Soldier Notes and Tips
- Bow Adjustment allows you to equip any bow regardless of your finesse but, you still need to meet the FIN requirements for bow skills
- Safeguard changes a shield's toughness to S unless it's S or SS already. As a result, the talent is less useful as you progress farther into NG+s
- Winding Hew Master & Bloodbath: Longsword don't work well with the Cauterizing Sabre due to it removing bleeding from enemies
- As with all "Might" talents, Soldier's Might is only available if Soldier is chosen as your first class.

Pretty weak starting class actually, especially if you intend to do a level 1 run. Sentinel and Blood Knight are significantly better starting melee classes.
