While each character in Octopath Traveler starts with their own unique job, there are also secondary jobs that players can assign a character based on what is best suited for the character. However, these secondary jobs are locked and players need Octopath Traveler Shrines locations to access these secondary jobs.
Octopath Traveler Shrines Locations
Before we go ahead, it is important to remember that just like your Primary Job; a single person can only hold a single Secondary Job. A character who gets a second Job can use the skills and the abilities that are granted to it through both primary and secondary jobs. Moreover, you can always switch around your Secondary Jobs between characters whenever you are at the tavern.
Let us go ahead and see where all of the shrines in Octopath Traveler are located. Not only that but there are also 4 secret shrines that you can find that we will tell you about. Here are all 12 of the shrines that you can find.
