Easy Job Points (JP) Final Fantasy Tactics | Just the Tips

[@kokumjoe1978]

I searched up how to get jp as in jojo points but great video 👍

[@Kairi091]

Haha that's awesome :)

[@SageLakshmi]

I used to use a similar method, have all characters accumulate while the last enemy is kept alive. But I always used to have ramza with the yell ability and someone in the party with time magic for haste and another person in the party carefully positioned that would chakra everyone including the enemy. Non stop JP at a very quick and efficient rate

[@NomadSoulfire]

this is the same thing I did

[@luke-i1w]

This is the way.

[@FIGSANE]

That Yell comes in clutch. I remember playing this game when I was 12yo- I didn’t know what the hell I was doing, and I thought Ramza was trash. Now he’s my favorite unit to use for this precise reason. Who needs T.G. CID to break enemy armor, when you can break the game with Ramza.

[@lordpoundcake2317]

I used to do the same as well.

[@pc4mlc451]

Yep. This seems to be the most efficient method.

[@briankenney9528]

Nother thing to note: characters get passive jp when an ally does a thing. That passive jp is in the class of the ally and is 1/4 of the base jp they earned [ignoring earned jp up]

[@andrewhackney6286]

I beat the game several times before learning about the hold square glitch. Now I use it every time I start a new play through, because ain't no body got time for that.

[@Daniel_TheAnimator]

I can't believe you're giving me so much nostalgia, From your intro as the Ps1 startup and using the Final Fantasy Tactics OST - Attack Team Time passes by..

[@jasonbell791]

I set a monk in the middle, and a time mage and just made sure people could do something every round. I'd mostly ignore enemies or target them as they came into range. Monk in the middle was for chakra to heal and restore magic for people on the outside.

[@Guillute]

I leave 1 enemy and then put my soldiers in line a straight line. The one in the back hit the one in the front. The one in the middle usually a monk heals the front and back. The enemy can't harm you if level enought

[@Kairi091]

Yep that'll work! It's super cool how different people have different cool ideas.

[@charlesgrybosky1916]

When I played this game back in the day, my favorite strategy to gain JP was to equip all the characters I want to train with Throw Stone and Gain JP Up. I would then look for random battles in forest/plains areas trying to find a battle with a yellow chocobo. I then employed what I called the "Everybody Must Get Stoned" technique. It basically involved killing all the enemies except a chocobo, cornering it (one of the corners of the battlefield works best), and knocking it to about half HP. Then everyone just throws rocks at it, making sure not to do enough damage to kill it. It will use Choco Cure on itself, thereby restoring HP. If you feel you are going to do too much damage with the throw, just aim for another character or have that character do something else. You also have to watch Monks in particular, as they tend to do a lot of damage with the rock throws. If you are careful, you can keep this up indefinitely. I must say the strategies outlined in this video beat this trick all to hell.

[@Taterzz]

i used to use the accumulate/1 PA punch (for unique units), until i tried the berserked frog method. dropping the enemy to 1 speed and 1 PA, while also putting your unit to 1 PA is great. having at least 800 or so hp to run through (1 hp at a time) is enough to spillover 9999 JP to everyone. takes roughly an hour of real time unless you speed it up, but the benefit is you have to do nothing. 500 hp is around 6000 spillover. the good news is that this can be done anywhere, and you can frog multiple enemies if you need that 9999 JP for some raisin. beats inputting manually a million times, even though that may be faster.

[@minifluff201]

I use to use dances to auto do the battle and there is another glitch were you can learn all the skills of a dead enemy. I believe it was you select the last skill in the list and you learn them all.

[@herveglandu4847]

Tested it and aprove it. Don't forget to unlock " gain JP up" (squire passive ability) for all of your characters to optimise the tips.

[@CleetusBuckwalter]

I'm playing this now and tbh I just get the squire ability focus/ accumulate Kill all but one enemy, weaken him so he runs and spam focus with all other characters. You can do this forever. Obviously have JP up on everyone.

