So a friend of mine told i can make a jump clone and switch once per day between them. My question is this:
If my Normal clone has +3 implants and a remap to boost memory. Will my jumpl clone have the same atributes or the remaps and the atributes are different ?
so to elaborate:
1st clone +3 implants and remap(2 remaps remaining) for memory
2clone implants? and ramaps ?(? remaps remaining)

Your remap will be the same in both clones, your implants will stay in the clone you plugged them into and you wont have them until you switch back into it. So in your words:

1st clone +3 implants and remap(2 remaps remaining) for memory
2clone no implants and ramaps (2 remaps remaining) for memory

In reality the big advantage of jump clones is not the fast travel (an intie will give you that) it is this ability to swap implants.

This means you can have a station clone for example with expensive learning implants that you never undock with and use when you are logged off for long periods and a separate "cheap" clone for PvP.

It also allows you to customise your clones for particular ships. My mission alt for example mainly flies a Rattlesnake but has a Domi for SOE mission at Lanngis where you mainly shoot at Angels which die in droves to Bouncers.

The two ships need quite different implants, the Rattler needs a CPU implant for example while my Domi needs more targeting range. With Jump Clones there is no need to compromise when I jump to the clone that has the relevant ship i automatically acquire the right implants for that ship.


EDIT:

Note with multiple jump clones it is not necessary to give all your jump clones all five learning implants. You can just give a particular jump clone two implants and change your skill currently in training to match the two learning implants in the current clone when you jump.

Just to be clear that is not 4 total remaps, the remaps are shared, yes.

The remaps are per character, not clone.

In fact, to be even more clear: the only thing that is “per clone” is implants. Everything else is just “you”, cloned, shared across all incarnations.




And to slightly re-complicate matters, this actually holds true for both types of clones — switching jump clones means that you leave your old implants behind (but you can get them back by jumping back into that old body), and “switching” medical clones means that you… perhaps not so much leave your implants behind as have them be blown up along with the old body.
