There are over 200 mounts in Final Fantasy 14, and choosing between them all can be overwhelming. If you're looking for a new flying horse with a high level of prestige, look no further than the Juedi mount, originally added in patch 4.35. If you want to get this mount, you'll need to master Heaven-on-High.
Heaven-on-High is a unique rogue-like dungeon in which the layout of each floor will change each time you enter. With just one life, you'll need to climb through the dungeon with the hopes of reaching its peak. Let's go over how exactly to get the Juedi Mount, and some tips for clearing Heaven-on-High.
Updated April 4, 2023: Despite Heaven-on-High being quite out of date at the moment, there are still some great reasons to go diving into this deep dungeon. The Juedi mount is one of the greatest rewards you can get, so we've made sure this guide has all the information you need.
How To Get The Juedi Mount
To unlock Juedi, you will need to climb Heaven-on-High. This deep dungeon has 100 floors to conquer, with an ever-changing layout that can be difficult to prepare for. The reward for clearing the 100th floor of Heaven-on-High is an Empyrean Reliquary.
After clearing the 100th floor for the first time, the Confederate Custodian in the Ruby Sea (X:21.2, Y:9.3) will have new items available for purchase. Now, you can trade your Empyrean Reliquary for one of four Empyrean Accessories or a furniture item. The accessories are listed below.
- Empyrean Bracelet
- Empyrean Earring
- Empyrean Necklace
- Empyrean Ring
To get the Juedi Horn, you will need to purchase all four accessories and have them in your inventory. Then, speak to the Cast-off Confederate in the Ruby Sea (X:21.6, Y:9.9). He will reward you with the Juedi Horn and the 'True Hero' title. Simply use the Juedi Horn to add the mount to your collection.
This means you'll have to complete Heaven-on-High a total of four times to get the Juedi Horn.
Note that you don't have to purchase the accessories - talking to the Cast-off Confederate with four Empyrean Reliquaries in your inventory will do the trick. Also note that the Empyrean Shrine, the furniture item, will not count as one of the four.
Tips For Clearing Heaven-on-High
Clearing 100 floors of Heaven-on-High can be difficult, so let's go over a few tips that will help you get there. For more information on this dungeon be sure to check out our complete guide to Heaven-on-High.
- Choose the right Job: In Heaven-on-High, some Jobs are better than others when it comes to safety and efficiency, which are two of the most important factors. Gunbreaker, Warrior, and Red Mage, for example, have excellent self-healing and high-damage attacks, making them perfect choices for clearing the dungeon.
- Fight enemies one at a time: Most encounters in Heaven-on-High are scaled for a single player fighting a single enemy at a time. Fighting more than that can put you at a severe disadvantage, especially on floors with debilitating debuffs. Try to only face enemies one-on-one, especially if you are playing on your own.
-
Play with friends: Heaven-on-High becomes much more manageable when you are playing with three other people, especially when those players are friends you trust. Coordinating pulls, splitting roles, and reviving each other will make clearing this dungeon much easier, so play with friends if you can.
- If you're up to putting your trust in strangers, try making a Party Finder group with the express purpose of taking on Heaven-on-High.
