Mounts are among the most coveted collector's items in *Final Fantasy XIV*, and some are notably harder to acquire than others. The Falcon mount is a prime example, available only during special events. If you're eager to add this classic mount to your collection, here's a detailed guide on how to obtain the Falcon mount in *FFXIV*.

*Final Fantasy XIV* boasts hundreds of mounts that players can unlock and enjoy across Eorzea and beyond, up to the latest *Dawntrail* expansion. The Falcon mount stands out as one of the rarest, not just for its exclusivity but due to the unique way it's obtained.
Originally introduced during the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign, which celebrated the *Stormblood* expansion's release in Summer 2017, the Falcon mount was a reward for players who maintained a subscription for at least 90 days during the campaign. Once the campaign concluded, the mount became unavailable, much to the chagrin of latecomers to *FFXIV* who are passionate about collecting mounts.

Fortunately, there's now a new avenue to acquire this elusive mount. The recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event offers players a chance to earn various sought-after rewards, including exclusive earrings, mounts, minions, furnishings, and more.
Currently, the Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event features the **Falcon Ignition Key** as a prized reward. To participate, you must complete any of the event's qualifying duties, which even include GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul'dah. Additionally, you can tackle special challenges listed in the Mogpendium, such as weekly challenges and the one-time Ultimog challenge, to earn extra bonuses.
Upon completing these tasks, you'll be awarded Tomestones of Phantasmagoria, the event's special currency. You can exchange these at 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 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.
That wraps up our guide on how to get the Falcon mount in *Final Fantasy XIV*. For more tips and guides, including how to obtain Dawntrail's Rroneek mount, be sure to explore our other *FFXIV* content.
