Square Enix shared more details about Final Fantasy Explorers during a live stream session last week. Check out the information below, as reported by Siliconera.

– Ramuh’s theme is in the game
– 20 battle themes or so
– This is the majority of music tracks in Final Fantasy Extreme, according to composer Tsuyoshi Sekito
– Tsuyoshi said most were easy, but he struggled with the main theme
– 4 jobs in Final Fantasy Explorers as previously mentioned
– Tanks handle monsters and face bosses head-on
– Attackers are the main damage dealers
– Healers (like White Mage) are in charge of healing but can attack
– You can’t be a great healer unless you also participate in attacking or go with some additional support
– Buffers (Time Mage and Geomancer) support the party with spells like Haste
– Buffers can also attack, though this depends on one’s play style
– Customization will play a bigger role on how you get to play your jobs
– Trance system: going Trance is split into two “powers”
– One lets you use the power from Summoned Beasts, and the other that lets you borrow power from Final Fantasy characters
– Both transformations will give your character a different appearance as well as a boost in parameters
– More details on the Trance system/powers coming soon
– Ramuh is a Summoned Beast fight
– The Dragoon’s Jump will go to whatever you’re locked onto, but if you’re not, it’ll go a fixed distance ahead of you
– Geomancers can set up traps like landmines, and use area-of-effect buffing abilities that cover a wide range around them
– Cura ability costs more and isn’t as effective when used by non-healer jobs
– Ramuh can teleport
– Yellow crystals on the map can be broken to stop Ramuh from teleporting
– The crystals will respawn
– The Paladin uses Ifrit’s Summon power in Trance mode
