Pretty certain this works for jobs not yet unlocked and explains why some characters start with a nice amount of JP after unlocking the class ( This part is just from memory and speculation though).įFT Original - 25% of JP gained is spilt-over to allies. (This happens for the Archer and Knight respectively). You will notice over time that the Monk will gain (a small amount) of JP in Archer and Knight overtime in addition to his gained Monk JP. So let's say there is a party (in battle) of a Monk, Archer, and Knight. Dead/KO allies do not gain JP-Spillover (only tested in wotl). Party members under some circumstances spill their gained JP over to other members of the party.
So a Wizard that has White Magic as its secondary skillset will only gain JP as a Wizard. You gain JP (Job Points) for the Class you currently are.
