Abilities: Reaction
Job classes offer a range of Final Fantasy Tactics reaction abilities to help defend and protect your characters in battle from enemy attacks. Although effects of these skills vary from defensive saves and counterattacks to last-minute restorative spells, they all have one thing in common: their execution is based partly on luck and partly on experience. Even though an attack is supposed to trigger them, that doesn’t mean it will all the time.
The Final Fantasy Tactics reaction abilities list below breaks down each ability by its name, description, trigger, JP cost, job class required, and rating. You can also find a downloadable icon beside each ability name.
