Best Valheim Seeds

Five worlds worth starting. Each one has been generated and measured, so the distances here are the real thing rather than someone’s estimate.

  1. 1. mnQ70364h2 best if you want to see everything

    The first six bosses and all three traders sit unusually close together. If you want one world that shows you the whole game without long expeditions, this is it.

    Eikthyr's altar is 207 m from spawn. Haldor is 1,801 m away.

    Open mnQ70364h2

  2. 2. sDUeGUS3mc best for playing with friends

    Bosses and traders share the starting island, so nobody has to peel off and sail somewhere else while the rest of the group waits. The trade-off is Haldor, who is the longest walk of the five.

    Eikthyr's altar is 206 m from spawn. Haldor is 2,440 m away.

    Open sDUeGUS3mc

  3. 3. HHcLC5acQt best for a fast solo run

    The most-shared seed in the game, and it earns it. Four bosses and Haldor are all on the starting continent, so nothing here needs a boat before you are ready for one.

    Eikthyr's altar is 492 m from spawn. Haldor is 1,769 m away.

    Open HHcLC5acQt

  4. 4. SuperSeed best if you came to build

    A gigantic starting landmass, with the first four bosses and every trader on it. Haldor is the shortest trader run of the five, so restocking does not cost you an evening.

    Eikthyr's altar is 295 m from spawn. Haldor is 1,554 m away.

    Open SuperSeed

  5. 5. MistyUpdat best for a boss-first run

    Bosses one through six are all on the main island, and the traders are a short raft trip. Pick this one if the fights are the point and shopping can wait.

    Eikthyr's altar is 371 m from spawn. Haldor is 2,270 m away.

    Open MistyUpdat
