FFXIV: How to Get Synthetic Resin & What It’s For

As we wait for the next major story patch to drop, now’s a pretty good time to catch up on crafting, gathering, voyages, and other side content in Final Fantasy XIV. Here’s how to get Synthetic Resin and what it’s used for in FFXIV.

How to Get Synthetic Resin in FFXIV

Synthetic Resin is a reagent item that can be found in FFXIV, and is also market prohibited, which means that you can’t sell it to other players or trade it away. This also means that you need to acquire this item manually, which can take quite a bit of time.

There’s only one way of getting Synthetic Resin right now, and that requires you to have access to an airship. If you’re in a level 8 Free Company with an FC house, you should be able to make use of the airship and submarine facilities there, which is by far the easiest and most convenient way to get started on your voyages.

The following airship voyages have a chance of rewarding you with Synthetic Resin:

• Sea of Clouds – Sector 13
• Deep-sea Site 5
• Deep-sea Site 6
• Flickering Dip
• Kanayama
• Komura
• Sea of Ash 3

What It’s Used For

While there aren’t any major side quests in FFXIV that really require you to have Synthetic Resin, this reagent is used in a fair number of housing projects that can help to furnish and decorate your house and apartment in unique ways.

While in your house, interact with the Schematic Board to check out a whole list of items you can get in exchange for Synthetic Resins. These will include the Weapon Shop Prototype, the Chocobo House Prototype, and the Aetherial Wheel and Wheel Stand Prototypes.

We’ve listed all the Prototypes you can get with Synthetic Resin down below:

• Weapon Shop Prototype
• Moghouse Prototype
• Chocobo House Prototype
• Paissa House Prototype
• Shirogane Castle Prototype
• Odder Otter House Prototype
• Aetherial Wheel Prototype V-VII

Essentially, if you really want to get into furnishing your property and building a good living space, your Synthetic Resin will come in handy.
