ValheimBossTrader

ValheimBossTrader

Unlock 964 items at Haldor based on your boss progression.

Every item sold by the trader is gated behind the boss of its corresponding biome. Kill a boss, unlock the next biome's resources — materials, food, weapons, armor, ammo, consumables, and more. Prices and quantities are sourced directly from TraderOverhaul and fully configurable.

Server-side Usage

This mod must be installed on the server for boss-gating to work correctly in multiplayer, since global keys are stored server-side. Clients do not need to install it (the items will appear for all players when they open the shop).

---

Bank System

When you open Haldor's shop, a COFFRE D'HALDOR panel appears on the right side of the screen.

• Deposit — Transfer coins from your inventory to the bank
• Withdraw — Transfer coins from the bank to your inventory
• Withdraw All — Empty the bank in one click
• Bank balance is saved per character in BepInEx/config/BossTrader_Bank/<CharacterName>.dat
• When buying from Haldor, if your inventory lacks funds, the bank is tapped automatically to cover the difference

---

Category Filter

A CATÉGORIES panel appears to the right of the merchant list.

• Click a category to show only matching items
• Click the active category again (or Tout) to clear the filter
• The filter resets when you close the shop
