Don't forget to mention that the Orator's Entice or Negotiation could allow you to permanently recruit enemy units! It was one of the only ways to get enemy monsters in your unit, and you could basically recruit any monster in the game (unless they were story enemies), including Malboros, Bull Demons and Hydra monsters
1. You forgot to mention most imporant thing about Orator. Traitors joins your party permamently, they stay even after combat. And you can get that way monsters into your party as well.
Orator is one of my favorite jobs in FFT! Not only orators can use guns, I also used their skills to persuade human enemies to join the party because I wanted their weapons and accessories instead of stealing.
About Scholar, it originally had these purpose: identify elemental weakness for increasing damage and figure out enemy HP for resource conservation. For FF14, all HP bars are visible and there are no elemental weaknesses. Instead it’s now baked into the class’s offensive aesthetic. The computery graphics is a long time FF trope, which is known as Stat-O-Vision and used in Scan (a spell, but also an iconic action to the Scholar). They actually regain it via Chain Stratagem which has the main function of boosting damage with the full on “Scan”-like graphics and sound.
I love the Festivalist job not only because it was a fan submission but also because they went all out for the skills and gimmicks, it's simply awesome
Beat x-2 never using festivalist. Completely pointless when everyone can use items that change status already and they last for more than one turn@@Blknamor
I liked petrifying the whole map and putting their statues in a museum. Fun thing is stone is insta-death for enemies but cure-able on allies, unless enemies actually cure each other of it, which was rare. So friendly fire just adds to the fun, everyone gets stoned.
Another very obscure Job is the Necromancer. It only appeared in the GBA remake of FFV, and it had some of the coolest sprites in the game. In a similar fashion to Blue Mage, you got your spells from enemies, but instead the Necromancer character had to deal the final blow to an enemy in order to learn them. The Job had access to some of the most powerful damaging spells in the game, often surpassing Black Mage. It also granted the Undead status to characters using the Job, meaning that you'd take damage from healing items/spells, but had access to the best Drain-type spell and healed fully if an enemy was foolish enough to cast Death upon them.
Re: Puppet Master, it's probably worth pointing out that the 6 jobs you can pick from creation take up 81.93% of the census. Leaving 14 jobs to fight over the remaining 18%
On FFXI, SCH was great but was really hard getting into a party with one. Would get asked a lot to switch to BLM or WHM. Mostly only got used in LS parties. Full alliance in Abyssea. Usually when 5 or more WHM's showed up I would run SCH. Part of why I went Scholar.
The Morpher was the longest and most expensive way to break FFTA. After maxing out the captured creature's affection, it would request Curealls on future feedings. Curealls is a fairly expensive consumable, but upon feeding them with it, their stats will increase minimally. If course, you can feed a creature as much as your wallet allows, meaning you could cap out a creature's stats at 999 in a game where max level units will have half of that. Also keep in mind that making a morpher requires next to no building of the actual unit (besides speed) since they take on the stats of what they turn into.
Astrologian is something I'd say is worthy of the list, first appearing in FF: Tactics as Orran's unique job Astrologer for a single fight in the entire game and featuring a single spell in its arsenal with Celestial Stasis. It became a full job with FF14 Heavensward where Celestial Stasis becoming its limit break (renamed Astral Stasis) and the rest of the job was created purely from scratch to make it a healer.
i know that job makes a show in XIV as part of the main quest takes you to the one group who knows of a ship ya need, but their word is locked by their laws nad such.
ranger was cool in FF6 because the animals command was both the most useless and most useful in the game. Before level 60 it does almost nothing except around lvl 20 when nightingale is the best healer. But after 60 you can get unicorn which fully restored the whole parties' hp and mp and scaled to appear more often as you levelled up. Unicorn was the best method for dealing with longer fights like Enuo, Neo Shinryu, and Omega mk-II or even just end-gameplay because it took forever to go back to the main world to buy more cottages for mp restoration. Unicorn was the unsung hero of late game that many players didn't even know existed
as someone who played on and off final fantasy 11 for almost 20 years now, i still yearn for another game with a pet job as good as puppetmaster. the job in itself was so versatile and strong, but most people never bothered with it because it was so hard to master, i remember people being shunned on my server for playing it, and i myself had to level it almost completely solo to 75 (max level) because nobody knew what it does or can do. why invite a worse monk with a pet, when you can get a monk type of deal. but jokes on them, the puppetmaster was a decent monk themself, and the puppet if used correctly was a force to be reckoned with. i remember at max level my blackmage puppet outdamaged real blackmages if they did not have good gear. the only downside was that the tank pupped stopped being usefull after lvl20-30, but even in lower levels you would rather have a redmage puppet, because it can nuke/debuff and even heal you or itself, so instead of letting the pet tank, you would tank yourself as the master, and let the puppet support you. and im saying this because you could only get 1 puppet frame every 10 or 20 levels, and each frame had its own skillsets you had to manually level up through using the mentioned frame.
