Final Kill Counts:
Human 4: 4 final blows
Dwarf 2: 2 final blows
Human 3: 1 final blow
Human 2: 1 final blow

AG is awarded based on a few factors. How many final blows were dealt, victories, how long it took to die, whether your character participated, etc. There are also a couple of modifiers in place to keep it fair so that characters who really didn't stand a chance get a bit more and characters who did insanely well get a bit less. Even the one who died first and made no kills will be given something. AG is updated on the first page under gladiators. Thanks for playing! If you have enough, you may upgrade skills/weapons/armor.

!!NOTE!!
If you are upgrading weapons/armor I will buy back a previous weapon/armor for 5 AG (no matter the quality). So, please factor this into your upgrades.

First of all, copper may be poor but it's better than nothing.

Secondly, I honestly expected to lose at least one. I'll have to agree with stabby here, adamantine is too cheap. Probably increase its price by 50% or 100% if needed.

So what if it's the FUN METAL? If she wants to keep adamantine to a low cost it adds more fun itself.

That's the thing. This now means that armor won't save you from everything. You can't just stand there and let armor do the work. It's why I put points in dodge.

Armor doesn't help, but every other defense does.

Just thought I'd tell you, there's no reason to buy an adamantine shield. Due to how shields work, material only affects shield bashing, and blocking is a fixed stat. Since bashing is blunt, and adamantine is horrible at that, it's the worst shield you can make.

My idea on keeping adamantine low (but not too low) was that you'd almost have to spend all of your points on just the adamantine piece, leaving very little for armor and skills over 5. I do see the issue here though and adamantine will be raised. Anyone who chose adamantine anything before this post can keep what they have (though, I may have to pit you against NPCs for the time being.)

@Person: You are absolutely right. 8) Let's hope others notice that.

@Everyone else: Anyone can join at any time. There will probably not be a new battle post before 12AM PST today. If anyone ever has a suggestion, please make it. Copper armor will not be instituted.
