Where To Get Black Feathers in RF5 (Location + Uses)

The Black Feather is a mid-game item obtained from Chuckadoodles, which are found at Kelve Lava Cave: Depths.

Since a Black Feather is a rare drop from Chuckadoodles, it’s better to tame one. That way they’ll produce black feathers at your monster barn every day.

Note: Kelve Lava Cave: Depths is inaccessible until you reach a good ways into the main story (no spoilers).

Obtaining Black Feathers

Chuckadoodles are very easy to spot because they have their own area and Monster Gate that only spawns Chuckadoodles.

Once you’ve found them, here are two ways you can get Black Feathers from them:

Method 1: Monster Loot

The first method to get Black Feathers is obtaining it as loot via:

• Defeating Chuckadoodles
• Spell Seal item steal

Note: For Spell Seals, you can only steal one (1) item per monster. If the item you obtained isn’t a Black Feather, defeat the monster and wait for another spawn.

Obtaining Black Feathers this way will take you quite a while because they have a low drop rate. Unless you have items that boost drop rates, taming a Chuckadoodle will be a better and more consistent way to get Black Feathers.

Method 2: Taming Chuckadoodles

Taming a Chuckadoodle is relatively easy since it drops its favorite taming items.

Give these to a Chuckadoodle to get the best chance of taming it:

• Egg (Any Size)
• Bird’s Feather

Tip: You can brush monsters up to 15 times to increase your chances of taming them.

Once you’ve tamed a Chuckadoodle, it will now produce a Black Feather daily at the Monster Barn it resides in.

Note: Make sure your Monster Barns have enough space to accommodate the Chuckadoodle. You’ll know you lack space when:

• The first icon that appears after you give an item is a Skull Mark instead of a Heart
• No Musical Notes appear when you brush a monster (brushed less than 16 times)

Black Feather Uses

Use #1: Upgrade Material

The Black Feather offers a modest INT: +14 when used as an upgrade material.

Use #2: Crafting Material

The Wind Cloak is the best item you can make that requires a Black Feather. It has the highest defensive stats for armors around its skill level and will surely last you through the mid-game up to the end of the main story.

As for Weapon Recipes you can craft with a Black Feather, they also offer relatively good stats for a mid-game item.
