The Cloaking Device is a multi-tool upgrade.
Summary[ | ]
The Cloaking Device is a general Multi-tool upgrade.
Game Description[ | ]
On activation, this module draws power from Exosuit Life Support systems to manipulate the gravitational field around the user, refracting the light and creating an active camouflage effect.
This temporary effect can be used to escape unwanted hostile attention. WARNING: active camouflage may be aborted upon dramatic Exosuit maneuvers such as jetpack activation, or by activating Multi-Tool weapons systems.

Additional information[ | ]
The following observations from using the Cloaking Device under multiple players' perspectives are as follows:
- Despite the in-game description claiming that the Cloaking Device draws life support power, this does not appear to be the case. Instead, the Cloak has its own power meter that determines the amount of time you can use it within a short interval.
- While in continual use, only a translucent blue outline is visible to you and travelers (unless you or other players are in first person mode). You will also become invisible to sentinels, but not to predators (this is a bug).
- By continuously tapping the secondary fire button, the blue outline will also completely disappear from your perspective as well as from other first-person perspectives (this is an exploit allowing you to interfere with the charge depletion rate at will). However, by using this action, sentinels and predators will follow your trail and you will appear as a flickering outline for other players currently using third person mode. In addition, all players nearby will hear a loud whooshing sound when this happens.
