How to unlock the Swordfighter Job in Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin

If you've been to your Job Tree menu in Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin, you'll notice that a job titled Swordfighter is just sitting there waiting for you to use it, but the game doesn't explicitly tell you how—here's the quick and simple way to do it right from the beginning of the game.

In any of the in-game menus, head into your Battle Settings tab. In the top left corner of the screen, you'll see your current job and its level. Highlight this area and press the button prompt that appears just to the left—this will bring up a menu containing all of your available jobs (seen above). The Swordfighter job should be the first job on this list—simply highlight and confirm to equip it.
