How to get Ra’Kaznar Ingots in Final Fantasy XIV (FFXIV)

Often coupled with Claro Walnut Lumber, Ra’Kaznar Ingots are one of the most sought after crafting resources in Final Fantasy XIV right now. These chunks of metal are used to craft a lot of high level gear, weapons, and even some level 100 Collectables.

Before the Ingot comes the Ore, so you’ll need to know where to go if you want to put your Mining skills to use and stock up in Ra’Kaznar Ore. 

How to get Ra’Kaznar Ore in Final Fantasy XIV

If you’ve just stopped off in Heritage Found to gather up some Claro Walnut Lumber, don’t leave too quickly. Instead, head over to the Electrope Strike Aetheryte and you’ll be able to gather some Ra’Kaznar Ore in the same trip. 

You’ll find three pairs of Mineral Deposits in this area, but they’re located pretty far apart. If you’re struggling to remember where the next one in the circuit will be, you can use the marker trick. Otherwise, you can use Lay of the Land to find the nearest node. 

If your percentage isn’t quite 100%, then you can use Sharp Vision actions to give yourself a boost, or if you have no other use for your GP you can use King’s Yield actions to maximize the number of Ra’Kaznar Ore you gather. 

How to make and use Ra’Kaznar Ingots in Final Fantasy XIV

Turning ore into ingots isn’t too difficult, but it does require either your Blacksmith or your Armorer to be at least level 95. Ra’Kaznar Ingots are a level 98 recipe, and you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 5 Ra’Kaznar Ore
• 1 Magnesia Powder
  • This can be gathered from level 100 nodes in Shaaloani, around (X:17.3, Y:32.4)

Once you’ve got Ra’Kaznar Ingots, you can use them to craft a long list of gear and weapons, including those from the following sets:

• Ra’Kaznar sets
• Claro Walnut sets
• Black Star sets

They can also be used in a selection of level 100 Collectables, which can be handed in to get some Orange Crafters’ Scrips:

Finally, if you’ve gotten lucky with your rolls in Everkeep (Extreme) and got your hands on some Resilient Armor, you can use it to craft some Electrope Barding for your companion. This recipe is learned through Master Armorer X, and you’ll need the following ingredients to make it:

• 1 Resilient Armor
• 2 Softsilver Ingot
• 1 Spodumene
• 2 Ra’Kaznar Ingot
