One of the core features of Stranger of Paradise is its Job system. Taking inspiration from previous Final Fantasy games, players can level Jack up in many Basic Jobs, thereby unlocking Advanced Jobs, which usually do the Basic Jobs…er, job, but better. A few Basic Jobs do not get unlocked right away, and you need to level multiple Basic Jobs up to unlock a specific corresponding Job. Here are all of the Jobs in Stranger of Paradise — and how to unlock them.
