Hi to all
I am almost a noob ..., just arrived at lvl 29 with my lancer.
I was thinking about level as marauder (up to 15) to pick the job of dragoon.
I was thinking that as dragoon I will have some exclusive actions ... but I can only choose actions from few other classes (if I understand well) among archer, lancer and marauder. Instead if I continue as lancer I have the possibility to choose actions from every other class (so ... more freedom).
I was asking what advise have you for me: have I to pick the job as dragoon or is better to continue as lancers (up to 50) ?

You can switch between jobs at any point in time really. If you desperately want your Cures, Stoneskin and Protect, take the job crystal off and just play as a lancer for the solo content. If there's a healer with you in the party, then there's no need for that and you can opt for the larger stat boosts and abilities Dragoon gives you. It doesnt bind you permanently into having to be a dragoon.

Don't forget that certain abilities from other jobs can be shared with different jobs.

After a certain point, jobs are generally superior for party play, because the flexibility gained from
actions you can take from other classes stop to outweight the power of job-exclusive ones.

Is there a list or something somewhere of the Job abilities that are shared? along with the class abilities?

I don't think that is true. Do you mean classes?

Just go here and click on the Job or Class you want to know more about at the top of the screen under Disciplines.

All of those are classes not Jobs.

No Job ability is shared only class abilities.
