Ragnarok DS :: Job Guide 2b3l3d

Jul 20, 2015

There are 14 jobs in Ragnarok DS that are from the PC version of the game. Of these original 14, seven of them are available immediately as a first job for any character. After advancing through a first job, a second job will be unlocked for the character to take. Each first job has a different second job. For example, the second job for Swordsman is Knight while for Archer, it is Hunter.

In addition to the original 14 jobs, there are two jobs that can only be found in the DS version of Ragnarok: Dark Knight and Shaman. However, there is no second job to unlock for these two new jobs.

Swordsman and Knight 4m6l25

The Swordsman is the most basic close range Knight can also equip very strong armor with high defense stats. Because of this, it is a good idea to send your Swordsman to the front of the battle and absorb damage, protecting your weaker characters.

The Swordsman and Knight can use tank that can take and give solid hits.

Magician and Wizard 6d4j2g

The Magician and Wizard are powerful range attackers that use armor either. Still, do not waste time boosting any stat other than intelligence and agility, you want to make those magic attacks hurt as much as possible. If you have them, use the Isilla and Wanderer cards on equipment to help the Magician's flee rate. The Succubus card is also good for the Magician/Wizard, as it boosts HP.

Archer and Hunter 1tn27

The Archer and Hunter can attack from close up and far away. However, it is probably a better idea to focus on range attacks because there are very few jobs that allows you to do so. When the character takes the second job of Hunter, he will be able to lay Falcon to fight.

Boost mainly the agility and dexterity of the Archer and Hunter and get him the best dagger.

Thief and Assassin 1k322n

The dagger is much better for the Assassin. The goal of this job is to focus on the critical hits. When levelling up, focus on boosting the agility and luck stats. Once you can take the Assassin job, you will be able to use the Katar weapon, which doubles the critical hit rate. Combined with the double attack skill, this is very deadly! Do boost the strength stat a little too, as you cannot always depend on a critical hit.

Acolyte and Priest 5r5i6t

As one of the only jobs in the game, you should not be using the Acolyte/Priest to fight. Instead, keep them away from the battle and use them to heal and boost the attack and defense of the other characters. Do your best to keep this character alive, because his ability to revive is important. luck should be the stats that you focus on for these two jobs. If you have good cards that boost magicial "attack", you can use them for your Acolyte/Priest so that you do not need to boost the luck stat as much and can focus on other things.

Merchant and Blacksmith 311c3l

The Merchant and Magnitude skill, combined with good strength and dexerity stats, is probably the best attack in the whole game. It will be very useful in the Mirage Tower. Along with strength and dexterity, you should also boost vitality for the Merchant/Blacksmith. If you have a Phreoni card, you can use that instead of focusing a lot on dexerity.

Taekwon Kid and Taekwon Master 2x5dq

This close up fighting job is neat because you do not equip any weapons. Focus on boosting the strength and weapon. Of course, put some points into vitality too so that he can survive in the front lines.

Dark Knight 5351m

The Dark Knight can use the spear weapons. He has a pretty high critical hit rate, which makes him a bit like the Thief and Assassin. As such, focus on boosting agility, strength and luck when you use him. The Muramasa sword is very good for this job.

Shaman 3c6ix

The Shaman is the only other job in the game, but is not better than the Acolyte/Priest. He is able to restore HP and SP and can boost the Priest, focus on boosting the intelligence and vitality stats.
