Stardew Valley Expanded (SVE) is an incredible mod that adds a wealth of new content to the beloved farming game, including new locations, NPCs, crops, and gameplay mechanics. One of the most useful features introduced in SVE is the ability to teleport between locations. In this article, we’ll delve into the ins and outs of teleporting in Stardew Valley Expanded and provide helpful tips to help you navigate your farm and the surrounding areas more efficiently.
Introduction to Teleportation
In Stardew Valley Expanded, teleportation is primarily achieved through the use of Warp Totems. These magical items instantly transport you to specific locations, saving you valuable time and energy as you navigate the world. Whether you’re looking to reach the far corners of your farm or quickly get to the town center, Warp Totems are indispensable tools for any serious farmer.
Obtaining Warp Totems
Warp Totems can be obtained in several ways:
- Finding them: Occasionally, you may come across Warp Totems while exploring the world or as rewards from treasure chests.
- Purchasing them: Some vendors sell Warp Totems. For instance, Mr. Qi’s shop in Qi’s Walnut Room offers a selection of them in exchange for Qi Gems.
- Crafting them: The most reliable way to obtain Warp Totems is by crafting them. As you progress in the game, you’ll unlock recipes for various Warp Totems, which can then be crafted using the appropriate materials.

Using Warp Totems
Using Warp Totems is simple:
- Open your inventory and select the desired Warp Totem.
- Right-click (or press the use button) to activate the Warp Totem.
- You’ll be instantly teleported to the corresponding location.
Keep in mind that Warp Totems are single-use items, meaning that they are consumed upon activation. Make sure to have a steady supply of materials to craft more when needed.
Additional Teleportation Methods
In addition to Warp Totems, there are a few other methods of teleportation in Stardew Valley Expanded:
- Minecart System: Unlocked by completing the “Boiler Room” bundle in the Community Center or Joja Warehouse (depending on your chosen route), the Minecart System provides quick access between the Bus Stop, the Mines, and the Quarry.
- Return Scepter: This powerful tool can be purchased from Mr. Qi’s shop for 2 million gold. When used, it teleports you back to your farm’s front door, making it incredibly useful for those long days of exploration.
- Obelisks: These permanent structures can be built on your farm and provide instant teleportation to specific locations. There are four types of Obelisks, each corresponding to a different location: Earth (mountains), Water (beach), Desert, and Island. Each Obelisk can be purchased from the Wizard’s Tower after achieving 4-heart friendship with the Wizard and requires various resources and gold to build.
- Mini-Obelisk: A crafted fast-travel item that can be kept anywhere within your farm in Stardew Valley. To teleport from one location to another, you need two of them to be used as a pair. You can get this fast travel option by completing the Wizard’s special order quest.
- Witch Hut: You can see this inside the Witch’s Swamp in the Stardew Valley game. It is unlocked when you have completed the Dark Talisman Quest. There are different shrines inside the Witch Hut – the Magic Ink belonging to the Wizard and a red teleport run are among the shrines. When you return the Magic Ink, five Magic Buildings will be unlocked for the farm. You will be teleported to the basement room of the Wizard’s Tower when you step in the rune. When you gain four hearts of friendship with this Wizard, you can use the teleport rune in the Wizard’s Tower and Witch’s Hut anytime to fast travel between the two destinations.