[@Kairi091]

Yep yep! That'll do it. There are a couple of special chars like Agrias and Mustadio who can't do Focus/Accumulate, but you can just have them steal Gil or whatever.

[@jaimereupert4247]

The only problem is not all monsters run away when low on HP. I had a goblin in critical condition and he followed me all the way to the other side of the map to attack.

[@le555]

I followed your steps and now I have enough job points to be the next CEO at square enix. First thing Im going to do is create a remake of FFT then nerf JP gain and fix the cheats so no one else can be CEO.

[@larrywolf2509]

No mention of just endlessly spamming Focus every turn? Or hasting everyone and slowing the one remaining enemy so you don't have to worry about it doing anything much?

[@Kairi091]

That's sorta what the JP Set-up is all about. Incapacitate the enemy (using slow or don't move/don't act or sleep or whatever) and then just do whatever to gain JP (use accumulate/focus, attack party members, etc)

[@davidames793]

i always start by gaining accumulate to raise attack and jp up. then spam accumulate in battle. while 1 or 2 characters play with the last enemy. becomes easier with a monk since you can restore hp and mp with chakra. NOTE: dont have counter/counter tackle on while doing this. ive ended alot of battles witha gutsy goblin trying to attack with little hp left instead of running a way

[@agmcroom2374]

Just learn focus with all the characters in squire and keep fundamentals equipped with each character. Use focus when their is nothing to do and you will always get 10 experience points and a lot of jp each turn. Not to mention gaining 1 attack point each turn.

[@DwillGame]

Unfortunately this doesn't work for special characters

[@Mr.Faust3]

there's something nostalgic about this video

[@Romanoff.Kalashnikov]

I wanna asked, why in random battle with monster they always retaliate when I attack in Final Fantasy Tactics? it make the game so hard because they usually can one hit many of my character when they retaliate :(

[@komradeklutch6215]

I definitely recommend that everyone plays the game through The first time trying to do as little extra grinding is possible as it makes the story battles feel a little weak and then causes a weird game imbalance as random battles feel heavier than story battles. That said after the first playthrough, it's fun to try to do things differently. I'm currently doing a monsters only run. Also, as long as you've played the game through normally once I wouldn't frown upon anybody who wants to use a infinite JP gameshark code or anything. The kids to enjoy the game and I feel like once you've played it through adequately at least once then it's just time to see how much fun you can have doing different things without wasting too much time. Time is precious.

[@Kairi091]

@@komradeklutch6215 A monsters only run??? What do you, just grind to get a mediator right away and then invite some chocobos and goblins from Mandalia plains?

[@mxx720]

I thought everyone knew the chocobo exploit: Kill everything but a yellow chocobo. Use a Knight to Power Break until it can only do 1hp damage, surround it on all 4 sides with your party members and keep attacking. Yellow chocobos self-heal when their HP is down, which also heals the squares around it, so you'll always be up to full. Just unequip weapons and you won't have to worry about accidentally critting it to death.

[@hansgulbranson9506]

Waiting allows you to start higher CT next round of turns.

[@seanziegler477]

your incapacitate method is pretty well known, and easily done without incapacitating an enemy. You can do this as early as the first possible random encounter zone, mandalia plains. Literally all you need is squires and chemist(s) It actually works really well using the chocobos that spawn there. Also, I wouldnt recommend doing a long grind of JP farming without Gained JP up. You can use this method to easily obtain it for every character before using this method for other things though. The key is to ensure you have at least 1 chemist, and a decent supply of potions. Simply surround and attack, throw stones, dash etc, w/e to gain JP without killing the enemy. Low enough HP chocobos will usually cast choco cure and if surrounded they will heal your party too. Pretty simple way to unlock every class before the story battle in Dorter. While it does take more time and isn't as automated as other methods, its very easy to gain access to the level 4 black magic, summons, dragon spirit, equip sword, two swords, etc very early on in the game. No need to use any glitch's. You could opt to use equip change so you can unequip weapons after surrounding the enemy but its not really worth the loss in JP gain from gained JP up. Very simply and easy method that can be used to legitimately gain JP.

