Augments

Fully updated for The Zodiac Age!

Unlike the Magicks and Technicks, Augments are passive abilities that permanently increase character stats. While they may not seem as enticing as a shiny new weapon or piece of armor, many are extremely useful and a great way to spend License Points (LP).

Augments (The Zodiac Age)

Note that the same nodes between two jobs for a single character do not stack; therefore, having too much overlap can be wasteful. Although almost all job combinations are viable, some are better than others. It’s important to plan accordingly.
