Huh.... and the stone is so perfectly shaped. Maybe it whittles down over time like others or they're just very randomly shaped from wherever they come from?

Also, in most cases it seems like souls tones are just to give you the strength or knowledge to perform abilities. In MCH's case I guess they give it to you to pave the way for the future. In the end though, how many jobs truly "need" a souls tone to actually perform their part?

The MCH is new with Heavensward. They did not exist before that in the story. So the stones are very new. I would assume it's in part to the crafting/manufacturing of them that they're in part smoothly shaped much like a cut stone. However there's not much information on that that I am aware of. I don't recall it in my lore book but if you give me a few minutes I can see if there's anything in about the stones themselves.

Soulstones usually hold the whispers of their past owners; so yes they tend to hold the knowledge "teach" their users; but it requires a lot of training and study of the individual. As for how many jobs require it; I would tend to think to be a "capital" letter job ie. DRG vs drg you would require the stone to learn the knowledge. I know the WAR and NIN story do directly "whisper" knowledge to you as it says when you learn a new ability through the storyline.

There's a diff between DRG and drg? Or do you mean a Dragoon vs the dragoon knights?

"Blank" Soul/Job stones?
