Espers & Job Classes

[skiedragon2]

So I finally collected all the Espers. I would like some suggestions on witch Esper is suited for each job class.

Mostly that's really up to you. If you've gotten them all, at that point there's very little you'd need anything extra for relaly.
The only real "this class should always get this esper" IMO is Chuchulin should goto Red Mage.

There's three "big ones", really.

- The above-mentioned Cuchulainn for Red Mage
- Hashmal for Knight
- Famfrit for Machinist

Of course, all this varies with your job setup, as you can unlock the skills these Espers provide via a second board as well (meaning you wouldn't need the Espers).

You can use the party planning spreadsheet for a convenient overview over what you get on which of your jobs, but do keep cross-job synergies in mind:

I would suggest reading here as well

https://www.gamerguides.com/final-fantasy-xii/guide/the-basics/character-development/assigning-espers

gives you a tonne of information about classes and how to assign espers. Some are very easy picks, but some depending on the job combo, aren't that great. But again, depends on your party setup.

I will say this was probably the one thing I didn't like about the new license boards how stuff was gated behind certain Espers which would force certain job classes to take certain Espers. I much prefer having the flexibility to assign them to whoever I want based on who I use, who I want to have which one, etc. As such I used a program that let me edit the license boards. Basically all I did was move the Esper tiles to where they weren't gating off anything. Also added Gengji Armor to all classes since I didn't know who would be using it.

There's nothing wrong with that. It's why PC is the best version of the game - play the way YOU want to.
