Rocket Pack on Villain Side
You get the "jump pack' by doing a bank mission (Atlas Park) levels 5 through 9. You get the "rocket pack" by doing a bank mission (King's Row) levels 10 through 14.
You get access to these missions by doing newspaper missions until the bank mission option opens up.
I assume you were on a team when you completed the 1st bank mission. Either get on a team that is doing the (King's Row) bank mission or go to Port Oakes & see your contact for the access to newspaper missions.
Hope This Helps!!
Well you have 2 choices.
1. You can try to get someone under lvl 10 to get the atlas park mayhem mission.
2. Run the Marshal Brass missions he has the mission to get the goldbrickers jetpack
P.S. also like to add you can always go to Grandville there is a jetpack dealer that will sell you one unless they moved them.

There is a third option for redside. Simply make your way to Grandville and purchase your shiney new Arachnos issued jetpack from the vendor under the statue of our glorious leader for 10,000 inf.

Marshall Brass is another Great alternative later on. If you complete his missions you will get a 2nd "rocket pack". 3 modes of travel.
You can go to Grandville & purchase a "rocket pack" from the Quartermaster. It will cost 10,000 infamy. Not sure if it's available to lowbies.
EDIT!!! Thanks for the later post! Just realized that the above IS backwards. But everything else still applies. I just got off work. Anyhow.

Or you could skip that and visit the jetpack vendor in Grandville (if you can survive the trip) who will sell you an identical raptor pack for 10,000 infamy.
There's also a different jetpack (only 90 minutes of flight time, and it looks different, but otherwise identical) you can get by running a mission handed out by Marshal Brass in Cap au Diable (a level 15-19 contact, so you'd have to level up a bit, but it's not too long, and you've already got the zero-G pack to use until then).
FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.
Or, if you don't want to spend 10k inf and have other characters you play, you can just log out in Grandville for the day job and get one for free.

So to revisit the options...
1: Team with someone running a level 5-9 atlas park mayhem mission
2: Run the marshal Brass mission in Cap that awards a temp Goldbricker pack
3: Go to Grandville and spend 10,000 inf at the raptor pack vendor
4: Log out in Grandville for a few days and get the dayjob temp raptor pack
5: Log on to the NCSoft store and spend $4.99 for the temp jetpack for a month (I consider this a silly option, but it's still an option)

The flight pack is given out for the level 5-9 Mayhem mission. the jump pack is given out for the level 10-14 mayhem missions.
There I was between a rock and a hard place. Then I thought, "What am I doing on this side of the rock?"
The raptor pack (flight) is awarded for successfully robbing the Atlas Park bank (level 5-10), and the zero-G pack (jumping) is awarded for robbing the King's Row bank (level 10-15). There's some overlap there, so if you're exactly level 10, you've got a 50/50 shot of getting either when you talk to your broker...

Plus, if you already, by Level 14, have either Hover, or Air Superiority, at Level 14, not Level 16, you can get the Fly Power.

Hint: You can guarantee you get the Goldbricker Rocket Pack mission as the first mission from Brass if you go to Seer Marino first and get the Talk to Bloody Bay Liason mission from her (at level 15). After doing that you can forgo the rest of her missions and go to Brass. Assuming this is the first time you have talked to him as a contact, the Goldbricker Rocket Pack mission will be the first mission he gives.
If you get the Talk to Seer Marino mission or Talk to Bloody Bay Liason mission from Brass you may have to wade through his entire first arc before he gives you the Goldbricker mission.
Even if you do go ahead and buy a Raptor Pack from the vendor at Grandy's, you still may want to get the Atlas Mayhem under your belt anyway at some point in your career, since the exploration badge inside is needed for an accolade (the villain equivalent of Geas of the Kind Ones, if I remember right).

I believe you're referring to the Invader Badge (http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Invader_Badge), which is really an accolade that gives you +5% to your max health. Unlike the blue-side equivalent (http://paragonwiki.com/wiki/Stouthearted_Badge), actually a very handy accolade power indeed!

There I was between a rock and a hard place. Then I thought, "What am I doing on this side of the rock?"
Having just tried several of these methods, I highly recommend going to Grandville and buying a pack.
If you get the one from an early bank mission, great. I did that mission and didn't receive it (though others on my team did - our only guess was that I had outleveled the reward?), so wanted to try another way. For a newcomer without Fly, the Redside maps can be extremely frustrating, as there are many places that require skirting vertical obstacles.

Someone new to the zone may have a hard time finding Seer Marino (by using Paragon Wiki and /loc, I could get close, but again there was a vertical height difference between us. I knew she was below me, but didn't know how to get there.. all the more frustrating when you're doing this to get a vertical travel power).
Once you do, you'll find the Paragon Wiki coordinates for Marshall Brass are incorrect (the Z coordinate should be positive). But even then, he won't talk to you, as you need to talk to another contact first. More running around, only to find that she won't talk to you, either: you need Newspaper missions to start.
I had avoided going to Grandville because I expected high-level mobs to spank me. There aren't any between the Ferry and the Jetpack master, and you can earn 10,000 Infamy a lot faster than you can go through the Marshall Brass line.
Just go buy one.

As far as I know there's no out leveling as far as the bank missions temp powers go, as long as you haven't gotten it before and are above the minimum level, you should get it.

HOWEVER, if you are 'combat' level 5, and not 'threat/security' level 5 (i.e., HAVE NOT trained up yet), you DO NOT count as level 5, you count as whatever threat/security level you are trained up to. A level 4 with a pocket level untrained is counted as a level 4 for safeguard/mayhem rewards.

Since Contacts treat you as your combat level, I didn't expect the rewards to be dependent on training.
On the general topic of this Thread, it's worth recommending that newcomers either get their pack in Grandville or pick Fly as a travel power. The alternative methods require specific steps that are easier to follow if you've already done them once, or are going with someone who knows.
The Villain side requires more knowledge from experience and a great deal more vertical travel than on early Hero side maps. Movement within zones is harder - there are more dead-ends, more barrier walls, elevators, and fortresses - and travel between zones is fragmented by multiple (unmarked) routes.
Player-shared knowledge is weaker on the Redside, too, which makes it harder to figure out where you're going. The incorrectly listed location for Marshall Bass on ParagonWiki is just one example.
Imagine as a new player trying to figure out where you can go from Atlas Park by looking at this map. The list at the bottom makes it clear both where you can go and how to get there.
Now compare it to the map of Mercy Island from the same site. Where can you go? Beats me.
I'm still having a great time Redside, but getting around is much, much easier once you already know the layout.
Until then, make sure you can Fly.
Question: Where in the early stages is the contact or mish for the Jet/Rocket Pack? I am currently at level 10 and I already have the Jump Pack but would really like the Jet/Rocket Pack before I can get my flight power at I believe level 16. It seems every time on my past villain builds when I already have my flight power past level 16 I get the mish for the Jet/Rocket Pack, thus, I can never really use it since I have my flight power. So having this now at level 10 would be ideal. Thanks in advance to those who reply
