Up to the latest *Dawntrail* expansion, *FFXIV* boasts an impressive array of hundreds of mounts that players can unlock and ride across Eorzea and beyond. Among these, the Falcon mount stands out due to its rarity and the unique way to acquire it.
The Falcon mount made its debut with the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign, celebrating the release of the *Stormblood* expansion in Summer 2017. Players who subscribed for a minimum of 90 days during this campaign were rewarded with this exclusive mount. Once the campaign concluded, the Falcon mount became unavailable, leaving many newer players disappointed and eager to add it to their collections.

Fortunately, a new avenue to obtain this coveted mount has emerged through the recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event. This event offers a variety of rewards, from exclusive accessories to mounts, minions, and furnishings. The current Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event features the **Falcon Ignition Key** as one of its prized rewards.
To participate and secure the Falcon mount, you must complete any of the qualifying duties in the game. Even activities like GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul’dah contribute to your event progress. Additionally, the Mogpendium offers special challenges, including weekly challenges and the unique Ultimog challenge, which can be completed once per event for bonus rewards.
By completing these tasks, you'll earn Tomestones of Phantasmagoria, the event's special currency. You can then exchange these Tomestones with the Initerant Moogle NPC, located in all three major cities, to claim your rewards. The Falcon mount requires **50 x Tomestones of Phantasmagoria**.
The Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event will continue until the release of Patch 7.2, scheduled for **March 25**. This window gives you a limited time to secure the Falcon mount before the next Moogle Treasure Trove event, so make sure to seize the opportunity.
