To use the Boost Pack in Starfield, first, allocate a single skill point to the "Boost Pack Training" skill under the Technology skill tree. Once this skill is unlocked, equip a Boost Pack (such as the Constellation Pack given early in the game). Then, while in mid-air, press the jump button twice: the first jump gets you in the air, and the second jump activates the Boost Pack's thrusters to glide for a short period. The Boost Pack uses fuel that regenerates over time, and you can press the jump button multiple times while you still have fuel to continue gliding. There are four ranks to the Boost Pack Training skill, which improve usage by reducing fuel consumption, increasing fuel regeneration speed, and doubling bonuses at the highest rank. Also, there are different types of Boost Packs (Basic, Power, Skip-Velocity, Balanced) that affect how the boost behaves. In summary:
- Unlock Boost Pack Training skill (requires 1 skill point).
- Equip a Boost Pack.
- Jump, then press jump again mid-air to activate the boost.
- Manage fuel by timing your boosting and let it regenerate.
- Upgrade skill ranks to improve boost efficiency and duration.
This system allows enhanced mid-air mobility, useful for exploration, combat maneuvers, and managing over-encumbrance on planets with varying gravity.