Because when you search the actual lore behind the FFXIV's Reaper, they aren't really that obscure in origin, atleast, not "FFXIV" reapers, most of the reaper-ish terms they use are mostly only symbolic; -The "reapers" in game aesthetically are obviously inspired on the concept of the Grim Reaper and Death, but their actual ingame lore comes from the real life Harverst Reaper profession; They come from garlemand farmers who were forced to leave their homes and learned to use their tools (the scythes) as weapons to fight and be able to make a living as mercenaries, body guards, etc. - The "demonic entity" you mention, or voidsent. we find out in recent patches (spoilers from 6.1 and onward story) are not actually demons but the inhabitands of the thirteenth reflection, who became monsters after their world fell to darkness and can even return to human form if they are feed enough Aether (Zero). So the reaper's avatar was actually a person once. The Garlemands made pacts with them because of their inhability to use Aether (and they were farmers so their martial prowress wasn't that big, they needed all the power they could get) so they offered them the Aether from their fallen foes in exchange of their power. While the WoL was able to make a pact with one because of his affinity with Darkness after having visited the thirteenth during the events of the Crystal Tower and facing the Cloud of Darkness. - The "soul" we are feeding to the Avatar is just the dispersed Aether of fallen enemies and the WoL own's, demostrated as you get "souls" just by attacking, not even killing them, or attacking robots or dummies.
Imagine, combining FF job system with non-combat job/class like in Suikoden wherein aside from being Swordsman, character is also a farmer. He can help feeding the castle or any form of base.
i vaguely remember FF3 Scholar denying some permanent hp over time so if u picked SCH for too long levelwise, ud be unable to reach max hp of 999 anymore
Those who wanted to maximize Bravery on all their allies to guarantee the Reactions proc'ing would use the FFT Orator to boost Brave of your allies to 100.
Heritor from FFTA2 was pretty cool concept. Kind of like a Blue Mage but instead of collecting monster techniques/souls they learn about unique individuals and inherit their techniques and stories.
This vid strikes me as especially timely, as people have been trying to guess the next jobs that will be entered into FFXIV. While Yoshi-P has already said there's a good chance that the dev team will need to start developing new jobs at some point because the design space for adaptation of old jobs is naturally limited, he hasn't said we're at that point yet.
An important note on the Orator is that they always could buff/debuff any targets Bravery and Faith which are major stats that affect everything from chance to counterattack to healing received. Their buff/debuffa would give/take a decent chunk initially, but 1/4 of all bravery/faith modifiers became permanent so you could use this to sculpt your team and buff them permanently for their role. Very strong ability!
Bravely Default isn't Final Fantasy, but want to shout out the Exorcist class for being unique. It has a bunch of abilities that tie into reverting things to a turn or three ago. Which makes for some wild set ups.
Scholar is a healer in FF14, not a damage-oriented job. Its damage dealing abilities are incidental since the healers all have some sort of DPS filler and are intended to deal damage between healing.
The thumbnail makes me miss Mobius Final Fantasy. Though the jobs were all derivatives/variants of the core FF I jobs (Warrior, Thief, Monk, and Mage), the outfit designs were top notch and later they started coming with their own extremely catchy battle themes.
