Soft Selection lets you sculpt geometry in an organic way. It’s useful for sculpting a smooth object or making smoothly integrated slopes or contours to your model without having to transform each vertex manually.

Soft Selection works by maintaining a falloff from the selected components to the components around your selection to create smooth transitions.

For example, if you select a vertex at the center of a plane and translate it up into a spike without Soft Selection, the sides are very steep and the point is very sharp. When Soft Selection is on, the slope and tip are smoother.
