How do you know how much hp the enemy has? I get the damage totals for each attack, but I don't see any indicator of how much health they have to start with.

Click on the little + that's next to most messages and it'll pop up the numbers for current/total HP, END, and whatever status effects are active.

edit:

How do you kill enemy gladiators? I just beat one by getting it down to 19 hp and then hitting it again for 70 more. That's -51, out of a total of 249. More than 20% of its hp in negative - yet it's still saved by the enforcer.

My guess (probably wrong) is that it's an opposed presence roll, modified by any skills that make it more/less likely to kill/be killed.

Luck, Presence, the Theatric skills and Killshot I wager...  It really helps if the battle ends quickly too/opponent doesn't do much damage? 
(Applejack has 83 presence, that might help her with kills a heck of a lot.... up to 6 now.. and Armok is up to 11, don't know what he has for him to help, but he is a rage.)

EDIT: Actually, minus the damage part.  Less actions = more likely to get the bad end.

I've been meaning to ask - is it worth upgrading your armory?

I've got mine at either level 1 or 2 (whichever gives you access to 'medium' armors), and, as far as I can tell, their usefulness outside of equipping brand-new fighters seems very limited. The stuff is heavy, low protection (for armor) and low damage (for weapons) - the only things going for it is that it doesn't need to be repaired and you'll be able to fill all your fighter's slots.

That said, it's got something like 5 or 6 upgrades, so there must be more to it then just offering grey-level items.

edit: Oh, and while I'm asking questions - what the heck goes in those four little slots? Rings?

[dogstile]

Velupes seems to be killing quite often and her presence is damned low compared to everything else. I've noticed she usually gets a kill if she ends the fight on a monster hit.

Edit: At level 3 it offers all the weapons and armour at grey level, at level 4 it'll give you 7% off blacksmith discount, then 33% but that costs trophy's.

I'd say it's worth it, you'll eventually have so much gold you can't use it all anyway. Might as well extend that to the blacksmith.

Edit edit: No idea, not even the high level fighters use them. I don't think they're implemented.

[Rex_Nex]

Just wait until gold becomes a non-issue. Usually about the time your 2nd glad hits level 10.

A reminder to folks, We got a google spreadsheet.

I must say, my new Theatrics, Vinyl Scratch, seems promising... maybe I'll keep her.

Poke the OP to get it in the first post, that'd be the easiest way to not lose track of it.

Annnd suddenly my rage 2h is losing. Went from nothing but 300+ crits to hitting for 50-80 every couple rounds.

damnit someone bumped me into fucking juggernaut

[lionstar]

Armok is level 20 now, and approaching the top 100 in Juggernaut.

[Eagle_eye]

how do you advance so fast? I use up all my fight tokens, and tavern contracts, but my gladiators never go up more than one or two levels a day.

[Rex_Nex]

Well, he has been playing for 11 days now and is level 20. I've been playing for 10 days and am level 19... so yeah, thats about right. You go up 2/3 levels for the first 5 days or so, then once per day for the rest of your time.

Anyone who actually writes like that should be put to death

@Eli Andreww Fight: Wow...  speedy dual wielding War.  Fast strong hits and good chance of stuns?  Yea, seems to be an interestingly effective tactic against 2-handers.
Actually, considering it...  Desodan, another dual wielding gladiator I faced has trounced my Applejack twice on 2 separate occasions...  I may find some trouble against these types it seems.


Also, Scootaloo has faced my Pinkie Pie...  I think the lass was lucky to survive that bout.
