Mounts
Mounts allow players to travel around Eorzea faster.
After acquiring a mount, it can be summoned by dragging the icon on the action bar and clicking the icon. Players can acquire their first mount, Company Chocobo, after completing the level 20 main story quest titled A Hero in the Making and joining a Grand Company. Players must also complete the quest My Little Chocobo given by an NPC located within their Grand Company Building. Other mounts can be acquired by meeting different requirements. Heavensward, FFXIV's first expansion, introduced Flying Mounts.
Enemies can still attack mounted players unless they ride a Chocobo Porter.
Mount speed
As players progress, the speed of mounts on the ground will increase in two stages. The first is via quest lines, whereas the second is via purchasable enhancements. All mounts have the same base movement speed increase.
The speed of mounts is limited in certain areas: Enhancement I is limited in 4.0 areas / Residential Districts / Idyllshire
The speed enhancement available for all areas can be confirmed via the Mount Speed window under Travel in the Main Menu.
The speed enhancement for Shadowbringers (5.0) zones is only acquired through Riding Maps Which can be purchased for Bicolor Gemstones from Gemstone Traders in each area that can have a speed increase.
The Shadowbringers Riding Map system is similar to the Enhancement II upgrades for all 2.0 through 4.0 zones, however Shadowbringers zones only have the (1) single speed Enhancement upgrade via Riding Maps purchased with Bicolor Gemstones, instead of receiving one speed upgrade from the MSQ, and then another via Allied/Centurio seals as in all previous expansions.
Quests that unlock Enhancement I
Completing the following Main Scenario Quests will unlock the first speed enhancement for one or more associated areas.
How to Unlock Enhancement II
Enhancement II is limited to 2.0 and 3.0 zones. Players must buy a Riding Map for each separate area using Allied Seals (2.0 zones) or Centurio Seals (3.0 zones & 4.0 zones) to gain the speed enhancement in the zone associated with the map. The player must have completed The Ultimate Weapon quest in order to purchase the Riding Maps.
For A Realm Reborn (2.0) zones, visit your Grand Company Hunt Billmaster in Uldah, Limsa Lominsa or New Gridania, startioned next to your Grand Company's hunt board. Each Riding Map costs 250 Allied Seals, for a total of 4,250 seals to upgrade all (17) 2.0 zones.
For Heavensward (3.0) zones, visit Ardolain in The Forgotten Knight in Ishgard. Maps cost 250 Centurio Seals per zone, for a total of 1,500 seals to upgrade all (6) 3.0 zones.
For Stormblood (4.0) zones, visit Estrild in Kugane or Leuekin in Rhalgr's Reach. Maps cost 250 Centurio seals per zone, for a total of 1,500 seals to upgrade all (6) 4.0 zones.
For Shadowbringers (5.0), Riding Maps are available from Gemstone Traders for 70 Bicolor Gemstones each per zone, for a total of 420 Bicolor Gemstones to upgrade all (6) 5.0 Zones.

Flying Mounts
Flying mounts were introduced in Heavensward, revealed at the Fan Festival in London 2014. Flying mounts allow the players to take to the sky and roam the areas of Heavensward freely. Many of the previous ground mounts, such as Company Chocobo, will be able to fly. To do this, you used to need to complete the quest I Believe I Can Fly (No longer needed as of Patch 5.3), located near the chocobo stables in Ishgard. However, flight in A Realm Reborn zones was enabled in Shadowbringers, and that quest was removed. While flying, the flying mounts have 200% of the speed of a regular ground mount. While running grounded, the flying mounts will be the same speed as a ground mounts (100%).
- You can escape enemies on the ground by flying.
Unlock
Players unlock flying mounts after completing The Ultimate Weapon. Before flying in an expansion zone, players need to attune with the Aether Currents in that zone. Players can check their attunement progress through the Aether Currents window under Travel in the main menu. Some Aether Currents are found in the zone while others are obtained by completing quests. Players are provided with an Aether Compass to aid them in their search.
- If you lose your Compass you can talk to Gibrillont at the Forgotten Knight, or Gaufrid at Rhalgr's Reach to get a new one.
Controls
After attuning to a zone, press the jump key while riding a flying mount to fly.
