Mounts allow players to travel around Eorzea faster. After acquiring a mount, you can ride it by dragging the icon onto your action bar. Players can acquire their first mount, Company Chocobo, by playing through the main story and joining a Grand Company at around level 20. Other mounts can be acquired by completing different requirements. Heavensward, A Realm Reborn's first expansion introduces Flying Mounts.

  • All mounts have the same movement speed increase.
  • Enemies can still attack you while you are mounted. They can potentially injure your mount, slowing its movement speed significantly.
