Mounts are among the most coveted collectibles in *Final Fantasy XIV*, and some, like the Falcon mount, are particularly challenging to acquire. This elusive mount is only available during special events, making it a prized possession for many players. If you're eager to add the Falcon mount to your collection, here’s a comprehensive guide on how to obtain it in *FFXIV*.
Up to the latest *Dawntrail* expansion, *FFXIV* boasts hundreds of mounts for players to unlock and explore Eorzea and beyond. The Falcon mount stands out as one of the rarest, not because of its rarity among players, but due to the unique method required to obtain it.
Originally introduced during the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign to celebrate the *Stormblood* expansion's release in Summer 2017, the Falcon mount was a reward for players who maintained a 90-day subscription during the campaign period. Once the campaign concluded, the mount became unavailable, leaving many latecomers to *FFXIV* disappointed in their quest to complete their mount collections.
Fortunately, there's now an alternative way to acquire this coveted mount. The recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event offers players a chance to earn various rewards, including the **Falcon Ignition Key**. This key is a highlight of the current Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event.
To participate, you need to complete any of the qualifying in-game duties, including GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul’dah. Additionally, the Mogpendium provides special challenges such as weekly challenges and the one-time Ultimog challenge, which offer bonus rewards.
By completing these tasks, you'll earn Tomestones of Phantasmagoria, the event-specific currency. You can then exchange these tomestones with the Itinerant Moogle NPC, located in all three main cities, for your desired rewards. The Falcon mount requires **50 x Tomestones of Phantasmagoria**.
The Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event is scheduled to end with the release of Patch 7.2 on **March 25**. Make sure to seize this limited window to secure the Falcon mount before the next Moogle Treasure Trove event.
