The Netherplace is an easy-to-miss shop in Where Winds Meet that matters a lot once crafting and upgrading start chewing through rare materials. If you’ve ever pinned an item like Fat-Tail Sheepskin and the trail seems to point vaguely at a “ghost” area, this is the place the game is trying to lead you to.
What The Netherplace is
The Netherplace is a store in the Ghostlight Market. The vendor is an NPC named Steady Eyes, and the shop’s main value is simple: it sells a small set of upgrade materials in predictable, bulk-friendly quantities.
How to reach The Netherplace (Ghostlight Market route)
Step 1: Travel to the Ghostlight market teleport stone. This is the cleanest way to enter the Ghostlight Market area without having to navigate in from the surface.
Step 2: Put on a ghost mask. The Netherplace is tied to Ghostlight Market’s “masked” rules, and the shop interaction expects you to be wearing one.
Step 3: Walk forward along the main path until you’re approaching the large, face-like mask gate. The Netherplace is before that gate, not beyond it.
Step 4: Before reaching the big face mask gate, look to your left for a two-story house. That building is The Netherplace.
Step 5: Interact with Steady Eyes to open the store menu. If you’re hunting a specific material (like Fat-Tail Sheepskin), this is where the bulk stock comes from.
Landmarks that help you confirm you’re in the right spot
The most common navigation mistake is walking past the shop without noticing it. A practical check is the nearby Antique Bookstore: if you’ve reached it, you’ve gone too far and need to turn back downhill toward the mask gate area until you see the two-story house on the left.
What The Netherplace sells
The inventory is small and focused on materials:
- Dragon Bones
- Cholerite Schist
- Fat-Tail Sheepskin
- Weaselt Pelt
Purchase limits and cost
Each item can be purchased in quantities up to 99 per week. Pricing is roughly 300 coins per item, which makes the shop useful when you want to convert currency into hard-to-farm materials without relying on drops.
Why the shop trips players up
Two quirks tend to cause confusion. First, the in-game marker can feel like it’s pointing at a broad “ghost” zone rather than a specific storefront. Second, access can depend on being in the right play mode; players report that you may need to be in Solo-Mode for the Netherplace to show up and function as expected.
If you’re already hitting crafting bottlenecks, treat The Netherplace like a weekly errand: grab your 99-per-item allotment, then get back to whatever you were doing before the Ghostlight Market swallowed your evening.
