Sold by Kifaan for 15 Voidlight Marl once the achievement A Trip Through the Stars is earned. Kifaan stands at the Umbral Base Camp of Val and of Naigtal, the two small worlds of the Showdown feature, which are reached through a portal in Voidstorm and are open in alternate weeks. The achievement is six others: Into the Stars, Prepared for a Showdown, A Hal'hadar Walks into a Swamp, Showdown Slugger: Naigtal, Climate Strange: Naigtal and Showdown Success: Naigtal.
Time there about 2 min a visit
Before you go
- The Showdown unlocked: Riftblade Maella on the upper level of the Bazaar in Silvermoon City (47.7, 51.1) gives A Secondary Strike or The Time to Strike, then Stalkers of the Stars, Veterans of the Great Dark and To the Voidstorm and Beyond!, which ends at the portal · about 0.75 h
- Both worlds visited: only one is open each week and they swap at the weekly reset, and two of the six achievements ask for quests on Val as well as on Naigtal · 8 days
- Into the Stars: the introduction quest lines of both worlds, three quests each, ending in A Swampy Welcome to Naigtal and A Frigid Welcome to Val · about 1 h
- Prepared for a Showdown: seven quests that open the travel aids of the two worlds. Bouncy Mushrooms, Aerospores, The Grappler, Exterior Manaforge Translocator and Preparing for Threats on Naigtal, The Road Not Taken Twice and Spatial Reasoning on Val · about 1.5 h
- A Hal'hadar Walks into a Swamp: three quest lines on Naigtal, Manaforge Reconnaissance, Pilfered Technology and A Cryptic Mystery, started with Commander Tala'saan and Archmage Y'mera (twelve quests by the wiki's list, and two optional ones) · about 1.5 h
- In the open on Naigtal: Showdown Slugger: Naigtal (6 of its 8 rares that count), Climate Strange: Naigtal (the bonus objective Subdue the Spore Storm 5 times) and Showdown Success: Naigtal (8 of its 11 world quests) · about 5 h
- 15 Voidlight Marl, the currency of Midnight's outdoor vendors
In all: about 9.8 h of play, spread over 8 days, starting from nothing.
Getting there

- Take the portal from Silvermoon to Voidstorm*
- Fly the rest of the way
- Take the portal from Orgrimmar to Silvermoon*
- Take the portal from Silvermoon to Voidstorm*

/way is for the TomTom addon. Travel times are estimates: flying at 55 yards a second in a straight
line and 30 seconds for a portal. A star marks a portal that needs a quest or other unlock done first.
Notes and sources
The Naigtal twin of the Voidmancer's Starcarver, from the same vendor; these notes mirror that mount's. Added in patch 12.0.7 (16 June 2026). The journal files the mount under achievements and gives the cost without its currency. It names Naigtal as the zone, but Kifaan stands on both worlds (wiki, Method), so it can be bought in a Val week as well.
The achievement (62874) is account-wide and made of six achievements, three of them on Naigtal (wiki). The wiki's Showdown page (edited 2026) gives Naigtal's three quest lines as released in the weeks of 16 June, 30 June and 14 July 2026, so the achievement has been within reach since mid-July. The page does not say which of the three named lines each group below is; the order is assumed from the titles:
- Data Decryption Disaster, Hal'hadon't You Dare!, Conductive Crystals
- Technological Transference, The Node Knows, Malfunctioning Nullframe
- Soul Lattice Revealed, Cryptside Rendezvous, Cages of the Soul, Mementos of the Dead, The Soul Architect and Cryptic Departure, with Vilaldoun Valediction and Stargrim Revelations optional
The rares the wiki lists for Showdown Slugger (Method says Naigtal has nine rares, of which eight count):
- Interminable Uarn
- Swalewing Matriarch
- Auredar
- Indomitable Mk XII
- Broxion
- Lomelith
- Warp Agent Xi'grivr
- Slaipaan
The world quests:
- Mush-Vroom!
- Scrubbing Troubles
- Sporadic Power Drain
- Skiff Joyride
- Crypt Culling
- Capsized Compost
- Mashing Mushroom Mana Machines
- Power Overload
- Marsh Mana Spores
- Forest Mana Spores
- Weaken Their Forces
Sources disagree on the price as they do for the Starcarver: the journal, Wowhead's tooltip and the wiki say 15 Voidlight Marl; a NextTier guide (as quoted in a search result) says 1,500 for each of the two mounts. Method's guide shows the currency only as an icon and calls the mount Netherforged Star-Mech in one place.
The place given is the portal, because the vendor's world changes weekly; the portal's and Kifaan's coordinates are Method's, the same as for the Starcarver (Kifaan is Wowhead NPC 266234). Each world is entered on a Normal or a Heroic tier, chosen at the portal; an Icy Veins guide, seen only as a search excerpt, says the achievement can be done on either.
Not established, as for the Starcarver:
- whether the Showdown introduction asks for the Void Assaults introduction or the Midnight campaign first
- whether a character starting now is offered all three Naigtal quest lines in a single week
- how long the storms, rares and world quests take on live servers (a hotfix of 26 June 2026 made rares more frequent)
- whether flying works on Naigtal
The item binds when picked up (wiki; Wowhead tooltip data).
Confidence in this entry: medium. Looked up in 2026.
