With more than 70 pieces of gear available in total, Forspoken allows players to experiment with some pretty unique builds. However, the most important component of any setup is arguably Frey's cloak, which, as well as boosting players' Health, Stamina, and Defense stats, can also provide them with some pretty unique effects.
Finding the best cloaks in Forspoken can make the game a lot easier, though, with 25 of them to choose from (27, if pre-order bonuses are included), it can be difficult for players to know which cloak will best complement their playstyle. To help with this, information about every cloak in Forspoken can be found down below, including where to find them and what effects they grant.

Which is the Best Cloak in Forspoken?
The best cloak in Forspoken will likely vary from player to player, depending on both their skill level and their play style. Players who are calm and calculated in their approach to combat will likely find the Forfend cloak to be the best option, though if they don't tend to use Surge Magic that often, the Bonifate cloak may also be appealing. For those who focus more on defense and dodging, the Incomparable and Veriment cloaks should come in handy.
As players head toward the end-game, however, the Unbroken cloak becomes very difficult to ignore, particularly when paired with the Spectrum Nail Design (unlocked by defeating the Deinosuchus Abomination in the Moulderings area of Avoalet) and the Balle Balle Necklace (unlocked by completing The Place of Prayer in The Sacred Peaks area of Cipal). This Critical Hit focussed build can be deadly in the right hands and makes the Unbroken one of the very best cloaks in Forspoken.
Forspoken is available now on PS5 and PC.
