Job Classes in FF2..

Okay, i know this game the chars are FFA(free for all), but i found a way to give the game a very fun twist. Take a job class, and have thw character develope in that fashion… IT presents a challenge to the game, and gives the characters a little identity…

Here’s how i did it. I based my characters off the Advanced jobs in FF11, and developed their skills accordingly.

Firion: Paladin
shield and sword, and your basic cure and protection spells and later Holy.

Maria: Ranger
Bows and Daggers are her weapons of choice.
status recovery and indirect magic are her specialties.

Gus: Beastmaster(he can talk to animals)
pure axe (maybe staff)
His spells, i gave him stat boosting spells, but i kept his magic to a minimum.

Leon: Dark Knight
1 sword, no shield is his mode of attack.
He will learn all the elemental black magic, along with the drain spells, and eventually Ultima.

That was it for the 4 main chars. This is for the other chars

Mindu: White Mage
Staff
The magic he comes with is the magic he gets.

Josef: Monk
His hands.
Possible cure magic, if you want to teach him any.

Gordon: Dragoon
left handed Spear, and possible shield.
Possible some elemental attack magic. particularly thunder or fire.

Leila: ninja
Either 2 swords, 2 daggers, or 1 sword and 1 dagger.
Thunder element magic for being a pirate…

I am pretty sure i didnt leave anyone out. But if i did, please tell me.

Going through the game with the chars like this was very fun, and i thought i should post the idea up here.

I think you mixed up Gordon and Gareth (“Richard”). Gareth should be the Dragoon.

I dont remember Gareth… shoot, now i have to go through the whole thing again !

…Gareth was the Dragoon you recruited late in the game…

You recruited him in the belly of the Leviathan, remember?.

So how did having a beastmaster in your party work out for you?

(hates them in FF11)

Gus does awesome damage with an axe, i just class him as Beastmaster because he talks to animals.

But okay, i remember Gareth now… no wonder i forgot about him, such a small roll.

Okay, so here’s how i would class Gordon, since Gareth would be Dragoon.

Gordon would have to be Red Mage.
drop the spear give him sword and shield. and basic cure and elemental spells.

I’m gonna have to play it out this way next time.
