Low-tier implant acquisition

However, despite this scarcity, there are specific places where the user can look in order to maximize their chances of a successful acquisition.

  • Due to Lone Aristocrat/Sandbox/acquisition section drafting being considered a low-tier implant, the following sources provide the greatest odds of finding a copy:
    • The Rusted Archway contains 2 becoming nooks each with 1-2 implants taken from the tier 2 cybernetics drop table.

Mid-tier implant acquisition

An im license points to install and are most commonly found in mid and high-tier zones, though unlike low-tier implants are available

High-tier implant acquisition

Alternative Method

  • Alternatively, if the user would rather guarantee eventual access to a copy of Lone Aristocrat/Sandbox/acquisition section drafting, they can take the following action:
    • Under normal circumstances, the guaranteed gutsmonger present at the Six Day Stilt only provides a restocking inventory of 6-8 implants taken from the cybernetics 1 drop table. However, gutsmongers, unlike most other merchants, adjust the tier of their wares to correspond with whatever zone they are currently standing within. This essentially means, that if the user were to make a gutsmonger a follower, such as by using the Proselytize skill or a love injector, the user could then transport said gutsmonger to a mid-tier location such as Ezra, in order to have access to a permanent and restocking source of mid-tier implants.
    • The newly transported gutsmonger can then be cloned with a rebuked cloneling in order to massively increase the number of cybernetics available each restock. Allowing the user with enough dedicated farms to eventually obtain any implant of any tier.
