Boost Pack Training Skill bugged?

[james.gooey]

I'm Rank 1 in Boost Pack Training with a military background, have the Mantis Pack which includes Basic Boost Pack, but I'm still at number 0 out of 10 for using it in combat. Recently I've been using it almost exclusively in combat, daring it to level, yet the uses of it never increment. Is this bugged or does somebody maybe know what I'm doing wrong?

You have to use the boost in Zero-G combat for that.

Not came across this (havent had the mantis pack specifically tho),
ive leveled up the boostpack skill.

just in case, have u double/tripled boosted in the air during gun fights?
since just a one off jump doesnt trigger it?

(Doesnt have to be zero-g, ive not been in zero g yet and are level 3 on boost skill)

(For me it did. Wasn't able to level up the skill while planetside)

Yeah I've done complete engagements flying the entire time. I guess I'll go to Mars and try it there after that one dude's suggestion.

Really weird. Finally got it incrementing by hunting Ashta

I have my Boost Training Skill at 2, and it stopped counting boost jumps at 18/25. I've swapped out different boost packs as per reddit, and nothing's worked so far. In addition, my compass in the lower left is no longer going red while in combat, meaning it's likely the game no longer thinks I'm ever in combat.

So for the first problem, no combat indicator: Load a prior old save (if you have one) or make a new character to load just before combat starts at the start of the game. This should fix the problem most of the time.

For the second problem where boost pack during combat doesn't count: You have to use boost gauge for it to count, this means if you're being naughty and using tgm (God Mode) you can't progress on it.
