Going on for 5 years old and this is still my favorite Gladiator video.

I. can't. stop. watching! Favorite Gladiator pvp video!

Thanks dude,actually those hints worked awesome in some pvp's i made against SM's.Keep doing PvP videos,they are very helpful for a lot of gladiators like me^^

You and Feel always have the best Videos, and I love your Intros. Keep Rockin it Uhiwi!

Best PvP video ever! Very nice music, nice gameplay, good weave...its perfect!

The Godladiator himself in all his majesty. RIP Old Israphel server i miss you.

Control is art.

And of course; Amazing video, great job. Intro is very catchy, music was perfect.

Omen-Prodigy instrumental of the first pvp vid indeed gave me the chills ;)

I like everything in this Vid. Edit Music Gameplay ♡

Nice one uhiwi..... best as always.... miss plyin with u guys...

Greatly Enjoyed!!! W8ing for more vids in the future and hopefully sooner ;)

That was very enjoyable

My dream came true.. Thanks Uhiwi sooo much for making this

Great video Uhiwi, nicely done!

I use qweasd for movement, 1-6 for the skills in the first row, alt1-5 for the skills in the 2nd row, ~ for remove shock, alt+~ for strengthen wings, and literally everything else is bound to my Razer Naga -- I highly recommend buying one if you're serious about improving your gameplay, it was the best purchase I have ever made. I also have the Razer Anansi keyboard, which has extra modifier buttons below the spacebar that go well with the Naga. I have something like 40 keybinds on my mouse.

Nice vid Uhiwi! Glad to see an extendable in good hands :P PS: We miss you in Tiamat! :c

GOD is back :33 i've waited a loooooong long time for this vid ^^ thank you Uhiwi, you're beast!!!

Finally, the long awaited vid...and beast as usual -Midou-

Good stuff Uhiwi, finally glad you got your video out. -Mufflerman

Hey, ran into you on GW the other day again, wondered where you've been (its Q). Awesome as always to see a glad who actually knows what they are doing, and isnt winning full derpmode.

Plz do more, you are AWESOME!

Enjoyed music, effects, pvp = 10/10

Best Video i have seen in my life , Gj u are best from NA ;) +10

I have wrathful strike as the secondary chain skill in the Ferocious chain because I like to see its cooldown at all times. And I think the skill you're referring to is Armor of Attrition, which heals me for 100 and reflects 70 damage back each time I am attacked for 15 seconds

I sometimes use two different strategies versus SM. One is to cover all of my important buffs (UD, SW, Charge) with others (4 scrolls, potion, antishock, AoA, etc) so they can't get stripped off. The other is to use 0 important buffs until you see them waste a strip, and then use buffs the moment you need them. Other than that, it is mainly about getting in close asap and knocking them down so they can't get their full rotation off.

AWESOME VIDEO + AWSOME MUSIC!!!

Most swaggerlicious playstyle #global Seriously though, I love your movement.

pure beast!

Gratz and thanks , love the way u play . Why "seismic wave V" in keybinding ? Explain us why you go 1000 crit and 2k7 accu . Did you try another set armour ? manastones ?

All-of-sudden comeback :O

pretty good pvping. makes me want to try gladiator

WOW sick video, very nice!

Awesome, like always! =)

I recommend rushing to level 65 and doing the bloodmark dailies/weeklies to get that gear. Unfortunately there aren't any new options for extendables unless you already had the one from 3.0, so the bloodmark polearm is the best you can do in such short time. Gladiators aren't terrible, but are definitely difficult to succeed with solo. They shine in group PvP, however, so I would recommend finding 1-3 friends, one being a cleric, to roam around with and I think you'll have a much better time.

Your Intro is awesome! Well played too for sure :p

I think greatswords can be good, especially if you're shooting for a higher accuracy build. The trade-off is damage/crit vs attack speed/accuracy. I've personally always preferred the higher damage of polearms, and I've gotten so used to the weaving patterns and animations of polearms that I think using a greatsword might throw me off a little. I think both could perform equally well, though, it just comes down to preference

OMMMMMMMMMMMMG UHIWI THE LEGEND IS BACK

Best Glad i've ever have seen. Dat Weaves :D

Nice to see you using sharp strike in this one, i couldnt stand watching your last one because of that :( nice vid, can see you put big efforts into editing. happy chibibi~ ^.^

It's worth it! People use Tendon Slice instead of ankle snare, also sharp strike is a pretty hard hitting skill on a short cd

Nice video pal, good music too

I've always thought that there won't be a glad pvp vid who could surpass your 2.7 one ^^ i guess i was wrong. well done!

