The '''Planck Warp Instigator''' (abbreviated '''PWI''') is a warping device, allowing instant transportation to a location up to 2500 away.  The device may be used once every 30 seconds and costs minimal elec. It is tech 20.
 
 
The PWI is a reward for a mission chain that starts in [[Serpica (Galaxy)|Serpica]].  Total costs for completing the mission run to about 25 bil (not for the light-walleted), making this item quite rare.
 
 
Since its creation, there has been much debate as to the value of the PWI.  Here are some advantages and disadvantages to the item.
 
 
==Advantages of the PWI==
 
 
It allows you to maneuver easily in [[DG]]s, selecting appropriate AIs and singling them out for destruction.  The PWI also allow for rapid escape from AIs when shields get low.  It is also incredibly useful in [[PvP]], as it allows for a quick ambush and retreat.
 
 
==Disadvantages of the PWI==
 
 
Many balk at the cost (25 bil) and difficulty of completing the mission chain.  To safely carry the PWI, you must use [[Gear Glue]] 20 at 100mil each.  Recently, [[Tweaks#Tech_2|Afterburners]] have rendered the PWI nearly obsolete for merely increasing speed in a straight line.  The PWI also competes with "baby PWIs" such as the Gallows Robber (from Piracy missions), Warpping Paper (Christmas drop) and Witch's Broomstick (Halloween drop).
 
 
==Conclusion==
 
 
The PWI is underestimated, and many good players use them - from [[Tobal]] to [[TehGeneral]] to Starbawk... A PWI is an essential tool for high level [[DG]]s, and is especially good for [[Speed Demon Class|Speed Demons]].

Warp Devices.jpg

Most warp devices will instantly warp you in the direction you're facing the maximum distance listed. You may not travel the full distance if there are celestial bodies, bases, envelopments, or wormholes in the way.

Some warp devices will move you sideways or backwards or place you at some position relative to your target.

See Transwarp Devices for travel between galaxies
