Gladiator ready!
2 April 2011 at 9:02pm
I've just finished the book with a gladiator. What an ending! You may wonder why I picked the gladiator but I decided that I like to play hard mode in games and if gladiator is the least favourite career I decided to give it a go. It was not easy but here are my end game stats
Name: Blitz
Path: Warrior
Career: gladiator
Stats: 14speed, 19brawn, 9armour
Head: Ghoul’s collar 2speed 3armour piercing
Cloak: nemesis shroud 2speed 3brawn dark pact
Gloves: mortuary gauntlets 1speed 3armour acid
Chest: skullplate 2speed 3armour dominate
Feet: rumblethumpers 1speed 3 brawn knockdown
Main hand weapon: Blood crescent 3speed 5brawn cleave
Left hand weapon: Fall of angels 1speed 5brawn windblast
Talisman: Blind dust 1speed decieve
Necklace: Eye of shadow 1speed haste
Ring: Splintered band 2brawn retaliation
Ring: Lupine lapis 1brawn bleed
There seems to be lack of good gloves for warrior and boots also. I went for a combinaton of abilities that gave me a good selection of win abilities like knockdown and windblast, to get my blood lust. Other abilities are so so. Cleave is good to damage and then bleed lots of enemies. I know this hero could be much better but this is my very first play of the book. It was a lot of fun but it was very tough at times. I died a lot in act 3. I look forward to playing something easier but very happy I did it
