What is this treachery? (Problem/bug with the job system)
As I couldn't find anything online, and the Square Enix support were not able to solve my issue, I thought I may try my luck asking here (in case somebody experienced my same issue, or similar).

Long story short: early in the game, when I could choose a job, I decided for Penelo to become a Time Battlemage. It is said that they can equip crossbows however, even though I have two licences for crossbow unlocked on Penelo's licence board, I am not able to equip any. Oddly enough, Penelo can equip a basic dagger, even though I DID NOT unlock a dagger licence on her board (I don't even think it's possible, with that job).

Has anybody else experienced this really, really weird issue? Is there a way to fix it? As I have just entered the Raithwall tomb, I'd be pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥ if I had to start everything over.

As for the dagger thing, characters have starting licenses that will always be active regardless of their job. If the job features those licenses, you'll see them. If it doesn't, you won't. But it will always be active regardless.

That's why Penelo has a dagger, why Fran knows the basic black magicks, why all the girls know Cure, why Vaan/Balthier/Fran (as thieves) know Steal, and so on.

I'm not sure about the crossbows, but I believe Penelo can equip the dagger by default.

I think the best option would be to reset everyone's license boards and refill them. You can do that with the Generous Montblanc mod found here: https://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasy12/mods/107

Huh... I didn't think of that, but it actually makes a lot of sense. I'll try.

EDIT You were right. And I feel like a total idiot XD Thanks for the tip ;)
