Im sure this has been asked but i need to make sure i didnt get this wrong from reading around


Can alpha accounts have jump clones?

Example: someone with alpha account installs a jump clone in null at a citadel. Can he then jump between his jump clone in null and his main clone in high sec?

Alphas can install one jump clown.

If you take all the sand out of the box, only the cat poo will remain.

You will need to train Infomorph Psychology skill in the Neural Enhancement group. Alphas can train this skill to level 1

This really begs the question what happens when you have several jump clones and then your omega account goes alpha? Do you loose the other JCs or do you only get to use one of them and how is it decided which one?

My guess would be that you only have access to one of them I'd be curious to know which one however.

I've read about that in the CCP post about alpha accounts and if im not mistaken you can use all of your jump clones that you had when you were omega ... but i may be wrong

Infomorph Psychology limits how many clones can be installed, not the ability to jump to any of the clones once every 24 hrs. And the skill doesn't get removed, just disabled, for Alphas.

So my guess is you keep the clones and can jump to any of them that you wish, but can't install more. And if you destroy any clones, you can't install replacements because the skill limits you to only being able to install up to 1. So if you have 3 and you destroy 1, you now have 2 and can't get the third back.

Also, the skill that reduces the delay to less than 24 hrs. is disabled, so no early jumping.

You can use all installed JCs

One of my old chars had 5 and can jump to every single one, even as alpha Cool

I had eight clones installed on various planets with Omega account. Now after a few months I'm an Alpha. Trying to jump to one of the clones, they want me to pay 900k ISK to "install" it. I already paid when it was created, now they want another payment?

That's the standard cost, regardless of whether or not you are an alpha or an omega. The cost was introduced early last year IIRC, before the introduction of clone states.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Oh geez, not another one of these threads making guesses ...

Jump Clone

  • Alpha clones can install only one jump clone, but can jump between the ones the character already had during an Omega clone status.
  • Jump clones located in a clone vat bay of a ship owned by a lapsed Omega clones ship are unaffected, but in order to activate the clone vat bay, skills only available in Omega state are required.


There. OCD sated.