Out of all of these jobs, Puppetmaster, Scribe, and Memorist are the only ones I've never used, even though I have played both games they appear in (I'm still pretty early on in both); I did wanna say, though, due to the game rewarding you with small amounts of Multiplayer Points for excessive grinding, you *could* cheese the Multiplayer requirement for FF4HOL. Thank you for running this channel, btw. I grew up playing a lot of Final Fantasy games on my PSX, PS2, and GBA in high school, and I will always feel a certain, high amount of fondness for the series. The first one I ever beat, though, was Final Fantasy 3 (NES), which I played as an English-translated romhack, back before high school me knew that roms were a kind of dangerously gray legal area for IT professionals. I was actually one of the primary individuals responsible for ascertaining the in-memory hex codes for the in-game item list, as well as the "item morphing" strategy normally used to get the Onion Equipment, something that would later be used to set a character's job level and max HP to the item ID for Potion, basically making them basically un-killable and unstoppable if done right.
I found the Orator in FF Tactics extremely useful! Just keep recruiting enemies as allies, unequip the new recruits, and then dismiss the new allies, rinse, repeat! Get a LOT of good stuff that way, and kind of put the thieves out of a job! (Pun somewhat intended!)
You clever boy! Thanks for that tip. Its been a hot 3 years since ive checked into that save file.... ...just got past thay fool that always dark holies me to death forever....things had gotten rough as I remember. But yea...love the orator. Thanks again for the that wet throbbing tip.
But the scholar class is also available in FF XIV. But it begins as an arcanist class, then on lvl 35 (if I remember well) you keep the same class but it switches to scholar...
Biggest tactics fangirl alive here. Of course i had a full team of orators. Make their subclass knight or cleric and ya got one of the most useful supports ever.
The Mediator/Orator job from FFT was one of my favorites, and it made JP farming a lot easier in the endgame. Abilities like Threaten could turn enemies into literal chickens running scared for their lives, and Mimic Daravon was simultaneously a useful instant sleep spell and a quirky in-universe joke at the professor character that does boring tutorials. Classic!

4 Heroes of Light representation!
Thanks for the upload during my September 2023 birthday month!
"Pen being mightier than the sword" (literally one of the few that can immediately use guns)
Wonder if FFXIV will bring back and improve on Puppetmaster?
I don't care what anyone says, final fantasy 3 is my favorite. But I've never given scholars a solid shot. I had no idea about the items.
I like Green Mage. My favorites are Wakka and Balthier(Built with Green Magicks in my FF12 playthrough).
I'll never get tired of the Blue Mage and Thief
Orator is one of my favorite jobs in FFT! Not only orators can use guns, I also used their skills to persuade human enemies to join the party because I wanted their weapons and accessories instead of stealing.
I feel like a Bravely Default version of this video could be interesting
Orator also had a role in optimizing characters by PERMANENTLY nudging their brave and faith by 1 point per activation of the relevant abilities.
Love seeing Dimensions get some recognition!
My favorite Orator spell is “Mimic Darovan”. You literally bore the enemy to sleep. XD
the Dresssphere System is the GOAT of Jobs.
I used the Mediator in almost every playthrough of FF Tactics since 1997.
Biskmatar? Hello ^^
I alway have a job application with me in case I need it for exorcism
, any chance you guys would make a video on all the different races throughout the history of Final Fantasy?
Mobius art, instant watch
About Scholar, it originally had these purpose: identify elemental weakness for increasing damage and figure out enemy HP for resource conservation.
For FF14, all HP bars are visible and there are no elemental weaknesses. Instead it’s now baked into the class’s offensive aesthetic. The computery graphics is a long time FF trope, which is known as Stat-O-Vision and used in Scan (a spell, but also an iconic action to the Scholar).
They actually regain it via Chain Stratagem which has the main function of boosting damage with the full on “Scan”-like graphics and sound.
Orator had one more thing going for them: dude was packing a gun
I love the Festivalist job not only because it was a fan submission but also because they went all out for the skills and gimmicks, it's simply awesome
Agreed!!
Beat x-2 never using festivalist. Completely pointless when everyone can use items that change status already and they last for more than one turn@@Blknamor
Good for you?@@murderface1628
Puppetmaster main here. Miss that job so much.
"Orator uses words to attack" *Only uses guns outside of the one Persuade to your party skill*
The more traditional Scholar got some real love in Octopath Traveler!
I LOVE the Orator in Tactics, with high enough stats you can get any recruitable unit.
I'm calling it, I think the new FFXIV class teased is the Morpher class or something like it
I figured “Mascot” was going to be on here. I’d forgotten about “Festivalist.”
