hello it's ricardo and welcome back to valheim the viking survival game that has you running
around the countryside hitting things with sticks we're going to talk today about haldor the trader
you might not even know he exists but this video is going to deal with how to find haldor
nice and easily and if you're lucky without too much running around he's got lots of things to
sell you if you want to park with your gold coins your rubies and other valuable items
haldor the merchant resides in the black forest no other biome as far as i can see
that's where he resides you're gonna have to get out there and do some exploring now this might
not be very easy for you depending on where your starting location is
and i can't give you an exact location for your world as all the worlds are randomly generated
however there are a few tools on the internet that can help you out in regards to this
here you can see a segment of my map my start in biome is towards the south as you can see at the
bottom and i'm heading over north easterly that's where i've been tipped off where haldor may be
now if you're having trouble finding haldor the merchant the merchant trader on your map there
are tools out there to help you wd-40 bomber 7 has made a fantastic application at the valheim
dash map dot world and i'll put a link in the description here you can type in your seed
of your game select what you want to see show trader for example you can look at the spawn
point so that does clutter things up where the boss is gonna spawn where's their treasure
and what it'll do it'll go out it'll generate your world and it will find the certain points
for you this will give you several locations of where the trader could possibly be so let's have
a go i've put in my seed we'll type go it'll go off and render this may take a little bit of time
and you can see it's populated my world how does this stack up with my world in game exactly now
these bags of many here represent my trader and you can see scattered in black forests
all over the map now you can also use a console command as enable press f5 and say i'm a cheetah
and then say go to those coordinates or if you don't want to cheat all you have to do and my
biome of starting biome is down here is getting a boat and get over there so let's check that out
now depending on where your trader is spawned and where your location is at that current time
you may need a boat i do need a boat i'm on a completely different continent where my trader is
however the mapping between the application on the web and game is spot on i have to say i'm
going to be moving up to the top right hand side of the screen where how old are the traders going
to be once i make landfall in the boat it's going to be a quick run across the map and you can see
a little icon has appeared of a money bag now this money bag represents haldor the trader now there's
going to be like any black forest grey dwarfs trolls and whatnot running around but you'll know
when you find haldor the trader he's got a wagon protective runes all around him to keep him safe
and a big beast hal seen
he won't attack you he's tame haldor's beast of burden and there's haldor the dwarf the
merchant what can you buy here a yule hat bit of a santa claus hat there for you
how do you buy things well let's talk about many you're gonna need loads of many all that
many you've been picking up in crips left right and center all those rubies all those
amber pearls and blocks of amber this is where you offload them he will do an exchange deal for you
and in turn for giving him gold he will give you items of choice here you can find the
fishing rod you can also find fishing bait yanir flesh and like i mentioned a belt or circlet
that will leave you to have a torch and also a belt that will increase your strength
giving you up to 450 units of carrying capacity so your encumbrance goes from like 330 to 450
something like that these items i think are great and are fantastic items to help you go through the
game so finding haldor you may come across him by chance if you're lucky i wasn't so fortunate i had
to go and use the app on the internet to go and find him i don't think i would have found him in a
million years afterwards let's be fair i'm already at my third boss i've already defeated bone mass
and i haven't seen any signs of haldor whatsoever so now you can go fishing you can wear a santa
claus hat a yule hat and you could have a torch like circle it on your head you can also have
more encumbrance by having a belt of strength and you can have things like your new fresh
