Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth Job guide: Jobs List & Best Job for each character
The Job system from Yakuza: Like A Dragon makes a return in Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth. Several classes return from its predecessor, but the majority of jobs in Infinite Wealth are brand-new. This page is here to help you to navigate the wide variety of options before you, listing all jobs in Infinite Wealth, every skill, and even some of our suggestions on the best jobs for each character that work to compliment each party member's strengths and stat layouts.
Infinite Wealth Jobs guide: How to Unlock & Change Job Classes, plus Inherit Skills
You'll unlock the Job system from Chapter 6, once the main story has Ichiban visit Alo-Happy Tours for the first time, right around the time you also unlock Photo Rally. The Aquanaut class is the first one that can be unlocked and additional jobs can be acquired through undertaking the various Alo-Happy Tour activities.
These activities require Ichiban to reach a certain level in one of his Personality traits, along with a fee. To unlock jobs all you have to do, once jobs become available, is head to one of the several Alo-Happy Tours locations across Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth's map and speak to the lady behind the desk. Each expedition has a monetary cost that our money grinding tips can help with, and also a personality stat requirement that can easily be bested by following our Infinite Wealth Personality Traits guide. Each expedition plays a short cutscene that unlocks a job. What exepeditions unlock which jobs, and when they become available, is listed below in our lists of the male jobs and female jobs.
Changing job class is undertaken in the same location - there's a clothes changing booth in the back of the store, and this lets you change job as well as costume.
In addition to the above, it's important that you keep in mind that the class system in Infinite Wealth has been vastly expanded over its predecessor. This is mostly thanks to the Skill Inheritance mechanic. As characters acquire new skills when leveling up jobs, they become available for skill inheritance towards other classes. This means that a character with the Samurai job equipped, for instance, can use skills from the Desperado or Action Star that character has learned.
Only one Skill Inheritance slot is initially available for characters, but they'll gradually unlock more as you raise their Bond Levels. Since Ichiban has no Bond Levels, all of his Skill Inheritance slots are immediately available, making him a fairly versatile character throughout the entire game.
Once you finish the game, your unlocked Jobs will carry over to New Game Plus, once you reach a certain story point. Also, Jobs can continue to be unlocked in the 'Premium Adventure' postgame, so don't fret if you're missing some, such as the DLC/pre-order bonus jobs.
Best Jobs for each Character in Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth
Since the job system in Infinite Wealth is a lot more fluid, our Best Job recommendations are much more fluid this time around and are, by no means, definitive - especially because of Skill Inheritance. We've identified a few powerful jobs for each character, but each job can be supplemented by skills from other classes. Refer to our skill lists below to start planning your best party compositions.
- Best Jobs for Ichiban Kasuga
- Best Jobs for Kazuma Kiryu
- Best Jobs for Eric Tomizawa
- Best Jobs for Chitose Fujinomiya
- Best Jobs for Koichi Adachi
- Best Jobs for Yu Nanba
- Best Jobs for Seonhee
- Best Jobs for Saeko Mukoda
- Best Jobs for Tianyou Zhao
- Best Jobs for Joongi Han
Best Jobs for Ichiban Kasuga
In these Like a Dragon RPGs, Ichiban sees himself as the protagonist - and as such it's perhaps unsurprising that he falls into what is a fairly typical, well-rounded hero role - just like the heroes in the RPGs he uses as a lens to see his adventures in the real world. Most of the best jobs for Ichiban in Infinite Wealth are therefore relatively built around balance - but beyond that, he's also at home dishing out damage and pain:
- Breaker: High agility class allowing Ichiban to usually act before anyone else does & his versatility allows him to setup ailments or statuses to enable other allies to shine.
- Hero: Well-balanced job that allows Ichiban to take up any role depending on whatever the party needs.
- Samurai: High offensive DPS class that can cause Bleed & possesses skills that do even more damage if an enemy is bleeding.
Best Jobs for Kazuma Kiryu
Kiryu of course is the other major protagonist of the Like a Dragon / Yakuza series - and he's quite unique, in that he has a class that allows him to turn the way the game is played back to the older games, the Dragon of Dojima. Kiryu is fairly similar to Ichiban otherwise, though generally speaking his Best Jobs are related to laying down the hurt on enemies, as that's where his skill set thrives. Try these jobs:
- Samurai: Due to Kiryu's stat growths favoring Attack, Samurai allows him to output damage at an outrageous pace.
- Dragon of Dojima: Versatile class exclusive to Kiryu with his Rush, Brawler, & Beast stances; make use of Beast's innate grapple property on its basic attack to break enemy guards.
- Action Star: Much like the Samurai, the Action Star can also output a lot of damage but the attack properties of its skills are the more common Blunt attribute; if another character gets him drunk before his turn comes, some of his skills will do more damage.
Best Jobs for Eric Tomizawa
In traditional RPG parlance, Eric Tomizawa is basically a mage. Once he joins the party he should be used to fill that spellcasting role, and as such his best jobs are all those that involve slinging this game's equivalent of magic.
- Desperado: Gun property attacks do a lot of damage in Infinite Wealth; plus, it has a Rank 1 grapple skill and many of its skills will incorporate the equipped weapon's element.
- Host: With Tomi's early stat growths favoring Magic, the Host will eventually be one of his strongest jobs to turn to; turn to the Pyrodancer early in the game before Host is available for him.
- Chef: Another job that'll be locked out for Tomizawa till later in the game - carries a lot of Fire element attacks to make use of his high Magic stat.
