Summoner Job Class – Final Fantasy Tactics
The most powerful magic user! Summoners do the most damage, but their summons are high on MP cost and have a long charge time. It's important to tactically use MP restoration to make up for it. Moogle and Fairy also make Summoners good healers.
Requirements: Time Mage Level Two
Weapons: Rod, Staff Helmets: Hat Armor: Clothes, Robe
The Summoner Job Class is one of the strongest magicians in the game with access to skills that have high effect radii and damage quotients. The Summoner’s magic spells are also incredible to watch and learning them makes this job one worth putting the effort into.
If you plan on investing time into a magician class, the Summoner is probably your best choice. As always, however, there are tradeoffs for all this power and beauty. Summon Magic spells are notoriously expensive and use a lot of time and MP to execute. Furthermore, the Summoner faces the most severe HP and AT strength handicaps, like the Bard, leaving this character always in need of protection.

Reaction Abilities
- MP Restore: When critical you'll regain most of your MP. This isn't an efficient means of MP restoration since Summoners consume MP so quickly.
Support Abilities
- Half of MP: Use your magic half the MP cost. This is a very valuable ability!
Movement Abilities: None
