Cloak Enchants in WoW Classic
A cloak enchant flexes to the job: from threat and armor to elemental resistance. Below is what to apply on your cloak on the x5 server. Enchants are applied by Enchanting.
◆Cloak enchant options
| Enchant | Effect | For whom |
|---|---|---|
| Greater Defense | +70 armor | Tanks, survival |
| Greater Resistance | +5 to all schools | Raid resist sets |
| Agility | +agility | Physical DPS |
| Subtlety | −2% threat | DPS, to stay under the tank |
| School Resistance | +fire/frost/nature resist | Themed bosses |
Pick by role
- Tanks: Greater Defense for armor; on resist fights swap to the needed school Resistance.
- Physical DPS: Subtlety for threat control or Agility for damage.
- Resist sets: see the resistance gear guide — the cloak adds to total resist.
◆Where to get it
Any Enchanter applies it; materials are dust and essences. Find a master in world chat or the Auction House.

FAQ
?What is the best cloak enchant?
It depends on role: DPS often take Agility or Subtlety (−2% threat), tanks take Greater Defense (+70 armor), and for resist bosses Greater Resistance (+5 to all schools).
?What does Subtlety on the cloak do?
It lowers generated threat by 2%, helping DPS avoid pulling off the tank. Useful for rogues, hunters and feral druids in raids.
?Should I put resistance on the cloak?
Yes. Against bosses with heavy magic damage (Ragnaros — fire, Huhuran — nature, Sapphiron — frost) a school-resistance cloak is part of the resist set.
