Was curious about the new implants and their actual effects? If you have an implant "set" in already and put the two new ones in, (the CA-1 and CA-2) do they only give their set effects for each other, or do they give their bonus to the other set as well?

And when you plug them both in, what is the overall bonus total (specifically to CPU) ?

Thanks

Wouldn't plugging them in effectively break another set bonus by taking up the same slots?

I don't always post on the forums, but when I do, I post with my main.

"Set Effects" are for Sets. So mixing two sets won't give you Set Effects for either. Seems logical.

Are these a good idea to install? What if you already have implants installed, will you have to remove them? What if they are very expensive is it worth it?

Putting in a new implant requires scrapping whatever you had in the slot. This is true of any implant and is part of the reason why people keep jump clones around with very different implant sets.

Whether the Genolution set is worth it to you I have no idea. The bonuses are significant if that's what you're asking. I have no doubt that they enable fits not otherwise possible, though I haven't worked them out for myself. Perhaps more relevantly, they also allow pilots to get by without a few skills here and there. I suspect this is the more important point.

If you want to use them but have expensive implants just jumpclone to a fresh clone and put them in that. I have a few clones with different implant sets in for different purposes

They seem tailor made for new characters looking to run missions and/or join in faction warfare while their skill points catch up.

With the set they get double 50% bonuses making it 3.375% for all.
