If you want to collect this armor set early without waiting for late story progression, this is the most practical route to follow. Each of the five pieces can be found at a specific point on the map, and acquiring them will involve hidden paths and breakable walls, as well as short cave segments with Abyss Cells.
The good news is that Odeck’s Protector Armor Set in Crimson Desert can be collected long before the Slumbering Soul questline unlocks later in the story. Once you know where each piece is, you can build the full set early without any extra effort.

Start with the easiest piece. Head to the Sanctum of Temperance south of Hernand. From the entrance, move to the northeast side and climb the stairs.

At the top, look for a small opening in the wall and climb through it. Inside, there is another hidden opening covered by bushes and easy to miss. Walk through it to find a chest containing the Protector Plate Boots.
This location does not require breaking any walls, so you can grab it immediately.

Next, travel to Perwin Quarry south of Witchwoods and look for a cave entrance blocked by a metal wall along the cliffside.
Use Focus Force Palm to break the wall and enter. Inside, you will encounter Abyss Cells, and you must collect and seal them using Axiom Force before you can move deeper into the cave.

Once the path is clear, continue to the back and open the chest to collect the Protector Plate Gloves along with a Palmar Pill.

For the helm, travel to the area in-between Hexe Sanctuary and Denn River, near a fast travel point. Look for a cave entrance hidden behind a breakable wall.
This wall requires three Force Palm hits to break. Once inside, you will find Abyss Cells blocking your way. Gather and seal them before moving deeper into the cave.

After clearing the path, check the chest on the right side to obtain the Protector Plate Helm.

Odeck’s Protector Plate Cloak Location in Crimson Desert

The cloak is the easiest piece to miss if you take the wrong route. Go to Silver Wolf Mountain east of Pailune and locate Blackbear’s Hideout.
Do not enter through the obvious cave at the back. Instead, look for a narrow crevice between a bridge below and a watchtower above. Inside that gap, there is a ladder leading underground.
Follow the path downward through Blackbear’s Hideout, clearing the Black Bear enemies as you go instead of trying to rush past them.

At the bottom, clear the large chamber, then head left from the stairs and use the short ladder through the hole in the floor. The Protector Plate Cloak is lying on the ground, not inside a chest, so make sure you do not walk past it.
Odeck’s Protector Plate Cloak Stats:
| Attribute | Value |
| Defense | 3 |
| Refinement | 3 |
Odeck’s Protector Plate Chest Location in Crimson Desert

The final piece is located in the Wayward Woods area at the top of Silver Wolf Mountain. Look for the underground area called the Four Pits of the Wayward Woods.
It can be found in one of those pits inside a breakable wall. Destroy the wall using Focus Force Palm, then descend into the pit.

This area is more dangerous compared to other locations, it is recommended to clear nearby enemies first before collecting the chest.

Alternative Ways to Get Odeck’s Protector Armor Set in Crimson Desert

Image via Pearl Abyss and YouTube/@ArekkzGaming
As I have mentioned in the beginning, you can acquire the full set by completing the Odeck Tribe faction questline and the quest named “Slumbering Soul” in particular.
However, this is not possible before you progress through Chapter 8, therefore it’s a lot more time-consuming method than simply gathering the individual pieces.
