Rebirth
Rebirth (Alternative: Transcendence)
Characters who reach Base Level 99 and Job Level 50 as a Primary Second Class get the option to go to Juno to be reborn, a process which is referred to as Transcendence. When they do, they will be sent to the town associated with their First Class, lose all of their Stats and Skills, and become level 1/1 High Novices, more powerful versions of regular Novices from which you can progress further than you could prior to rebirth. High Novices and High First Classes are identical to their pre-Transcendence counterparts except for the bonuses outlined below plus differently-coloured sprites:
- A permanent 25% increase to maximum HP and SP.
- 100 Stat Points to start off with (as opposed to a regular Novice's 48 Stat Points).
- +1 to all of their base Stats, granted incrementally as a High Novice over their Job Levels (following the table below).
- Access to equipment marked as "Transcendent only".
- Access to the upper levels of Thanatos Tower.
- Automatic access to Novice's Quest Skills First Aid and Play Dead without needing to have completed those quests first.
- As a High Novice, when you reach Job Level 10 you will be able to change into the High First Class matching your original First Class (so, for example, if you originally chose to be an Archer, you will be able to change into a High Archer).
- You will automatically learn your First Class's Quest Skills when changing to it.

After reaching Job Level 50 as a High First Class, you will need to return to the Book of Ymir in Juno (see below) to change into the Transcendent Second Class matching your original Second Class (so, for example, if you originally chose to become a Hunter, you will be able to become a Sniper), which has access to all of the Skills available to their matching Second Class plus a number of Transcendent-exclusive Skills. Additionally, its maximum Job Level is 70 (rather than 50) and, once you reach Base Level 99 and Job Level 70, you will be able to job change into its Third Class, with access to even more Skills as well as a raised Base Level cap of 200 and a Job Level cap of 70. Finally, after all of that, you can change into your Fourth Class, with level caps 250/50.
