[[Category:Terminology]]__NOTOC__

A Support Job (subjob) is a secondary [[Jobs|job]] that can be equipped to allow a character to use its [[:Category:Job Abilities|Abilities]] and [[:Category:Job Traits|Traits]], and to benefit from its [[:Category:Stats|Stats]] and [[:Category:Combat Skills|Combat Skills]].
*A Support Job can be chosen in your [[Mog House]] or by talking with a [[Nomad Moogle]] as with your Main Job.
*Equipping a Support Job does not affect the [[Experience Points]] of the [[Main Job]].
*An equipped Support Job does not gain any experience points, so to raise the level of a Support Job, you must switch it to be your Main Job.

==How To Obtain==
In order to gain the ability to equip a Support Job, a character must first reach Level 18 in a job, then complete one of the following [[quest]]s:
*[[Elder Memories]], from [[Isacio]], at (G-10) in [[Selbina]], or
*[[The Old Lady]], from [[Vera]], at (G-10) in [[Mhaura]].

==Limitations==
* The equipped Support Job is restricted to half the [[level]] of the selected [[Main Job]], and, as such, only gives access to [[:Category:Job Abilities|Job Abilities]] and [[:Category:Job Traits|Job Traits]] available up to the displayed level.
* The Support Job's [[Two Hour Ability]] cannot be used.
* Your support job does not play a role in what equipment you can use; only your main job influences it, with the exception of certain latent effects present on some items.
* Characters will not gain skill-ups to [[:Category:Combat Skills|Combat Skills]] (including [[Magic Skills]]) which are usable only because of their Support Job.
:* Also, you cannot [[Merit]] skills that are acquired only through your support job.
* You do not get full benefit of MP from your support job. The exact penalty has not been fully mapped out; however, a cursory examination appears to indicate a retention of 50% or less of your original MP. A SMN7/BRD3 may have 80 MP, whereas the same char as BRD20/SMN7 has only 40 MP. In contrast, an actual MP-using main job will get even ''less'' than 40 MP from the SMN7 support job.
*Certain 'stance' abilities such as [[Composure]] and [[Afflatus Solace]] are not available to a Support Job.
===Job-Specific Limitations===
* With [[Bard Support Job]], you cannot equip [[Instruments]] and therefore are limited to only one song at a time.
* With [[Beastmaster Support Job]], you cannot equip Jugs/Broths and therefore are unable to use [[Call Beast]]. Also, it is theorized that charm difficulty and duration is dependent on the level of BST main; for example, in order for a level 70 PLD to charm mobs effectively with BST subjob, they will need a level 70 BST main.
* With [[Corsair Support Job]], you are limited to only one roll at a time, and that roll's potency is equal to COR Level/Target level * Normal Potency. Ie: A 75/37COR will buff up to 50% Potency on itself and other 75s. A 75/25COR will buff up 33% Potency on itself and other 75s. ''(for example: if Chaos Roll gives 31% as COR70 to level 70s, it'd only gives 15.5%[half potency] as /COR35)'' Job bonuses do apply.
* With [[Dancer Support Job]], Steps will grant only one [[Finishing Move]], instead of two.
* With [[Dragoon Support Job]], you cannot access the [[Call Wyvern]] job ability or use the [[Spirit Link]] job ability.
* With [[Ninja Support Job]], you cannot access the job abilities [[Yonin]] and [[Innin]]. {{Verification}}
* With [[Puppetmaster Support Job]], equipping an [[Automaton]] can still raise the stats during combat.
:''Whether or not this is a bug is unknown.''
* With [[Ranger Support Job]], you cannot access the [[Velocity Shot]] job ability.
* With [[Samurai Support Job]], [[Zanshin]] will activate on 25% of missed hits instead of 45%. [[Meditate]] will grant 60% TP instead of 100%.
* With [[Thief Support Job]], [[Sneak Attack]] and [[Trick Attack]] do not gain the benefits from DEX and AGI. Additionally, the ability [[Hide]] will not break the attention of enemies already targeting you.
* With [[White Mage Support Job]], you cannot access the job abilities [[Afflatus Solace]] and [[Afflatus Misery]].
