Naigtal Collectibles
There are not a lot of collectibles you can get in Naigtal – One Battle Pet and a few Cosmetic transmogs.
Here’s a useful map for the items below.

Sleepy Mandrake Battle Pet
The
Sleepy Mandrake battle pet can be found fast asleep inside Sleeper’s Grotto, a cave on the ground level just Southwest of Manaforge: Arcvein. The mandrake will be fast asleep when first interacted.
| /way #2600 68.25 51.61 Sleepy Mandrake |

You can wake the little guy up by bringing him five redcap mushrooms, looted from several sources in Naigtal:
| Redcap Item | Coordinates | Description |
|---|---|---|
| /way #2600 89.34 35.95 Boost Location /way #2600 95.09 26.67 Airy Redcap | On top of the largest mushroom East of the Sporeforge. You’re supposed to reach it by using the bouncy mushrooms/aerospores in the area, but there are not enough of them to reach the pet. Right now, the best way to get to that mushroom is to get on top of the second-tallest mushroom near Sporeforge (Boost Location coordinate), use an item to launch yourself up in the air like | |
| /way #2600 27.91 49.96 Vilaldoun Crypt | Inside the Vilaldoun Crypt, on the Western portion of Naigtal. On the back of the left-most, deepest level of the crypt. | |
| /way #2600 33.40 59.70 Start of Path /way #2600 28.90 61.76 Highland Redcap | By a cliff overlooking the Holding Pens area. A small path to the redcap can be found on the back of the Holding Pens area. | |
| /way #2600 75.64 38.14 Marshy Redcap | In the back of the Marshwalk Refuge cave, located in the water just East of Manaforge: Arcvein. | |
| — | Has a chance to drop from Fungal mobs in Naigtal. Higher chance from Fungal rares such as Interminable Uarn and Swalewing Matriarch. |
Pointy Half-Shell Cosmetic
If you ever liked Bowser, this is your lucky day! The
Pointy Half-Shell can be found hidden under a carcass just to the left of the Vennorax Wreckage area.
| /way #2600 29.95 29.25 Pointy Half-Shell |

Soltian Wrangler’s Grip Fist Weapon Cosmetic
The
Soltian Wrangler’s Grip fist weapon can be looted from the top of big mushrooms scattered across Naigtal. It is looted from Squirming Mollusks, which can be found atop a lot of them. To reach the top of these mushrooms, you will need to get creative with zone resources – Bouncy Mushrooms, Aerospores, and the Grappler.
The Fist Weapon itself is a yellow recolor of the fungal fist weapons first seen in The Burning Crusade.

Ancient Crypt Reliquary Weapon Cosmetics
Players who explored Naigtal have learned that it used to be a Draenei settlement, with a crypt area, Vilaldoun. Inside these ruins in the Western portion of Naigtal, players can find Ancient Crypt Reliquary chests, which reward Draenei-themed weapon cosmetics.
These chests do not show up on your minimap, so keep your eyes peeled!
