Cross-class skills

Cross-class skill basics

Part of the multi-class system of FFXIV: ARR is the ability for characters to share abilities between classes. This adds another degree of customizability and freedom to any FFXIV account. The moment you unlock your second class, you will gain access to this system. You start out with one cross-class skill slot and get another every ten levels for the very low price of zero FFXIV Gil.

This is part of why leveling all classes is important. You want to get all cross-class skills to maximize potential of your role in your party, even in solo content.

Cross-class skill limitations

To balance the system, not all skills can be shared. Only unlocked cross-skills on the source class can be shared. Traits also cannot be shared, and skills that are affected by traits will only share their base version. Finally, Jobs can only use cross-skills from three specific classes related to them. Having these extra skills can help you obtain more FFXIV items and FFXIV Gil. Have fun playing!
