There are just so many excellent mounts in Final Fantasy XIV, some of which you can obtain by grinding in the game, and some of which you can buy using FFXIV Gil. But today, we're going to take a look at some of the ten best and easiest mounts to collect.
1. Air Force Flying
The cute and speedy Air Force mount is a guaranteed drop upon completing Sigmascape V4.0 on Savage mode.
2. The Cloud Mallow: Fluffy Bliss
After attaining Sworn, a rank seven reputation with the moogles, you will get the opportunity to rest your tired toes atop the Cloud Mallow Mount and float away into Eorzea's sunset. After attaining that aforementioned rank seven, the Cloud Mallow mount can be summoned after buying Cloud Mallow Seeds for 200,000 Gil from Mogmul Mogbelly.
3. Midgardsormr: How To Train Your Elders
After progressing through Final Fantasy 14's Heavensward and completing the Main Scenario Quest Fetters of Lament, unlike other mounts earned within the main scenario quest, Midgardsormr's respect is made through your performed heroism within the story, so the mount feels slightly more deserved than the previous story-earned mounts.
4. Black Chocobo
The Warriors of Light, who can brave the Heavensward main scenario quest Divine Intervention, will be rewarded with a House Fortemps trained purebred Ishgardian black Chocobo.
5. Magitek Armor Mounts Can Fly Too
After progressing through Final Fantasy 14's Main Scenario Quest, you will have the chance of owning your very own Magitek Armor Mount to stomp around in style exclusively. Marching through the Main Scenario Quest for A Realm Reborn and finishing The Ultimate Weapon quest will reward players with this neat mount.
6. Bomb Palanquin Mount: Floating In Style
This mount requires a little more work but is still relatively straightforward to obtain:
1). Find the Kobold quest giver in 789th Order Dig in Outer La Noscea (x21, y18).
2). Complete the Highway Robbery quest.
3). Reach Trusted reputation rank four.
4). Purchase the Bomb Palanquin Mount for 120,000 Gil.
7. Cavalry Drake: A Fiery Dragon For Cheap
Completing beast tribe quests is an easy way to build up your mount library. One cool one is the Cavalry Drake mount, which is purchasable for 120,000 Gil after reaching Trusted rank with the Amalj'aa.
8. A Groovy Dhalmel Mount
With enough Gil, mount collectors can find a ton of mounts for sale on the market board. A notable mention is the Dhalmel Mount which is on sale usually for about 200,000 Gil.
This mount can also be acquired as a reward from the Kupo of Fortune, but if you have the extra Gil and want to skip on the activity, Dhalmel whistles are usually abundant in the marketplace.
9. Jonathas Achievement Mounts: Behemoth, Ahriman, or Magitek Deathclaw Mounts
Jonathas can be found in Old Gridania (X:10.6 Y:6.3). There, you can exchange in-game achievements for rewards including, and not limited to: Behemoth Warhorn to summon the mighty Behemoth mouth; a Magitek death claw identification key which gives you access to a death claw mount; and Voidal Resonator to call your very own Ahriman mount. Simply playing through the Main Scenario Quest will eventually earn you enough achievements for any or all of these mounts.
10. Level 30 Conjurer Unicorn Mount
The pathway towards Unicorn majesty is unlocked after completing the side quest Unicorn Power as a level 30 conjurer. A Unicorn Whistle is then granted once the quest is completed. Using this item calls the Unicorn mount and forever adds it to your mount list.
