This is a very big waste of time. Find a new job developers cause if this is what you do with your talent you are better off working for a fast food chain.
If that doesn't make you wonder why Gladiators are so OP, then delving into the Assassin class definitely should. I decided that the easiest way to increase my crit chance was to simply become an off-spec Assassin. Getting into this tree I saw the Blade Flurry ability. This ability allows for all melee attacks to hit all creatures around you, much like whirlwind, but for a full 15 seconds. This is insane, as it simply makes you invincible for a full 15 seconds. Also, the Soul Link ability is a nice buffer for your Health Regen. With these three life-gaining abilities, you shouldn't have any trouble staying alive. I tested this spec by fighting all of the mobs that come out of the death gate AND the final boss all at once and I had no problem with them, I even walked around a bit before finishing off that silly excuse for a final boss.
Anyway, hope this helped.

So I figured out a few tricks for the Gladiator class, some of which involve delving into the Assassin tree as well. I got Life Steal and realized that 3% may seem meager, but when mixed in with either high critical ratings or say an "AoE" then this ability might be a little OP. With a Crit Rating of over 50% you can assume that you will crit with Whirlwind. So, you crit for over 400 on each mob around you, say 10, giving you not only some ridiculous damage to all these guys, but an addition 120 health on top of your base health gain AND what ever Life Steal you've been getting with all of your other abilities.
Beat game easily because I, being an MMO player, caught myself grinding for levels in the final area before I had even gotten to the third village or "quest hub". Overall a good game for casual gamers and a refreshing switch from the other RPG's on Kong. I myself have not played Hands of War, but might try it out from all of the comments I have seen relating this game to that one. Thank you for a solid game.
