What is that? Do you just use four jobs the whole game?
This makes me want to take another FFV run, but I have too many games ahead of it in line.
Oh wait, didn't you mention something about this a while back? The Four Job Fiesta?
Yeah! The four job fiesta charity event popularized it.
Basically you just take one job from every crystal.
So using this one as an example, you'd play until the wind crystal, and then you'd unlock the thief, and play as an entire group of thieves.
Then you'd play until the water crystal, and unlock the red mage. At that point you're playing as a mix of thieves and red mages.
Then you play until the fire crystal and unlock the ranger. Now your group is any combination of thieves, red mages, and rangers.
Then you play to the earth crystal and unlock the chemist. At this point you have 4 jobs and 4 characters, so you basically have 1 character as each class at all times going forward. You can swap the jobs freely as long as you're always using all 4 jobs.
The game is really well designed to allow you to use any class combination. In fact, you can beat the game with any single class in the game. Kind of. There's a bit of an asterisk to that.
This Sulla fellow has soloed the game with every class except the white mage and berserker. He'd use a mod to have the class available from the start of the game, then he'd kill off all his characters except 1 and go through the whole game that way.
The white mage he was just too impatient for, so a guy called T-Hawk did it for him. The berserker is where things get questionable. You can technically beat the game solo with a berserker, but it relies on a series of RNG checks that surpass human patience. Robots can do it just fine, but as far as I know there's no human who's beaten the game with a solo berserker.
Simply playing some random games. Maybe at some point in the distant future I will upload something wortwhile... Maybe. If not, that's that. If you are interested in speedruns go to Speedrunslive(.)com and speeddemosarchive(.)com are your best options.

Don Yagamoth has also streamed himself doing every class except the berserker. The berserker he did all the way to the final boss but he couldn't beat the final boss.
Since ever class individually has the tools it needs to succeed, any combination of 4 classes tends to be pretty well set, though there are still some very difficult runs. My roughest run to date was White Mage, Time Mage, Bard, Monk, which just didn't have a lot of offensive potential through pretty large swaths of the campaign. Though it really came together in the end game.
