Crimson Desert: Hvordan reise raskt

Fast travel in Crimson Desert isn’t available from the very start. You can’t just teleport across Pywel immediately — the system is tied to exploration and progression. You need to discover points in the world before you can move quickly between them. For a detailed breakdown of the fast travel points, how they work, and which locations are worth unlocking early, check out our full Crimson Desert Fast Travel Guide, which explains Abyss Nexuses, Abyss Cressets, and the abilities required to activate some nodes.

How Fast Travel Works

Fast travel in Crimson Desert uses special points called Abyss Nexus and Abyss Cressets. These are scattered across the map, and once activated, you can teleport between them instantly.

To fast travel:

1. Open your map.
2. Select an unlocked fast travel point.
3. Confirm the teleport.

Keep in mind:

• You cannot fast travel while mounted.
• Some situations, like combat or certain quests, block teleporting.
• You must activate each point manually before using it.

Basically, the system makes sure you explore the world before skipping around.

How to Unlock Fast Travel Points

Fast travel points don’t unlock on their own — you have to find and activate them. Just explore the world and check out anything that looks unusual. Some points might need you to solve a small puzzle or use a special ability. Each node you unlock makes it easier and faster to get around Pywel.

1. Explore the World

Most fast travel points are discovered by simply exploring. Look for:

• Glowing platforms or energy zones
• Hidden areas off the main roads
• Structures that seem out of place

Interact with them, complete any small task or combat challenge, and they’ll become permanent teleport locations.

2. Complete Challenges

Some nodes are tied to puzzles, combat, or abilities. For example, you might need a special skill to repair or activate a node. You won’t be able to unlock everything right away — this keeps exploration meaningful.

3. Discover “Traces of the Abyss”

Certain world markers are scattered across regions. Finding them not only rewards exploration but also unlocks more fast travel points. You’ll need to climb, glide, or investigate hard-to-reach areas to spot them all.

Why Fast Travel Feels Limited Early On

At the start of the game, you’ll rely more on:

• Walking
• Mounts like horses
• Gliding or parkour tools

Fast travel points are fixed, so it takes time to build a network. That’s intentional — it encourages you to learn the map first.

Even later in the game, you’ll still combine teleporting with mounts and other movement tools to get around efficiently.

Other Ways to Move Quickly

The fastest way to get around Pywel, aside from fast travel, is using mounts. Horses and other creatures drastically reduce travel time, making exploration and completing quests much smoother. Exotic mounts can even give special movement advantages in certain areas. For a detailed breakdown of all the mounts available and how to acquire them, see our article How to Get Mounts in Crimson Desert, which also covers tips on choosing the right mount for different regions and situations.

Fast travel in Crimson Desert isn’t just a convenience — it’s part of the adventure. Early on, it feels limited, but as you explore and activate more Abyss Nexus points, moving around becomes smooth and efficient.

Key takeaway: explore everywhere, activate nodes, and combine teleportation with mounts and traversal tools for the fastest travel across Pywel.
