The cloak of evasion, also known as the evade cloak, is a recurring light green piece of clothing in the Dragon Quest series. This garb increases the frequency of evading attacks from the usual 1⁄64 (~1.56%) to 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.
