How to Upgrade the Jetpack

Begin by following Adam's trail to Bastion during the 6th Power group of main missions (Bastion will be your base of operations). Look to the right of the staircase before you go up the stairs to talk to Adam and advance the quest. Against the wall you will see a Jetpack Bench that you can use for all your upgrades. Unlike other skills from teachers in Elex II the 25 Intelligence will never increase, and it will be enough to upgrade all 6 upgradeable parts of the Jetpack which are listed below.
