Magic Gladiator is a hybrid class that can be played as Physical or Magical Damage Dealer.
Stat Priority:
1. Energy /Strength - Main source of damage depends on the skill.
2. Agility - Main source of Speed and Armor
3. Vitality - Main source of Health
Tips for Magic build:
- Your highest hiting ability is Dark Blast
- Your best AoE ability is Havok Spear or Gigantic Storm
- You should use Magic Mastery Armor (B)
- Always use Elemental Charge Buff.
- Gladiator gains 20% Damage bonus when 2 Staffs of the same kind are used.
That is why you should never MIX weapons. Wearing just one weapon is a big damage loss.
However you can play with a shield and that will give you extra survivability, in some scenarios it is actually better to prioritize health and damage decrease rather than Damage.
-Upgrade your weapons as soon as possible because they give you % damage increase.
- Complete 3rd and 4th quest As soon as possible, because energy build will gain extra bonuses (more than any other class) when learning new skills in the 3rd and 4th tier!
- When looking for spots, check your damage on different monsters as some have low magic/physical resistance and that will help you deal more damage. We did this on purpose on ParagonMu so that players not only look for spots but also check where is the best monsters for them.
Tips for Strength build:
- Chose your prefered playstyle: 2Handed weapon or Dual 1 Handed
