Mounts are among the most coveted collector's items in *Final Fantasy XIV*, with some being notably harder to acquire than others. One such elusive mount is the Falcon mount, which is only available during special events. If you're eager to add this classic mount to your collection, here's a comprehensive guide on how to get the Falcon mount in *FFXIV*.
What is the Falcon Mount in FFXIV?
*Final Fantasy XIV* boasts hundreds of unique mounts that players can unlock and utilize across their adventures in Eorzea and beyond, up to the latest *Dawntrail* expansion. The Falcon mount stands out as one of the rarest, not just because of its exclusivity but due to the specific method required to obtain it.
Originally introduced during the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign, which celebrated the launch of the *Stormblood* expansion in the summer of 2017, the Falcon mount was a special reward for players who maintained a subscription for at least 90 days during the campaign. Once the campaign concluded, the mount became unobtainable, leaving many newer players disappointed as they missed their chance to add this prestigious mount to their collection.
How to Get Falcon Mount in FFXIV
Fortunately, there's now a new avenue to acquire this sought-after mount. The recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event offers players the chance to earn various coveted rewards, from exclusive accessories to mounts, minions, and furnishings.
During the current Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event, you can obtain the **Falcon Ignition Key**, a valuable reward. To participate and earn rewards, you must complete the qualifying duties within the game, including GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul'dah.
Additionally, you can tackle special challenges listed in the Mogpendium, such as weekly challenges and the once-per-event Ultimog challenge, to earn extra bonuses.
Completing these activities will grant you varying amounts of Tomestones of Phantasmagoria, the event's unique currency. You can then exchange these Tomestones with the Initerant Moogle NPC, located in all three main cities, to claim your rewards. The Falcon mount requires **50 x Tomestones of Phantasmagoria** to unlock.
The Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event will run until the launch of Patch 7.2 on **March 25**. This window gives you a limited time to secure the Falcon mount before the next iteration of the event, so make sure not to miss out on this opportunity.
