Octopath Traveler II | How To Get Secondary Jobs?

Octopath Traveler II offers a unique gameplay experience where players can unlock secondary jobs for their characters.

Obtaining these secondary jobs is crucial for character progression and allows players to use different weapons and skills. Unlike the first game, the process of unlocking secondary jobs in Octopath Traveler II involves obtaining a job license from the respective guild. Each guild offers two tasks that, upon completion, reward the player with additional licenses for the same secondary job. With this guide, players can easily obtain job licenses and unlock secondary jobs for their characters.

Octopath Traveler II – Secondary Jobs:

To unlock secondary jobs in Octopath Traveler 2, you need to obtain a job license from the guild associated with that job. For example, to get the Cleric secondary job, you need to get a license from the Clerics Guild. The process is simple: visit the guild of the secondary job you want, talk to the guild master, and they will give you the job license. Then, give the license to the character you want to have the secondary job and you will unlock it for them.

If you want more licenses for the same secondary job for other characters, complete tasks for the guilds. Each guild will give you two tasks that let you get two more licenses. As a result, three characters can have the same secondary job simultaneously.

There are twelve guilds in total, each corresponding to a different secondary job. Here is where you can find the guilds for each secondary job:

  • Apothecary Secondary Job: Apothecaries Guild
  • Cleric Secondary Job: Clerics Guild
  • Dancer Secondary Job: Dancers Guild
  • Hunter Secondary Job: Hunters Guild
  • Merchant Secondary Job: Merchants Guild
  • Scholar Secondary Job: Scholars Guild
  • Thief Secondary Job: Thieves Guild
  • Warrior Secondary Job: Warriors Guild
  • Inventor Secondary Job: Inventors Guild
  • Armsmaster Secondary Job: Armsmasters Guild
  • Arcanist Secondary Job: Arcanists Guild
  • Conjurer Secondary Job: Conjurers Guild

 

Once you have unlocked a secondary job, your character can wear the outfit of that job, use its weapons and skills, and even earn experience points for that job. It is important to note that while a character can have multiple secondary jobs, they can only use the skills of one secondary job at a time. Additionally, only primary jobs can learn EX Skills, which are unique and powerful skills specific to each character. To learn these skills, you need to take your character to their respective primary job altar.
