beautiful visage is a moderate cost cybernetic implant which upon installation provides the user with a +2 boost to Ego.
The bonus unlike boosts from equipment and much like the points obtained from leveling count towards the attribute requirements for certain skills. Additionally, the extra ego provides the user with lowered merchant prices and +1 to ego related saves as well as improving the effectiveness of various ego-influenced skills.
Advantages & Disadvantages
Advantages
- Can be used along with
Berate in order to improve the likelihood of recruiting creatures with 
Proselytize. - Can be installed and uninstalled at the user's leisure, allowing for easy temporary installation when looking to benefit from the lowered trading prices.
- Improves the effectiveness of
Intimidate and 
Menacing Stare.
Disadvantages
- Limited utility in combat without specialization or investment into ego skills.
- Can be fully replaced by injecting two
Eaters' nectar injectors and boosting ego, freeing up the faceslot for an implant with effects that cannot be as easily replicated, such as 
custom visage, 
optical multiscanner, 
holographic visage or 
intravenous port. - Moderate cost can be a bit prohibitive depending on the user's license tier and build goals.
Tips
- Having the implant installed effectively provides the user with 6 levels worth of attribute points into ego, meaning that if the user were to find and install beautiful visages such as by moving the zone-tier adjusting
gutsmonger one of which always spawns at the 
Six Day Stilt to a mid-tier location like 
Ezra and then taking advantage of the adjusted wares. The user with enough skill points would then be able to access various skills which require ego an earlier stage than normal. Such skills include:
- Additional ego can synergize well builds which make use of
social coprocessor. Social coprocessor with sufficient compute power can allow the user to recruit multiple creatures with the Proselytize skill, the extra ego can then make the requirement process easier as well as allowing the user's followers to receive higher additional Max 
HP from the 
Inspiring Presence skill.
