Mounts
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.
- 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.

Lore
No adventurer should set out into the wilds without a trusty mount. In addition to the ever-popular chocobo, Eorzea is home to a number of other peculiar creatures which may serve as trusty steeds.
Chocobo
These flightless birds have sturdy legs with which to swiftly bear you across great distances.
Coeurl
Known for the whip-like appendages framing their fang-lined faces, these beasts have been tamed for those who prefer more truculent transportation.
Unicorn
This rare creature is rumored to dwell far north in the outer reaches of Coerthas.[1]
