FFXIV Easter Eggs: Hidden Mounts and Minions

Feature

With Easter nearly upon us, and possibly a few days off from work or school, it will give gamers a chance to do what they enjoy the most gaming. And if you're a fan of Final Fantasy, and in particular FFXIV, then why not jump back into the game and find some of the game's Easter Eggs.

We've compiled some of the easier ones to find and are free to obtain (except for some time spent in-game).

Minions


Giant Beaver
FFXIV Easter Eggs: Hidden Mounts and Minions

● Quest: The Dancing Plague (Extreme)
● Quest: When Beavers Cry
● Quest: And Then There Were None
● After defeating Titania in 'The Dancing Plague (Extreme)' quest, players will receive the Dancing Wing item. While this item can be used to craft many of "The Fae's" weapons, by completing the two quests: 'When Beavers Cry' and 'And Then There Were None', players can instead use the Dancing Wing to acquire the Giant Beaver minion.

Much-coveted Mora

Sky Blue Back

● Quest: Seeking Sanctuary
● After completing the Endwalker main quest, the Clueless Crier in Old Sharlayan will grant the player the Seeking Sanctuary quest. This will allow access to a personal Island Sanctuary, a new feature in patch 6.2. Cowries earned in the player's island can be used to purchase rewards. Collecting 4,000 cowries earns the Felicitous Fuzzball.

Nagxian Cat
FFXIV Easter Eggs: Hidden Mounts and Minions

● To obtain this cute cat, players will need to collect 800 sacks of nuts — which are earned by completing Hunts. Once complete, trade with the NPC J'lakshai in Old Sharlayan to claim the Nagxian Cat.


Mounts


Magicked Bed

● Craft: Level 80 Carpenter with Master Carpenter VII
● To fly around in a cosy bed, players will need to be a level 80 carpenter with Master Carpenter VII. To craft the mount, players must gather 3 Enchanted Elm Lumbers, 4 Undyed Velveteens, and 4 Cloudsbreaths.

Unicorn
● Quest: Unicorn Power
● Graceful, elegant, and timeless. The Unicorn is a majestic creature that can be ridden as a mount. To obtain the mound, the player must be a level 30 Conjurer (not a White Mage) and complete the Unicorn Power sidequest.

So, this Easter, head back into Final Fantasy XIV and take the opportunity to hop outside the main quest line. You'll never know what other Easter Eggs may be hidden.
