Shadow Armor

Shadow Armor (Shadow Armor +3 in-game) is the best body armor for thieves and its dual- and multi-classes in Baldur's Gate. Compared to normal studded leather armor, Shadow Armor weighs 17 lbs less, has an armor class three points lower and it offers +15% bonus to hide in shadow. It still has the same modifiers as the normal studded leather armor and requires 6 strength to wear this armor.
==Locations==
*In Baldur's Gate, it's sold at the Thunderhammer Smithy for a hefty sum of gold, but it's the best armor for thieves available.
*In Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear, it is dropped by the Shadowy Figure in the Canyon Ambush.
*In Baldur's Gate II, it can be gained when the party kills Mae'Var. It can be compared to The Night's Gift, which has the same armor class, 20% Hide-in-shadows bonus, and is not limited to thieves, but it has negative armor modifiers.
