Some of the augs are different in Breach. All of these items are available as soon as you have Praxis to spend, and Overclocking isn’t an issue. So, pick the items that you want the most, and beeline for them with your earliest points.
Though it’s hard to farm for credits by grinding missions, it is entirely possible to farm for XP. Repeat fast, simple missions to get your character through the lower levels very quickly. This helps to get you critical augmentations without having to wait very long.

Augmentations cost 1-4 Praxis each. You get Praxis from levels and some kits that you find in packs. These can be found at any level of pack, but they are certainly way more common in higher-end packs.
You’re still slightly limited in which augmentations you can use, even after unlocking everything you need. As you level up, your character gets more memory. That controls how many augmentations you’re allowed to have “equipped” simultaneously. You can unslot any augmentations that aren’t needed to free up memory, and then put things back on later. You never have to re-purchase any of your augmentations, so don’t worry about buying something and then needing to turn it off.
