Overview
Link to Article on Turbine Site
 * Introduced in the Cloak of Darkness event.
 * Found in Loot, for example Mana Forge Chests
 * No armor level
 * Can be leathered (Retained) as of the Master of Design patch.
 * The level requirement to wield is dependent on the cloak's max level.
 * The pattern differs by type of cloak (see below), the colors depend on the color of the undershirt and pants.
 * Cloak slot added to paper doll above the clothing slots
 * Can be leveled like Aetheria
 * Level 1 - 1,000,000,000 (Level 30 to wield)
 * Level 2 - 3,000,000,000 (Level 60 to wield)
 * Level 3 - 7,000,000,000 (Level 90 to wield)
 * Level 4 - 15,000,000,000 (Level 120 to wield)
 * Level 5 - 31,000,000,000 (Level 150 to wield)
 * All Cloaks are part of an armor set that boosts one skill by 2 points per level.
 * Each level your cloak acquires will increase the set skill by +2, and increase the rate of surging.
 * See Talk:Cloaks for the set ID that corresponds to a particular skill.
 * Because there are 35 different sets for Cloaks, each individual set/surge of Cloak is much less common than any given set/surge combination of Aetheria.

Loot Generated Cloaks
These cloaks are part of the Loot system and as such can be "dropped" by any loot generator (creatures, chests). Like with most treasure, the more powerful and higher level versions are found in the highest tiers of loot.
