    A lot of the minions have the Unique/Untradeable tag not for spoiler reasons, but to prevent someone from rolling when they already own it. It just seems to be one of the ways that they've tossed into various dungeons/raids/etc to keep people farming them forever so new players can have easier queues. It's been like this in the storyline dungeons for quite a bit now.

I'm actually surprised they don't put rare drop mounts or minions in the trials. You almost never see Innocence and it'll probably be the same for Hydaelyn, sadly.

    I think this is the real reason. If it was actually spoilers they were trying to avoid, then they did a really bad job with like 100 other minions that are tradeable.

    I wish it was on the market board too. Been trying for days and gave up to get my TV mount but now I'll try again and hope I'll get it soon.

    Took me 11 runs.
    The Starbird responds to these emote:
    • /handover = Flies over and feeds from your hand
    • /beckon = Flies toward you, turns, and perches on your shoulder
    • /pet = When flying, it will perform a loop

    The last chest can also drop an orchestration roll, https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...m/9af5f129926/ which is the music in the dungeon.

    Here is the most important question.
    Will it fly away from your shoulder if you move ?
    Most beckonable bird minion except from owl, scarlet peacock and hawk are always flew away which I hate.

    It's also my topic. I didn't want to know what it did yet. If I did I'd have looked it up.

    Discovery is part of the game.

    They can just say they got it in 11 runs without ruining how it acts for those who haven't gotten it yet.

    … a topic you posted on a public forum, in which you cannot dictate the flow of conversation.

    Yes, focus only on that. THANK YOU for completely ignoring this part

    I love the selective reading on this forum in almost every topic so much.
