According to SWG Wiki, jetpacks should have the same speed as BARCs, Sith Speeders, and some others. Some live-action testing shows that on Evolve the jetpacks are slacking. Several times while hunting the target increases distance while they're on a BARC speeder. Or just fartin' around in the TK instance, they're always faster.

I don't know what the values are currently set to but jetpacks are noticeably slower.

Oh for sure, they are like super hard to make right? They should be comparable in speed as anything else. (Except maybe a pod racer)

Per SWG Wiki, the fastest speed value that shows is 4. Podracers are also as 4 with Jetpacks, BARCs and some other exotic vehicles.
Jetpacks are very, if not extremely, hard to obtain. There are only two on Evolve Live currently. The DWB Jetpack (Boba-Fett skin) and the Merr-Son Jetpack (Jango Fett). Boba Fett's takes parts parts from the DWB and Blacksun NPCs on Yavin to craft. Jango Fett's Jetpack is available by purchasing the 4-piece combination from the BH vendor for 400 BH tokens.

There is a third one in the code but I don't think it's live on Evolve right now. And I also forget the name/how to obtain that one. It looks like a steampunk skin.

All I need is that darn base .

Also for those newer, this difference is because we did increase the speeds of the normal Barcs. However the factional command BARCs are still the fastest speeders in the game.

Awesome! Will Jetpacks be up to par with normal BARCs or Command BARCs whenever implemented?

This is included with the next TC Patch. up to par with normal barcs. Command Barcs will still have an edge.
