* Improved Cloaking Device II. Prototype cloaking device has too big speed penalty preventing you from reaching the required velocity.

* [[Microwarpdrive]] of the correct size for your ship. That is: 5MN for frigates and destroyers, 50MN for cruisers, battlecruisers and industrials, and 500MN for battleships.

* If the ship is ~~bad at aligning you~~ may need inertia reducing modules such as nanofiber internal structures or inertia stabilizers.

* If the ship is slow to align it may need inertia reducing modules such as nanofiber internal structures or inertia stabilizers.

Do these things in this order while you are under the effects of gate cloak after jumping through a stargate or wormhole.

Line 65:

While you are cloaked the cloak will apply 75% speed penalty but at the same time the MWD boosts your speed by 500%. As a result your ship is able to reach at minimum 75% of its unmodified top speed while cloaked. And since you hit align before the cloak you will be aligned and at warp speed when the cloak drops. So when you deactivate the cloak (right before the MWD cycle is complete) the ship is able to enter warp immediately. This equals near insta-warp. With practice, you can be uncloaked for literally less than a second total on a gate. Practice in high-sec and you will find this is actually pretty easy and effective.

Part of the requirement to make the the microwarpdrive + cloak trick work is to have a size-appropriate microwwarpdrive, 5MN for a frigate, 50MN for a cruiser, 500MN for a battleship etc. Ships like the {{sh|Orca}} or the {{sh|Bowhead}} are technically capital-class sized but can only fit 500MN microwarpdrives due to fitting restraints. As such {{co|crimson|they can not use the microwarpdrive + cloak trick}}.

For normal capital ships (carriers, dreadnoughts, force auxiliaries, supercarriers, titans and the {{sh|Rorqual}}) there are capital sized 50,000MN microwarpdrives, that can allow them to do the same microwarpdrive + cloak trick, although they have a cycle-time of 20 seconds (instead of the usual 10 seconds) and might require additional agility modules to ensure they get the speed up in time.

Some of the smaller capital ships, like carriers and dreadnoughts, can also use the undersized 500MN microwarpdrives to align in ~15 seconds by pulsing the microwarpdrive once then warp shortly after. While they are normally not agile enough to warp in 10 seconds flat, it's usually much faster than aligning normally or through the use of an appropriately sized 50,000MN microwarpdrive due to its cycle time of 20 seconds.
