How to get the Qeziigural mount in Final Fantasy XIV (FFXIV)

With patch 7.05, a lot of new content was added to Final Fantasy XIV. Amongst them was Dawntrail’s first Treasure Dungeon, Cenote Ja Ja Gural, and it comes with a lot of rewards that you’re definitely going to want. 

Along with the Honeysuckler minion and the It Takes Two hairstyle, one of the most desirable items that can be obtained through Cenote Ja Ja Gural is a new mount. The Qeziigural mount is a metallic bird-cross-cat creature that glitters in the sun. It’s glorious, but getting it isn’t straightforward.

How to get the Qeziigural mount in Final Fantasy XIV

Before you can get the Qeziigural mount in FFXIV, you’ll need to do some Treasure Hunts. Namely, you’re going to need to stock up on Br’aaxskin Maps, hope that you get a portal, and dive into Cenote Ja Ja Gural.

Inside, one of the possible drops is an item called Twilight Gemstones. These very pretty gems are obtained through the coffers inside the Treasure Dungeon, though it’s far from guaranteed that they will drop. 

In total, you’re going to need three Twilight Gemstones before you can get the Qeziigural. You may get lucky and do well on the Gambler’s Lure minigames, but otherwise you’re likely going to need to run Cenote Ja Ja Gural a fair few times before you get the Twilight Gemstones you need. 

Once you’ve got three Twilight Gemstones, you can head directly to the Nexus Arcade in Solution Nine. Here, talk to Uah’shepya (X:8.6, Y:13.5) and select ‘Sublime Curiosities’. Along with the option to purchase the Mehwapyarra Whistle and the Mica Suit, you’ll find the Qeziigural Horn available, as long as you have the Gemstones you need. 

Other ways to get the Qeziigural mount in Final Fantasy XIV

Both the Qeziigural mount itself and the Twilight Gemstones needed to get it are tradeable, and therefore you can purchase both on the Markbetboard. However, neither option is exactly what you’d call cost effective. 

The Qeziigural itself is currently selling for around 40 million Gil, while Twilight Gemstones are selling for more than 7 million Gil. Of course if you want to take this option (please tell me your money making secrets), then your best option is to purchase the Gemstones and then trade them in with Uah’shepya yourself.
