Genius (ジーニアス) is a job class that originally hailed from New World.

Background[]

The Genius job class is a natural born talent. Those who have Genius attached to their job class differ in various ways. For example, the number of magic spells learned increases slightly. However, there is never a time when they become incredibly strong.[1]

Known Genius Holders[]

Abilities and Powers[]

While various job classes can possess Genius modifiers and reflects a holder's pure natural talent, the Genius job class itself is a special occupation. In that a holder can replace the level of any basic job or general job. Genius allows only one profession to be replaced at a time (currently).[5] According to the author Maruyama, the Genius can be replaced by any General job class. However, if you have an advanced job class you cannot change it.[6]

Trivia[]

  • It is a rare occupation, and only a few have it.
