Razor-Tipped Feathers are found from Hawks. The Hawk enemy are found primarily in the White Silver Plains and the Nevira Snowplains, though they can also be found sparsely in the Frozen Valley. All three of these locations are in Cyslodia.
Hawk's are flying enemies, meaning that Shionne's Boost Attack is extra effective for quickly farming the beasts. Though, of course, you can just mop them up with a few AOE artes or a few chained single-target artes if you're a high enough level.
The most effective way to farm for Razor-Tipped Feathers is by skip-farming at the fast travel point next to the cabin in White Silver Plains. Skip-farming refers to when you fast travel to a location, farm a specific resource, then fast travel back to that same location to respawn the farmed resource.
In this case, we're skip-farming one specific flock of Hawks. After fast traveling to just outside the Highland Cabin, travel East and down past the three wheat that spawn there (this is also a good chance to skip-farm wheat). A group of three Hawks spawn there every time the area is refreshed. By fighting these Hawks, fast traveling back to the cabin, and going back to the same spot again, we can quickly grind up a solid number of Razor-Tipped Feathers, as well Sharp Fangs, which are their other dropped material.
If possible, equipping a Lucky Bangle is a fantastic idea. This accessory increases the drop rate of enemies, further increasing your Razor-Tipped Feather gain. These can be made from Lucky Pebbles, or you can get a free tier one Lucky Bangle while completing side-quests for Bregon in Bregon's Hideout.
If you plan on getting that free Lucky Bangle before doing your feather farming, you may want to consider reading this guide first!
