Overview
Feather is a light and flexible material obtained from bird plumage. Because it tends to flow with the current of air, it has become a popular ornament showing flight and freedom. In Crimson Desert, Feathers serve as a crafting material in the Miscellaneous refinement category, used to upgrade light and cloth-based equipment.

Where to Find
Feathers are obtained by hunting birds. You can find birds throughout the open world, from forests to mountains. Use a bow to shoot them before they fly away. Hunting challenges like "Feather of the Earth" also involve bird hunting (carry 5 birds).
Uses
Feathers are classified under the Miscellaneous refinement category and are used at the smithy for upgrading:
Vendor Purchase
Feathers can be purchased from the Provisioner's Shop in Hernand town after reaching Chapter 4 of the main story. The stock refreshes every day at midnight (in-game time). Buying from the provisioner is the fastest way to stock up if you need Feathers in bulk for multiple refinement projects.
Best Farming Locations
Birds can be found all over the open world, from forests to mountains to the desert regions. The most productive areas for bird hunting include:
Hernand Woodlands: Dense tree cover hosts numerous bird species. The forested areas around Hernand Castle are particularly good.
Pailune Highlands: Mountain birds are common along ridgelines and cliff faces.
Open Fields: Grasslands between settlements often have flocks of birds grazing on the ground, making them easier to target before they take flight.
Use a bow to shoot birds before they fly away. Melee attacks rarely connect because birds take flight as you approach. A well-timed arrow can drop a bird from considerable distance.
Refinement Details
At the blacksmith, Feathers serve as a refinement material for levels 1 through 4 of the following equipment types. From level 5 onward, Abyss Artifacts are required in addition to standard materials.

Capes, mantles, and other back-slot equipment | |
Soft Armor | Linen and cloth body armor pieces |
Tips
Hunt birds with a bow for the best results. Melee attacks rarely connect before they take flight.
Keep Feathers in your inventory rather than selling them. They are needed for cloak and soft armor upgrades, which are important for characters favoring light equipment builds.
Birds are plentiful in forested areas around Hernand, so gather Feathers while traveling between quests.
