ORGANIZATION IV: JOB TRAINING




[The tutorial begins on the party formation screen.]

MASTER DARAVON: The topic is 'Jobs'. Soldiers perform many tasks throughout the battle; they're not just playing with swords. They master special weapons, spells and attacks. They also support allies using spells and items. To perform these duties, soldiers take a 'Job' to improve their skills. For example, 'Chemist' can use recovery items like Potion on the battlefield. 'Archer' uses a bow and attacks enemies long distance. Let me explain what the various Jobs are and how to change them. First, access the Job Status screen. You can get there by pressing the ○ button on the Status Detail screen.

[The status detail screen opens for the first unit in the party, showing Squire and Chemist as available jobs.]

This is the Job Status. In Job Status, you can see the changeable Jobs for the unit. The training level for each Job also appears. You can check the training level with Lv. (Job level).

[A red circle highlights the job level label.]

When you reach the max by increasing Lv. of changeable Jobs, you can get a new Job. For example, if a Squire is 2 or more, it can change into a Knight. To increase Lv., you need to increase the Total Job points.

[A red circle highlights the total job points label.]

When the Total passes Next level, Lv. is raised by 1.

[A red circle highlights the 'Next' label.]

Job points are earned in battle two different ways. One way is to fight in battle and earn the Job points for that Job. Another way is to earn points through your allies. Some points will be added to your JP in the same Job as your ally. Join in battles and take action to gain the Job training level. The Jp (Job point) on the right side shows the

[A red circle highlights the 'JP' label.]

Remaining Jp is what you got from learning an Ability minus what you used. Each and every Job has a unique Ability. You exchange JP to learn Ability skills and spells. Therefore, it's the Jp you have left over from learning an Ability. The difference between Total and Jp is... Total is the grand total of earned Job points and Jp is what remains from learned Ability. That's it for Job Status. Experience as many Jobs possible and increase your Ability! Next, I'll explain how to change Jobs. You'll find 'Job Change' in the Formation Menu.

[The screen shifts back to show the job formation menu and the 'Job' option is highlighted by a red circle. The view then shifts to the job selection screen.]

Select 'Change Job'. Changeable Jobs will appear, around the unit. Like Status Detail, you can switch between units with the L1, R1 buttons.

[Various units are cycled through.]

Select the Job you wish to change with the Directional buttons and press the ○ button. You can't change to Jobs that are darkened. It might be your current Job or a Job that your ally changed to.

[Various jobs are cycled through until the unit is reassigned the job of Chemist.]

That's all for Job Change. If Option 12 'Strongest Equipment at Job Change' is set to OFF, all equipment is canceled. Be sure to equip the unit.

[The screen returns to the party formation screen.]

That's all you need to know about 'Jobs'. Each unit has a function and Jobs make these units unique. Get Job training by joining in battles which increase Jp. You can change to a new Job when the training level maxes. Get as much training as possible with several Jobs. I'm sure you'll become a mighty soldier. That is all.
