Everything about Drow Studded Leather Armour in Baldur’s Gate 3
In Baldur’s Gate 3 the Drow Studded Leather Armour piece is good early game gear for a stealthy Ranger or Rogue. The single bonus of a +1 to Stealth may not seem like much, but Stealth is vital to Rogue and Ranger gameplay, letting them strike from the shadows for increased damage and then ideally moving back into hiding to do the same thing again on their next turn. There will be better armour pieces for them in the later game, but the Drow Studded Leather Armour is a good early game piece that isn’t too hard to get once you find the Underdark.

How to Get Drow Studded Leather Armour in Baldur’s Gate 3
You can get the Drow Studded Leather Armour when you visit the Underdark in Act 1 of Baldur’s Gate 3. One of the easiest ways to get to the Underdark is through a well found in the Blighted Village. Your characters will have to pass a check in order to discover/see the well, and descending down into it will land you into a network of caves and caverns. From the bottom of the well, you’ll need to head west until you discover the Whispering Depths waypoint. Nearby will be a deep chasm. Cast the Feather Fall spell or drink a Feather Fall potion, then jump into the gap. You’ll land safely in the Underdark below.
If you’ve already been to the Underdark before and have done some exploring you may have already unlocked the Underdark – Selunite Outpost waypoint. You can use that to get relatively close to the spot you’ll find the Armour, as well. The location you’re looking for will be to the west of both of those Underdark entry locations. Southwest from where you land after jumping in the chasm, and Northwest from the Selunite Outpost waypoint.
How to Find the Locked Chest in Baldur’s Gate 3
It can be found inside of a locked chest, which is in a small, hidden alcove behind a wall of spider web. Burn the sticky web down with something fiery – a Fire Arrow or a simple Firebolt cantrip should easily do the trick. Once you can pass thorough you’ll find a variety of little loot on the other side, but what you’re really looking for is the Heavy Chest, which is locked. You’ll need a character with the Sleight of Hand skill in order to unlock it. The chest has a 15 difficulty check, so make sure you have some Thieves’ Tools on hand just in case you aren’t able to get it the first time. Open the chest and claim the Drow Studded Leather Armour.
