Overview
Odeck's Protector Plate Cloak is a Boss Chain Mail cloak piece in Crimson Desert. A plate cloak once worn by the Forgotten General who guarded Odeck. Layered silver pauldrons cover the shoulders, while the deep crimson cloak falls long behind the back, preserving the general's authority. Even after being sealed within the deep valley, it remains remarkably resistant to rust. Standing near it, one can feel the weight of the age-old vow.

How to Obtain
Odeck Ruins is the second mission within Slumbering Soul, following The Guardian's Tomb. Its objectives are examining the ruins, fighting their slumbering guardian and obtaining the artifact. The recorded rewards include all five Odeck's Protector armor pieces, Awakened Spirit and an Abyss Artifact. The cloak record names Bargul and a Smith recipe of 20 Abyss Cells plus any three eligible sealed Power Core items total. It records all playable characters, Defense 0 to 12, Ice Resistance Lv.3 and Stamina Cost -8% on the +10 card. The older Pelu cache, black-bear aggro and guaranteed-safe pickup instructions remain separate unverified route reports; the item record does not settle their precise conditions or the old Silver-price label.

Notes
Chain mail provides strong protection while still allowing decent mobility, sitting between Leather Armor and Plate Armor in terms of weight and defense.
Equipment can be improved through the Refinement System at a Blacksmith.

Odeck's Protector Set Acquisition Guide
The Odeck's Protector Plate set has older reports of five hidden pickups. Exact records also document a full-set quest reward and crafting routes, so the set is not exclusively cache loot or merely a cosmetic trophy. The earlier account says the helm is gated by a Chapter 9 quest; that precise universal gate is not established by these item and reward records.
Set pieces and their unlock methods:
Helm: gated behind the chapter 9 quest The Veiled Witch, which lifts a curse at the helm's location. Focus Force Palm opens the rock cache.
Chest Armor: retrieved from a hidden hole that must be broken open with Focus Force Palm. Two nearby holes look similar, so target the correct one.
Gloves: unlocked by smashing one of the colorful rocks at its map marker with Focus Force Palm.
Cloak: looted from a cache in Pelu. The area is patrolled by black bears that stay hostile even after Pelu has been reclaimed, and aggro will block the pickup prompt.
Boots: hidden in a chest at a sanctum location. The sanctum does not need to be cleared; the chest can be looted directly.
All five pieces share the same silver finish by default, so the ingredients for a matching look are stored together once the full set is equipped. The pieces accept dyes, which allows for custom color schemes without changing the model.
Pickup Location
The cloak is staged inside the Pelu region. Even after Pelu has been cleared and reclaimed during the campaign, black bears continue to patrol near the pickup. The loot prompt will not fire while aggro is active, so the bears must be killed or fully shaken before the cloak can be picked up.
Recommended Approach
Running past the bears is possible but risky. Killing them clears the area, prevents repeat aggro, and guarantees that the cloak cache is interactable on the first attempt.
