You can use a soldier’s set for anything, and you can use it on any non-burst build (so either defensive stealth builds or sword builds). Soldier’s is a much more stat spread to use (particularly for PvE and large-scale battles in WvW), but it’s not going to be as active and razor-edged as Zerker.
Yishis used a combination of Zerker / Soldier’s for WvW, no? Is this still viable?

Not really after ferocity
Soldier gear is okayish for wvw but you don’t really need it. Probably best to get a mix of soldiers (or valk)/zerk and see how much defence/offence works best for you. Pre ferocity change, people were using soldiers/zerk mix to max stat allocation. This is not needed now as ferocity is a flat number like any other stat.
There is no reason to use soldiers for pve, since you can learn dungeon mechanics and avoid dmg by dodging. If you decide to go soldiers, you will limit yourself to only casual dungeon runs as exp/speed runs require zerk gear. Thieves are 2nd in dmg after eles and with stealth, that’s why we are wanted in dungeon groups.
