The troubadour is a helpful job that makes use of support skills in battle. Outside of battle, they learn the [[Holy Protection]] spell that is able to keep weaker monsters at bay. After mastering this class, the troubadour can become a [[Luminary]] provided they have also mastered the [[Dancer]] and [[Jester]] vocations.

The troubadour is quite frail and should be put in fourth position from the left. Its only use is to make the [[Luminary]] and then a [[Druid]]. It takes some time to become a Druid and so has to be started as soon the player clears [[Alltrades Abbey (Dragon Quest VII)|Alltrades Abbey]]. However, the rewards are great. In the 3DS version, troubadours are able to learn Soothing Song naturally, which is a decent way to restore HP for free in battle.
