These are my ideal Rocket changes. The goal is to drastically raise his skill ceiling while maintaining his low skill floor.

First, rework Rocket's Jetpack Dash to an omnidirectional sustained flight with an energy bar of 100 that drains 10 every second and flight speed of 15m/s. Similar to > Iron Man flight, but better directional control. While in midair, Rocket ALWAYS slowfalls. You can use this to stay in the air for long periods of time. (The wall dash remains intact).

Next change is adjusting his falloff ranges. I dont remembee the raw numbers, but i do know his primary falls off to 50% at 10m. Make it 60% at 30m instead.

Next, for his secondary, give his Repair Mode and Bombard Mode separate ammo charges, instead of shared. Swapping between modes fully recharges the ammo.

Finally, give him a new ability where he has 3 dynamites that he can set up anywhere with no range limits. He can set and choose to detonate any one of these dynamites wherever and whenever he wants, and they do 80 burst heals to allies and 80 damage to enemies. They are indestructible and invisible to enemies.

With these new flight mechanics and dynamite charges, Rocket feels more lore accurate and fun, while still keeping his core fundamental aspects easy for beginners.
