does killing all the bosses again in ch.5 net anything worthy? they only give the 999 JPfrom just doing Holly White+Berras Lehr and Ominus Yeah, just more backstory and a chance to steal some ethers.. stealing from bosses in Chapter 6/7 with the "Rob Blind" ability is worth it though.
Also just updated friend list and will update data. Hopefully my summon will be able to help some people out.

Also, to Becker (please read after you beat the game or on last boss): Your planet got destroyed in my game. I'm sorry for your loss.

Early Spring; Teddy Nemesis was a pain... Beat them though using Hasten World/Meteor set up with one Time Mage doing Hastega/Meteor/Meteor since the use Overclocking which gives them 150% speed and out speeds max speed Ninjas.

Suggestions for the Swordmaster? Does he counter magic too?

ah; there goes my idea then. Was just gonna have you Kairai on the tank and (s)he'd eat all the counters.
Don't remember what I did specifically, but I don't remember having much trouble with the Swordmaster

Suggestions for the Swordmaster? Does he counter magic too? Kamiizumi wasn't terribly difficult when I fought him, though I do have a tendency to grind too much. I'd say the only thing you *really* have to worry about is if he gets a lucky pick with Know Thine Enemy, which deals 4x damage if the target he picked uses a physical attack that turn. Keep Protect on everyone and you should be fine. That, or you can just summon a bunch of friends' high-damage attacks. <_<

Suggestions for the Swordmaster? Does he counter magic too? I remember I kept wiping to him so I went and got ninja first. So my party was ranger, ninja, white mage, pirate. Then I one shotted it, defaulting whm to heal people who got countered.

Any tips for Victor/Victoria? I thought there was an item that prevents poison, but I forgot what it was/where to get it.

So what's everyone's preferred combination of jobs/abilities? Obviously if you're a completionist you're going to be swapping jobs a lot, but when all is said and done and you've mastered every job, where did you/do you plan to stick your people for the duration of the game? I'll spoiler mine just for people who haven't gotten some of these jobs yet.
Tiz is stuck as Arcanist/Black Mage for me. With Group-Cast All, Black Magic Amp, and Status Ailment Amp, there's not much he can't beat to death with Poison/Exterminate (bosses included, unless they're outright immune to poison. It also makes him pretty handy for grinding quickly and keeping chains going. Also Drainga and Aspirga keep him pretty self-sufficient against everything but undead.
Agnes is my Salve-Maker/Spiritmaster. With the innate Healing Lore skill and the Staff of Life, I haven't needed an actual White Mage for quite a while (even on boss fights). Combined with Spiritmaster's Maximize HP and Auto-Shell abilities, and an extra 10% HP from Monk's ability, I can pretty much guarantee she's going to be the last one standing, also giving her the option to use Salve-Maker's Resurrect skill if everyone else drops over.
Edea was kind of difficult to decide, but I finally ended up with her as Dark Knight/Vampire, set up with P.Atk 20%, Two-Handed, Gloom, and Self-Restore. It's kind of a goofy combination, but it's nice to have her be able to gain some of her own HP back during battle with Blood Thirst.
Ringabel's been my wildcard since the start. I haven't really settled on a final job combination for him yet, though I'm entertaining the thought of Ranger/Templar.

Any tips for Victor/Victoria? I thought there was an item that prevents poison, but I forgot what it was/where to get it. Use a Salve-Maker and keep doing Wide-Area Antidote as much as possible. It'll keep Exterminate from making short work of your group. I would also recommend taking Victoria down first, as she's obviously the bigger threat of the two.
Edit: I believe Victoria can also be poisoned, so if you've got a Black Mage or some other means of poisoning her, you can try to get it to land and let her kick her own *** too.
Double edit: Salve-Maker also has the Inoculate ability, which lets you confer status resistance to one character for 6 turns. The downside to this is that you have to waste 4 turns to get everyone, whereas Wide-Area/Antidote will only take up two. She didn't spam poison that much for me either, so it was pretty easy to keep up

There are some jobs I just can't bring myself to level :| like Time mage and Merchant..I'll do it eventually, but I really don't like them <.< don't like Summoner either, but I do that for the owls at least.

Tiz was my tank for the most part. Had him duel shield Knight for a while then made him a Ranger since tanks are useless when you unlock NIN.
Agnes was my WHM until I found out how broken Salve-Maker was then she stayed Salve for the whole rest of the game.
Edea and Ringabel were Rangers/Ninjitsu.
At chapter 8 I maxed out everyone's jobs and levels since Ranger was/is the best DD for the game if you know how to exploit weaknesses.

Suggestions for the Swordmaster? Does he counter magic too? dont think he counters magic on the 1st fight vs him, and dont think he counters specials either. Any tips for Victor/Victoria? I thought there was an item that prevents poison, but I forgot what it was/where to get it. Reflect on your party makes this battle very easy, can also wear resist poison or resist dark accessory.
focus Victoria then finish off Victor.
Merchant was rather interesting low levels, good for that money grind and burst damage (before other jobs became avail)

Merchant and Red Mage are the only two vocations that I have not bothered to level with any character yet. Merchant because it uses money for pretty much every skill, and Red Mage because it's as underwhelming as it is/was in XI.

Merchant is a very unique job just sorta gimmicky and not worth using unfortunately but selling items to mobs and healing them for money is great money making techniques.
Redmage has great abilities like the ones said earlier but it's not worth using either.
I think out of all the jobs I only really use like 4?
Time Mage is worth leveling solely for Free Lunch/Meteor spams.

New Nemesis Today~
Ba'al ii; Goldie
This is the goldfish version of Ba'al the Turtle Dove. Love the way it looks.
Has 2 major attacks Bouncing Ball which deals 9999 dmg to everyone including himself and Magic Festival which confuses everyone sometimes even himself. Also spawns little fishies that do nothing but raise their magic attack and regen and attack.
My Strat for Auto-Win
He always attacks after each round so had to change up the High Jump Strat a bit but works like a charm~
4x Ninja/Acrobatics
3x Ninja with Speed+20% Spear Lore and Confuse Immunity
1x Ninja with Speed+10% Spear Lore and Hasten World
Everyone Braves and Utsusemi>High Jump and hit auto.
Enjoy the music while watching this derpy fish hit himself with a bouncy ball.
Love this theme by the way.

I try to steer clear of any strat involving multiple NINs and blink-tanking stuff to death. I'm aware that it's a legitimate strategy, but it always feels so cheap to me. =/