I haven't played too much in 4.0, but I am trying out a crit/parry set right now with the new bloodmark armor (parry ancient stones). It seems to be pretty OP against melee and in group PvP, since you don't sacrifice a lot of msupp for it and you trade for high survivability against melee. Otherwise, I think msupp ancient manstones are your best choice, especially with the 2 new magic classes introduced this patch, because you can get enough crit+acc using just the regular manastone slots.

And not only is extendability good for chasing a kiting target, it gives you the ability to kite other melee classes that don't have the luxury of 7m attack range. In a pvp encounter, avoiding damage is just as important as dishing it out, and compared to other classes glads lack means of avoiding damage--they are usually forced to just tank everything. Glads with eternal spears already hit like trucks, so I think sacrificing just a little bit of damage for the extra utility is well worth it.

I have Seismic Wave bound because it costs way less mana than Absorbing Fury, I use it in PvE sometimes to conserve mana. 1000 crit is to negate the maximum ~450 strike resist players can have on retail servers, such that I still have 550 crit against them (~49.5% crit chance) 2700 accuracy is to negate the evasion of sins/rangers who can achieve 2400-2600 evasion with Dodging (ranger) or Evasive Boost (sin) while I have Berserking up (-200 accuracy for me)

Amazing vid

Very good uhiwi !

Often times SMs will try to remove shock your first knockdown and use Backdraft or the remove shock fear; if they do you can immediately use aerial lockdown when the RS buff disappears and it should be an easy win after that. Use Strengthen Wings as soon as you are slowed/rooted, but also if you predict you are going to be double-debuffed and silenced so that have a chance to resist the root after. Use GHP on shackle/body root. That's about all I can think of at the moment. Good luck :P

I use the same stigmas, except I take out Exhausting Wave for Spin Block. My stats with the parry set are ~900 crit and ~3650 parry buffed with food/scroll and slaughter. For the magic suppression set, there isn't really a number to aim for, you should just go as high as possible. If you are using the bloodmark gear, I think you can still have decent acc/crit while using every ancient slot for magic suppression. If you can afford 2 sets, bloodmark is better as parry, though, and 60a2 for msupp.

Uhiwi, you're my idol \o/ Keep the awesome work ^.^

I think MR/Crit is a good build if you have a strong non-extendable to make up for the lost stats, it helps to resist some of the slows, binds, and godstones that often mess you up when fighting a group of people. Without MR, you basically have to focus on killing the classes that threaten you as quickly as possible while kiting the others around as best you can. Just because I win some 1v4s in this video though doesn't mean I win them a lot, I probably lose them 90% of the time :P

Best pvp video!

good times

I prefer sharp strike because it is a hard-hitting quick-animation attack on a short cooldown. Because I am solo a lot, I use all the HP absorption stigmas, i.e. Exhausting Wave and Absorbing Fury, because in long fights they give you some additional survivability. I think these stigmas go further in longer fights than say Piercing rupture would And my keybinds are pretty simple, I use 1-6 and alt+1-alt+6 for my main attacks and kd skills, and virtually everything else is bound to my Razer Naga

I use W to move forward, I hold right click my mouse to pan my camera to turn left and right, and I use Q and E to strafe left and right

Отличный гладиатор! ))

HUGE!!

Just a like for the description xD and nice gameplay BTW :)

Thank you for the fast answer :) Which Pole would you recommend? I thought of extendables, but most of them got really bad Base stats related to the non-extendables. I decided to take a non- extendable because of the stats. However my range is way too short then... Do you use an extendable or non-extendable Pole? P.S. Ur video is really good! Forgot to write it before ;) Liked it!

Great video and skill :D liked

yeeey uhiwi!

Awesome

One Man Army Uhiwi

I'm impressed this video isn't sped up O.O'

Very Nice.

Great!

amazing, greetings from Nexus EU!

Perfect intro

Radeon HD 6970 GPU, AMD FX-8150 8-core Processor, 16GB RAM. It's a decent setup, I run the game at 60fps on HQ engine, however I do have fps lag during siege, dropping to maybe 25-30fps, so I typically just shift+F12 (hide player models) for big sieges and I can get back to 50-60fps that way.

