| - | Hold your cloak for approximately 20-25 seconds. This is done to make sure that your [[training:guides:session_timer|session change timer]] will expire by the time that you hit the gate. If you try to jump through the gate before your session timer expires you will just sit there like a retard as the Eve client yells at you and the hostiles relieve you of the burden of your ship and/or pod. | + | Hold your cloak for approximately 20-25 seconds.

| While waiting for the session timer to expire, right-click the gate and select **Add as First Waypoint** from the pop-up menu. Approximately 20-25 seconds (just before the session timer and gate cloak expires) after you jumped through the gate enable your ship's autopilot. Immediately click the stargate, press the approach button and mash the hotkey to activate your ship's MWD module. If your ship is equipped with a covops cloak enable this as well. **DO NOT** activate a non-covops cloaking device as it will significantly reduce your ship's maximum velocity and likely result in you dying horribly just outside of jump range from the gate. As soon as your ship reaches jump range the Eve client //should// automatically initiate a jump through the stargate, but it never hurts to mash the **Jump** button when it becomes active. Once you have successfully jumped to the other side of the gate take a quick look around for hostiles and make good your escape. | While waiting for the session timer to expire, right-click the gate and select **Add as First Waypoint** from the pop-up menu.

| - | **Protip:** Enable the [[Session Timer]] indicator in your Eve client settings. It's on the **General Settings** tab. This will place a tiny whirling clock icon in the upper left corner of the Eve client window which is displayed while a session timer is active. You can also see how much time is remaining on the session timer by mousing over the icon. | + | **Protip:** Enable the [[training:game_mechanics:session_timer]] indicator in your Eve client settings.
