Best Jack Skills | Hero of this story

  • Best Foot Forward

This is the very first skill that extends the duration of Digi-Jacks, an easy pick if you ask me.

  • Just Compensation

The magazine size bonus is nice, but the real buff here is the Grenade Damage bonus, you don’t get much of this from skills. However, the more grenade you have, the lower the damage bonus. Basically you get a big blast for the last grenade.

  • You Have My Shield

  • Jack’s Cache

Another great skill for grenade lover, a little hard to use as you probably don’t throw grenade all the time. Another one point skill, so this is on you.

  • Inspire

If you love Jack so much, you can put one point here. It does nothing, NOTHING at all. I put it here as a tribute for Gearbox Software.

Good survival skill. This enhances both Jack and his Digi-Jacks.

  • Promote the Ranks

This does sound good on paper, but given the Digi-Jacks will eventually die on it’s own, you don’t get the bonus when the rest spawn. There is only a 33% chance for subsequent Digi-Jacks to be a bad-ass. You can spec out of this skill end game.
