Many more items unlocked through quests) ... Post-Quest Completion Various buffs and crafting materials

The Bog Witch: Swamp Merchant

The Bog Witch, located in the treacherous Swamp biome (3000-8000m from the world center), is the most challenging to find. Again, the Valheim World Generator is highly recommended. Her Cauldron icon appears on the map when nearby. Once found, establish a portal. She offers unique items for cooking and mead crafting.

The Bog Witch's Inventory

Item Cost (Coins) Availability Use
Candle Wick (50) 100 Always Resin Candle crafting material
Love Potion (5) 110 Always Increases Troll spawns and aggression
Fresh Seaweed (5) 75 Always Draught of Vananidir crafting material
Cured Squirrel Hamstring (5) 80 Always Tonic of Ratatosk crafting material
... (Many more items unlocked through boss progression) ... Post-Boss Completion Various crafting materials and consumables

This comprehensive guide will significantly improve your ability to locate and utilize Valheim's valuable merchant resources. Remember to always prepare for the dangers of each biome before embarking on your search!
