The following is a list of jobs from Final Fantasy XI. Six basic jobs are available at the start of the game. One is chosen by the player when their character is created; this choice will decide what equipment the character starts with (e.g. mages may get a spell scroll; melees may get an extra piece of armor). After attaining level 30 in a basic job, 14 advanced jobs become available for the player to obtain, each requiring a quest to be completed first.
