Luminous Starseeker
Overview

Luminous Starseeker is a flying mount available for purchase in the World of Warcraft in-game shop and the Battle.net Shop. The mount was added in patch 7.2.5 of the Legion expansion in August 2017.
The Luminous Starseeker is a felsaber, a predator from the planet Argus that hunts by sensing the energy of living creatures. As it approaches a powerful energy source, the felsaber changes color and becomes more agitated. The mount model cycles through three color schemes: black-blue with purple accents, magenta-orange with yellow accents, and blue-neon with purple accents. The color changes every 15–20 seconds.
Why You Want This Mount
- Unique color shifting. The Luminous Starseeker is one of the few mounts in the game that automatically changes color while in use. Three color schemes alternate every 15–20 seconds, creating a striking spectacle
- An Argus felsaber model. Felsabers are predators native to Argus, with a distinctive feline silhouette. This model stands apart from ordinary feline mounts with its elegant, otherworldly aesthetic
- Versatility. The mount works both on the ground and in the air. Its speed adapts to your riding skill
- Account-wide. Once purchased, the mount becomes available to every character on your account
- Instant acquisition. No farming, reputation, or random drops — you buy the mount and use it right away
How to Get the Luminous Starseeker
The Luminous Starseeker can only be obtained through the shop. There is no other way to get it — the mount does not drop from mobs, is not awarded for achievements, and is not available through in-game events.
Method 1 — In-Game Shop
- Open the in-game shop by clicking the "Shop" button in the game's main menu or using the corresponding icon on the micro menu bar
- Go to the "Mounts" section
- Find the
Luminous Starseeker in the list of available mounts - The price is $25 USD (or the equivalent in your currency). Payment is taken from your Battle.net balance or a linked bank card
- After purchase, the mount instantly appears in your mount collection
Method 2 — Battle.net Shop
- Go to the mount's page in the Battle.net Shop
- Log into your account and complete the purchase
- The mount will be automatically added to the collection of every character on the account
Method 3 — Buying with Gold (via a WoW Token)
If you don't want to spend real money, you can pay for the purchase with in-game gold:
- Buy a WoW Token at the auction house for gold
- Convert the token into Battle.net balance through the game interface
- Use the resulting balance to buy the mount in the in-game shop
The token's price fluctuates by region, so the final cost in gold may vary.
Bundle with the Twilight Pet
The Luminous Starseeker is also available in a bundle together with the Twilight battle pet for $30 USD. Twilight is a felsaber kitten that, like the mount, changes color. If you like both items, the bundle costs $5 less than buying them separately.
Mount Features
Color Shifting
The main feature of the Luminous Starseeker is its automatic color change. The mount cycles through three color schemes:
- Black-blue with purple accents — a dark base with a cool purple glow
- Magenta-orange with yellow accents — a warm palette with a bright glow
- Blue-neon with purple accents — a vivid blue base with a rich glow
The change happens smoothly every 15–20 seconds. You cannot choose or lock in a specific color — the shifting happens automatically.
Felsaber Lore
According to the mount journal description, felsabers are energetic apex predators of Argus that hunt by sensing the energy of living creatures. A felsaber approaching a powerful energy source noticeably changes color and becomes more agitated. The Luminous Starseeker can change its hue at will, feeding on the energy of the Void, the Fel, and other otherworldly forces.
Felsabers were introduced in the Legion expansion alongside the planet Argus — the homeworld of the draenei, conquered by the Burning Legion.
Model Uniqueness
The Luminous Starseeker is the only mount in the game to use the Argus felsaber model. Even though felsabers are widely present on Argus as wild creatures, no other felsaber mount is available to players. This makes the Luminous Starseeker a truly collectible piece.
Tips
1
Watch for discounts. Blizzard periodically holds sales in the Battle.net Shop, during which mounts are offered at up to 50% off. If you don't need the mount right now, wait for the next promotion
2
Gift to a friend. In the Battle.net Shop you can buy the mount as a gift for another player — a handy option for a surprise
3
The bundle is better value. If you're interested in both the mount and the Twilight pet, get the bundle for $30 instead of two separate purchases
4
The WoW Token as an alternative. If you have enough in-game gold, you can get the mount without spending real money — buy a WoW Token at the auction house and convert it into Battle.net balance
5
The /mountspecial command. Don't forget to try out the mount's special animation — use the /mountspecial command while mounted on the felsaber
6
The mount is available immediately. Unlike many mounts in WoW, the Luminous Starseeker requires no farming or meeting any conditions. The purchase takes a couple of minutes, and you can immediately use the mount on any character level 10 or higher