They need to give onion knight some more love
I'm a bit surprised that the Calculator did not make this list, it's never existed outside of FFT and had a very unique playstyle.
Nuking everyone with holy was the best part
"Behold! *MATH!"* (decimates the country side)
Funny enough, Math SPELLS are all over the games
Lv.3 Death?
Lv.5 Holy?
I liked petrifying the whole map and putting their statues in a museum. Fun thing is stone is insta-death for enemies but cure-able on allies, unless enemies actually cure each other of it, which was rare. So friendly fire just adds to the fun, everyone gets stoned.
Ivalice raids in 14 make u do math or u wipe
Not the Mobius art...😢
No I don't want to remember.
@@leosolcanonizado4065 facts man it might not have mattered to others but that game meant something to me
the art for the morpher looks like an NPC from Shadowbringers in 14.
I'm a Puppetmaster in FFXI! Truly a versatile job, high skill ceiling but totally worth your time
I just imagine the orator job being like Kendrick Lamar slaying dragons with his words
Thank you for another awesome video!
You didn't get the most obscure one: Barrier Mage. It's a FFBE job. One character that uses it is named Shylt.
Man your knowledge is extensive, have you done a overview video summarizing all of the over 100 classes for final fantasy?
Entice/Negotiate was actually Entice/Invite. Negotiate was the alternate name for Beg.
Jobs like Pictomancer, SOLDIER, and Delita’s Sis are pretty obscure too, each only appearing in one game.
…and then Dawntrail happened lol
Another very obscure Job is the Necromancer. It only appeared in the GBA remake of FFV, and it had some of the coolest sprites in the game. In a similar fashion to Blue Mage, you got your spells from enemies, but instead the Necromancer character had to deal the final blow to an enemy in order to learn them. The Job had access to some of the most powerful damaging spells in the game, often surpassing Black Mage. It also granted the Undead status to characters using the Job, meaning that you'd take damage from healing items/spells, but had access to the best Drain-type spell and healed fully if an enemy was foolish enough to cast Death upon them.
Yeah I expected Cannoneer for a similar reason.
Kind of surprising to not see Pictomancer on the list.
Orator literally uses "talk-no-jutsu"! 😂
Shout out to those who remember “lolPUP” as the most enduring trait of the FFXI Puppetmaster
I miss playing my Puppet Master from FF11.
I immediately think of the Heaven/Hell knights of Final Fantasy Tactics. For whatever reason I loved the two.
Re: Puppet Master, it's probably worth pointing out that the 6 jobs you can pick from creation take up 81.93% of the census. Leaving 14 jobs to fight over the remaining 18%
Scholar was also in FFTA2 but its role in that game was completely different from any other iteration of the job.
I'm watching this just to fuel my speculation about potential jobs in Dawntrail 😝
Brillant way to start off the list with the Orator.
I MISS MOBIUS FINAL FANTASY
On FFXI, SCH was great but was really hard getting into a party with one. Would get asked a lot to switch to BLM or WHM. Mostly only got used in LS parties. Full alliance in Abyssea. Usually when 5 or more WHM's showed up I would run SCH. Part of why I went Scholar.
I loved it, there could be a part 2
The Morpher was the longest and most expensive way to break FFTA. After maxing out the captured creature's affection, it would request Curealls on future feedings. Curealls is a fairly expensive consumable, but upon feeding them with it, their stats will increase minimally.

It's not so obscure now. Now Cannoneer, now that's one of the least memorable jobs.
i know that job makes a show in XIV as part of the main quest takes you to the one group who knows of a ship ya need, but their word is locked by their laws nad such.
While not a full Final Fantasy game Bravely Second: End Layer also had Astrologian
@Zavitor it's very obscure
Calculator
Best job ever, never came back because nobody knows math.
ranger was cool in FF6 because the animals command was both the most useless and most useful in the game. Before level 60 it does almost nothing except around lvl 20 when nightingale is the best healer. But after 60 you can get unicorn which fully restored the whole parties' hp and mp and scaled to appear more often as you levelled up.

Unicorn was the unsung hero of late game that many players didn't even know existed
No Calculator/Arithmetician? Fake list.
