Final Fantasy XIV has hundreds of mounts, and while other mounts might be shiner and more glamorous, there's still something appealing about the mighty Megalotragus, a huge horned goat that ferries the Warrior of Light around. Named after a prehistoric giant goat of the same name, the Megalotragus is both furry and fearsome.
Obtaining the Megalotragus Horn isn't immediately apparent, and it can be initially confusing how exactly you can earn the horn that summons the mount. This guide outlines the steps for getting the Megalotragus Horn and Mount for yourself, ensuring you can add one more mount to your FFXIV collection.
How to Unlock the Megalotragus in FFXIV
The Megalotragus is one of the more coveted rewards from FFXIV's Ishgardian Restoration. Check out our comprehensive guide for detailed information on unlocking and starting Ishgardian Restoration.
Once you've unlocked the Ishgardian Restoration, you can collect materials from the Diadem and craft items to earn Skybuilders' Scrips. This currency can be traded to the Enie in The Firmament (X: 12.0, Y: 14.0) for rewards, including mounts, minions, glamour gear, emotes and more.
You can obtain the Megalotragus Horn for a substantial amount of 8,400 Skybuilders' Scrips. It may seem like a daunting task, as it will require several hours of dedicated crafting or gathering. If you're looking for efficient ways to farm enough scrips, our Diadem guide can give you insight on earning plenty of Skybuilders' Scrips to purchase the Megalotragus.
The Megalotragus mount periodically appears as a reward during Moogle Tomestone events. It's been available for between 20 to 30 Moogle Tomestones during these events. However, due to the time between each event and the lack of certainty of the mount's inclusion, gathering Skybuilders' Scrips is still your most reliable way of obtaining the mighty Megalotragus.
