Valheim Merchant locations: where to find Haldor the Trader
The Merchant can be very hard for some players to find inValheim. Much like the second Forsaken boss,The Elder, Haldor can only be found inside the Black Forest biome. There are several different places where Haldor can spawn in eachValheim map, just like thebossesand their Mystical Altars.
When you’re a certain distance away from Haldor the Trader on the map, then a money bag icon will appear in the fog of war, lending you a hand in pinpointing him. This means that often you only need to step a ways into a new Black Forest biome to find out whether Haldor resides there.
Some seeds will spawn Haldor very close to your spawn point, while others will have no Merchant locations for miles and miles. If you want to avoid the frustration of being unable to find him, then your best bet is to check out our list of thebest Valheim seeds, because several of them show Haldor’s exact location fairly close to spawn.
Whatever the case, I’d strongly suggest you place down a Portal next to Haldor once you find him, and link it to a Portal back home so you can quickly travel to him whenever you like. While he appears to be a travelling merchant, he’ll actually never move the places where you find him.
You can sell items to Haldor the Merchant at any time after you’ve found him. Any item marked “valuable” can be sold in exchange for coins, which you can then use to purchase unique items from the Trader.
To sell items to Haldor, just interact with him, and repeatedly click the coin icon that juts out on the right-hand side of Haldor’s trading window.
Each time you click the coin icon, you’ll sell a different item. It works very much like therepair buttonin theWorkbenchwindow. You’ll have to make sure you have the items you want to sell in your inventory before meeting with Haldor.
