What Soldier does
A broad combat specialization combining blaster fire, melee tools, grenades, and rocket support.
The official role describes the job, not a mandatory weapon or fixed squad. Standard Specializations can support different Operators and can be adjusted at The Den as the campaign develops.
Field strengths
- Broad toolkit
- Easy squad fit
- Useful at common engagement ranges
Planning risks
- Generalist kit can lack a single dominant job
- Build choices should define a clear battlefield role
Squad fit
Use Soldier to fill the gap your named Operators leave open rather than asking it to perform every role at once.
Before committing Focus Points
- Name the job this Operator performs on the current squad.
- Check whether the weapon AP cost supports that job.
- Identify which teammate creates the opening this role needs.
- Preserve a recovery or retreat plan before moving forward.
