Under rating threshold (show) It would be nice to know what putting additional points into different skills does ... like the Combo x2 ... seems to not benefit from extra points. It is very confusing.

Under rating threshold (show) If you choose to kill them for extra loot, it's really disappointing to see no loot show up at all. If you go for the extra loot then you should at least get 1 item.

Under rating threshold (show) Played for a while longer I thought I'd leave another comment but I'll keep it brief. 1) AI really needs sorting out 2) Have different AI models (e.g attack strongest, defensive, disable enemy, support allies etc.) 3) I know that you're trying to make money from in-game purchases but the gold earning / prices are very unbalanced 4) Ditto ability points 5) Crafting shouldn't be so random. Let us choose to have a weapon, armour or maybe even ability points! 6) Rings which give special abilities might be a nice idea to have as crafted items 7) Please speed up transition animations and include a replay button on the victory screen so that we can grind 8) Allow us to turn off blood and other effects to reduce lag 9) Provide progress stats of achievements, including in-fight stats so we can see what we need to do 10) Game gets tedious so needs something else. Side-missions maybe? Good game, just feels like it's lacking in some areas. Keep up the good work!

Under rating threshold (show) 1) this is one of the best games I've played on Kongregate. 2) I'm having trouble getting the game to recognize completion of the "win without losing a gladiator" goal 3) the pay for completing goals doesn't scale up with the difficulty of the goal...I mean, when you're getting a few hundred gold per fight, it's worthwhile to finish them....at higher levels, you're getting 1200 per fight, and yet only getting 600 for 20 decapitations....it doesn't seem worthwhile 4) I think we need to level up faster or something. I mean, the lowest tier at my current coliseum is level 33, the champions are 37, but I only leveled 1 time (from 30 to 31) in the process of conquering it. 4) Why do the enemies have so much MP? They have more than 2 times what I had at an equivalent level.

Under rating threshold (show) i think the slave market is bugged. in the store the slave stats is shown more than plain 10, but when u buy it, their stat is 10 the only exceptions are str and char. that slave trader is sure a liar lol

Developer response from BerzerkStudio

When you buy the slave, the stats and skills resets to 0, so you can manually redistribute all his stats. The slave market guy distribute stats randomly but once you get it, you get a free redistribute so you can upgrade the slave like you want.

Under rating threshold (show) Question: what is the requirement to complete the "win without losing a gladiator" goal? I tried everything (I won without death on my side; I also won without death on both sides), but I still cannot get it. Also, some basic suggestions for the developer: 1) add progress to all goals; 2) add additional info about feats effects; 3) LOWER EFFECTIVENESS OF BLOCKING!; 4) change the slave market (too expensive/rewarding).

Under rating threshold (show) resetting character progress, (wiping your save) does not reset goals. This means ANY new character started will NOT get the bonuses from goals completed on a previous character. Nor will they get the benefits from liking BerzerkStudios, or be able to like them again. These bonuses should either carry over between people, or reset along with everything else.

Under rating threshold (show) Make speed a useful stat other then just who goes first. Like add dodge as well as if you have enough speed you can go more often. Right now speed just determines the order in which the Gladiators go. Made me sad once i realized this.

Under rating threshold (show) Its a good game, reminds me alot of Swords and Sandals, which is what I guess you were going for, but it does need alot of balencing. Costs of items need to be addjusted as some are just way too expensive for what you get... loot drops need to be upped and made appropriate to your level. I've gotten junk thats worse then my already equipped stuff or nothing more times then I can count. The skills could do with addjusting as many of them are frankly useless. Battles take too long in alot of cases with having to chip through armor or kill multiple people which make it get boring and repetative too quickly. At the moment the games an average 3/5. Actually sit down and play it to balence the issues and make it fun to play and it'll be worth more. Even the alike swords and sandals currently has more long term play value then this right now, and thats been out for years. And one more thing... Pay for upgrades? Pay to play flash games are auto-fail for most people.

Under rating threshold (show) I think there should be more ways of getting metal other than paying and completing goals, For instance, maybe have it so weapons can be crafted down into metal? Maybe as a luck drop or as a prize for completing a place. And also, it should be buyable

Under rating threshold (show) Enemy block rate is absolutely overpowered! A battle with two, or three enemies who have shield, takes almost 20/25 minutes. And of course there is no Speed Up button, what I and all the others were asking many-many times... Sometimes I wonder if you (the developer) read these comments. Please do something with these mistakes, because they are totally ruin this game!

Under rating threshold (show) 1: Speed up button; 2: New stock button in the shops; 3: Escape button - when it's clear, that you will loose; 4: More items in shop; 5: Last but not least, a more obvious description for skills, because if I put 1 point on the DEX bonus skill, it says that it boost 4%, but still I put every points on that, it remains 4% always.

Under rating threshold (show) You XP way too slow but the combats are too easy at the beginning. At the start of Athena, I'm lvl33 but the opponents are lvl47. I'm starting to get destroyed real fast. Now I have to go back to the easy fights and grind for ages. Also, why can't we have access to the opponents' armor? They have 500 on each limb, 700 on helm, and best I can buy is 250 in limb and 450 on helm/torso. At this point, they just instagib my gladiators by doing a combo x4 before I even start. Please review the balance.

Under rating threshold (show) Three turns net duration is, as politely as I can say it, absolutely absurd. Especially if a player or enemy has enough MP to spam it. Shield bash is also overpowered. It provides better than weapon damage + a multi turn block buff EVEN if it misses. It should do one of damage OR block buff, not both, and absolutely nothing if it misses.
