One thing I've noticed about Hildr is that she seems to spawn on a small bit of Meadows that is also close and connected to Plains. The Mistlands seemed to really push the Plains in toward the center of the map, so it seems to be easier to find the meadows mixing with the Plains closer to Spawn.
I appreciate these well researched guides. Took me 3 hours to find my first Bog B. from the 4 worlds I've played on. It should take me less time now to find the other three Bog B's in the other worlds. Thanks! 🧙♀
My current playthrough has Haldor just across a small swamp from Elder, so he popped up as I first entered that small swamp. When I went to go land near Bonemass, I ended up finding Hildir. Then as I approached her, the Bog Witch popped up very near to both, between them. So I set up a little portal camp right by Hildir giving me fast access to them. I was pretty pleased with how quickly I found all 3 merchants on this run. The search for Moder made up for it. I found 6 tiny mountains, only 2 of which were large enough to spawn even a *single* egg or cabin. Then the first large mountain I found (thanks to one of Hildir's requests spawning there - wish I'd realized I needed to check her mini cartography table sooner) also did not have Moder.
We recently spent a couple of hours venturing through the swamps to find the witch but no luck yet. At this stage the biggest challenge is to find swamps that we haven't explored yet in that area but it's good to know that sailing past them should be enough.
The boat is probably going to be quicker. I reset the Bog B. on my world so any swamps I already searched would spawn her the next time I arrived if it was one of her spawn places. Otherwise we're penalized for hitting her swamps before the release. There's a y2 video for it ua-cam.com/video/zRRwsYU7OEY/v-deo.html
@@Bullminator Yeah, we have explored quite a lot already. We already had this problem with frost caves to an extent. I think we will find her at some stage but it will definitely take more time
Hildr loves to spawn just a bit next to plains for some reason. Not that its a bad thing as those are best places for main base as it covers most of food items you need in game. One trick to find haldor early in game is using troll armor set + 1.st boss buff and just run araund the coast of black forest as its much faster than sailing. Bog witch seems to like spawning in area where is not that many iron dungeons. Generaly near surfling spawns.
Great visualization of data. I'd split the world into 3 segments, not 4 though. Also worth mentioning that discover radius for traders is about 160-225m, not 300m. Why a range? Because world is generated in square blocks rather than circles. For comparison, territory discover radius is 32m, which means swaths of discovered area is 64m wide. Still it's the first good visualization of traders spawn I see here on UA-cam.
In my first playthrough, I didn’t find Haldor until I was ready to fight Yagluth, cuz both of their locations were close to the Ashlands. When the full Ashlands update came out, it messed up all the terrain in that area, making Haldor temporarily inaccessible. I still haven’t gone back to fix it, lol.
I want to do a no map playthrough, but finding the traders sounds really rough without a map. I might use mods so that you can see the map in a cartographers table, just so i can know if i went close enough to cause one to generate
In every world I've seen (and that's dozens, maybe hundreds), Haldor has always had a location near the north/south center of the map on the far east. EDIT: I'm not sure if this has changed in recent updates.
I like the live playthroughs, but my favourite Embr content are the short guides and information videos... Thanks a lot as always.

The filmography is always top tier!
As an experienced player the spawn radii were actually insanely helpful. Great video as always!

the information, the editing, the chill music and cozy vibes, now this are some good videos!

A new Embr Video!! Yay!!

I guess you are playing on old world where you explored most of areas. It can be trick to find one.
if you end up unable to find her because your world is too explored, you can spawn in her camp with a dev command
@@Bullminator Yeah, we have explored quite a lot already. We already had this problem with frost caves to an extent. I think we will find her at some stage but it will definitely take more time
A bag icon for Haldor... Why did I think, for... Since i started playing, it was a Shell 😵💫
@@jazminduran1616 Now that you mention it, I could totally see it as a clam shell. He also sells fishing stuff.
Perfect timing just started a new world on my new macBook!
and great video as video as always!
Absolutely amazing video! This is incredibly useful!
I just beat bonemass and I didn't even know there were traders 😂
I relate big time

We love you Embr! you are the best!!
sweet! missing you during miniseason! have a good one
Embr with the perfect timing! Was just wondering how to find the witch
Always helpful, thank you embr
Ty Embr, appreciate this video 😊
Finally! A video of QUALITY!!
New video, it has been almost eternity!

Excellent video! Skål!
Thank you for the guide 🎉
would be nice if one day we'll get some way to get location tips when playing no-map.. veg visirs have helped a lot for the bosses
I think it's time to spend some gold coins!!
Thanks for the great guide!

Great guide thank you
great guide
Awesome, thank you!
Found the swamp trader in second swamp. Not to far from home. And a nice mntp on home land. Lucky boys.
I want to do a no map playthrough, but finding the traders sounds really rough without a map. I might use mods so that you can see the map in a cartographers table, just so i can know if i went close enough to cause one to generate
My cousin and me call it a pocket portal. We each carry our own just in case we need to head back home or we separate.
In every world I've seen (and that's dozens, maybe hundreds), Haldor has always had a location near the north/south center of the map on the far east.
EDIT: I'm not sure if this has changed in recent updates.
None of the traders spawn in mainland so I search throughly the first black forest biome I went with boat.That's how I find Haldor very easily.
Thanks
Swag upload!!
I'm waiting for counsel update to fix my "brockin" gamepad.
Cool, but I play without a map and without portals 😅
Found hildr.... Her brother is kind of a lost though
