Jolly Rager is learned upon reaching rank 3 of the Pirate vocation in both versions of ''VII'', and it deals 50~70 damage to an enemy group for no MP. Though superior to Tidal Wave because of its damage range and ability to be used anywhere, it is inferior to [[Thin Air]].  
Jolly Rager is learned upon reaching rank 3 of the Pirate vocation in both versions of ''VII'', and it deals 50~70 damage to an enemy group for no MP. Though superior to Tidal Wave because of its damage range and ability to be used anywhere, it is inferior to [[Thin Air]]. Similar to Maelstrom, the only way to reduce the skill's damage is to wear either the [[Bottlenose buckler]] or [[Saint's Equipment|Aeras shield]].
