- "Mighty warriors whose skills of devastation wear away their enemies' defenses."
- —Description
Raptor is a job in Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift, only accessible to Gria. The job resembles an improved version of the Soldier and Warrior jobs as it has more speed and inflicts damage while reducing enemy parameters. The Devastation skillset can be put to good use as the secondary ability of the Hunter or Ravager. Her stat growth is well balanced while slightly lacking in MP and magic. The fact that Grias are able to fly can be put to good use with Shield Bash allowing her to knock foes perched on elevated ground off resulting in fatal injury and possibly leave them disabled.
