New Updates - Stable Memberships & More!

[Dainoji]

Love the update guys!

[CaineDeSoulis]

Slowed it down for those who wanted it slow and mellow. cranked it to 11 for those who gotta go fast. 2handed rage can now compete again. 120$ price tag on a level 50 glad with good skills and level 50 gear. Fun game. Great Update or Greatest update?!?.

Hmm, curious, did Polearms get the lovin' that 2H's did?

The slower pace is fine, it's better than after the end-of-January update but what concerns me is that the stables who pay for membership particularly for the Skull's Gym will have the edge over the ones which do not. The amount of XP earned through the Tavern is very small overall so it's quite likely to have 2 similarly leveled gladiators with different levels of training (obviously in favour of the Gym guys). Paying for membership on the other hand leaves far less trophies for blue and purple gear which is definitely a problem in the higher brackets for all non-Rages (except if the latter haven't been nerfed). In any case though, it will take some time to see how much of this is true.

just because someone else can get more training points than you doesnt mean you're screwed. they will move on through the rankings faster and just reach a higher wall. all it really does is reduce the time needed to reach the end game. if someone wants to pay for that, so be it. playing for free is still viable, just slower. I would hate it if the only way to win was to spend cash, but thankfully it isnt. some of the top glads have gotten there without a dime being spent, just patience.

Quite possibly. They needed the same loving and I did mention this to Nate and Eric.

Just did my days worth of fights with Ela my Polearms War and there was no noticeable difference in damage. She still hits the equivalent damage to an exceptionally slow Axes & Maces glad.

My lvl 20 2H Rage scores monstrous criticals after the update, not sure if it a coincidence. Can't see any difference in the performance of my Polearms War though.

Ela most definitely has the right trains and good enough equipment to be a great gladiator... She just can't seem to land any solid hits.

250 average damage and only hitting once per round just wont cut it when most fights take between 5-12secs *Sigh*.

(Btw this is an older glad than Ivory and yet hasn't left a mark on the arena so far.)

[BlkTmplr]

I'm kinda stunned by the changes made to 2H's.

It was needed, there is no question there. What exactly has been changed though? This is a huge difference.

12 fights with Ivory. 8 against the 2H's floating around Maximus.
7 of the 2H fights were losses, 4 of these were deaths...
6 lossses were due to 1000+ hits including 3 of 4 deaths.

Just... Wow...

[Apoca1ypse]

2H rage should do that though. they still lose, and certainly die a lot still.
