Scanning implants and Skill Hardwiring

Probing is a real profession in EVE, and many operations need pilots that are good at scanning. If you want to commit to this or just want to have a perfect scanning clone, you might want to have a look at the specialized implants:

If you get the complete "Virtue" set of implants there are low-grade and mid-grade sets. Be prepared to pay a lot of ISK.

Using the Virtue set benefits you if you are also using a Sisters Probe launcher and Sisters Combat or Core Probes as well.The Sisters launchers are 5% better than the Tech II versions and the Sisters probes are 10% better. The RSS probes give you 1.2% more scan strength but cost a lot.



One more thing of note:

The Covert Ops at level 5 (50%) does better at scanning in an Astero or Stratios (37.5%) but is equal to the Nestor at (50%).

I have my own ideal setup and would love to hear everyone else's thoughts on this topic. I have had lots of success and scan down dozens of sites daily. Am I missing anything? If so, please leave something in the comments below.
