"Every action you take in combat that accomplishes something nets your character XP (experience points) and JP (job points). The first raises your regular level and the second raises your Job level and are spent to unlock abilities. You get more XP for performing actions on characters that are a higher level, and more JP the higher your overall Job level is, with bonuses for having the Double JP abilities equipped ( more on that here)."
"There are roughly three tiers of grinding in Final Fantasy Tactics. The first is going to a place like the Mandalia Plains, killing everything but the enemy Chocobo, and then cornering it so that it keeps healing itself as your characters keep attacking it. The second is unlocking Focus from the Squire Job on every character, keeping one enemy alive in a battle, and then just spending the rest of the time having everyone keep using this ability over and over again."
Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles enables transforming novice Squires into ultra-efficient hybrid specialist squads through targeted XP and JP farming. Combat actions that accomplish something award XP to raise character level and JP to raise Job level and unlock abilities, with bonuses for higher-level targets and Double JP. Common grinding approaches include exploiting a self-healing Chocobo in Mandalia Plains, repeatedly using the Squire’s Focus ability, or looping dances and Bard songs to neutralize enemies without killing them. The Berserker Frog method combines Black Mage’s Toad with Mystic spells Fervor (Berserk) and Induration (Petrify) for a highly reliable JP/XP exploit.
