*Final Fantasy XIV* boasts an impressive array of mounts that players can unlock and use as they explore Eorzea and beyond, especially with the latest *Dawntrail* expansion. Among these, the Falcon mount is particularly rare, not because of its exclusivity but due to the unique method required to obtain it.
The Falcon mount was initially introduced with the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign, celebrating 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 Falcon mount became unobtainable, leaving many latecomers to *FFXIV* disappointed as they missed their chance to add this unique mount to their collection.

Fortunately, a new avenue has opened for players to acquire the elusive Falcon mount. The recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event offers a golden window of opportunity to earn various sought-after rewards, including exclusive earrings, mounts, minions, furnishings, and more.
During the current Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event, the **Falcon Ignition Key** is one of the prized rewards available. To participate and earn these rewards, players must complete any of the qualifying in-game duties. Even engaging in GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul’dah contributes to event progress.
Additionally, the Mogpendium presents special challenges, such as weekly challenges and the one-time Ultimog challenge, which offer bonus rewards. Completing these tasks earns you Tomestones of Phantasmagoria, the event's unique currency. These Tomestones can then be exchanged with the Initerant Moogle NPC, located in all three major cities, for your desired rewards. Securing the Falcon mount requires **50 x Tomestones of Phantasmagoria**.
The Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event is scheduled to run until the release of Patch 7.2 on **March 25**. With a limited window to collect the Falcon mount before the next Moogle Treasure Trove event, make sure not to miss this opportunity.
