General Description: Along with the Psychic Dressphere, the Festivalist is one of two Dresspheres initially only known to those who played FFX-2: International + Last Mission, and one of only three (alongside Trainer and Mascot) to change their abilities depending on their user. The Festivalist is the earliest available of the those Dresspheres that you probably never used until you got FFX-2 HD, and is as such one of the less useful jobs. Much of its repertoire is simply narrowly-focused or luck-based, and it’s also one of the flimsier Dresspheres. Perhaps you could use it to get familiar with it, but there’s not much use otherwise.
