A few weeks ago, Final Fantasy XIV released Patch 7.1, which added a lot of new things for players to explore, such as the first level of the latest Alliance Raid, another part of MSQ, and some new crafting materials and recipes. Among all the new items, the most wanted by players is the new Royal Damask.

Although this ingredient can only be used to make Royal Bed, the process of obtaining it is very difficult. This also makes Royal Bed, a seemingly inconspicuous piece of furniture, become the capital of the players who own it.

In order to allow you to show your powerful abilities in the player community as soon as possible, this guide will introduce you to the specific methods of obtaining this precious crafting material and how to use it. Without further ado, let’s start exploring!

How To Get?

First of all, we need to understand that Royal Damask will only appear in Echoes of Vana’diel Alliance Raid. If you are a loyal player of Final Fantasy series of games, you will experience the original FF11 here. There are a lot of nostalgic-themed raids that allow you to complete them while enjoying the retro feel.

But it should be noted that you need to meet some conditions to unlock the first tier of quests in this raid. First, you need to have a level 100 Disciple of War Class or Disciple of Magic Class, then you need to complete all MSQs in 7.0 Dawntrail, and finally you need to ensure that your item level is 695 or above.

If you haven’t completed the above three requirements before exploring, you can spend as much FFXIV Gil as possible on upgrades or quests. Once you meet the requirements, you can go to Tuliyollal and stand next to the main Aetheryte in the city and talk to Hoobigo Messenger.

It will give you a quest called An Otherworldly Encounter, after which you need to go to Mamook and talk to Miilal Ja, the mother of Bakool Ja Ja. Then, you can talk to several NPCs around as many times as required in the quest log, and after a few cutscenes, you will unlock Jeuno: The First Walk.

Now you are inside the raid, but be aware that you may have to wait in line for a long time before entering the raid, as many players want to get the precious Royal Damask. So if you find that your waiting time is more than 30 minutes, you can give up this time and instead upgrade your fishing or cooking level to unlock more Major-General minions.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that even if you have entered the raid, there is no guarantee that you will get Royal Damask after the first run. It is precisely because of this very low drop rate that it has become a very scarce crafting material. Since you will enter this raid with other players, you also need to be wary of other players competing for it.

How To Use?

As I just said, Royal Damask is an essential crafting material in making Royal Bed, but it needs to be reminded that this recipe can only be obtained by your Carpenters reaching level 100. You can find the recipe for this interior furniture in Carpenters section of Job Menu in the game interface.

In addition to Royal Damask, which is very difficult to obtain, you will also need the following materials to start making it. Here I can remind you that you can first farm the easier materials in the recipe, such as White Gold Ingots or Ancient Lumbers, which will help you save a lot of time and energy.

• 32 Wind Crystals
• 32 Ice Crystals
• 3 Dark Mahogany Lumber
• 3 White Gold Ingots
• 3 Thunderyards Silks
• 3 Ancient Lumbers
• 3 Rubies

While Royal Bed isn’t a high-quality item, that’s useful to you in your quests or combat, you’ll need 4207 Craftsmanship to craft it. You can then put it on display in your own house or apartment. If you’re a player with a strong business brain, you can also place it in the player community or on Marketboard in exchange for some FFXIV Gil.

While some players may think that spending so much time and effort crafting furniture in an MMO like Final Fantasy XIV is completely unnecessary, the sense of accomplishment you get when you create the perfect virtual space is incredibly satisfying, and it goes without saying that plenty of players will praise you for it. But for this Final Fantasy XIV Item, in addition to the final crafting materials, the interesting music and game mechanics in Jeuno: The First Walk are also worth trying for many players.

That’s how to get Royal Damask after Final Fantasy XIV released Patch 7.1, and how to use it. I hope you can explore some new gaming experiences in this beautiful MMO, and make a Royal Bed that you can show off soon. I wish you a happy game!
