The main difference appeared to be that the pieces over the thighs (cuisse) clearly have bands to them in suits of Half Plate Armor. Male versions of Half Plate Armor have a cuirass that looks more like a leather suit and which is very different from all the other armor in Neverwinter Nights 2.

Fantasy game art from Neverwinter Nights 2 . Studded Leather Armor in Neverwinter Nights 2 draws on the two basic styles of Leather Armor and look very much like Leather Armor except that some of the peripheral pieces (most often the boots, but sometimes the shoulder cops and vambraces) have metal studs or rivets. As the armor for the body isn't reinforced with studs or rivets at all, it probably cannot be properly called studded leather armor.

The area referenced as " Samarach " in Storm of Zehir is at the southern end of the island of Chult, separated from the rest of the island by the Sanrach Mountains. The bit of the Jungles of Chult on this side of the Sanrach Mountains is known as The Samarlogh. The gnomes in the logging camp visited as part of the Storm of Zehir campaign are from the far-off small island of Lantan .
