The Defender (守護騎士, Shugo Kishi?, lit. Guardian Knight), abbreviated as DEF, is a recurring job that appears in several Ivalice games in the series.
Like their name implies, they are traditionally hired as escorts due to their great endurance in engagements. Defenders have potent close range attacks like Mow Down and Tremor and self-healing and damage prevention abilities such as Aura and Bulwark.

Defender (DEF) is a job for bangaa. Defenders are the wielders of broadswords and knightswords and are tanks when it comes to Weapon Defense. While they are somewhat similar to Paladins, Defenders prefer to help themselves rather than others.
Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift[]
Defender is a job exclusive to bangaa. They focus on protecting themselves and attack when surrounded. They can sacrifice their HP to deal damage, but their Aura ability can make them a permanent field unit
