Best job Summoner!

Pros:
Taru have lots of MP
Taru have little HP and want to hide in a corner and let avatars fight
Myrkr is max MP based
If you happen to hate the job, join my rants on the forums

Any job will work.

It's probably best to simply dismiss Malamasala/Mellowy.

The jobs best suited for tarus are probably BLM or SCH, but please don't feel like you absolutely have to play those jobs. The most important thing to do is play the job(s) you enjoy on a character you like. If you end up playing a taru MNK, that's fine. Own it and rock it.

Play Ninja so you can do backflips! Think MNK gets that, too...

With Asuran Fists, yes.

As for job choice, choose a job you enjoy. I don't think race is as much a detractor as everyone thought it was back in the day. I know my Elvaan WHM has outperformed many a Taru WHM in the MP department, and I've seen Taru WARs slaughter a Galka WAR's damage.

"Own it and rock it" that made me lol

I want to play a job that is good for the race so: smn, blm or sch (as suggested) one of these I am going to play

which should I choose from these 3?

BLM. The other two are red-headed stepchildren at best, useless at worst. inb4 crapstorm.

Edit: Serious response, they've been working on equalizing racial stats a lot lately. The gaps are not nearly as big as they used to be, and will taper off even more by 99. I would just play whatever you enjoy. It makes very little difference in the end.

Emergency Food Source, Door Mat, Football, Cannon Fodder, Rage Release Target. Take your pick, these are what I use tarus for. /seriousface

BLM, SMN.

Taru's best job is Football.
