Beast tribes are a key component of the gameplay in Final Fantasy XIV's fictional land of Eorzea and beyond. With each expansion, FFXIV adds new beast tribes for players to unlock and complete daily missions for.

Beast tribes is a kind of side content that players may unlock to acquire a variety of items such as rare minions, orchestrions, emotes, outfits, and mounts. In addition, several beast tribe missions offer unique questlines that players may enjoy.

Because many beast tribes will give mounts that players can purchase with Gil or their unique Tokens, completing beast tribes on a regular basis is extremely beneficial. Players will be able to unlock some of the greatest horses available by maxing up their beast tribes via daily tasks.

This post will assist new and prospective players, as well as seasoned players, who do not find a purpose to complete beast tribes by listing ten of the greatest beast tribe mounts they may get by completing beast tribes daily.

It should be noted that each day, players may only complete a total of 12 tasks from all beast tribes, with each beast tribe having three accessible quests each day. This implies that a player can only perform four beast tribes every day if they complete all three objectives each day.

Players may improve their reputation with a beast tribe by completing daily objectives for that tribe. Normally, players may only purchase the beast tribe's special mount after obtaining a high level with them.

10. Striped Ray

The first mount on this list is the majestic Striped Ray mount, which lives and comes from the Ruby Sea. This mount is obtained by unlocking and completing the daily questline for Kojin's Beast Tribes. Kojin is a beast tribe that may be acquired after completing the Stormblood expansion's Main Scenario Questline.

Striped Ray characteristics and how to get them:

One of the coolest mounts out there since players will encounter this specific creature often in the Stormblood Main Scenario Questline, so owning this mount will feel good for players who pay attention to the story.
Players can buy this mount after reaching Rank 8 (Bloodsworn) with the Kojins.
After reaching Rank 8 reputation, players can then purchase this mount by exchanging 12 Kojin Sango with Shikitahe in the Ruby Sea.
These Kojin Sango can be earned through clearing the Kojin’s daily quests, so players will be able to buy this mount instantly given that they haven’t spent all of the Kojin Sango token yet.

6. Mikoshi

The following mount on our list is one of the most popular due to its appearance as well as a concealed sense of comedy inside the mount itself. Namazus are charming and annoying tiny catfish that players will meet often throughout the Stormblood expansion, and this mount is obtained by gaining their confidence.

Mikoshi characteristics and how to get them:

Unlocking the Namazu Beast Tribe requires a series of side quests that are funny and full of humour, a good change of pace after the dark war of Stormblood.
Players can purchase this mount after increasing the reputation rank with the Namazus to rank 8 (Bloodsworn) and buying the mount from Gyosho with 20 Namazu Koban, their unique currency that players can gain easily through doing their daily quests.

5. Portly Porxie

3. True Griffin

True Griffin is one of the nicest mounts in the game, and it is quite easy to get. The Griffin has a robust physique and can carry the players over the air with the flap of their white wings.

True Griffin characteristics and how to get them:

Ananta Beast Tribe is so far the only beast tribe where players can buy 2 mounts from 1 beast tribe. Like the Marid, players can get this mount by unlocking and ranking up the reputation level with the Anantas.
True Griffin can only be purchased after increasing one rank after being able to buy the Marid, the Bloodsworn Rank (Rank 8).Similarly, they can purchase the True Griffin Mount with 18 Ananta Dreamstaff from Madhura.
With this, unlocking and levelling up the reputation rank for Ananta is very profitable as players can get two mounts only by going through one beast tribe.

The Great Vessel of Ronka, a charming, unique-looking mount that can also generate a Peculiar Light, a mount action players may perform after receiving the mount, is one of the game's most appreciated mounts. This mount may be obtained from the Qitari beast tribe.
