The one thats not the brightest here is you. If there would be a price for being most retarded, you would win it.
The only thing, what such retarded fools like you can do, is not stop flaming and insulting, what others you can't. You're way too small minded for intelectual conversations about something.

Your a poor pitiful ***hole, which hides his inability of social behavior behind the "shield" of Anonymity. A person, I personally would call antisocial scum.

I did never said, that Gladiators fight only duels of 1vs1 ...
Wiki said it too: it were typical battles of Pairs and pairs are 2 Combatants - means 2 single Gladiators.... everything else was UNTYPICAL, but was also made, when REQUESTED.

The Point about Gladiator Title/ RA is.. there is NO Requestion.. players get all forced to make for gladiators untypical 4vs4 battles, where the standart are 1vs1 Duels or 1vsX (2-3) battles for a higher handicap.

Therefore the suggestion, that Anet should implement Gladiator Skills and make out of the Gladiator Title an own Gladiator PvP Mode similar to Costume Brawl with given balanced skill builds for each own profession, so that the game will receive finaly also a 1vs1 PvP, because it is impossible to make a balanced 1vs1 with all the existing old skills. It have to be new, extra for this mode based skills, only then there can exists in GW a balanced 1vs1 PvP Mode. And only 1vs1 with given Skill Builds similar to Costume Brawl require real gameplay skills and when it's 1vs1 it won't come with the typical problem of Leeching, because you simple can't leech in a 1vs1.

My last comment in here in this thread, because arguing with such a retard, like you is like talking with thick walls, there I have the same ignorance, only the arrogance can't simulate a wall oO


PS: @The Way out:

I never stated, that the gameplay around Gladiators ingame should become a 1:1 simulation of real gladiators from historic -.- , just that the concept around the title is screwed up, because it doesn't count to a 1vs1 pvp gameplay.. as it should better
If he's so retarded, why can't you use grammar?

I'd prot Phoenix with Spirit Bond, but you don't find monks in Gladiator Arenas, because it's not historically accurate to have them.

You guys are unbelievable. Just because you disagree with his idea doesn't make him a "noob". Some people don't play sixty hours a week like some of the people on this forum, and they just want an easier way to get titles. The rampant "elitism" is really going to far in GW. You guys need to realize that its a damn game, no a competition for who can put the most hours in.

ERgh. Terrible idea. Ab has its own reward system. Why not just give norn points for asura farming. Why not just give everyone maxed titles without working for it. /Epic fail.

No.
Again, AB is even easier than RA.
Not only that but it favours a certain side depending on the map.

I'm going to stretch a little and call you a scrub.

I see it fits you perfectly.

Not to mention that this idea is just bad.

1. Seriously, if Gladiator Points are that hard to earn that the OP needs them in AB, he's probably a noob.

2. I personally don't know anyone that plays over 20 hours a week.

3. All of the "elitism" would stop if people stopped being bad

4. Who said anything about "I have more hours than you, therefore I am better at the game."? Yes, it is just a game, but a lot of people are tired of noobs QQing to make the game easier.

My question is where have the mods been the last 7 pages? Any monkey with keyboard could see this topic had flame bait written all over it and that it was just going to degrade (considering where it started is this even the right word) into useless arguements, elitism, and general chaos. With how actively mods are banning, locking, and editing in other forums, I'm surprised and, sadly disapointed, the same attention is not given to threads as deserving as this.
And one more time, can we get a lock on this thread?

I just had a thought, instead of glad points, how about some other form of point system if you win a lot of battles while you are in the opposing faction's second and final bases. Maybe you get a bonus if your side takes over the capital.

You're missing the point.

AB takes no skill. RA takes none either, and shouldn't be given glad points either.

Good example of the downfall of the GW community.

TA and HA are different to RA because u can do spikes because you set up the teams and you can organise builds and vent/TS, so pre-judging HA and TA just because you find it hard is not exactly the best thing to do, all u have to do is get through RA and earn your glad points in TA..........., or forget about glad points, get to HA and gane fame.

How is that an example of the downfall?

They take no skill, and thus achievements in a skill-less arena shouldn't be rewarded, sort of like PvE.

Granted, this applies to RA for the most part as well but as it stands Glad points are exclusively for 4v4 arenas. There's no reason to extend them to AB because , for one thing, there are no consecutive victories, and secondly because your own contribution is watered down by the fact you're in a giant team of lunatics against another team of lunatics in a sea of NPCs battling over capture points.
QFT

RA and those low lvl pvp areas are mean't to be the base for a better pvp, and while you can face some retarded gimmick builds from TA to HA\GVG there are some balanced builds that are funny to fight against

The worst builds i've ever seen are from there, today I saw a necro being killed by a flesh golem just in the entrance of his own base, I mean, he could just step back 2 steps and and the golem would have been killed by the base defender, but no, he chose to wand the mm to death.

Long story short, I don't want a player like that necro to earn glad points for his noobness
