Soldier Implants

[__________Lucid Flow]

How exactly do the Soldiers out there arrange their implants? Could somebody post their setup here so I can see and include the weapon you currently use? I'm trying to figure out the best possible implant setup but I quickly found a lot of clusters clash with each other (Such as Ranged Energy and Matter Creation).

Since my current project is a Soldier, I wanted to see what works for people.

Thanks in Advance.

Here's my rifle weilding soldier implant setup. Using a Catterwaul, but looking for an X-3. These are set up for Agility/Strenght Armor.

If you want to use sense/agi armor then these will change abit. Flowers Tech rocks though and i couldn't give it up.

All the implants use agility or stamina as their required stat now. Happy implanting.




shining bright faded


Head: Matter creation / Ranged initiative / Blank

Chest: Max Health / Imp/proj AC / Strenght

Ear: Blank / Concealment / Intelligence

Eye: Rifle / Intelligence / Time and Space

Left Arm: blank / strenght / Chemical AC

Right Arm: Strenght / Chemical AC / Radiation AC

Left Wrist: Blank / Run Speed / Rifle

Right Wrist: Ranged Initiative / Rifle / Blank (Fling shot)

Leg: Agility / Evade Close Combat / Max Health

Left Hand: Fast Attack / Fire AC / Cold AC

Right Hand: Martial Arts / Matter Creation / Ranged initiative

Waist: Fire or Cold AC / Max Health / Agility

Feet: Evade Close Combat / Agility / Duck Explosions

edit: after playing around abit i found that i could drop the faded sense from the head implant and that makes it use agility instead of int as a req, and if you use Cold or Fire protection in the waist shining AC slot it uses stamina. So if you drop perception from the ear and use fire or cold protect instead of chem from the waist all the implants use agility and stamina as their required stat.

*The above assumes you use a Novaflow, or AR/RE hybrid.

Bio met and Matter met lines aren't worthwhile, and are mainly a fallback when you have tons of ip to spare, so your main focus should be in Psy Mod/Sen imp(up to 285 so you can cast RE mastery with expertise, then you should let that slide for a while as the next buffs are over 400 in skill) Matter crea/T&S for TMS and deflection/reflection shields.

Disclaimer:My implant layout is by no means, the best, or the 'standard layout'. Simply my thoughts. You are of course free to try out different weapon types, such as Rifle, or Shotgun.

If you decide to go with a Custom Heavy Suppressor or River Series 6, you can slide in a Faded SMG in the chest, but the other clusters conflict with Assault Rifle.

This is for a solitus soldier at lvl 154 using a nova flow and a ql 151 flashpoint. I can cast total focus and mirror 8. My attack rating while buffed is 930 or so.

edit - This is with enough points in all my skills to not care what requirement the implants need (as long as it's not psychic). At lower levels you'll have to compromise a bit to get agil based implants when possible, or str/stam)

Question

Some of those implants have a high intel, sense requirnemt. Do you guys raise those attributes to fit those implants in because that seems like alot of ip

At least I do, can't speak for the others here. When you get higher level you'll realize that you don't have much else to spend ips on.

Besides spending IPs on baseabillities is important. If you look at the skill tree and look at for instance the nanoskills they are 80% dependant upon intelligence. A 100% skill you get 1 'free' point pr 4 point of baseabillity you raise. So raise intelligence with 100 and you get 100*0.80 (80% dependant upon intelligence) = 80 / 4 = 20 skill points extra to all nano skills.

At lvl 154 my str/agil/stam/int are all maxed (460ish I think). sense is at 404, and psychic is at 6.

I'll be hitting breed caps soon and once that happens I'll finish raising sense and start with psychic.

But this is only recently, at lower levels you'll have a hard time finding the ip to max your base skills. *shrug*
