Up to the latest *Dawntrail* expansion, *FFXIV* boasts hundreds of unique mounts that players can unlock and ride across Eorzea and beyond. The Falcon mount, however, is particularly rare due to its limited availability. It was first introduced during the Fly the Falcon Mount campaign, celebrating the launch of the *Stormblood* expansion in the summer of 2017. Players who subscribed for at least 90 days during the campaign period were rewarded with this exclusive mount.
Once the campaign concluded, the Falcon mount became unobtainable, leaving many latecomers to the game disappointed as they missed out on this coveted item.

Fortunately, there's now a new way to secure this elusive mount. The recurring Moogle Treasure Trove event offers players a chance to earn various sought-after rewards, including the **Falcon Ignition Key**. This key is a highlight of the current Moogle Treasure Trove Phantasmagoria event.
To participate in the event and earn rewards, you must complete any of the qualifying duties within the game. Even activities like GATEs at the Gold Saucer in Ul’dah contribute to your progress. Additionally, the Mogpendium offers special challenges, including weekly challenges and the one-time Ultimog challenge, which can boost your rewards.
By completing these tasks, you'll earn Tomestones of Phantasmagoria, the event's special currency. You can then exchange these tomestones with 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 claim the Falcon mount before the next Moogle Treasure Trove event, so make sure to seize the opportunity.
