Summoner (Tactics)
Talk6this wiki
- See also: Summoner.
The Summoner (召喚士, Shōkanshi?) is a Job class from Final Fantasy Tactics. It is unlocked by achieving level 2 in Time Mage. A strong, magical-based Job class, the Summoner can summon Espers to deal massive damage to all enemies, or aid allies. Their magic stats are high, but their other stats are all lacking. To master this Job, a character needs 9,710 JP as well as having been attacked by Darkening Cloud.
The summon abilities are characteristic for ignoring targets' Magick evasion (except for Carbuncle, Sylph, and Lich), larger effect area, and distinguishing between friend and foe, so the defensive abilities will only help the allies and offensive abilities will only hit the enemies. In exchange for the convenience, the MP cost and casting time are relatively higher than other magick skills. As of Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions'', 9,800 JP is needed to learn every ability.
Leveling Summoner to level 5, along with Squire, Chemist, Orator, Geomancer, and Dragoon will unlock Mime. Leveling the job to level 5 as well as Orator will unlock the Bard job as well for males.
