While only the Hero, Mage, Priest, and Sage vocations can innately learn to use magic, several other professions have utilities that can aid the party as well:

• Gadabouts will learn to randomly perform a wide variety of antics as they level up, with several mimicking spells directly. Furthermore, they learn the Whistle skill at level 13 in all remakes and ports of the title, instantly triggering a battle when on the overworld.

• Merchants are able to apprise items, revealing the details of a given object. In all remade versions of the title the traders are also able to learn the Dig skill at level 12. This ability's effect is it has a chance at acquiring random loot (partially determined by the mobs encountered in the region) or gold by digging up to 5 tiles in a map. There is a 1/28th chance for the excavated gold to be half of what the party is currently carrying, meaning exceptionally patient players can experience exponential gains during any point in the adventure. A merchant will also learn Service Call at level 17: the skill's effect is it lets the player call for a service such as a church, inn, or the last shop Item/weapon/armour shop most recently visited, being a Hail Mary for when the Evac spell is unavailable or the party does nto have any Chimaera wings.

Creative players can also take advantage of the vocation-swapping system of Alltrades Abbey, in that a character's spells will be remembered when changing lifestyles. This can lead to Martial Artists using Kaswoosh to deal with crowd control, Thieves keeping the party going with Multiheal, and so forth. The only limits to this system are that the Hero cannot change vocations and a character will never gain more MP when switching to a vocation that does not naturally accrue any.
