Alright, so now when we've seen the DF NiM Mount (Wings of the Architect) that looks like the rocket boosts with extra rockets, then I'd love to see a jetpack mount of the same sort! Instead of the arms it could be a jetpack, would've been awesome!

Yeah, I see your point! But if you play as Merc DPS, you'll see how worthless that class is in PvP. I actully do hope they fix the class to be more PvP friendly.

So they added this new abilty for the Sith Assassin called "Phase Walk" http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Is8vJAiOEM where you can teleport to a set location. So I've been thinking, why can't they add a simular ability for the Bounty Hunter Mercenary? How it could work: You set a location, and if you stay 60 meters from that location you could "jump" back to that location with the jet pack, like a jump-pack. Since the jetpack isn't really used in this game (other than the Death from above AOE attack) I think they could add more stuff with the jetpack, stuff like this. A mobilty buff for both the Mercenary and the Commando. The Commando could use a a grapple of some sort? Mercenary - Rocket Retreat Commando - Grappling Escape These are names that could fit the abilities and their purposes. Please BioWare, we all know that Mercenaries are hopeless in PvP, please add something like this.

Oh, okay! I see

Though this thread is about something else! This is about the Mercenaries and the Commandos, about an mobility buff for them to escape tight situations (in PvP for example). Please, check the YouTube link that I have in the first message in this thread. An ability like that in the video but instead with a JetPack for the Mercenaries and a Grapple for the Commandos.

Yeah, we've been talking about the Trooper version of this ability. We came up with a grapple. So you can grapple yourself to a set point. But these abilties should mainly be for Mercenary/Commando since we are pretty often stuck in tight PvP situations where we need some kind of escape ability, a mobility buff.

Didn't think about that, but yeah! That's how they made it with the Force Leap Ability. I really really hope they'll ake this possible. And I hope you guys maybe could spread the word about this kind of ability! Is there any forum for suggestions or so?

I've been thinking about the animation as well. As you say, if there is an object in the way it could be tricky to animate. I think it could still be very usefull if you stay in a straight line from the set location.

Yes, but the thing we're talking about is a mobility buff where you can jump to a set location. Not only to an enemy! Please check the YouTube link that I have in the thread (at the top)

That sounds awesome, good names and good abilities for the classes! To me, it sounds like they could put it in the game, I really hope they will! Atleast some more abilities with the Jetpack! Also, Mercenaries/Commandos often comes in tight PvP situations, so an ability like this would be really good! And it seriously is needed.

Exactly! And Mercenaries pretty often comes in tight PvP situations, so they could need an abilite like this.

I think this ability would be more like an escape thing, you know? And about the Commandos, maybe something like a grapple where you can grapple yourself to a set location? But I got to admit, with the big cannon, stuff would look silly. xD But still, it would be nice (my opinion)

Something similar! I mean, troopers do use jump-packs in series, movies ect.
