All of the cloaks have been quest completion rewards that haven't required another item to "upgrade". Until the full quest is datamined/tested, we don't know.
Worst case scenario you have to spend 7k to buy the one you want to get as the legendary later on. I would suggest getting the one that most benefits you right now, because I think it will be awhile before people complete the legendary cloaks. The non-spirit one was best for me as disc. If I have to spend 7k later to get the healing augmented cloak, so be it.
