This guide helps you locate and utilize the merchants in Valheim, enhancing your gameplay experience. Valheim's challenging biomes are made easier with the merchants' helpful items. Finding them, however, can be tricky due to the game's procedural generation. This guide details each merchant's location and inventory.
Finding Haldor (Black Forest Merchant)
Haldor, located in the Black Forest, is relatively easy to find due to his proximity to the world center (within a 1500m radius). He's often near The Elder's spawn point, identifiable by glowing ruins in Burial Chambers. For a quicker search, utilize the Valheim World Generator (created by wd40bomber7) to pinpoint his exact location on your world seed. Once found, build a portal for easy access. Gold, acquired from exploring dungeons and selling gems, is needed for trading.

Finding Hildir (Meadows Merchant)
Hildir resides in the Meadows, but her spawn is further from the world center (3000-5100m radius), making her harder to locate. The Valheim World Generator is recommended. Alternatively, search Meadows within the specified radius (spawn points are ~1000m apart). A T-shirt icon appears on the map when nearby. Build a portal after finding her. Hildir offers clothing with stamina reduction buffs and quests for lost items, leading to new dungeons and unique shop items.
