can you put an anti-decay kit on it.-no

The jetpack is a landspeeder with a different animation, that's all.

A really expensive, PITA-to-get landspeeder.

What he said^
Dont bother wasting your time and money getting one, their pointless and have no extra function than a landspeeder.
I wish they had made them kinda like the jetpacks in battlefront or tribes, where they are attached to your pack all the time (so they cant be attacked or destroyed) and you just toggle them on or off andthey have limited "fuel" which has to recharge after every thrust.

I think the Jet packs look like those old comm-phones from worldwar two that the squad leaders used to phone each other with. I'd just get one so I could sell it

I always hated the fact that the Jetpacks in the game are so fragile. Then I thought, well thats accurate.
Jango vs. Obi Wan ---- Jetback malfunction results in nearly falling into ocean
Jango vs.Windu-------- Jetpack malfunction results in death by Windu's saber
Boba vs. Han Solo----- Jetpack malfunction results in falling into Sarlack Pit
No more Jetpack for me thanks.

I think they should be un-targetable and cant bedestroyed or decayed. You put so much work into getting them when you cant even use them in combat. They either need to make them very easy to get (about the same price as a bomb droid) and able to be attacked and destroyed, or keep them like they are now but make it so they are un-targetable, cant be destroyed, or decayed.

I was originally kidding, but since this turned into a JETPACK REVAMP session.
I put an idea on the BH Revamp Post with this idea.
Granted the current jetpacks are too fragile but flying is fun, but do to effort not worth losing in combat.
MBH should be able to wear a jetpack constructed by a Tailor (using currentbh backpack model) Shipwright and Armorsmith (finalizing project) This pack would be able to hold items as normal. The pack cannot be targetted but does have a decay which is reduced by use and taking damage to body. The function is to be able to increase running spead equivelant to Force run by utilizing a thruster capability (it does not fly) when thruster reaches 0, jetpack has a cooldown where thrust regenerates. If decay reaches 0 jetpack no longer functions other than a backpack so inventory is not lost. Jetpacks are not repairable in order to keep craftsman in business.
OriginalBH Jetpack remains in the game for people that like to fly.
Just a thought since Forcerun is a pain in the butt.