I always make a white mage orator mix when I played tactics, a true peacekeeping character 😊
Oh my god the puppet guy. I was a puppet/red mage back in the day when I was a very small child. Horrible synergy but I had fun lol
You could've done this just off of Tactics. Geomancer was always one of my favs.
I created Orator/Bard. The Vocalist. Add mana shield to basically double his hp
I would love if Square-Enix introduce the class "Reaper" to other games like Final Fantasy Tactics
as someone who played on and off final fantasy 11 for almost 20 years now, i still yearn for another game with a pet job as good as puppetmaster.
the job in itself was so versatile and strong, but most people never bothered with it because it was so hard to master, i remember people being shunned on my server for playing it, and i myself had to level it almost completely solo to 75 (max level) because nobody knew what it does or can do.
why invite a worse monk with a pet, when you can get a monk type of deal.
but jokes on them, the puppetmaster was a decent monk themself, and the puppet if used correctly was a force to be reckoned with.
i remember at max level my blackmage puppet outdamaged real blackmages if they did not have good gear.
the only downside was that the tank pupped stopped being usefull after lvl20-30, but even in lower levels you would rather have a redmage puppet, because it can nuke/debuff and even heal you or itself, so instead of letting the pet tank, you would tank yourself as the master, and let the puppet support you.
and im saying this because you could only get 1 puppet frame every 10 or 20 levels, and each frame had its own skillsets you had to manually level up through using the mentioned frame.
Smh no green mage in list. The idea of a pure status effect mage with high physical damage was so neat.
I would love to see the Puppet Master class again
Morpher is one of my favorite jobs in FF, like Green Mage. I wish they would add them to XIV.
I loved the puppet master job in ff11
I did not know you can be a power ranger in Final Fantasy
I would love to see a sequel to ff3 where you played the dark side
I was expecting Reaper from XIV to be here. I cant think of another ff job where you call forth and fuse with a demonic entity
Because when you search the actual lore behind the FFXIV's Reaper, they aren't really that obscure in origin, atleast, not "FFXIV" reapers, most of the reaper-ish terms they use are mostly only symbolic;
-The "reapers" in game aesthetically are obviously inspired on the concept of the Grim Reaper and Death, but their actual ingame lore comes from the real life Harverst Reaper profession; They come from garlemand farmers who were forced to leave their homes and learned to use their tools (the scythes) as weapons to fight and be able to make a living as mercenaries, body guards, etc.
- The "demonic entity" you mention, or voidsent. we find out in recent patches (spoilers from 6.1 and onward story) are not actually demons but the inhabitands of the thirteenth reflection, who became monsters after their world fell to darkness and can even return to human form if they are feed enough Aether (Zero). So the reaper's avatar was actually a person once. The Garlemands made pacts with them because of their inhability to use Aether (and they were farmers so their martial prowress wasn't that big, they needed all the power they could get) so they offered them the Aether from their fallen foes in exchange of their power. While the WoL was able to make a pact with one because of his affinity with Darkness after having visited the thirteenth during the events of the Crystal Tower and facing the Cloud of Darkness.
- The "soul" we are feeding to the Avatar is just the dispersed Aether of fallen enemies and the WoL own's, demostrated as you get "souls" just by attacking, not even killing them, or attacking robots or dummies.
Imagine, combining FF job system with non-combat job/class like in Suikoden wherein aside from being Swordsman, character is also a farmer.
He can help feeding the castle or any form of base.
i vaguely remember FF3 Scholar denying some permanent hp over time so if u picked SCH for too long levelwise, ud be unable to reach max hp of 999 anymore
Those who wanted to maximize Bravery on all their allies to guarantee the Reactions proc'ing would use the FFT Orator to boost Brave of your allies to 100.
Some jobs so obscure they didn't even make this video
Heritor from FFTA2 was pretty cool concept. Kind of like a Blue Mage but instead of collecting monster techniques/souls they learn about unique individuals and inherit their techniques and stories.
This vid strikes me as especially timely, as people have been trying to guess the next jobs that will be entered into FFXIV. While Yoshi-P has already said there's a good chance that the dev team will need to start developing new jobs at some point because the design space for adaptation of old jobs is naturally limited, he hasn't said we're at that point yet.
Posting about jobs on Labor Day
An important note on the Orator is that they always could buff/debuff any targets Bravery and Faith which are major stats that affect everything from chance to counterattack to healing received.
