I have noticed you can install clones in lower rep stations by jumping. I a Caldari pilot have terrable standings with Gally. -3.9 almost KOS. I was in there space and wanted to get back to my mission hub so I gave jumping a try. Even though I was hated and not allowed to install a jump clone I was allowed to make the jump and leave my body behind as a jump clone. From there I created a new jumpclone in the station to replace the one I just jumped into. So this way I was able to instale a jump clone without having the reputation required to actully instale one.

Jut FYI

FYI, I covered that in my post above. Roll Quoting the relevant part:

All stations have clone vats that any capsuler can use, but only stations with medical facilities can create clones (for this premium service they require 8.0 personal or corporate standing, as they don't want to create clones for their enemies).


So you did, but it can also read that you can place your med clone at any station but need 8.0 to place a jump clone. I just clarify it is possable to leave a jump clone behind in said stations as well withut the faction.

This is a good example how CCP use inapproapiate words to describe what should be pretty simple stuff leading to confusion when players try to elaborate on that description without fully understanding what they are talking about.

It takes a +8.0 standing to "Create" a new jump clone. CCP use the words "Install a JC" rather than create one.

When you are jumping between two clones you are not creating a new clone, but it is quite logical to assume you are "installing a clone" at the station you jumped out from. This is not how CCP meant the word to be used.

You do not need any standing or even medical facilites at a station where you leave a clone, via jumping to another clone.
