Another reason why Mistland suck
https://ibb.co/yXN644d
My moder is 90% engulfed by mistland. It is already far in the north. A mountain near spawn gave me this location (O.o).
Now, at this point
- I'm 2 bioms lower in gear
- Have no whisplight
- cannot see where the mountain begins
- Even if I sailed all around the island and found and tried the plains this is still 1 biome above my current gear but woul be be doable because I can at least see further than my hands can reach.
Basically no other biom blocks you like Mistlands do.

Clearly this is not a mistlands issue. If mistlands was completely different, it would still block you in the same way. Why aren't you making the same claim about plains? As you mention it's blocking you as well.
You got bad RNG on this one. That happens, but it sure looks like you used the map viewer to make your picture, so you must have seen there are other options available.
Also, if you're ready to fight Moder, you should be ready to enter the plains. Obviously it would be best to not have to land your ship in plains, but you should be able to cross plains.
Unlike swamp, plains is actually generally not that hard to land in either. You can clearly see your enemy from the ship, so you can find a place to land that should give you plenty of time for confrontation if necessary. Just be careful leaving your ship there, of course.
It is clearly a moder problem made 1000x worse by mistlands.
You can cross any other biome because you can see and avoid danger. Even the mountains can be crossed. It is not easy but it is doable. The mistlands are just a luck shot going in 100% blind against a labyrinth and against enemies.

I mean, that is tiny little strip of it. Not ideal, but you could just run through that in 10 seconds—it's not like Mistlands is jammed packed with enemies everywhere. Use your minimap and just run north through it.
If you arrive there you do not know how thick the strip is because of map fog.

Is that an old seed or new seed?
It is a new seed
With the map I found a moder that is not too far away in the other direction.

Sucks, but you'll need to find a new Moder, most worlds have 4 spawns minimum.

Not 100% on this but I think finding a boss location runestone doesn't give you the closest boss to that stone. Just one that was predetermined in worldgen.
My moder was miles away. was like 3 days sailing. At night I would dock at the nearest isle set up a portal and head home until morning.
Later I found another stone and another moder which was way closer than the first I was given.

It finds the one that is closest to the runestone.

There's usually multiple locations, but moder was always the worst (in the past it was possible to have no moder spawns), and the vesvigir points to the nearest - if this was near spawn then the next is even further out than this. Still, it's possible there's one near the worlds edge with black forest between coast and moder mountain. But you'll have to check a mountain on the other side of the world, otherwise vesvigir is just going to point to this.

Your kinda ♥♥♥♥♥♥, because you have to travel far enough away from that moder spawn then find another mountain closer to another moder spawn that when you touch the boss stone it points away from your bad spawn of moder.

Any other biome you can see to make a danger run. Not mistlands. Also mistlands gen is a mistlands issue, devs should have a look at how moder spawns in the mistlands era.

If the OP want's to do a "danger run", they I don't see why ML would even be an option, considering that there's a lower-level biome available for the same purpose.
I would also add that you should map your strategies to the conditions, not hope for conditions that match your strategies. If you don't have any cold resistance, mountains would be bad for a "danger run", so should we change mountains so that we can run through it when we're at black forest level?
As for how it generates. I agree, and call it the "Mistlands Ring" that makes it very difficult to get to places in the outer portions of the map. That said, again, that's not really an issue here, given the plains access.

That is bad luck but you should be able to find more than one moder in your world. Maybe you have more luck with another location.

There can be multiple locations of Forsaken, not always just the One. think of Valheim as a circle and Bosses spawn kinda in concentric circles from when Munin drops you. ive found 3 Elder Alters and 2 Bonemass locations
