The goobbue horn, used to summon the goobbue mount, can be obtained by players level 30 or above. To do so, simply speak with the "wandering minstrel" NPC, who can be found in eastern La Noscea (36,25).

<Summoning Your Mount>
Click on the horn icon situated in the micro menu. The conditions for summoning the goobbue, and the restrictions while mounted, are the same as for the personal chocobo.

Just how much stuff are they planning on squishing onto that micro-menu? And more importantly, if this is a limited item, is everyone going to see that horn and never be able to use it? Awful idea.

You didn't have a chocobo icon until you got your whistle.

Oh god here we go...
Another person without a 50 bitching and complaining.

The horn will probably only appear when you Actually have the Mount itself.. I think before I got a personal Chocobo, the Icon wasn't there till I obtained it

Also, the limited item may only be available until 2.0 comes out, at which time they are completely redoing the UI. I don't think it is much to worry about at the moment.

No they already answered this in the JP side limited time means you only have limited time to obtain the item to call the new mount but you will be able to use it even in 2.0 if you obtained it already.

the UI pre 2.0 is static but the new client should allow for customization.. so just chill out level 36 conj and think of all the content that you still get to do and have it be new, while I get my goobue and enjoy my first taste of newness in 3 weeks. sweet sweet content.

Is the level of someone's highest job really tantamount to their ability to think? I thought the Chocobo icon was in the micro-menu before I got mine. Chill out guys. <_<;

Even still my other point held until someone mentioned the UI redesign. I just don't want to see the micro-menu that I almost never use growing halfway across the bottom of the screen. I'd prefer it stay "micro." I really don't think I need to be level 50 to have that opinion or preference.

So looks like you have just under 1 year to get it.

I love how higher level = higher relevance on these forums. But yeah, this shouldn't be a problem with the UI redesign.
