v1.0
Finally went and updated the damn thing. Everything's new and different! Whee!
I'm in the process on rewriting some of the class comments. So some classes
will missing some. I also removed the builds section since it was just biased
garbage. Besides FFTA2 is about getting clever and thinking up your own builds,
right!?
v0.8
Been some time, huh?
New builds, a few rewrites plus some skill name fixes. Still need to get those
bloody Seeq skill names done though.
v0.7b
Bunch of stuff, mainly name fixes and a few new builds.
v0.7a
Blue Mage and White Mage comments are here.
v0.7
Chocobo Knights are the best. Check out the superior build I used to replace
the awful old two. Nothing can compare.
I think I did some other things as well besides fixing up those awesome Choco
Knights. Go find them on your own ==;
v0.6
Some skill name fixes and another build.
I need to get around to changing all the S abilities to P abilities. I have to
question why Square changed that (Along with removing the messages from after
battle and replacing them with quest reports... but thats irrelavent)
Oh yeah, Beastmaster is finally up.
v0.5
MOAR BUILDS!!!1
Plus a fix with the blue magick list and uh... a lot of things. Just read
through and spot them!
v0.4
All quest names are English now. Sky Pirate and Agent is up too. Also
1st build is ready.
v0.3
Some more English names also Adelle and Penelo's special class is up now.
v0.2
The English version changed more names than I thought. Oh well have some
English names. I'll try fix up the rest when my laziness doesn't continue to
plague my mind.
Also Summoners don't get Half HP and Nu Mou's DO get Blood Price. I'll need to
look into how Viera get Half MP and its probably a good guess Arcanists have
Blood Price.
v0.1
First version, very imcomplete but has most details. AP costs need to be
checked, MP costs need to be added, AOE as well.
Also comments need to be done for every job and Builds and Special jobs need
to be done at some point too. Finally I need to get the proper english names.
This will probably be done once my English copy arrives.

A decent class early game. Their stat growth is reasonably well balanced.
However once the advanced classes appear, it gets outclassed by them. It
does have some nice abilities though, the Rends in particular are fantastic.

are
pretty average.

- Comments -
The one class that got nerfed from FFTA for no good reason. Having lost
Protect and Shell, White Mages are now nothing more than healbots. Still,
their healing spells are quite useful to have around. And they're one of the
few classes capable of reviving fallen allies.

- Comments -
With monsters being a lot more common in the world of FFTA2, Black Mages
can have a lot more fun exploiting thier elemental weaknesses. Much like FFT,
their magic stat is amongst the highest in game. Paired up with Geomancy, you're
looking at some impressive magic damage. As per usual, they have defenses
of paper so be sure to keep them in the back lines.

with
the more advanced classes showing up.

- Comments -
With strong stats in all areas and an amazing equipment selection, Paladins
can be quite powerful, especially when paired with the abilities from other
classes. As a stand-alone class they have a lot of defensive abilities. Allowing
them take plenty of punishment. They still have Holy Blade however its damage
isn't as impressive as it was back in FFTA.

You wouldn't think it, but the Fighter is quite versatile. Being able to inflict
both melee and ranged damage. Their attack power is quite strong as well.
They are however, somewhat lacking in defense due to their inability to equip
heavy armor.

With the elemental slashes, Parivir can be quite devastating when they target
an elemental weakness. Paired up with Geomancy, you're looking at some very
impressive damage. However despite being called Yojimbo in the Japanese
version, their defense is quite poor.

- Comments -
With their combination of speed and power, Ninjas still continue the trend of
being one of the most powerful classes in Final Fantasy. They're also capable
of casting spells, but their damage is quite lacking. To make up for it though
they come with debuffs, allowing you to hinder the enemy's advance. They have
the valauble Dual Wield ability which allows for some impressive damage
potential.

Their spells will hit all enemies regardless of their position, so keeping them
safe from enemy attacks is relatively easy. To compensate though, their
damage is quite lacking and the cost for the spells is very high. But by far,
their
biggest weakness is their low speed.

- Comments -
A personal favorite. Blue Mages have many useful and varied abilities. In order
to
actually learn them though, you need to be targetted by them when an enemy is
using them. As a result they can be difficult to accquire. Having a Beastmaster
around will make learning their abilites is much easier and is essential for
the ones
that grant positive effects. For Cornered and Roulette, you'll need to have
Reraise
status when hit by them in order to actually learn them.

- Comments -
Hunters are basically Archer upgrades. Their abilties are mainly focused at
dispatching monsters. Sidewinder is deadly when used on a monster unit and
can make fighting them much easier. Hunters also have access to the Ultima
skill for Humes and Gria. On a Hunter its ranged which makes it quite fearsome.
However with that 32MP cost, you won't be using it often unless your character
is set up with ways to reduce that cost.

Oddly enough, they're not White Mage upgrades this time. The Seer's main
ability is Magick Frenzy. A fun skill which allows you to follow up the spells
you cast with a regular attack. This allows for some interesting combinations.
This ability not only works with the Seer's spells but also the White Mage's,
Blue Mage's (Only Quake though), Black Mage's and Illusionist's spells.
Seers are also notable for their high magic resistance growth which, may or
may not be useful to you.

of paper so be sure to keep them in the back lines.

Like the Fighter their abilities are quite versatile. Being able to attack at
both
melee and range. These guys take the step further though and even have ways
to reduce damage and heal allies. Even better, this class has the Moogle's
Ultima
skill. However because Moogles lack any abilties to manipulate MP costs, you
won't be able to use it as often as the other races unless you have a way to
restore MP.

