</>What does Portal Pardon (Always Teleportable) do?
Valheim's portals have one rule: no metals allowed. You can carry seventeen swords and a full set of armor, but one copper bar? Banned. Portal Pardon removes that restriction entirely. Walk through any portal carrying anything you want — ore, ingots, dragon eggs, that stack of iron you spent forty minutes mining in a swamp. No more building boat highways between your base and every biome. No more dying in the mountains with thirty silver and rage-sailing back to retrieve it. Your portals now work the way they should have from the start.

</>Common questions about Portal Pardon (Always Teleportable)
What does Portal Pardon do in Valheim?
Portal Pardon is a ProjectMods mod for Valheim that removes the metal-blocking restriction from every portal. Vanilla portals refuse to let your Viking through while carrying any ore (copper, tin, iron, silver, black metal), any ingot or bar, dragon eggs, and a handful of other tagged items, forcing you to build boat highways or run cargo overland. With Portal Pardon enabled, that flag is ignored — walk through any portal with whatever you're carrying and arrive at the paired portal with everything intact. Other portal mechanics stay vanilla: you still need a built and named portal pair, the destination still has to share a name, and your Viking still teleports between the two anchored stones. Only the metal block is gone.
Which items does Portal Pardon actually unlock for portal travel?
Portal Pardon unblocks every item Valheim normally tags as portal-restricted. The headline ones are raw ore and metal bars across all tiers — copper, tin, bronze, iron, silver, black metal, and any future metal tiers added to the game. It also covers Trophy items like dragon eggs that the base game blocks from teleporting, and any biome-specific resource flagged the same way (certain Mistlands and Ashlands materials, depending on patch). Everything else in your inventory — weapons, armor, food, building pieces, regular crafting components — already passed through portals fine in vanilla, so Portal Pardon doesn't change their behavior. The mod's effect is narrowly scoped: lift the metal/restricted-item flag, leave every other portal mechanic untouched.
Does Portal Pardon affect existing portals or only new ones I build?
Portal Pardon affects every portal in your Valheim world the moment it's enabled — both the ones you've already built and any new ones you place while the mod is on. There's no rebuild step, no reconfiguration, no per-portal toggle. Your Viking walks up to any portal carrying iron, and that portal accepts the iron through. Toggle the mod off and the vanilla restriction snaps back instantly on every portal in the world; your Viking will once again be told to drop the metal before stepping through. This makes Portal Pardon safe to use on long-running saves — the mod is purely behavioral, doesn't modify portal data, and leaves no permanent imprint on the world when removed.
Does Portal Pardon work in dedicated server games or only solo worlds?
Portal Pardon's behavior depends on where the portal logic runs in your specific Valheim setup. On solo private worlds and worlds you host locally for friends, the mod takes effect immediately and metal travel works for everyone connecting through your session. On true dedicated servers (a separate server process), the portal restriction is enforced server-side, so the mod needs to be active on whichever side enforces the rule for a given session — your server's policy controls the outcome. The cleanest answer: solo and local-host Valheim, Portal Pardon just works; dedicated servers, check your server's modding rules first. Either way, your save data isn't damaged by toggling the mod on or off.
Why would I use Portal Pardon instead of just sailing the metal back?
Sailing iron back from a Sunken Crypt in the Swamp is one of Valheim's most iconic experiences and also one of its most punishing time sinks. A single iron run from a far-flung Swamp can eat 30-60 real-life minutes of round-trip sailing, watching for serpents, and praying the wind cooperates. Portal Pardon collapses that whole loop into one step through the nearest portal. It's especially valuable for returning players resuming a stalled run, casual Vikings playing in short sessions, and content creators who want to focus their video on the dungeon raid rather than the sail home. Pair it with Fast Travel + in the ProjectMods launcher and you can choose between portal travel and pin-to-pin teleport depending on the trip.
