Up until the latest *Dawntrail* expansion, *FFXIV* boasts an array of hundreds of mounts for players to unlock and explore Eorzea and beyond. The Falcon mount, however, is particularly rare, not due to its scarcity among players, but because of the unique method required to obtain it.
Initially introduced during the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign, which celebrated the *Stormblood* expansion's release in Summer 2017, the Falcon mount was a special reward for players who subscribed for a minimum of 90 days during the campaign. Once the campaign concluded, the mount became unavailable, leaving many latecomers to the game disappointed and eager to find a way to claim this coveted prize.

Fortunately, a new method has emerged to secure this elusive mount. The recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event now offers players a chance to obtain various high-value rewards, including the **Falcon Ignition Key**. To participate in the current Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event, you must complete designated in-game duties, which can even include GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul'dah.
For those looking to maximize their rewards, the Mogpendium offers additional challenges such as weekly and Ultimog challenges, the latter of which can be completed only once per event. Completing these tasks earns you Tomestones of Phantasmagoria, the event's special currency. These can then be exchanged with the Itinerant Moogle NPC, found in all three main cities, for any reward you desire. Acquiring 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 provides a limited time to secure the Falcon mount before the next iteration of the Moogle Treasure Trove event, so don't let this opportunity slip away.
