holy necro !

decided to break out the passive cloak on the Planetary Cloaking wiki page.

here are the combos that i came up with:

Magnetosphere Charger competes for dark badges with Quantum Accelerators and Acceleration Protocols
Clandestine Revisions competes for relic badges with Cognizant Omniforge and Ring of Ascendence
Morphogenic Suits x10 (40 hour cooldown) can replace Clandestine Revision x3 (9 relic badges) in every scenario

So, with the current situation, you can get passive cloak from:

Gifts, Tributes, and IFGs up to 3000
Magnetosphere Charger x1 to 3350
Clandestine Revision x7 to 5100
Morphogenic Suits x12 to 6000
Deep Cover ability x31 to 7550
Xecti Ensconsing Field (solo-scanned) x15 (+2400) up to 9950

Alternatively (-6 IFG, +3 Mcharger, -1 Crevision, -2 Suits), you can get passive cloak from:

Gifts, Tributes, and IFGs up to 2400
Magnetosphere Charger x4 to 3746
Clandestine Revision x6 to 5246
Morphogenic Suits x10 to 5996
Deep Cover ability x31 to 7546
Xecti Ensconsing Field (solo-scanned) x15 (+2400) up to 9946

Alternatively (-5 IFG, +2 Mcharger, -2 Suits), you can get passive cloak from:

Gifts, Tributes, and IFGs up to 2500
Magnetosphere Charger x3 to 3493
Clandestine Revision x7 to 5243
Morphogenic Suits x10 to 5993
Deep Cover ability x31 to 7543
Xecti Ensconsing Field (solo-scanned) x15 (+2400) up to 9943

Alternatively (-5 IFG, +3 Mcharger, -2 Crevision, -1 Cover), you can get passive cloak from:

Gifts, Tributes, and IFGs up to 2500
Magnetosphere Charger x4 to 3892
Clandestine Revision x5 to 5142
Morphogenic Suits x12 to 6042
Deep Cover ability x30 to 7542
Xecti Ensconsing Field (solo-scanned) x15 (+2400) up to 9942

Alternatively (-2 IFG, +2 Mcharger, -2 Crevision, -1 Cover), you can get passive cloak from:

Gifts, Tributes, and IFGs up to 2800
Magnetosphere Charger x3 to 3892
Clandestine Revision x5 to 5142
Morphogenic Suits x12 to 6042
Deep Cover ability x30 to 7542
Xecti Ensconsing Field (solo-scanned) x15 (+2400) up to 9942

Alternatively (+1 IFG, +1 Mcharger, -2 Crevision, -1 Suits, +1 Cover), you can get passive cloak from:

Gifts, Tributes, and IFGs up to 3100
Magnetosphere Charger x2 to 3856
Clandestine Revision x5 to 5106
Morphogenic Suits x11 to 5931
Deep Cover ability x32 to 7531
Xecti Ensconsing Field (solo-scanned) x15 (+2400) up to 9931


EDIT (26apr2018): just noticed this topic that tried to cover these bases.

the XC1 Transport probe (Planet Building) can be used for +400 passive cloak (before 6500) so can replace a few Morphogenic steps.

the Chronophase Receiver (LM artifact) can be used for +400 passive cloak (before 7000) so can replace a few Deep Cover steps.

how about this one?
4 Gifts of the Void (160)
29 IFG/Combo. of Tribute of the Void (3060)
1 Rayvn/Jorts ability (3135)
2 M.C. (3899)
3 Clandestine Revisions (4649)
39 Jorts/Ravyn (7574)
I don't know if this is the "best" option, because it's rather light on the M.C.s, and I think most hardcore NPCers would want to use 3 or 4 M.C.s per planet. I'll come edit this if I find a cheaper option.

how bout keep adding cloak till its hidden?

only issue i can see with this setup is that it is only repeatable if you have enough Gifts of the Void ...

i only have 23 and that is with some carryover from last year .. so with your combo .. i can only do 6 planets like this.

but 7574 would be the highest that you can ravyn a planet.

well of course, that is the idea. but the breakouts were to give people some idea of alternative paths to 'hidden' based on what they have easier access to. for me, i want my mag chargers to go towards QAC upgrades, and my relics to go to rings of ascendance and cognizant omniforges. so minimizing those 2, even if i have to spend more time morphing / deep cloaking is worthwhile to me.

(i need 1 more completion of the mawks LM to get my morpher to max so i'm just lining up my ducks in order in advance)

Fine. If we can assume someone is willing to buy the Ravyn upgrade thing, then they're willing to upgrade Thraccti as well.
Note: you will need at least mark 2
If it's mark 2, use 6 tributes to get to 360
Mark 3: use 8 to get to 560
Mark 4: 7 gets you to 560
Mark 5: 4 gets you to 360
Mark 6: not on the wiki so idk
