There are many classes in Tactics Ogre: Reborn so you'll have plenty of options if you want to experiment with different playstyles. You'll need Classmarks to change to another class and you'll get many of these as you play the game. Some you'll need to buy though, so it makes sense to know how and where you get each one.

In some cases, classes are also limited to race, so I'll go through that below too. It's also worth bearing in mind that there are Classmarks for some monsters, too, but for this guide, I'll concentrate on the generic ones. Here are the Tactics Ogre: Reborn classes and how to unlock them.

Tactics Ogre: Reborn classes: How to get Classmarks 

Classmarks items are consumables which let you change class but, as these disappear once used, it's worthwhile knowing where you can get more. Below you'll find a list of the generic classes available in Tactics Ogre: Reborn and how to get the Classmarks associated with them.
