Average amount of time till HoL glads

Hey guys! I was just wondering how long it took everyone to be able to retire their first glad and get a HoL slave. Looking forward to the responses.

I think it's about 6+ months. If you are playing free.

IF you pay for throphies and buy them gyms and stuff you will advance MUCH quicker. So it's up to you.
Pay for ultra fast retire, or go free and wait few months. :D
Sometimes it takes me over 1 month just to get one skill from 9 to 10.

Cheers.

Hi.

Generally, to retire a gladiator we need (at least) to do 1000 of fights.
We have 4 arena tokens per day. We have also some fights which will be started by other managers.
It looks like we need about 3 tokens for 4 fights at low brackets. Then, while we raise rating , it will consume about 2 tokens for 3 fights. And finally it's almost 1 token for 2 fights at Primus.
So, You see:
-- We need to collect ~600 tokens for 1000 fights. And 600/4=150 days. The Blood Academys membership will decrease this time up to ~100 days or even less;
-- Result also depends from our ability to raise rating. So, Skull's Gyms membership will decrease this time too.

But it's true only if we know what we do. I.e. if we have some knowledges about strategies/skills.
And Your question about "first glad", as i see.
And result time in this case will depend from the choice of specialty/build. Because some builds are more difficult than others in the sense of strategies/skills usage.
In my opinion, most easy builds to catch retirement (in order of increasing complexity) are:
-- Speed Theatric;
-- Speed Rage;
-- Power Rage.

Also, it seems the easiest specialty to catch retirement at all is Slayer now. // Although we can't set this specialty for our first one, yes.

Awesome! Thanks for the help!
