The main impetus behind the items is for that time when you just can't find Feline Grace anywhere around and you *really* wanna get that implant in *now* - Not combat. =)
(ps: just for those curious, the new flag on the items checks that your character has enough free NCU to cast the buff on yourself prior to using the item - helps to make sure that people don't accidentally waste a charge when they don't have enough NCU to actually land it)
