There are basic jobs like swordfighter and mage, as well as advanced jobs that are unlocked as you level up basic jobs. And if you level up the advanced jobs, there may be even higher-ranking jobs waiting for you...!
You can obtain new abilities and jobs from the skill tree progression system. You can collect the job points required to obtain these abilities/jobs by defeating enemies and levelling up.
