Soldier
*Defense increased
+Concept: Rends can be used from distance with added chance for a status. A strong but risky damage skill is added for late game.
-First Aid: regen added, 1 range
-Rend Power: 4 range, chance to blind
-Rend Magic: 4 range, chance to silence
-Rend MP: 4 range, chance to berserk
-Rend Speed: 4 range, chance to slow
-Provoke: 4 range
-Duel (replaces Gauge): 2x weapon damage, self-damage for 0.2x of current HP

Thief
*MP and Speed increased
+Concept: Thieves may steal items, but their trickery doesn't end there. They can steal your health, speed, charm you, and vanish into the shadows.
-Steal Blood : magic damage, drain
-Plunder: half damage, steal more gil
-Windrun: slows enemy, hastes self (no text but effect applies)
-Captivate: charm
-Shadowstep: vanish, increasing accuracy and movement, but decreases speed
-Steal Equipment: half damage, steals hat/armor/shield
-Retains Loot Lv. 4, Steal Accessory

White Mage
*Speed increased
+Concept: White mage in FFTA2 vanilla is a healbot, and even so still worse at healing than Red Mage or Summoner. Add Protect and Shell back, but only available later on.
-Esuna: removes most statuses
-Fortify: protect and shell AoE, allies only, slight damage upon cast

Black Mage
*Hume and Moogle Magick increased (parity with Nu Mou)
+Concept: Have -aga spells bypass elemental resists so Black mages are not useless against full elemental resists. Furthermore, differentiate between the three elements.
-Base skills: no AoE
-ara skills: +1 AoE
-aga skills: bypass defense
-Fire skills: +1 AoE, weaker
-Thunder skills: stronger
-Ice Skills: more range

Archer
*Hume Attack increased (parity with Viera)
+Concept: If you're shot in the arm or leg, then obviously you should take damage along with being inflicted status.
-Focus: accuracy added
-Take Aim: full damage
-Leg Shot: half damage
-Arm Shot: half damage
-Blackout: half damage

Paladin
-Holy Blade: double damage

Fighter
+Concept: This class is fine, but adding some flavors wouldn't hurt.
-Air Render: wind damage
-Aurablast: holy damage

Parivir
+Concept: This job does way too much damage, but it's also a mid-late game class that deserves to be stronger than the beginner classes. Therefore, instead of 2x damage on their attacks, I'm testing 1x damage + bypassing defense.
-Wind Slash: lower base, always hit
-Elemental blades: 1x damage, bypass defense

Ninja
+Concept: While this class is strong enough due to Dual Wield, it's a shame if that's all you ever use it for. Now, veils are not supposed to do a lot of damage, but having increased ranged to inflict status does help.
-Veils: 6 range
-Oblivion: same damage as veil, 1 range

Illusionist
+Concept: If Illusionists do less damage, then this nerfs Illusionist + Seer combo. If their spells also cost less MP, then it also helps early game Illusionists to be more useful, when you do not have Halve MP or Recharge. Having to wait 3 turns before casting something is boring.
-Spells cost less MP and do less damage

Hunter
*Attack and Speed increased (indirect Sniper nerf)
+Concept: While this class is strong due to Ultima and Sidewinder, Sidewinder is still worse than Doubleshot, so it won't be nerfed.
-Hunting: half damage (buff)

Seer
*Speed increased (parity with White Mage)

Warrior
*Defense increased
+Concept: Make the class more different than Soldier. Body Slam, made stronger, is the signature move of warrior, akin to Soldier's Duel.
-Body Slam: lower base, double damage, 25% chance to addle self on a successful hit

White Monk & Master Monk
*Speed increased
+Concept: Trickster is too speedy, so I decided a speedy physical Bangaa counterpart is warranted.
-Pummel: lower base damage

Dragoon
*Movement is now unobstructed like Gria (can Jump over enemies to move)
*Spears give bonus Jump
+Concept: If you're a Dragoon, then you don't give any fucks about enemies blocking your movement.
-Jump: 6 range (+2)
-Lancet: 2 range (+1)

Defender
-Meltdown: half damage (buff)

Gladiator
+Concept: Their elemental attacks being magical is a waste. Even in the popular Trickster + Gladiator combo, you don't get close enough to anyone to use the melee magic skills. Changing them to physical does not affect the popular combo but allows for other jobs to combo with Gladiator.
-Elemental attacks: AoE around user, physical, weapon-based