[@MrLocoSuave]

And why would you waste precious life time with that when you can just glitch and move on 😃

[@KooriGaymer]

I prefer to use this glitch than to start the game all over again, because I can't get past Wiegraf, I've tried everything. It was going to start all over again. PSX version. Thank you for the video

[@nguyenquocau1968]

If you have a hacked game link, please download the link, thank you.

[@razrayk8470]

My strat for wiegraf is to get auto-potion in ramza, sell all potions but the strongest ones, make Ramza a lancer (Dragoon on wotl) and just spam jump, Mustadio as a chemist is kinda nice too, for the rest of the party could be another dragoon and a black mage. Highly recommended to give everyone auto-pot but usually I just give it to Ramza

[@Joshua.670]

I leave 1 enemy left then throw stones at each other Just imagine ur the last one standing and u hear ur enemies leader say STONE FIGHT and they start throwing rocks everywhere and your like wtf.....

[@ippatsu9]

there is a very easy way to get Jp get the Monk class for your team with chackra so he can heal infinitly and go to a map with lots of chocobos as they can heal and place it on a healing priority auto paly no one will die and the enemy will not die. in options un-check action confermation. leave the game on for 24 hours. next day all the Jp you need.

[@Kairi091]

That's a crazy cool idea.

[@ippatsu9]

@@Kairi091 I like to do other tricks . like get your Faith down as low as possible I think the lowest is 1. that way 99% of magic will not work on you . so you are safe from deadly magic and you can heal with chackra becaus its not magic.

[@Rafa_turtlepower]

Wiegraf won't even know what hit him... -menacing laughter-

[@joshjoaquindelcarmen8781]

Speedrun to get ninja's vanish (at least two people and both female). Go to one of the corners and spam dance (polka first, speed down, then damage). The rest will then do focus (squire ability). Make sure the position of the two units is positioned in a way that not one enemy can pass by. Once they are hit by an enemy, they vanish but still preform the dance. The enemies will have no chance to deal any damage ahahahah. I did this in the chapter 1 plains and is very effective.

[@christophercardarelli1328]

Usually I set up on having my whole sqaud to get jp up and Accumulate with Squire. Then I work on each of them trying to get Calcutor job and get move-get jp. I go to Mandalia Plains to get my jp. Have them attack and kill every Chocobo and Panters and leave a single red goblin since they movement is low. For equipment.. I usually get them all battle boots to have this really work. I leave the red goblin alive and use Accumulate and move away from the Goblin. The poor red Goblin try to catch up but can't. Using Accumulate and JP up. Your jp is going shoot up skyhigh. If you have move-get jp up then extra 8-10 jp when you move you character aswell. This very easy to get all your jobs masters very easily. Just finished chapter 1 in 10 hrs and got most my beginning jobs master already. My characters are level 20- 30. Basically I am pretty set to finish the game with ease.

[@chrissre7935]

On PSP version JP squire skill costs 250. :/

[@kaizerLS161]

A little bit late and everyone surely known this already but... there's a skill from the Calculator job that literally gives you JP just for moving around... it´s not easy to unlock the Calculator's job but i think for that skill it's worth it

[@7792pnaurfr]

By the time you've reached that job, you don't really need it. And it's not a lot of JP

[@biggains1]

I see no downside to the infinite jp glitch. If it goes to zero reload and/or just retry right? So really only negative is yes you cheated. But you could just be selective once you have the JP, just get stuff you might have probly earned within certain chapters ya know? Like regulate yourself and dont actually unlock those top tier abilities until a bit later, saves ya the grind and u can just enjoy the game.

[@Kairi091]

Yeah that makes sense.

