How does a Druid become proficient in half plate if it essentially does not exist for them?The question of studded leather also remains true, although since Sage Advice is stated to be official rulings, and it specifies studded leather as one of the common armors for Druids, it's at least clear they can choose to wear it. However, that still then raises the question of if they're allowed to wear it because it doesn't contain enough metal to be a concern, or if it's because the PHB does not specify that the spikes or rivets of studded leather have to be metal.All in all I forgot to add these points, so I'll try and add to the original post.</blockquote>
