Talisman Money is advanced that the Warrior can become once they Ascend. This class is the heavy duty, in your face melee DPS champion. They are masters of two handed weapon combat, and have high health and defense. They are mainly a physical damage class, and their gear and abilities reflect that. Unlike the Templar, they cannot do any kind of healing. Talisman Gladiators have a large selection of weapons and armor to choose from. They can wear any armor in the game, but wearing Heavy Plate is generally the best choice for Talisman Gold. They can use most weapons in the game, from swords to pole arms. This class can tank as well as DPS, but they really shine as off tanks that use their stuns and brute force to keep enemies in line. They also have a special racial ability, which is Explosion of Rage for Asmodians and DP Explosion for the Elyot. Explosion of Rage and DP Explosion both inflict level based physical damage on the target and forces it to stumble.
Most of the Stigmas available to them are related to Attack Power, Damage and Physical Attacks. Gladiators are meant to be the second line of defense in a party setting when they are not tanking. They bring their damage and their armor, and stand between both the melee characters like Chanters or Assassins and the ranged characters like Rangers or Spiritmasters.
Keep everything that is dropped until you can absolutely confirm it has Talisman online Gold to use. I had the misfortune to throw out all of my refining stones in the beginning Poets zone, thinking I did not need them. I was definitely wrong. Some items start minibuses if clicked on twice, for free experience and money. There only disposable items are the useless gray- named monster drops, but have a high sell value so keep them until you go into town. So expand your cube if you think you do not have room, but keep all you find.
