There are two methods by which the time to warp can be greatly reduced below its normal value. The first, known as the "[[cloak trick]]", utilizes a combination of a cloaking device and microwarpdrive to artificially reduce a ship's maximum velocity while simultaneously increasing its current velocity in the span of a few seconds. The second takes advantage of a peculiar property of [[Tackling#Stasis Webifier|stasis webifiers]] which increases the webbed ship's agility, decreasing its time to warp. This second method requires a companion ship, usually fitted with multiple webifiers. | There are two methods by which the time to warp can be greatly reduced below its normal value.
