To give your party more versatility in combat, you need to unlock Secondary Jobs in Octopath Traveler 2. These bonus jobs can be equipped to any character, and all the starting jobs can be unlocked and equipped to other characters — giving you access to more weapons and abilities. Without Secondary Jobs equipped, your characters will quickly fall behind. There’s more than just levels to unlock in the vast world of Octopath Traveler 2.
Secondary Jobs are associated with Hidden Guilds in this sequel. Each Hidden Guild is located in a city where a Party Member begins their story. The Hidden Guild will always have the matching Party Member’s job — for example, Hikari’s Starting Location has the Warrior Job. The Hidden Guild isn’t always in the starting city, so you’ll want to explore the connecting fields for structures. Despite the name, the Hidden Guilds aren’t exactly well hidden.
After finding a Hidden Guild, simply talk to the NPCs to join. Joining unlocks the Secondary Job — but leveling up is very different. Instead of earning JP, you need to complete quests for the guild. Every guild is different. The more side stories you complete, the more skills you’ll unlock. Secondary Jobs are incredibly important for buffing characters and giving you even more versatility.