Bishop
+Concept: Parity buffs with Black Mage spells are needed now that Black Mage isn't completely useless against elemental resistance.
-Holy: 18 MP (from 32)
-Water: lower base, hurts foes, heals allies (low power), 4 range (+1), 16 MP (+2)
-Aero: 4 range (+1), 12 MP (-2)

Templar
+Concept: Templar is fine, but they don't need two spells that only deal MP damage.
-Silence: 4 range
-Soul sphere: lower base, decrease magic and res, 8 mp

Canonner
+Concept: This class is already very powerful, but Prime is buffed for parity with Flintlock.
-Prime: attack up, accuracy up

Trickster
+Concept: Trickster is basically only used for stats and Ultima. Most of what they do, Archers can do for no MP and better range. Therefore, by buffing their spells, it is not benefitting Trickster + Gladiator but buffs Trickster + Bishop.
-All abilities except Agitate are now weapon ranged instead of 4.
-Agitate: 6 range (+2), 50% accuracy (buff)
-All other abilities: deals half damage upon hit with low base power

Time Mage
*Speed increased
+Concept: With Gravity spells taken from them, Time Mage is only a Hastega bot. By buffing his offensive spells, Time Mage may be a bit more useful.
-Slow: 4 range (+1)
-Stop: 4 range (+1)
-Undo: 4 range (+1), normal accuracy, skill moved to Force Rod (you can get it sooner)

Alchemist
+Concept: Similar to Bishop's Holy, Flare is too expensive for what it does, so it needs a buff. Parity buffs with Black Mage spells are also present. Toad is strong, but chance to hit is still low, so it shouldn't have as much MP as instant death or ultima.
-Protometeor: 4 range (+1)
-Flare: 90 base (parity with Gigaflare), 4 range (+1)
-Poison: 30 base, half damage, chance to poison (weaker version of Bio)
-Toad: 16 MP (-16), 4 range (+1)

Arcanist
-Gravity: 50% accuracy (buff)
-Graviga: 50% accuracy (buff), 24 MP

Sage
+Concept: Similar to Toad's huge MP cost, why does Scathe and Gigaflare cost the same as Ultima or Last Breath?
-Blind: AoE
-Scathe: 24 MP (-8)
-Esunaga: removes ALL debuffs
-Gigaflare: 24 MP (-8)
-Bio: 4 range (+1)

Scholar
+Concept: Everyone knows you're supposed to use Scholar with everyone absorbing one element. However, that setup is not very achievable early, so it's okay to give Scholar a low power spell that doesn't destroy his allies.
-Illumination: hits foes, heals allies, low damage, holy (replaces Mad Scientist)

Beastmaster
*Speed increase, Attack decreased, Magick increased
-All skills: 4 range

Fencer
*Jump 3 (+1)
-Swarmstrike: full damage, 4 mp
-Shadowstick: 4 range (fixed), chance to slow
-Featherblow: full damage
-Nighthawk: 4 mp

Green Mage
*Defense increased
-Blind: AoE
-Oil: AoE

Elementalist
+Concept: Elementalists feel very underwhelming when compared to other Viera magic classes, and especially to Juggler. A buff is needed.
-All damage spells has a chance to lower resistance

Red Mage
*Speed adjusted to be between White mage and Black mage

Spellblade
-Each blade now has a separate element for variety

Summoner
-Unicorn: lower base, 24 mp (higher)
-Phoenix: lower base, 36 mp (higher)
-Damage summons: lower base, same mp

Assassin
-All skills have changed MP costs
-Aphonia and Ague: half damage (buff)

Sniper
+Concept: Sniper probably has the best "attack twice" skill because Double Shot has no weapon, range, or base power restriction. Simply put, it's just too safe to plink away with a bow.
-Volley (replaces Doubleshot): 3 attacks, damage halved each arrow (total 1.75x damage)
-Beso Toxico: 8 mp

Moogle Race
*Speed increased, base HP decreased, base Defense decreased, base Resistance decreased
+Concept: simply put, I want to make these little buggers faster and more fragile

Animist
+Concept: As a support tank, Animist had way too huge MP costs. The changes are geared towards supporting and offers no extra damage buff.
-100% Wool: AoE on self
-Cuisine: 16 mp (buff)
-Toadsong: 12 mp (buff)
-Catnip: 4 range
-Friend: mp removed

