I was wanting to know if there is a list out there that states which dungeons/fights contain first time soldiery tome bonus. If there isn't a list, if anyone could post which ones they know do the bonus I'd greatly appreciate that.
Thank you. :)

From my experience, every instance (excluding Guildhests) that I have participated in and raid gives a 100 Soldiery tome bonus if there is a new member participating.
I had this happen in Binding Coil, Trials, HM dungeons, and NM dungeons.
as far as I know all the HM dungeons, Ex dungeons, HM trails, and raids give some kind of tome reward. I think only the last few story mode dungeons give tomes ( Castrum and praetorium )
Any content with a level entry of 50 should have first time bonuses. Possibly Cape Westwind as well, but it's been forever since I've even seen that place. I believe the only exceptions to this are the Final Coil Of Bahamut and Second Coil (Savage) - and I could be wrong on those.
All <50 content gives an EXP bonus instead, to my knowledge.
I ran the 3 newest dungeons in the last few days and also stone vigil hard which was from the last patch I think. All for the first time. No bonus from the 3 newest ( snowcloak, sastasha hard and qarn hard) but a bonus for stone vigil. So basically every dungeon has a new bonus except the three new dungeons.
All non-recent content gives bonus according to how "hard" SE considers it to be (e.g. hydra 50 [or was it 60?] sol, titan hm 75 sol) recent content doesnt give any soldiery bonus which is atm: Shiva HM/EX, Qarn HM, Sasti HM, Snowcloak, FCOB
Advantage for this no bonus is that people dont rq at start (got my first shiva ex kill in a farm :P)
With 2.5 they will add the boni most likely to those contents as well
Wrong. Everyone gets the bonus, includung the new player.
What DanCadarn and Werhusky are stating is completely right, only outdated content gives a bonus, recent content (current patch cycle) doesn't. That's also the reason why alot of shiva ex farm groups in pf are stating stuff like "show proof/link item", because there is no soldiery message to identify leechers up front.
Its not true. If you are new, you only get the bonus if someone else is new too.
Wrong again, even if you are the only new person you still get a bonus, our fc just help a first timer go through Ramuh Hard for her story, they were the only new person in the run and they still got the bonus. Like Werhusky said recent content doesn't give any soldiery bonus which is atm: Shiva HM/EX, Qarn HM, Sasti HM, Snowcloak, FCOB also anything from the old content that does not give tomes doesn't get a bonus, example cape westwind, coil Tier 3, etc.