Best Jobs for Chitose Fujinomiya
The women have a different pool of jobs to choose from in Like a Dragon Infinite Wealth, and it's actually bit shorter and truncated compared to the guys. However, that doesn't mean that there aren't some great choices for the best jobs for Chitose. In particular, Chitose is great as a supporting character, casting buffs on allies:
- Housekeeper: The Housekeeper is a very powerful female-exclusive job that carries lots of useful Water element skills and skills with the Knockback property to reliably bounce around foes that can't be knocked back with basic attacks.
- Idol: If your party needs heals and lots of support, this is the class you want.
- Kunoichi: An agility-oriented class that carries some useful AoE skills, along with many chances to stack agility buffs on themself - there's even a skill that becomes more effective the more agility stacks the user has.
Best Jobs for Koichi Adachi
Adachi is an old friend who'll be familiar to people who played the last game, and his role in Infinite Wealth remains similar - a tanky brawler who is at home dishing out huge DPS or soaking up damage. We recommend these three job classes as the best for him:
- Samurai: Adachi ends up being an effective candidate for Samurai because other male characters usually have decent exclusive classses for them to spec in, while Adachi is malleable enough to explore other roles.
- Aquanaut: While Aquanaut isn't the most damaging class, its AoE abilities can hit groups of enemies reliably and has a decent enough heal that some party comps may not need a dedicated healer.
- Action Star: If someone else is a Samurai in your party, Action Star makes for a decent secondary DPS to consider.
Best Jobs for Yu Nanba
Another returning face from the previous game, Nanba also fills the same role he did back in the original - he's Ichiban's first mage buddy. As such, you'll be turning to similar classes as you did for Eric to spell sling - and you'll also want to inherit a skill or two from his excellent base class. Those damn pigeons!
- Host: Nanba, of course, will have a high Magic stat thanks to the Black Mage-esque Homeless Guy exclusive job and Host's skills are versatile enough to hit elemental weaknesses reliably.
- Homeless Guy: This job remains effective, but its especially valuable for Nanba in Infinite Wealth because you can carry its Pigeon AoE skill to other jobs.
- Chef: Depending on your party comp, Nanba makes for a decent Chef thanks to its Fire element skills.
Best Jobs for Seonhee
Drawing from that same pool of female-only jobs, Seonhee nevertheless has a slightly different calculus for her best jobs, mainly because of differences in how her base stats shake out. Specifically, of the girls Seonhee is the one who is arguably most comfortable as an out-and-out physical damage dealer, and our best job classes picks for her reflect that:
- Kunoichi: A natural fit for Seonhee thanks to Assassin favoring Agility growths early on; Kunoichi can make use of Seonhee's innately high Agility stat - she'll be getting turns often on Kunoichi, so make use of buffing Agility stacks or Substitiution Jutsu to accelerate others' turns faster.
- Night Queen: Effective Electric-oriented DPS class with a chance to inflct nasty debuffs consistently makes Seonhee a menace to enemies.
- Assassin: A fairly straightforward class that can inflict a variety of ailments.
Best Jobs for Saeko Mukoda
Saeko makes a return from the first Ichiban adventure - and once again falls into the slot she did in the last game. That means the best job class picks for her will cast her as a healer or support, buffing and keeping the rest of the party alive.
- Idol: Just like in Yakuza: Like A Dragon, Saeko on the Idol class will make sure that your party never goes down as long as you can keep her MP stable.
- Housekeeper: If you want to go on the offensive, Saeko can make use of the Housekeeper class to keep groups of enemies at bay.
- Geodancer: For more niche party comps that want to experiment with willpower & evasion potential, the Geodancer helps supplement buffs to these stats while providing decent heals and a revive.
Best Jobs for Tianyou Zhao
Zhao is a bit of a jack-of-all trades - in classic RPG terminology, we might think of his natural 'class role' as being something akin to a red mage - proficient with magic, but also able to dish out physical damage in a pinch. We suggest these as the best jobs for Zhao:
- Chef: Zhao not only makes great food in the kitchen, but he can also roast enemies quite well; makes for a decent enabler for Samurai if Zhao acts before the Samurai.
- Gangster: Gangster is one of the few melee jobs that can cover both the Blunt & Slash properties simultaneously with its toolkit.
- Desperado: Both Desperado & Gangster can complement each other via skill inheritance to cover all non-elemental properties, making Zhao a reliable party member to strike weaknesses.
Best Jobs for Joongi Han
Back in the last game, Joongi was a late game showstopper, a character that most late-game parties would inevitably use. He's not quite as powerful here, but he's right at home in a range of high-DPS classes, shattering enemy defenses:
- Samurai: If other male party members are filling other roles, slot Joongi into one of the best jobs in the game.
- Desperado: To turn Joongi into the ultimate Gun machine, skill inheirt some Hitman skills into Desperado and see the bullets fly every single turn.
- Hitman: While Hitman isn't as dominant as it once was in Yakuza: Like A Dragon, it remains a decent choice for Joongi due to its ability to inflict ailments that cancel an enemy's turn.
Male Job Classes in Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth
There are a large variety of job selections that the men can choose from in Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth. Many of them provide powerful offensive tools that can be mixed and matched to cover any situation.
Aquanaut
The Aquanaut is the very first class you'll unlock as you're introduced to the job system. It's a fairly versatile class with a nice mix of Water element attacks & HP recovery skills. Though it doesn't do the most damage, some of its skills can inflict Stun or Paralysis to cancel an enemy's turn. Jellyfish Juice is a particularly effective skill if enemies are gathered together.