[@guillermogimenez840]

Another tip. Try not to use MOVE, since that consumes more CT. If you just ACT and wait, you fill your CT faster, hence more JP and EXP faster

[@thepizzaguyishere273]

note: the JP glitch on the PS1 version only works on jobs that have enough skills that the list has to scroll

[@Kairi091]

Yep, and it also is unpredictable. I've had it erase all my JP and give me nothing LOL. It's a glitch. You just never know what it's gonna do.

[@heiitsme182]

Great video, i ussually use technique that turn everybody including the enemy to frog then use Berserk AI and keep one normal to heal the enemy, very funny but sometime its not effective

[@aikqnextgeneration]

For rookie as me I want to know If I choose job like Chemist when I got JP in battle it always gain for Chemist Did I got it? I don't understand about Job point And If I need more job point on other job I must change job right?

[@Kairi091]

Yes, you're right! If you choose chemist, that character will only gain chemist JP in battle. However, your other characters in the battle will also gain a very small amount of chemist JP everytime your chemist gains JP. Basically, just make your character into whatever job you want them to gain a lot of JP for and then go into battle. let me know if this works for you!! I love this game. It is my favorite game

[@justmeok2]

If i want to earn squire jp, i need to have that job equipped?

[@Kairi091]

Yes. In order to earn Squire JP, the character must be a squire. If you have a Squire in your party earning JP, other characters in your party will also earn a small amount of Squire JP when the Squire earns some. But the answer is yes. To get Squire JP, you must have a Squire in your party earning JP.

Gain jp up and accumulate are the best healer in the middle monk is the best and surround your healer and accumulate up keep all the way fast way to level your toons.

[@sebastienmorin5149]

the best automated jp farming that i found need Ramza who know yell and at least one character who know the knight ability speed break, power break and mind break, then a character who know frog from the black mage ability and a character who know chacra from the monk ability... (note all abilities can fit into two characters, Ramza as a squire/black mage and the other is a knight/monk... for more efficency, the knight should not be the wizard and the remaining characters may have knight, monk or wizard with thoses abilities as a second job) then catch a random battle at Mandalia plains from the Gariland magic city side, for the setup part, better staying in the corner where the party appears, using thoses rocks as a shelter to prevent beeing circled by the enemies while they are still powerfull first speed/power/mind break every enemies until their values are 1 while transforming them into frog... (the monk makes sure to resuplie the wizard with mp) then use yell and speed/power break on the party members to make them all to speed 10... and power 1 then frog all party members... making sure that the monk is the last to be froggified... (as a frog, the only spell a black mage can cast is frog)... then the black mage spend all of his remaining mp on casting magic on a empty spot... (makes sure than the enemy can not reach that spot, because they will try it if they can and it would ruin everythig) when there is no more way to retransform from frog (casting frog one time change the character into a frog, casting frog on a frogged target return him back to his original form)... then i set all party members to auto-battle/save fading life... and wait... all characters should deal 1 damage point, but because your team speed is set to 10 and the enemy speed is set to 1... you should never be surrounded... the only thing to check is thoses crystals left when a character dies... if the wizard lay his hand on it, he will try to defrog everyone...

Why do you give a warning for the jp scroll glitch? Nothing bad can happen, the worst thing that happens is your jp decreases without unlocking anything and then you can't afford any abilities anymore. Oh well, just earn more jp. This glitch is the main reason I prefer the ps1 version for its replayability. After the 20th time of playing through the game, its not fun or challenging to grind chemist jp, and if I want to make the game more challenging, there are lots of more interesting handicaps that I can apply to my characters. Grinding JP aint fun.

[@magnifiedspace2557]

This is so backwards and unnecessary. lmfao Do it like this, Seriously.. 1. Get Accumulate in Squire for all characters. 2. Get the 'speed up' for your main character. 3. Enter a Battle and have your main constantly getting "fast" while you kill the monsters. 4. Retreat all allies to the corner and spam Accumulate. 5. Staying exactly +1 space from enemy with main will ensure they never move towards your units. 6. Profit. You can go all the way up to 50 attack power EACH battle. Normally takes 2 battles to MASTER any class in the game.
