Warrior (戦士 [senshi] or 'warrior' in Japanese, sometimes also known as ウォリアー [warrior]) is one of the most basic jobs in Final Fantasies. It has been present ever since Final Fantasy I, and has made quite a few appearances over the years. Warriors generally wear (at least partially) red armor, which makes them rather recognizable. In FF1 their advanced version was Knight, and while other similar jobs are too many to list all of here, some are jobs such as Fencer or Fighter, or even Commando or Gladiator.
Warriors are your basic damage dealers. They are not quite as resilient as Knights, but they often have a variety of weapons they can use which somewhat makes up for it. Examples of Warriors could be Luneth from FF3 (as per official art, he's not required to be on the job), Cloud Strife from FF7, Squall Leonhart from FF8, Volker from FF11, Basch fon Ronsenburg from FF12 and Curious Gorge from FF14.
Final Fantasy I
Final Fantasy III
Final Fantasy X-2
Final Fantasy XI
Warrior is one of the basic jobs in FF11. Please see here for an in-depth look at the job.
Final Fantasy XIV
Warrior is one of the jobs in FF14. Please see here for an in-depth look at the job.
A New Empire
Note that this appearance of Warriors is not the standard Final Fantasy job, but a generic melee fighter troop unit. There are six levels of Warrior troops, each stronger than the last but with some variations in speed.
Stats
Warrior type units are your basic attackers. They are strong against Cavalry and Siege Engine types, and weak to Mages and Traps. In addition, Fire-type Traps are especially strong against them.

Warriors have appeared quite a few times in the FF-TCG series, most under the Fire element but also Earth and Lightning. Note that the English job 'Warrior' consists of two different Japanese jobs, and are thus treated as two different cards in the TCG. Please note the name of the cards below.
