Category:Limit Break Quests

When you start the game, your initial level cap is set at 50. Through a series of quests you can gradually increase your level cap to the maximum of 99. These quests are called Limit Breaks or Genkai.

Limit Breaks 1-4 (50 → 70)

The first 4 limit break quests are the same for all 22 jobs.

• Limit Break1/Genkai1: Level 55- In Defiant Challenge
• Limit Break2/Genkai2: Level 60- Atop the Highest Mountains
• Limit Break3/Genkai3: Level 65- Whence Blows the Wind
• Limit Break4/Genkai4: Level 70- Riding on the Clouds

Limit Break 5 (70 → 75)

The Limit Break to level 75 quest involves a one-on-one fight against a master of the job.

The 15 jobs from the original game and the Rise of the Zilart expansion (Warrior, Monk, White Mage, Black Mage, Red Mage, Thief, Paladin, Dark Knight, Beastmaster, Bard, Ranger, Samurai, Ninja, Dragoon, Summoner) feature a fight against Maat, who will change his abilities depending on the job.

All original Limit Break 5 quests require an appropriate Testimony for the job with which you wish to battle Maat.

• Testimonies are good for three attempts before needing to be reacquired.

Also, when you enter the battlefield your Support Job will be restricted meaning that you will lose all buffs (except for food) and TP. You will also not lose EXP should you be defeated in the battlefield as long as it is for Limit Break 5.

• Players in possession of the "Rhapsody in Umber" key item will be permitted to call Trusts in this fight.
