Ok, so, planning on getting a Jenner sometime soon. Big question is, does having multiple jump jets effect your jump capabilities, and if so, how much? Thanks guys.

Yes. Quite a bit. It's completely worth it to run 5 now.

Yes, one jumpjet basically is worthless, you will want to invest in your maximum jump power (or close to it)

Depends on what you want. If you're just trying to hop up short ledges or cross ravines, one or two jets can be sufficient. I did decently with a 2-jet Catapult.

If you want to get up high, or cross longer distances, go for the full set.

It depends on the builds I'm looking at. On one it's gonna be pretty much to negate fall damage to legs, so I'll likely only have one unless have extra room, for some reason. Others will prob have a bunch. Is the max 5?

different chassis have different max number of jets

While I can't give you an exact number, I can definitely say that more JJ = more thrust.

1 JJ is fine to use as a parachute, skim over gaps and rocky areas or for quick-turning.

Since the fixes/update/changes to improve JJs, I find it worth maxing them out if the chassis is jump-capable
