Thats good to hear except that my job arrangement is a bit inconvienient but it worked fine early on in the game. Ive got Bartz with red mage abilities and the largest HP of the group, he doesn't do much except attack, mime or urgent cures. Reina is the white mage and summoner and she has the lowest HP, its dumb because sometimes i need to use both WM and SMN at the same time but i can't. Krile does the time magic and always seems to be the first to make a move, she also does the highest amount of damage with attack. Faris is the black mage but mimes most of the time.
I think next time i play i will give Bartz and Faris something useful do because meteo just beats any black magic hands down (even if the black magic is the enemy's weakness).

I'll also level up to at least 50 before attempting the boss because i want more HP without equiping the "HP + #%" ability.

Thanks for your help J.R
