Up to the latest *Dawntrail* expansion, *FFXIV* boasts an extensive array of mounts for players to unlock and enjoy during their adventures in Eorzea and beyond. The Falcon mount, though not rare in terms of ownership, is highly coveted due to its limited availability.
Originally introduced during the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign celebrating the *Stormblood* expansion's launch 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 unobtainable, leaving many newer players disappointed as they missed out on this exclusive reward.

Fortunately, a new opportunity to acquire the Falcon mount has emerged through the recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event. This event offers players a chance to earn various sought-after rewards, from exclusive accessories to mounts, minions, and furnishings.
The current Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event includes the **Falcon Ignition Key** as one of its prized rewards. To participate and earn rewards, complete any of the qualifying duties within the game, including GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul’dah. Additionally, the Mogpendium offers special challenges, such as weekly and the one-time Ultimog challenge, which can boost your rewards.
By completing these tasks, you'll earn 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, 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**. This leaves you with a limited window to claim 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 on the game, including tips on obtaining Dawntrail's Rroneek mount, be sure to explore our other resources.
