Because the game's cast is comprised of pre-established characters with distinct personalities and stat growth tables, vocations affect a character's capabilities through ''percentages'' rather than hard numbers. For example, if [[Ashlynn]]'s wisdom is 100 when she has no vocation, having her undertake the path of a mage will grant a 20% boost to the stat and raise it to 120.

For example, mastering the Warrior and the [[Martial Artist]] classes will allow the character to become a [[Gladiator]]. Skills and spells mastered in one profession are permanently learned by a character. | Unlike in ''III'', this game starts with nine available classes.
