Does job class matter for Retainers?

[HyoMinPark]

Does the class/job matter if you're hoping to get minion drops?

For some, yes. There are some minions only available from BTN, some only available from MIN, some only available from FSH, and some that come from DoW/DoM 18-hour ventures. For example, the Littlefoot minion (Yeti minion) is a BTN only minion (it comes from Woodland Exploration XIV, XV, or XIV ventures). For the DoW/DoM-only minions, specific class/job doesn’t matter, as all DoW/DoM retainers access the same 18-hour ventures.