I used to play with him quite a bit before he made his video, after that he moved to Korea I think and I haven't seen him since

The best gladiator undoubtedly karhun server. My girlfriend and I played this server currently suffer from your power because we asmo, we appear in your video in the first part, my character is bombonita (ranger) and my girlfriend is Dulcedeleche (cleric). You are one of the few who is not afraid to zerg and that must be respected. My congratulations for the beautiful video. We envy your ping, unfortunately we play with 200 ping and it becomes difficult to excel. GL, greetings from Argentina.

any class can be good in the right hands, just pick the one you like the most and get good at it.

y same what i thougt first^^. He's moving freaky XD. But it's awesome for the ways i noticed.

ur skill lvl is nearly like in korea and china keep it up m8

UHIWI ! i waiting too long for a new video ! for me, you just the best GLAD ever.. (best weave)

True, true

That intro.... lol nice video bro

I'm sure you can go on just about any Aion forum and find debates on whether extendability is worth sacrificing the stats for. Personally, I think the attack range far outweighs the damage/stats you sacrifice, it is loads easier to stick to moving targets without having godlike reflexes and 0 ping, even the ones that know not to kite in a straight line but to shake you off by moving unpredictably.

In my experience, relying on debuffs (AS, EQW) in 3.0 doesn't work well with the high base MR people have from 60a2 armor as well as many people stacking MR on top of that. I think you can make up for not having as many roots/slows if you have an extendable and good movement, too. It was also convenient having dual wield equipped 24/7 because I use it for forts and PvE. And whirling strike has a super clunky animation, it doesn't really close any distance on moving targets, so nobody uses it.

Hi Uhiwi :) Have you tried extendable Greatsword instead of polearm? :) By the way, nice vid. Keep up good work! :)

It drops from a 12 man instance called Dragon Lord's Refuge off of the final boss Tiamat. I think the instance was added to the game in 3.7, but I'm not entirely sure.

THE KING OF TIAMARANTA EYE :D nice man :D the best gladi ever:D

Hey Uhiwi, nice to see a new vid of you on Kahrun server, I quit the game like 5 - 6 months ago, I still have my glad somewhere in Kahrun too, my ign is Otaru maybe you never seen me since you kind of transfered when I was quitting, how's everything going over there? When I quit asmos where blocking eye almost everyday, have fun and keep hunting them.

I miss this update too much t.t

Просто царь

Your editing skills and the whole idea behind it is just awesome. I'm playing Kahrun/Asmo now too. Maybe we'll get a chance to do some duels one day or run some pvp together. ~ Magicx

hahaha , Nice video bro , Tweetty here .. Miss our pvp's :/

Haha, OP vid wiwi! Best intro ever :P

Uhiwi is the special gladiator

Gladi for the WINN :)

I believe 550 is one of the soft crit caps. As far as I know, this is how crit works; the soft caps are: 1% chance per 10 crit up to 440, then 0.5% chance per 10 crit up to 550, then 0.25% per chance per 10 crit up to 660. There may be more soft caps after that, I'm not sure, but the %-per-crit would start to drop off too much after 660 for it to be worth stacking more. Is this what you were asking about, or something else?

pro glad , gz

With your parry set do you sacrifice accuracy to slot parry manastones? How much accuracy do you run with?

I got one question, Which manastones do you prefer to use in 4.0 ? I mean those blue manastones. For 1v1 and open world pvp, thanks

hey, why do u have dual wielding and sharp strike? :s isnt it better to get ankle snare and one other dmg stigma? i dont think that sharp strike is that good to waste 2 stigma slots for (because of advanced dual wielding)

If there are any recordings, Feel would have them, but it was so long ago I'm sure they're long gone :P

I do experience a big FPS drop though, I normally play at 60 FPS, however recording drops me to 30-49 FPS and it's difficult to play with sometimes. I actually decided to use a program to throttle my FPS to 30-40 all the time while I was making my video so that I could get used to playing with it and so that pressing the record button wouldn't be as much of a shock. :P You might want to try other programs too (such as Bandicam) that could work better for you. I hope this helps.

ok, one more question: do i just need advanced dual wielding for 4.0 or the whole second stigma tree? i have kahrun's polearm +13 atm, but everytime i want to do TS, ppl tell me to get dual wielding tree (its obligatory for 4.0) -.- the only chance to get in to TS is to be group leader :O

great ! luck luck :D
