The Pulse Soldier will have a maximum HP of around 5,000 if given Vitality materials, which is poor compared to other monster Sentinels. However it halves damage incurred by physical and magical attacks and gains more passive resistance against physical attacks during its development, putting it more on a par with other Sentinels with higher HP.
