Hyrule Compendium Entry

322  (327Master Mode) Soldier's Bow	Description A bow designed for armed conflict. Inflicts more damage than a civilian bow, but it will still burn if it touches fire.
	Common Locations Hyrule Field Faron Grasslands
	Properties Bow 14

Soldier's Bows are Bows designed for armed conflict, and they will therefore deal more damage than their civilian counterparts. They are used by Enemies across Hyrule, especially in Hyrule Field and the Faron Grasslands.

The following amiibo have a chance to spawn a Treasure Chest containing a Soldier's Bow when they are scanned with the amiibo Rune:

• Super Smash Bros. Series Princess Zelda amiibo
• Breath of the Wild Series Link (Archer) amiibo
• Breath of the Wild Series Revali amiibo

Despite their upgrades, Soldier's Bows will burn if they are exposed to Fire or a Scorching Climate, and they cannot be picked up using the Magnesis Rune. They will float if they are dropped in Water, and they will not attract Lightning during Thunderstorms or conduct Electricity.

Soldier's Bows belong to the Soldier's Gear equipment archetype, which is associated with the Hylian Knights from before the Great Calamity.
