The '''cloak of evasion''', also known as the '''evade cloak''', is a recurring light green piece of clothing in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. This garb increases the frequency of evading attacks from the usual {{Fraction|1|64}} (~1.56%) to {{Fraction|1|8}} (12.5%) (see below for exceptions.) It is often a mid-ranking clothing designed for spellcasters and other characters who cannot wear heavier armor.
