Implants
Just like weapons and armor, the quality of a soldier's implants is a very
serious factor in determining how effective the soldier is in battle. In
fact, without good implants a soldiers highest level of nanos and weaponry
would be out of his reach.

Implants (Shadowlands)
Focuses:
Being a combat class, the soldiers implants obviously tend to focus on offence,
defence and health. The more the soldier, or any other profession, can get
these areas up the better. Generally soldiers put in assault rifle, health,
and as many evade clusters as they possible can into their implant setups.
Higher level soldiers also benefit from the new refined/jobe clusters that
boost offensive and defensive modifiers. The more Ranged Init a soldier can
get in the better as well.
To obtain the use of TMS Mk10 and RRFE soldiers always implant a Shining
Matter Creation cluster (faded/bright MC/TS clusters are needed for atrox
soldiers) and to squeeze in OS you'll find a lot of soldier implant layouts
include the faded Psycho Mod and Sensory Imp clusters as well. Until Tlvl6
has been reached, a faded R-Hand treatment cluster to help put in fully ql200
implants is also quite common.
A thing to keep in mind when making your implants though is that while they
may be in game, some Jobe/Refined implants can not be made due to too high
of requirements (Usually the shining clusters).
Setup:
Here is a quick look, implant by implant, of what soldiers commonly use for
implants with some comments on cluster options. I'll try to focus on AR/RE
since the majority of soldiers use that through most of their lives. These
are only common setups, be sure to use ones that work well for you.
Obviously I am not going to list ever single skill, just the most commonly
used ones in each specific implant location. If one thing, say Burst,
isn't listed in a slot its because there are other things that happen
to WAY out weigh burst in that location.
I've split example up into "Normal" and "Refined" setups. "Normal"
being used to describe implants with normal clusters and "Refined" to refer
to refined implants with the newer Refined/Jobe clusters. "Other" refers
to other clusters that you may find as useful clusters depending on your
situation.
For now i'll assume by the time you can put on refined implants
that you've switched to a 100% Assault Rifle weapon.

Shadowlands and Artillery Implants:
Once you make it into the Shadowlands you'll have the opportunity to find
or trade for some Artillery Implants. Artillery Implants are a special set
of symbiants which you use just like implants. They come equipped with
set stats which are usuable by a veriaty of professions. Unlike normal implants
though, they add many different stats and in large quantities. Most of them
are vastly superior to any other of the high level implants you could make
yourself the traditional way. The only real downside is the high requirements.
They can be found off mobs from levels 1 all the way up to 300, but can not
be made via tradeskills.
Your breed choice will limit you to what ql you can wear since each implants
requires 3 abilities in vast ammount. Stats shown are for ql 300 implants
and scale down normally all the way to ql 1.All of these implants are also
