Job quest class requirements

[Starya]

Firstly, thanks for posting this info! Very helpful

And here's a list of jobs and their both subclasses:

• Bard (Archer): Pugilist, Lancer
• Summoner (Arcanist): Thaumaturge, Archer
• Scholar (Arcanist): Conjurer, Thaumaturge
• Dragoon (Lancer): Marauder, Pugilist
• Black Mage (Thaumaturge): Archer, Arcanist
• White Mage (Conjurer): Arcanist, Thaumaturge
• Monk (Pugilist): Lancer, Marauder
• Warrior (Marauder): Gladiator, Pugilist
• Paladin (Gladiator): Conjurer, Marauder

Secondly, could you please explain what is meant by subclasses? There are no subjobs in this game like there were in FFXI, right? Is this just the classes whose skills you can use? I.e. as a white mage, I would be able to use skills from arcanist & thaumaturge?

No problem!

In XIV, each job has a base class (like Conjurer for White Mage or Pugilist for Monk) and two subclasses. Compared to the base class, each job gets stat boosts and special job abilities, but they can only pick cross-class skills from their two subclasses (5 skills total) instead of picking them from all the classes. So yes, as a White Mage, in addition to WHM and CNJ abilities, you'd get to pick 5 cross-class abilities from THM and ACN. Hope this clears it up!
