Jobs

Upon character creation, the player will be asked to select a Job. One does not need to play this job for their entire playthrough.

A Job is one of 13 classes, of which only 9 are available initially — Brigand, Floramancer, Sword Dancer, Paladin, Budoka, Hunter, Spellshaper, Edge Thane, and Soulkeeper.

The Gambler, HuSyn, and Wild Child classes must be unlocked by meeting certain criteria, such as completing certain quests during your adventure. Once unlocked, they will be available to any character in that data slot.

The Calligrapher class is a new class available with the purchase of the DLC - The Legend of Shara. It can be purchased on the Steam Store starting on April 4, 2019. It will be available on Nintendo Switch at a later date if successful.

The Sorceress class was released in an undocumented update sometime in June, 2020.

## Traits

Every Job has specific Traits that, in conjunction with their skills, make them unique from one another. These traits come in three tiers.

* Tier 1 is unlocked straight up when using the Job.
* Tier 2 is unlocked by spending 1000+ JP on purchasing Job Skills.
* Tier 3 is unlocked by purchasing all Skills for that Job.

Traits cannot be transferred between Jobs. Therefore, it is recommended that once all skills desired are unlocked, one finds a Job with traits that are best suited to his or her play style.

## Job Points

Job Points (JP) are earned by completing rumors, defeating enemies, or chopping down aging trees. They are primarily used to unlock a Job's skills.

Each Job has a separate JP pool, meaning JP earned with one job will not be available if you switch to a different job, until you change back. You may also spend JP at:

* Monster Corral — To improve the stats of the newborn monsters from breeding.
* The Dreamcaster — To install skill orbs onto gear.
* — To heal if you are short on gold or tents.
* — To learn weapon masteries or enter job trials.

You may view your JP at any time by pressing the 'C', 'I', or 'J' button and checking the top-left corner next to the Heroine's portrait.

Once you've mastered a job completely, you will be allowed to earn your job's emblem and enter a new type of dungeon called a Job Trial which will cost JP. The job trials have very specific restrictions and will test the limits of your class and how well you know it. The entry will cost 500, 1000, and 1500 JP respectively on tiers 1-3. If you teleport out of the trial via town portal, it will be considered forfeited and you will have to spend the JP again to attempt the trial at a later time.

## Skills / Abilities

Each Job has a set of skills that may be learned by spending JP. They may be either Activated Skills or Support (Passive) Skills.

* Activated Skills are unique abilities that must be toggled or used for an effect. Once learned, they may be used regardless of the Heroine's Job unless it's a skill granted from any of the traits.
* Support Skills are passive effects that must be equipped in order to utilize. You may only have 4 of such Skills active at a given time, but are free to learn as many as you like.

## Character Level

Leveling up increases your Character Level, which currently caps at 15, but will cap at 20 with DLC - The Legend of Shara.

Each time you level up, you receive:

* +1.5 to every Attribute (distributed automatically)
* +3 points to a single Attribute (you choose)

The basic attributes of a starting character are 25 Strength, 20 Swiftness, 20 Spirit, 20 Discipline, 20 Guile, 100 Stamina, 100 Energy and 170 Health.
These starting values may differ depending on your currently active job.

## Changing Jobs

A player may change their Job at any time either through the use of a  or, more commonly, by speaking to  in Riverstone Camp who will change a player's Job for a fee. This fee increases with each Character Level and subsequent Job change.

Once a player changes their Job, they will begin earning JP for it. The old JP pool will be saved with the former Job and become available again if the job is returned to.
