Easiest Job Mastering Method
Note: This only works on classes where you can scroll down and up on their skills list. Also, you must have enough JP to buy a skill. Doing this cheat on the Summoner class will allow you to buy all of the skills, but the game won't classify Summoner as a mastered class.
When you go into a classes skill list, select any skill you can buy. When the confirmation window comes up and asks you if you want to buy the skill, hold Square. Press Up or Down while holding Square and you'll see that the skill list scrolls down/up as well. If you are highlighting a skill that can't be purchased yet and the skill you selected isn't on screen, then try to buy the skill. One of two things will happen: Either all of the skills can be bought or they can't. If none of the skills can be bought, check the JP for that class. If you have 0000 JP, then the cheat worked. This also applies if they are all available to buy. Exit out of the skill section, back to the Abilities setup screen. Then go back to the skill list you used the cheat on. You will have 9999 JP, more than enough to buy all of the skills.
Solo Ramza Challenge Recommendations
This is an optional challenge. The challenge is to complete the game using only Ramza. It is very easy to do, but at times it can be difficult. There is a complete strategy guide to the SR Challenge on GameFAQs. Below is a list of the best method of completing this challenge.
1.Try to go through the game without going into random battles. If a random battle occurs, reset the game.
2.Before removing units, remove all equipment from them. This way, just in case equipment gets stolen, you'll have spare equipment.
3.Master the Calculator job as quickly as possible. It becomes very useful later on in the game.
4.Use the MP Switch/Move-MP Up combo in almost every battle you are in. MP Switch allows you to take MP damage instead of HP damage if you have any MP left, and Move-MP UP makes sure you have at least some MP left. MP Switch will activate very often no matter how little MP you have.
5.The first level really requires that you have 2 Chemists other than yourself in the battle for healing, so it really doesn't count as a SR Challenge battle. Also, in the same battle, if Delita doesn't kill the Squire that attacks him first on his second turn, reset the game as the Chemist will heal that Squire and all the opponents will swarm you.
6.If you die, reset the game unless there's a guest Unit close by who knows Phoenix Down of the Chemist job and has Item as the secondary skill. If they fail to heal you on the first chance, they won't attempt to revive you through the rest of the fight and will let you turn into a crystal.
7.The Yell/Accumulate combo will be required a lot in the beginning. By those two skills ASAP.
If you follow these procedures and use the strategy guide, then you can beat the game in around 13 hours with only the main character.
Shinobi job
The Shinobi job isn't a job that requires you to attain certain job levels. It is actually a Ninja/Samurai/Lancer/Geomancer combo. Here is how to set up a Unit as a Shinobi:
Ninja Job
Jump (Lancer)
Blade Grasp (Samurai)
Attack UP (Geomancer)
Ignore Height (Lancer)

Omega Ramza
This is the most powerful setup for Ramza. It only works in Chapter 2 or further. It requires mastery of Ninja, Squire, Time Mage, and Samurai. For the best results, get to highest job level for these four classes. After these requirements have been fullfilled, set up Ramza as listed below:
Job:Squire
Secondary Job Command:Math Skill
Reaction:Blade Grasp
Support:Two Swords
Movement:Teleport
Also attach a PA-increasing Accessory to him and raise his permenant Brave to 95-100. Once you accomplish this, Ramza will be able to do devastating damage, block almost every physical attack, attack a second time just in case he doesn't kill the enemy with the first hit, and move up to 13 spaces in one turn. If you use this setup after getting Orlandu and copying his Excalibur, you can make Ramza be protected from Holy damage and strengthen his Holy spell when using the Math Skill version, thus making him strong enough to take out 5 Black Chocobos on his own.
God Ramza
God Ramza is an incredibly powerful Ramza with or without weapons. To get him, first you must master Squire, Monk, Samurai, and Knight. You must also be at the highest job level with these classes. Set up Ramza like this:
Monk Class
Secondary Skill:Guts
Reaction:Blade Grasp
Support:Equip Armor
Movement:Move +1
Constantly use Scream in battle and equip Ramza with the Bracer as an Accessory and eventually you'll end up with a Ramza that does up to 999 damage on human Units and is almost untouchable.
Unlimited weapons
When you can access the second and third floor of the Deep Dungeon side quest you will notice that you can fight Ninjas. Make sure everyone is equipped with the catch ability and kill all the ninjas but the male one. He will eventually throw Excaliburs and even a Chaos blade at you to add to your inventory. Just kill him and do the battle over again to obtain more of these powerful weapons.
Ultima skill
When you go to limberry castle turn Ramza into a squire. Then when you fight with Elmdor and his two female assassins make Ramza get hit by a magic attack from the assassin and when it is cast it should be ultima. If Ramza lives through it you will learn the ability. Therefore your squire job will be mastered.

Weigraf and Velius: Two Birds with One Stone!
When you encounter Weigraf for the last time(just before he becomes Velius) you cankill him easily by following these instructions:
Make sure Ramza is a Squire with two sword ability or a Ninja with HP Restore and the support skill Guts equipped.
When you start the battle it's just you (Ramza) and Weigraff. Don't attack him, instead keep away from him and use Yell and Accumilate repeatedly when it's your turn.
Eventualy this will raise your speed and level high enough that you don't have to worry about his Lightning Stab or Earth Slash attack.
When you are getting 3 to 4 consecutive turns in a row (Check the AT list) wait until the beginning of the next cycle then attack. Your two-sword ability should kill Weigraff in one turn and Velius will be dispatched before anyone else even gets a turn.
This should make what was the hardest battle in the game quite simple. Good luck!
Ultimate Summon
After beating the battle in the holy land of Myurond, go to the seaport Wo-jirius. Following an short event you can go into Dieve dungeon, and from the tenth floor of the basement you will be able to learn the ultimate summon (equivalent to Knights of the Round from FFVII.)
