BARD (JEUNO)
_______________________________

An NPC by the name of Mertaire can be found in the Merry Minstrel in Lower Jeuno.  Speak with him, then speak with every one else in the
Merry Minstrel. Purchase parchment from the Auction House. Head out to the
Buburimu Peninsula and head to (G-9).  There should be a song rune in this area.  Trade the paper to it.  Return to Jeuno and talk to
Mertaire again.  Now you must head to the Valkurm Dunes.  There will be a "secret cave" near the northwestern edge of the zone.  Go through it and you will end up at a "secret beach."  Click on the song rune.

Congratulations!  Watch the cut scene and then run home to become a Bard.

BEASTMASTER (JEUNO)
_______________________________

An NPC by the name of Dietmund can be found at (D-11) in Lower Jeuno.
He will come out when you open the merchants door and ask for some night flowers.  These flowers can be found in Qufim, down a path down the cliff at (F-8.)  It is suggested you switch to a level 1 job and just run to the flowers, as they are guarded by a Kraken.  Once you obtain the flowers, return them to Dietmund and watch your cut scene.
Now head to Brutus at the Chocobo House in Upper Jeuno.

Congratulations, you are now a Beast Master!

DARK KNIGHT (BASTOK)
_______________________________

An NPC by the name of Gumbah can be found at (J-7) in the Bastok Mines, on the Second level.  He will send you to Palborough Mines.  Once you get there, you must board the boat at (H-8) and go back to the Zeruhn
Mines.  You will receive a cut scene and a two-handed sword called
Chaosbringer.  Once you receive this sword, you must kill 100 enemies in the same zone.  (Which zone you kill them in does NOT matter, however, you CANNOT leave the zone.)  Once you have accomplished this task, head to Beadeaux, located at the Southeast exit of Pashow
Marshlands.

Congratulations, you are now a Dark Knight!

DRAGOON (SAN D'ORIA)
_______________________________

NPC's by the names of Arminibit and Ceraulin can be found in Port
San d'Oria, in Cargo Room A at (I-10)  Speak with them, then head to Chateau d'Oraguille, then down to Bostaunieux Oubliette. Head down the first path on the right and meet Novalmauge.  Speak with him, then head to the Cathedral in Northern San d'Oria (L-7) and speak with
Morjean and Oiheaurese.  Make sure to have a few pickaxes on hand, then head to the Shakrami Maze.  Look for excavation points at (G-7) or (I-8)
You are looking for a Dragon Egg.  Once you get one, go back and talk to
Morjean.  He will send you to Yachemidot.  Accept the quest and head to the Meriphataud Mountains. To the east of (K-8) will be the end of
Drogaroga's Spine.  There will be a ??? place.  Trade the egg to it, and an event will occur.  Go back to the Chateau d'Oraguille and speak to
Rahal in the Knight's Quarters.  Now you must head to the Ghelsba Outpost and defeat a dragon.  The dragon is in a hut at (G-10) behind a "secret" door.

After defeating the dragon, you get another item.  You must take this item all the way back to Windurst and trade it to a Cardian.  It doesn't matter which Cardian, but you must trade it to one of them.  Then the
Cardian will give you a whistle.  With this whistle you must head out to the ocean and blow it three times.  Your wyvern will appear, and you must defeat it.

No, I'm just kidding.  After you defeat the Dragon at Ghelsba Outpost you get your Wyvern and your Dragoon job.

Congratulations, you are now a Dragoon!

NINJA (BASTOK)
_______________________________

An NPC by the name of Kaede can be found in Port Bastok at (I-5) After speaking with Kaede, you must go to (F-5) and speak with Kagetora.  Now head back to Kaede's house, and talk to Ensetsu.  Head to Korrolaka
Tunnel.  Head to position (K-8). To get there you must first go to (A-9) which will transfer you to (N-8).  Now head to (G-8) and you will be transferred to (I-11).  Now head to (K-8) and you will find some coral.
There will be three "named" leeches, defeat them, and click on the ??? area.  You will receive a key item.  Now head back to Ensetsu, then Norg then Ryoma.

Congratulations, you are now a Ninja!

PALADIN (SAN D'ORIA)
_______________________________

An NPC by the name of Balasiel will be on the bridge in Southern San
d'Oria at (F-7).  He will ask you to bring him a Revival Tree Root, which can be purchased from the Auction House (not very expensive) or can be found from various Undead creatures.  I have only gotten it from Hounds, but others may drop them.  Next, he will ask you for another item which can be obtained from a cave in La Theine.  Go to (G-7) to find a small pool of water.  Touch the ??? and then quickly touch the other ??? area which is close to the one you originally touched (sandy area).  You should receive another item.  Bring it back to Balasiel, and he will ask you for a final item.  Talk to the guards on the second floor of the Eastern and Western Guard Posts, Cahaurme at (J-9) and Baurise at
(H-9).  Next you must head to Davoi's Disused Well at (E-10).  You will receive an item.  Bring it back to Balasiel and he will give you a Kite
Shield.

Congratulations!  You are now a Paladin!

RANGER (WINDURST)

An NPC by the name of Perih Vashai can be found in Windurst Woods at (K-7).  He will ask you to go watch a Saber tooth die, and then request you to bring his bones back.  Go to Zoromugh Hills at (L-10) and find the tiger.  Wait for it to die, examine the bones and bring them back to Perih.

Congratulations!  You are now a Ranger!

SAMURAI (NORG)

Speak to Jaucribaix outside of Gilgamesh's Room.  He will ask you for two items, a branch from a tree in a sacred place and iron fillings (from a bomb.) Talk to Ranemaud to receive a Sacred Tree Sapling.  Aeka should be nearby, talk to her to receive Old Iron from the East.  Now you must head to the Konschtat Highlands and trade the Old Iron to a ??? at
(D-8).  A Forger (bomb) will appear.  Kill it to receive Iron Fillings.
Next, you must head to the West side of The Sanctuary of Zi'Tah and use an Axe on the huge tree's ??? point.  A Guardian Treant will appear.
Kill it and then again examine the ??? to receive the branch.  Return to Jaucribaix with these items.  After you give them to him, he will tell you to return in three days.  Come back in three Earth hours, and you will receive an Unsigned Sword.

Congratulations!  You are now a Samurai!

SUMMONER (WINDURST)
_______________________________

An NPC by the name of Ajido-Marujido can be found in Windurst Walls at (G-3).  After talking to the Tarutaru, go kill any and all leeches you can find.  Eventually, you will get a stone to drop.  Once you have the item, head back to Windurst Walls and click on the door in the House of the Hero.  After this, you must take the stone and experience each different weather effect.  You can experience the different effects in these areas:

Heat- Valkurm, Rolanberry, Oztroya, Altepa.
Clear Skies- Most anywhere.
Sand- Valkurm, Tahrongi, and Konschtat.
Wind- Tahrongi, Mhaura, and La Theine.
Ice- Xarcabard, Beacedine.
Rain- La Theine, Pashow, and Rolanberry.
Thunder- Konschtat, and Jugner.

You can get a weather forecast from an NPC in pretty much any town.
The weather pattern must be in effect when you enter the area, if not, then the stone won't have experienced it and you have not done it correctly.

Once you have exposed the stone to all seven patterns, you should see a cut-scene after zoning.  After this, head to La Theine and at (G-6) you should see a stone circle.  Trade the stone to the ??? point.

Congratulations! you are now a Summoner!
