Fast travel points are worth unlocking whenever you find them in The Blood of Dawnwalker. As the main story sends you across different parts of the map, having multiple fast travel points already available makes moving between locations much easier.
Fast travel points are connected to shrines, and shrines provide more than transportation. They can also be used to upgrade skills, access storage, and trigger an autosave when you interact with them.
The map display can also affect how easy these locations are to find. If fast travel markers appear to disappear, changing the map setting from Dynamic to Full keeps the markers visible.

Unlock Fast Travel Points Whenever You Find Them
Fast travel points are worth picking up whenever you encounter them.
The main story eventually takes you across the map, so unlocking different fast travel points before you need them makes later travel smoother.
Why Fast Travel Points Matter
Story progression eventually requires traveling across different parts of the map.
Having fast travel points unlocked on both sides of the map gives you more locations to travel between as the story sends you to different areas.
Shrines Do More Than Provide Fast Travel
Shrines are more useful than simply functioning as fast travel points.
They also provide access to several other systems:
- Skill upgrades
- Storage
- Autosaves when interacting with the shrine
Upgrade Skills At Shrines
Shrines can be used to upgrade your skills.
This gives shrines an additional function beyond traveling between locations.
Access Storage At Shrines
Shrines also provide access to your storage.
You can use this storage access to move gear out of your carried inventory when visiting a shrine.
Shrines Trigger An Autosave
Interacting with a shrine also creates an autosave.
This happens when you interact with the shrine, giving shrines another function in addition to fast travel, skill upgrades, and storage access.
Shrine Outside Anka’s Hut
The shrine outside Anka’s Hut can become a useful location later in the game.
You can travel there, offload gear, and sell items to Anka.
Because of these functions, this is one shrine worth grabbing and repairing.
What Can You Do At The Anka’s Hut Shrine?
| Function | Available |
|---|---|
| Fast Travel | Yes |
| Offload Gear | Yes |
| Sell Items To Anka | Yes |
Why Do Map Icons Disappear?
Some map icons can disappear because the default map setting is Dynamic.
With Dynamic selected, certain markers can disappear depending on what you are doing.
This can make it appear as though some of your fast travel points are missing from the map even though they have already been unlocked.
Change The Map Setting From Dynamic To Full
If you want the map markers to remain visible, change the map setting from Dynamic to Full.
Dynamic is the default setting and can hide some markers depending on your current activity.
Switching to Full prevents this behavior from making your unlocked fast travel points appear to be missing.
Fast Travel And Shrine Functions Summary
| Feature | Function |
|---|---|
| Fast Travel Points | Allow travel between unlocked locations. |

| Anka’s Hut Shrine | Provides a location to travel to, offload gear, and sell items to Anka. |

Final Summary
Unlock fast travel points whenever you find them because the main story eventually requires traveling across the map.
Shrines also let you upgrade skills, access storage, and trigger an autosave when interacted with.
The shrine outside Anka’s Hut is particularly useful because you can travel there, offload gear, and sell items to Anka.
If map icons or fast travel markers appear to disappear, change the map setting from Dynamic to Full.