Become a martial artist with the Action Star. Many of its skills carry a weapon's element, so crafting an elemental attribute for a nunchaku is key to enabling the damage potential of this class. Make use of its various Knockback skills to ping pong heavier foes that can't be normally knocked back with basic attacks.

Female Job Classes in Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth
With several new female party members in Infinite Wealth, the job selection for them has expanded as well. Several of them add useful utility to balance out the party's stability, while others can dominate the battlefield to dispose of many enemies at once.
Kunoichi
The Kunoichi is a very versatile class that has a varied skill list filled with different offensive attributes to tackle almost any situation. They can stack Agility buffs which can increase the effectiveness of skills like Illusory Slash. Due to their innately high Agility stat, their turns come by pretty often and Substitution Jutsu allows them to give up their turn for another ally to immediately act.

Starter & Exclusive Job Classes in Like A Dragon: Infinite Wealth
The following jobs are exclusive to their respective character. Outside of the Sujimancer, their skills can be skill inherited into other classes. Conversely, other jobs' skills can be skill inherited into them - even the Sujimancer.
Freelancer - Ichiban Kasuga's starting job
Like in Yakuza: Like A Dragon, Ichiban starts with the Freelancer class that can't equip any weapons and its skill set is relatively basic. The usefulness of this job lies in Rock Swing, a very early skill with the grapple property that'll allow Ichiban to guard break enemies. Since the Hero class has no grapple skills, slotting Rock Swing into his Hero class is useful just for access to the grapple property alone.
- Weapon: Bare Hands

Single Enemy | Blunt | Light DMG | Knockback | Stun Chance (MP 8) - Rank 2 - Rock Swing
Single Enemy | Blunt | Medium DMG | Grapple (MP 13) - Rank 6 - Hyper Swagger

Single Enemy | Blunt | Instant KO Chance (MP 35) - Rank 30 - Essence of Roadside Weapon
Single Enemy | Blunt (MP 45)
- Rank 1 - Tenacious Fist
Hero - Ichiban Kasuga's exclusive job
Once again, the Hero job in Infinite Wealth is a balanced all-rounder class. Ichiban's Personality stats will improve this class's toolkit as players gradually raise them. Although the AoE zones may seem underwhelming at first, they can be expanded as Ichiban's Magic stat goes up.

Sujimancer - Ichiban Kasuga's exclusive job
This is the most unique class in Infinite Wealth because its effectiveness correlates with how much you've invested into the Sujimon League minigame. Although Ichiban can't equip a weapon, the Gear menu will have a new option to slot five different element Sujimon for the Sujimancer to summon. The better they are, the better the Sujimancer's skills will be. It is a dedicated Black Mage-esque job that can heal HP as well.
The Sujimancer's skills cannot be skill inherited into any other job class.
- How to unlock: Complete Sub Story 38, The CEO of Suji which requires unlocking the Sujimon League system. Reach Sujimon Rank 10, then defeat Jack; after you defeat Jack, the Sujimancer job will unlock.

Dragon of Dojima - Kazuma Kiryu's default job
Kiryu's iconic title is now properly a turn-based RPG job and allows Kiryu to freely switch between Rush, Brawler, and Beast stances before attacking. These three stances from Yakuza 0 & Yakuza Kiwami affect his movement range in correlation to their power level. Rush can initiate a follow-up secondary attack on a downed enemy, Brawler can activate environmental Heat Actions, and Beast inherently has a grapple property to its basic attacks. Essence of Bowling will power up Kiryu even more if you KO enemies with it.

Chitose's Heiress job comes with a useful heal for early in the game, though its real value comes in the form of potentially debuffing enemies with its skills. A generally useful job for weakening enemies that are applying too much pressure on your party early on.

The reliable Black Mage-esque class returns as Nanba can cast damaging AoE "spells". The Pigeon Raid and Pigeon Storm skills carry the weapon's attributes, so their element is determined by it.

Barmaid - Saeko Mukoda's default job
Saeko's Barmaid class has a fairly straightforward skill set that leans on knocking back foes - useful for enemies that normally can't be knocked down with a basic attack.
