In "Octopath Traveler" each character can acquire a secondary and secret job to add to their arsenal. Here's how to acquire them.
A big feature in Nintendo and Square Enix's latest JRPG, Octopath Traveler, are the specific jobs assigned to each of the eight characters in the game. Jobs act as classes in Octopath, giving each character special abilities and ways to fight.
However, each character can obtain a secondary job to boost their fighting prowess in-game by finding special shrines littered throughout the world of Octopath Traveler . Here's how to unlock the secondary jobs for each character in Octopath Traveler.
Secondary Jobs: How To Find and Unlock Job Shrine Locations
There are eight Job Shrines throughout the world of Octopath Traveler. Each shrine's location is close to where you find the character with that job. For example, the shrine to get the Hunter job is close to where the H'aanit begins her journey.
Once you find the shrine, simply examine it and decide whether you want to accept the secondary job or not. Here's a list of all the shrines, what job they give and their locations. You can find the starting location for each character marked on the world map shortly after beginning your game.
Apothecary - Shrine of the Healer
