Do you have any idea what a Slave set costs? That ISK would be better spent on higher-end modules if you're hell-bent on throwing tons of ISK into this, but solo PvP is usually "person vs. people" |

That ISK would be better spent on higher-end modules if you're hell-bent on throwing tons of ISK into this, but solo PvP is usually "person vs. people" Not really. Losing a ship means losing those expensive mods, but you can just warp your pod out when your ships dies and preserve the Slave set. Admittedly this is a little harder since spamming warp when you are about to die stopped working properly, but the point still stands - implants are harder to lose in lowsec.
Sure, it's more difficult to get podded in lowsec considering that there are no bubbles, but an insta-locking ship could still point you if they're so inclined. |

I have a better chance of keeping implants through multiple engagements, especially if i don't advertise the fact that I have them  .
Believe me, people aren't reluctant to pod you in lowsec, especially if they have access to nullsec where grinding a -10.0 security status to positive just takes a few hours if you know what you're doing.
