Sorry for the semi-necropost... thought I'd add my 2 cents:
/WAR
Voke-tank (pairs well with THF main for duoing Charybdis, so THF can utilize SA+TA, for example)
Great zerk DPS, especially with Excalibur.
(With joyeuse only, situationally outshone by /drg, at least for DPS consistency)
/MNK
Boost for free enmity while PL'n
/WHM
Status cures, reraise, DS+vert, Teles
/BLM
Drain, Aspir, Conserve MP... Sleepga! (effective for solo ZM4 for example, MVP status oftentimes for dynamis) ES... WARP!
/THF
Farming, situational SATA... flee is nice for footwork-quests/missions
/PLD
Huge list.... Auto refresh, defense bonus, shield bash, sentinel (soooooo nice for convert), fast-casted flashes for tank-hate, undead killer (great for 5-1 for example), shield mastery for -spell interruption (and negligible TP). Such a nice all-terrain subjob! Comparable to /BLU, but /PLD is usually a lot more flexible (especially vs Dispel-heavy mobs like Cemetery Cherry)
/DRK
Chainspell stun, access to drain/aspir, attack bonus (great for farming Dancing Weapon type mobs for garliage coffer, etc)
Souleater/LR are good for pulling hate while PL'n too.
/BST
Amazing for solo EXP, farming
/BRD
AoE buffs (namely ballad)
/RNG
Sidewinder is arguably RDM's hardest-hitting 75 WS (unfortunately no great bows for RDM on nasomi). Amazing with Kraken Club. Widescan is nice.
/SAM
Farming Castle Zvahl coffer keys, good DPS vs fodder (lb2 etc) novelty otherwise
/NIN
Utsusemi!! Dual wielding (Mandau + Excal, anyone?). Great for farming with KC offhand (even outshines /dnc for undead, on applicable servers). Tanking HNM with hate spells
/DRG
Very fun fast-paced DD subjob! Usually outshone by /WAR (especially with relic) but is more-consistent DPS.
/SMN
Autorefesh, Aerial Armor
/BLU
Tanking hits from many monsters at once with Cocoon. Killer effects... Wild Oats is a great lowbie exp spell (when other de/buffs are covered) Situationally great for overwriting defense-down debuff
/COR
Great for EXP
/PUP
Broken last I checked on Nasomi. Amazing for OWNM, Royal Jelly, Elemental farming.
And though not on this server:
/DNC
Farming, aggressive melee solos, especially with KC. Multiple great weapon options for exping on pierce-weak monsters like colibri.
/SCH
Extremely aggressive nukability
Phalanxga, Stoneskinga (Fafhog support, etc)

Sorry for.the manic/bad grammar on this post... submitted via phone
Omg thaaank you, having a comprehensive list like this was EXACTLY what I was looking for!!
