Well I thought its about "what job system is your favorite"

So I will answer to the quesion I was expecting :)

every system that lets me change the job. I hate picking a single class. I want to do everything the game has to offer.



About single job only:

The least boring one (every game has different magicians or warriors so I cant just say which class because it changes from game to game)

The freaking merchant. You can kill enemies by throwing money at them! It doesn't get any better than that.

If a game has a merchant class, it usually becomes my main.  In Ragnarok Online, I had high level Knights but I stayed on my Alchemist the most.  Alchemist and Blacksmith both start as Merchants and they both have a move where they'd attack with money.  Expensive but powerful.

On topic, Monks are often awesome at dealing damage.  I also like Ninja a lot because many games give them the first move/attack.  In Suikoden 2, the Ninja girl almost never left my party because she always got to use her deadly Shrike still before the enemy got a chance.

Oooh, Suikoden 2... People say it's the best of the series, and a must play for RPG fans. I haven't played it yet... T^T Monks are a kind of class that feels satisfying by end game, because they can sometimes turn out to be the strongest characters in the game with just their fists. Ninjas are pretty cool, but I don't use them much. They weren't so prominent in the games I played before.

Anything with a dragon in, or the Swordmage thing from Bravely Default. Still can't believe their costumes in that...

The alchemist in said game is also neat.


Funny you mention the spell fencer costume in the game. I think there is a dialogue directly related to that. It's pretty funny. I think Ringabel tries to get Tiz to trick the girls into being spell fencers just so they were those costumes.

Is there any class that stands above the rest or you favor more than others? O:

I love JRPGs but hate games with job systems. I prefer games like Xenoblade, FF6-8 and Chrono Trigger / Cross because having to decide between too many options is the opposite of fun to me.

That's understandable. Having just characters with their own unique moves are good too. The games you mention are great ones, my favs being FF6 and Chrono Trigger : )

Best character class? This one, of course.

TwT;;; Sorry, but I don't know what class that is... I never played the PS FF Tactics game before. I'm sorry...

Calculator/Mathematician.

Incredibly fun to play, but can pretty much take care of any battle by themselves once they've learned the necessary skills.