Moogle Knight
+Concept: Some may argue that Moogle Knight is already too strong, but that's only because they use Fusilier skills while waiting for Ultima, ignoring the rest of Moogle Knight's skillset. Thus, buffing Moogle Knight doesn't affect the Fusilier + Moogle Knight combo yet makes other combos possible.
-Moogle Focus (replaces Moogle Guard): defend and focus (increases defense, resistance, and attack for the next turn)
-Moogle Lance: 04 range, bypass defense (it should pierce like its name implies)
-Moogle Shield: astra and shell
-Moogle Aid: 1 range (parity with First Aid, but remove debuffs instead of regen)

Juggler
+Concept: Although Juggler doesn't need a buff, Smile Toss does come very late and I replaced Gil Toss with an AoE ability, Grenade. While it might seem powerful, it costs a lot of MP and does magic damage, which Jugglers should not have a high amount of.
-Ball Toss: does damage like the other abilities
-Grenade (replaces Gil Toss): 40 base magic AoE fire damage, 16 mp

Tinker
*Speed increased
+Concept: Even in the best scenario, which is casting debuffs with your entire party wearing immunity, your Tinker is still sitting around half of the turns wasting MP. Therefore, Tinkers should always target allies or foes depending on the spell, with steeper MP costs.
-Red Spring, Gold Battery, Gold Moogletron always hit allies
-Green Gear, Silver Disc, Black Ingot, Chroma Gem always hit foes
-Blue Screw hits everyone
-Black Ingot: Immobilize instead of Doom
-Gold Battery: lower base
-All skills have MP costs adjusted (nerfed)

Chocobo Knight
*Attack and Magick increased
*Axes now have +Magick (indirect buff)
+Concept: This thing just needs buffs badly...
-Choco Cure: 12 mp (indirect buff for White Mage)
-Choco Beak: lower base, double damage

Flintlock
+Concept: Prime sucks.
-Prime is no longer needed
-Prime: increase attack and accuracy
-Cure, Protect, Shell, Ether Cannons: 8 mp
-Cure Cannon, Ether Boost, Blowback: lower base
-Teleport Cannon: normal accuracy

Berserker
+Concept: Similar to Soldier and Warrior, I want to give Berserker their signature move, which is Battle Rage.
-Scream: also removes weak debuffs on self
-Battle Rage (replaces Hone Senses): 2x damage, full accuracy, user suffers defense and resistance down
-Furore: higher base
-Inner Calm: adds critical up (combined with Hone Senses)

Ranger
+Concept: Mirror Items needs a nerf....
-Mirror Any Potion: nerfed
-Mirror Phoenix Down: damage cap added

Lanista
-Block!: half chance to grant Astra also
-Strike!: half chance to increase accuracy also

Viking
*Axes now have +Magick (indirect buff)
+Concept: Thunder spells are tied with Black mage, so we can't change them. So we put +Magick on axes to give their magic spells a buff. This also buffs Chocobo Knight, but that class also needs a buff.
-Tsunami: lower base, no longer requires water, physical damage, no longer damages MP, 12 MP (+4)
-Pickpocket: makes foe berserk if steal is successful

Ravager
+Concept: Sneak Attack doesn't need a buff, but if the skill is called "sneak attack," then it should be harder to miss.
-Battle Cry: now also increases critical
-Sneak Attack: higher accuracy (not perfect)

Geomancer
+Concept: Even though their skills are 6 range, they're too weak, considering the restrictions placed.
-Nature's Embrace: 4 range, AoE, air damage
-All other spells: increased base damage, AoE spells gain height difference
-Mist Storm: 20 mp (-4)
-Artifice, Life, Earth's Embrace: now has an element associated to it

Sky Pirate
-Trophy Hunt: full damage
-Life of Crime: better accuracy

Dancer
-Blade Dance: 8 mp
-Mincing Minuet: hits all foes, lower base, half accuracy, half damage, 8 mp
-All Other Dances: hits all foes, half accuracy, 4 mp

Bard
-Requiem: hits all zombies and zombie corpses, 4 mp
-All Other Songs: hits all allies, half accuracy, 4 mp
-Magick Ballad and Soul Etude: heals even zombies, 8 mp

Heritor
-Viola: 4 range (nerf), half damage (buff)
-Adelaid: all stats up, regen
