The jetpack is vaporware

[Bastila Shan]

I was lied to, seeing them flying it way up in the air and killing people and im on lvl2 jetpack now and ive only ever seen short bursts from it that is barely more than a jump.

Unless you have to play 100 hours to level it up enough with all the mods in the workbench to actually replicate the trailer?

The gravitation of the planet/moon is also important. If you put the jetpak on a mont with 0.17G then you fly.

But in a 1.5G world, it's really just a small leap.

Sounds like you haven't invested into the jetpack skill trees. Or wearing a jetpack with (Powerful) Booster Pack mod installed for that matter.

Its almost not worth it. Might as well just a backpack for extra hazard protection.

You need to invest skill points into using it plus you need a pack that isn't some basic crap you found on a dead pirate.

Starfield requires MUCH more focused builds than Skyrim, at least early on. If you want to do elite stuff with a jetpack then you need to go hard into the relevant skill trees.

Also, check your local gravity. If it's too high/low then packs won't function like normal.

Level 4 is decent to get around town and stuff, but yeah, gravity makes a massive difference. I can basically get across some planets without touching the ground if I wanted.. but it's not the fastest.

There are 4 types of Jetpacks too

Use the power boost jet packs.

[Blackfrost]

With all the things the game gets wrong you're worried about the jetpack? :D

But yeah agreed, even if you mod your jetpack and invest in the jetpack skills it sucks.

I had a "small jump" jetpack also, but then not soon later I got another one from a random drop. it was a "power jetpack", a regular one, but it offers one time big jump, really high, and than you wait for it to charge back, there are all sorts of jetpack in game

Lol I have sprained/fracture legs on that power boost not paying attention and coming down with a crunch.

At first I wasn't going to bother with it, I am not great shooter and flying just makes it harder, but now love the things, I carry few in my inventory, skip for travelling, power to get up to places better and I haven't used the 4th kind to test yet.

I am sure once fully modded they can do some things, also saw some assault booster skill but didnt really read it yet.

Is this a serious post?