Their buff/debuffa would give/take a decent chunk initially, but 1/4 of all bravery/faith modifiers became permanent so you could use this to sculpt your team and buff them permanently for their role. Very strong ability!
So we made a list of jobs that were specifically created for the game and game mechanics they were going into.
As a scholar in FF14 you lvl up 2 jobs at one time. I choose to be a summoner first, but play the scholar every now and then.
Bravely Default isn't Final Fantasy, but want to shout out the Exorcist class for being unique. It has a bunch of abilities that tie into reverting things to a turn or three ago. Which makes for some wild set ups.
i abused the mediator quite a bit in fft
The scholar is also a playable class for the nu mou race in FFTA2 lol
Scholar is a healer in FF14, not a damage-oriented job. Its damage dealing abilities are incidental since the healers all have some sort of DPS filler and are intended to deal damage between healing.
The thumbnail makes me miss Mobius Final Fantasy.
Though the jobs were all derivatives/variants of the core FF I jobs (Warrior, Thief, Monk, and Mage), the outfit designs were top notch and later they started coming with their own extremely catchy battle themes.
Paladin is in FF1 as fighter’s advance class knight (which is what paladin is called in Japanese versions like FFXI)
Orator, scribe and memorist are great ideas with great potential. job systems are neat!
Imagine if Festivalist is the next class/job in 14? 🤩🤣
Out of all of these jobs, Puppetmaster, Scribe, and Memorist are the only ones I've never used, even though I have played both games they appear in (I'm still pretty early on in both); I did wanna say, though, due to the game rewarding you with small amounts of Multiplayer Points for excessive grinding, you *could* cheese the Multiplayer requirement for FF4HOL.
Thank you for running this channel, btw. I grew up playing a lot of Final Fantasy games on my PSX, PS2, and GBA in high school, and I will always feel a certain, high amount of fondness for the series. The first one I ever beat, though, was Final Fantasy 3 (NES), which I played as an English-translated romhack, back before high school me knew that roms were a kind of dangerously gray legal area for IT professionals. I was actually one of the primary individuals responsible for ascertaining the in-memory hex codes for the in-game item list, as well as the "item morphing" strategy normally used to get the Onion Equipment, something that would later be used to set a character's job level and max HP to the item ID for Potion, basically making them basically un-killable and unstoppable if done right.
I found the Orator in FF Tactics extremely useful! Just keep recruiting enemies as allies, unequip the new recruits, and then dismiss the new allies, rinse, repeat! Get a LOT of good stuff that way, and kind of put the thieves out of a job! (Pun somewhat intended!)
You clever boy! Thanks for that tip. Its been a hot 3 years since ive checked into that save file....
...just got past thay fool that always dark holies me to death forever....things had gotten rough as I remember.
But yea...love the orator. Thanks again for the that wet throbbing tip.
Oh yea , Orator was so broken early game, especially with snagging good gear in the desert and so much easier then thief
Being able to permanently raise Brave and Faith while being able to equip guns was neat.
Scholar is used in Final fantasy:War of the visions & is called Keeper & master historian & apprentice keeper in Final fantasy:Record Keepers
But the scholar class is also available in FF XIV. But it begins as an arcanist class, then on lvl 35 (if I remember well) you keep the same class but it switches to scholar...
Suprised you didn't talk about the arithmaticion since it only would work in games with a height mechanic.
My cousin always talks about the Calculator class from Tactics and I feel like that should've had a spot on here more than Scholar
Killing monsters with math, what could be more hard core than that?
To me the most obscure FF job is *the FF hater* they claim to be fans but hate over 90% of the games LMBO
edit: its their full time job too
Biggest tactics fangirl alive here. Of course i had a full team of orators. Make their subclass knight or cleric and ya got one of the most useful supports ever.
The Mediator/Orator job from FFT was one of my favorites, and it made JP farming a lot easier in the endgame. Abilities like Threaten could turn enemies into literal chickens running scared for their lives, and Mimic Daravon was simultaneously a useful instant sleep spell and a quirky in-universe joke at the professor character that does boring tutorials. Classic!
I also enjoyed the irony of them being able to use guns. Aggressive negotiations.
I hope Cait Sith is something like the Puppet Master class.
Brilliant ideas
