All Free Mounts in Final Fantasy XIV & How to Get Them

How to Get Free Mounts in Final Fantasy XIV

As stated above, there are quite a few avenues that will lead you to free mounts of all kinds. The easiest and most straightforward method is progressing through the main scenario, but you could also attempt to clear extreme trials or level up your beast tribe reputation. If you want free mounts in FFXIV, try these things:

MSQ
Tribal Quests
Gold Saucer
Extreme Trials
Dungeon Farming
Deep Dungeons
Hunts
Special FATEs
PVP
Ishgardian Restoration

Some of the above tasks are much easier than others (most people don’t want to delve into PVP for example), but they are varied enough that everyone can get a few free mounts regardless of their playstyle. Keep reading on for more specific info regarding every free mount in Final Fantasy XIV.
