Final Fantasy 12: Best jobs for all characters
The job system has been significantly revised in Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age for the PS4 compared to the original PS2 game. We have listed the best jobs for each character in this practical tip for you.
New job system in Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age
In Final Fantasy 12: The Zodiac Age, choosing a job isn't easy for your characters. This is not only the case with the extended job system, because you can choose between 12 license boards. You cannot undo your decision.
- The remake The Zodiac Age is based on "Final Fantasy XII International Zodiac Job System", which was released exclusively in Asia in 2007. You can also unlock a second license board per character in The Zodiac Age, unlike in the template.
- This makes job selection even more complex than in the original game. In addition, all characters have innate abilities that should play a role in your decision.
- Get an overview of the individual license boards. This way you can find out which licenses have already been activated.
Final Fantasy 12: The best jobs for all characters
Below we give you recommendations for each character. This is not the only right decision, but a way of optimally assigning jobs.
- Penelo: For Penelo, the classes of monk, black magician or pikeman are suitable. We recommend the latter because heavy armor gives it an advantage and can deal a lot of damage in close combat.
- Balthier: He plays well as a hunter, red mage or white mage. We recommend the White Mage, as his strength value favors attacks with the staff, he can heal and is useful in between with the "steal" ability.
- Vaan: He is particularly useful as a paladin, swarming mage or as a monk. We advise you to choose Mönch, because Vaan impresses with its high values in the categories magic and strength. As a healer, he can also contribute well to the team.
- Fran: Machinists or red magicians are ideal for you. We recommend the second variant, as it helps as a support character, but can also hand it out.
- Ashe: It can be played well as a monk, paladin, black magician, time magician or samurai. We suggest the samurai because it has high strength and magic values and can do a lot of damage with the Genji equipment as a samurai.
- Basch: As a paladin or ranger, he does well. If you have already placed some magic jobs, you should choose the Ranger, because Basch's ability harmonizes with this job.
