Valheim houses a large map with monsters spawning almost everywhere. Thus, travelling from one place to another is a tiresome process. This is where portals come into action to help you save time.
Portals are Valheim’s reply to fast travel points. They allow players to teleport across a sprawling map by cutting down on unnecessary trips. Portals are unlocked for crafting when you advance further in the game. They should be built near your bases.
1. How to Build Portals in Valheim?
To build a portal in Valheim, players will have to collect the following items:
- 20x Greydwarf Eyes: Players will have to kill Greydwarves found in the Black Forest and collect their eyes when they’re dead.
- 2x Surtling Cores: This item can be found at Burial Chambers in the Black Forest. Brace yourself to fight skeletons and ghosts if you are to acquire Surtling Cores.
- Fine Wood: Cut down the Birch Trees using your bronze axe to acquire Fine Wood. They can be found in the Meadow biome. They have a white-colored bark, so you should be able to identify them.
2. How Does Teleport Using Portals Work in Valheim?
After gathering the required resources:
- Build a portal at a particular location and give it a tag.
- Go to another place you’d want to fast travel to and make the second portal.
- Give the second portal the same tag as the first one.
By doing so, both the portals will link, allowing you to teleport.
The Portal Tags help players identify the gateway and connect to locations to one another. No matter how near or far, you can teleport anywhere using portals.
It must be noted that only two portals in Valheim can be connected at the same time.
While allotting a tag word to your portals, remember to be careful regarding character positioning and capitalization. Say you name your first portal ‘War’ and the second one “war” then, in this scenario, the portals won’t link.
3. Limitations of Portals in Valheim
Portals cannot be built everywhere. You cannot make a portal on places like Burial Chambers, Troll Caves, and secured locations. The game also does not permit you to teleport several items. They are:
- Tin ore and Tin
- Copper ore and Copper
- Bronze
- Iron ore and Iron
- Silver ore and Silver
- Black metal scrap
