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, 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.).

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.

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.

|---|---|---|---|
| Candle Wick (50) | 100 | Always | Resin Candle crafting material |
