Octopath Traveler: How To Unlock 8 Sub-Jobs & 4 Advanced Jobs | Secret Classes Guide

July 18, 2018 by Kevin Thielenhaus

There are 12 additional jobs you can unlock in Octopath Traveler — you just need to find the right shrines. Here’s how to unlock all the sub-jobs and secret advanced jobs in this magical JRPG.

You’ll find eight party members in Octopath Traveler, and they can be customized even further with these sub-jobs — special jobs that you can equip to each character, giving them all the powers and abilities of that class, essentially giving them twice as many powers, weapons, or abilities.

After unlocking a sub-job, you can equip it to any character. These extra jobs aren’t unique — they’re essentially copies of all the other character jobs in the game — you can give your favorite characters the jobs of other characters. It’s pretty handy, and gives characters you equip the jobs to a lot more flexibility in combat.

You’re going to want these sub-jobs, and the ultra-powerful advanced jobs — find the shrine locations below. If you’re still on the fence about this fresh Nintendo Switch JRPG, check out our Octopath Traveler video review here.
