All right, this is an advancement of the generic "What's your favorite job?" thread.
Basically, what combinations do you like to use? Also, let's eliminate any and all special classes from the mix, as well as the Calculator class.
I'll post up a sample one.
Wizard
Black Magic
White Magic
Auto-Potion
Halve Charge Time
Move +3/2
Get this one up to high Faith and you can do some serious damage. Simple yet efficient.
This is a combination I use to earn JP:
Knight
Battle Skills
Basic Skills
Auto-Potion
Gained JP Up
Move +2/3
At a distance characters can earn JP every round by using Accumulate. As they close into monsters they can earn JP by using Speed, Magic, Power and Mind Breaks. It's a great way to toy with monsters too. The Auto-Potion reduces the need to equip skills that heal.
In fact the lack of Accumulate in most special classes makes earning JP a lot harder.

Regenerator
Half Charge
Teleport
I could have sworn I asked for no special classes, of which Assasin most certainly is one of.
Samurai
Draw Out
Time Magic
Counter
Two-Swords
Move+3
This is your basic tank type, and he also requires high Faith. Give him a good offensive Draw Out and he can devestate enemies, plus he has some healing capacity, plus he can either boost your own party or mess up their party if they are too far away to be hit with the normal attacks. Even when attacked, he can be brutal.
