A mysterious otherworldly traveler capable of formidable Limit techniques when his rage reaches a breaking point.
Description
Soldier is a novelty job in Final Fantasy Tactics, as it is Cloud's default job. The job is named after SOLDIER, the elite unit of powerful warriors under the command of the Shinra Electric Power Company, a major antagonist in Final Fantasy VII, and the division which Cloud claimed affiliation with.
Its abilities involve dealing heavy damage to a single foe, based on Cloud's Limit Breaks from Final Fantasy VII, except Cherry Blossom. It costs 6,730 JP to master.