- Comments -
Fusiliers are capable of using guns which have one of the largest attack ranges
in the game. Not only can they can attack from a distance, Fusiliers also have
some very useful debuff skills though from my experience, they're not as
effective as they were in FFTA. Finally Moogles also have a method of taking
advantage of elemental weaknesses. Unfortunately the high attack power guns
from FFTA are absent. A very strange design choice. This severely limits
their damage potential.

An agile class that sports a variety of unique buffs and debuffs. Whilst they're
not as useful as they were in FFTA due to the nerf of the Concentration skill,
their skills still serve as a good secondary command for almost every Moogle
class. In particular, Smile Toss is one of the best abilities in the game. As
Quickening an ally provides many tactical advantages.

The Time Mage has some of the best buffs and debuffs. In particular Haste and
Slow. Having your turns come up quicker than enemies gives you a huge
advantage over them. They also have Stop which is qpossibly the most
devastating debuff in the game. As a stopped ally cannot avoid any attacks.
This includes stealing as well! As one can expect though, their defense
forces them to remain in the rear.

In order to actually use this class' abilities you first need to mount a
chocobo.
This can be done in a battle. Lower an enemy's chocobo to critical health and
the have the Chocobo Knight move next to it. Select the mount command
and it'll be yours to keep. There's several problems with this class however.
For
one, your abilities are limited to the chocobo's. Secondly, whilst on a chocobo
you will be become weak to Water, Lightning and Holy attacks. They are very
fast however and have a wide weapon selection.

A more support orientated version of the Fusilier. In particular they have the
ability to restore MP. However they must use Prime first before using any
of their other skills. This does cause a few problems since it makes them a very
slow class to use.

their healing spells are quite useful to have around. And they're one of the
few classes capable of reviving fallen allies.

If you're going to use a Blue Mage you'll need this job since it helps make
enemies actually use the spell on your character with Learning. Outside that
though they're pretty much another gimmick class and are overall not very
useful.

- Comments -
The Time Mage has some of the best buffs and debuffs. In particular Haste and
Slow. Having your turns come up quicker than enemies gives you a huge
advantage over them. They also have Stop which is quite possibly the most
devastating debuff in the game. As a stopped ally cannot avoid any attacks.
This includes stealing as well! As one can expect though, their defense
forces them to remain in the rear.

- Comments -
Their spells will hit all enemies regardless of their position, so keeping them
safe from enemy attacks is relatively easy. To compensate though, their
damage is quite lacking and the cost for the spells is very high. But by far,
their
biggest weakness is their low speed.

Strangely enough, their stat growth is very similar to the removed Morpher
class. A very odd choice since their abilities are based off your Magic Power
stat.
As for their abilities they're quite similar to the Illusionist's. The
difference being
that they can affect your allies as well. This might sound like a problem at
first
but it actually has an advantage. With the right equipment, you can heal your
allies with them.

- Comments -
The one class that got nerfed from FFTA for no good reason. Having lost
Protect and Shell, White Mages are now nothing more than healbots. Still,
their healing spells are quite useful to have around. And they're one of the
few classes capable of reviving fallen allies.

Their stats are terrible but they actually perform quite well in combat,
especially
in the early parts of the game. Later on though they'll start to fall behind
with
the more advanced classes showing up.

Red Mages have some fairly high offensive stats. They also have Doublecast, one
of the game's most powerful abilities. MP can be quite a concern with this
ability
however, but there's ways to work around it.

- Comments -
Their stat growth is passable. Being well rounded in all areas Their main
selling
point is their abilities. Blood Price is an amazing ability to put on a caster,
as it
allows you to get around the game's MP system and use your most powerful
spells on turn 1.
Their Blade Arts are good debuff skills and can work well on a ranged attacker.
Oddly enough they work with Turbo MP and Doublecast as well, allowing for
some impressive damage potential.

Hunters are basically Archer upgrades. Their abilties are mainly focused at
dispatching monsters. Sidewinder is deadly when used on a monster unit and
can make fighting them much easier. Hunters also have access to the Ultima
skill for Humes and Gria. On a Hunter its ranged which makes it quite fearsome.
However with that 32MP cost, you won't be using it often, even moreso since
Gria lack methods to reduce the amount of MP they use.

Accquiring Adelle's Skills
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
The Heritor class' weapons can actually only be accquired from quests. Here's
the rundown. These also the best of their kind too, so even you're not using
Adelle you should get these >_>
--Tiptaptwo
After unlocking the Heritor class read the notice "A Lost Friend" and head to
the Rupie Mountains. Defeat the (Really easy) boss and you'll get this weapon.
--Whale Whisker
Master Viola and then read the notice "Send Help!". Head to Zeldei Forest and
you'll get this weapon. You'll need a potion of any kind however in order for
the event to appear.
--Ayvuir Blue
Master Wermut and then read the notice "Screaming Beauty". Head to Morrabella
and defeat the boss.
--Nagrarok
Master (You guessed it!) Ldja and then read the notice "The Beast of
Aisenfield". Head to Aisenfield (Didn't see that coming!) and defeat the
boss.
--Hyakushiki-masamune
You know the drill. Master Nesiaam and read "The Shrine of the Paling Gods".
Win the battle and you'll get the weapon with the longest name ever.
Oh the battle is in the Fens by the way.
--Chirijaden
Master Elpe. Read new notice. Go to Goug. Beat the really annoying boss.
--Adelaide Skill
After you master Elpe read the new notice and head to Neslowe. You'll need
to defeat all the enemies in order to open the treasure chest and finish the
battle.
Adelle will automatically master it after you win the battle.
