Using Your Boost Pack in Starfield

To utilize a Boost Pack effectively in Starfield, follow these steps:

  1. Unlock the Boost Pack Training Skill: Before you can use a Boost Pack, you must unlock the Boost Pack Training skill. You can find this skill under the Tech tree. However, certain character classes, such as the Bounty Hunter and Soldier, come with Boost Pack Training skills unlocked by default. This means you can use Boost Packs without needing to spend Skill Points.

  2. Equip Your Boost Pack: Once you've unlocked the skill, equip a Boost Pack to your character.

  3. Mid-Air Gliding: To activate the Boost Pack, jump into the air and press the jump button while in mid-air. This action initiates the Boost Pack's propulsion, allowing you to glide through the air. Keep in mind that upgrading your Boost Pack Training skill and finding better Boost Packs in the game's overworld can enhance your overall performance.
