What retainer jobs should I level?

[SendohJin]

Personal aesthetic tastes aside, what retainer jobs should I go for? Which are currently considered the best? I have 8 retainers and I was thinking of doing 4 combat, 1 MNR, 1 BNT, and 2 FSH, or would it be more effective to have more MNRs and BNTs than that?

if you have 8 retainers, you should have 2 combat, 2 MIN, 2 BTN, 2 FSH.

or 1 FSH and 1 more of any of the other 3.

Combat retainers are typical the best since it allows you having to avoid farming mobs. At the moment, I don't even have a FSH retainer as they offer nothing in Stormblood. Best thing they bring back is mats for Seafood Stew, so I'd avoid having more than one of them. My own arrangement is...

Three DoW/M
Two MIN
Two BTN

Miner is incredibly useful if you do gardening. Grade 3 soil every hour whereas BTN can bring back a lot of potion mats.
