Mounts are a highly sought-after collectible in *Final Fantasy XIV*, and some are particularly challenging to acquire. One such coveted mount is the Falcon, which is available only during special events. If you're aiming to add this classic mount to your collection, here's a detailed guide on how to obtain the Falcon mount in *FFXIV*.
What is the Falcon Mount in FFXIV?
*Final Fantasy XIV*, up to its latest *Dawntrail* expansion, boasts hundreds of unique mounts that players can unlock and ride across the realms of Eorzea and beyond. Among these, the Falcon mount stands out as one of the rarest, not due to its scarcity among players, but because of the unique way to acquire it.
The Falcon mount was initially introduced through the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign, which celebrated the launch of the *Stormblood* expansion in the summer of 2017. Players who subscribed for a minimum of 90 days during the campaign period were rewarded with this exclusive mount. However, once the campaign concluded, the mount became unobtainable, leaving many latecomers to *FFXIV* disappointed as they missed out on this collectible.
How to Get the Falcon Mount in FFXIV
Fortunately, a new avenue has opened for acquiring this elusive mount through the recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event. This event offers players a chance to earn a variety of sought-after rewards, including exclusive earrings, mounts, minions, furnishings, and more.
Currently, the Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event features the **Falcon Ignition Key** as one of its prized rewards. To participate, players must complete any of the designated duties within the game. Even participating in GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul’dah contributes to event progress.
Additionally, the Mogpendium offers special challenges, including weekly challenges and the one-time Ultimog challenge per event, which can boost your rewards. Completing these tasks will earn you varying amounts of Tomestones of Phantasmagoria, the event-specific currency. You can then exchange these Tomestones with the Itinerant Moogle NPC, located in all three major cities, for your desired rewards. The Falcon mount requires **50 x Tomestones of Phantasmagoria**.
The Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event will run until the release of Patch 7.2, scheduled for **March 25**. This gives you a limited window to secure the Falcon mount before the next Moogle Treasure Trove event, so make sure to seize the opportunity.
