umm im just a newbie with this game and was wondering, what are each characters default jobs, i mean roles :p
obvs lightning is a commando but what about the others?
dumbass question i know but ive only just got access to the crystergy thingy ( pretty sphere grid :p)
Unfortunately the game doesn't really encourage mixing around with the roles, there's a couple of cases where it's useful (such as Fang as a Rav and Syn, Light as Syn), but most of the time it's not cost-effective and it's rarely necessary
I would have had some fun with this such as allowing characters like Vanille, Hope, and Sazh to get some value out of attacking physically like a Commando throughout the course of the game, but there are no editing devices like Gameshark that would allow me to do so.
Default roles are the game's way of trying to force you to swap in particular characters for particular Paradigms. That bothers me, since I have my three favorites for regular party members: Lightning, Sazh, and Snow. It certainly helped that they got their Summons and extra action bars earliest. I like the paradigm Attrition but to use it everyone uses a secondary role, so I'm maxing out Sentinal for Sazh, Medic for Snow, and Saboteur for Lightning. It's pretty arduous, but I've already maxed out their default roles. Since I'm finally doing the subquests the CP is racking up.
I have yet to put him to use this way, but on my second play through I had Sazh learn Steelguard, Provoke, and Fringeward as a Sentinel. I noticed that endgame he had the highest base HP count, so it made sense.
Default roles throughout most of the game, and it's also a more efficient way of using the CP cos the accessories/atb slots are typically within the default roles. It makes less 'economic sense' to spread your CP thin especially when it's harder to obtain massive amounts in the earlier stages of the game. It was only after I maxed out my stage 9 crystarium and had a meagre 100k or so left of extra CP points that I let them venture into somewhere else. WHich really didn't get them very far except a few basic abilities.
Sure didn't--I thought Vanille was a great Sentinel. And I liked her sayings as a Sentinel as well lol.
It seemed hard to stray the path. I hated how you couldn't expand the game until after you beat it. I loaded the game after I beat it, and got bored in the first 5 minutes so I never leveled them after completing the game.
