Gladiator: Stregth vs Phys Regen

[Wrage]

I have been building glads as a fairly balanced charecters, but I want to try an exeriment so I started 2 new glads one where I adding just str points and one with just phys regen. points to see which will be more powerful. Has anyone else done this? What has been your conclusion?

Insane!!!!!!!! Why have one without the other??? You have to spread it across them both period.



Dead Skin Mask - Underworld Edition

I started my glad with the option to pick my first to skills - Dual Weilding and Concentration. I then rune farmed until level 20 NEVER reading any. I was able to begin with 15 for Attack and 10 for Hard Hit. I have been placing the points in Strength first, then to Physical regen and so on getting every one of them up past 100. I have been using skills. Armor, DW, Concentration, Constitution.... all over 100% attack and so forth.

The UW set items make Dalmers look like a playschool item. Each time to gain one I look to drop the last on someone in need. I have 2 red helms (names escape me) to pass on right now. I was all for the Dwarf and the Daemon until I began to build DSM in UW where I am yet again dominating things and leading others into the heat of battle.

I am at level 48ish now and have been able to clear pirate island already (did I mention the underground grave yard of super bad guys) find that in the pavilion on volcano island. Warning better have a inventory full of pots and a secret weapon (mine combo of 4 attacks level 30 and 4 HH level 17)

What else do you want to know about the glad for UW? He is more powerful than the one in S+ I can see that already. Yet I seem to be the only one around in the UW servers so far. I am the king of the world!!!!!!

the old builds were best when you put everything into phys regen. the logic being your strength naturally increases faster then phys regen and items with + to str are (or were) common.

Phys regen lowers the CA regen of the glad arts and increases hit points as well. All of my previous glads were Phys regen only spends

then again, Rooster swears by strength, as a lot of the glad stuff has got +%str to damage and resists, and it did work nicely for him, so I think it depends a bit on what gear you will be using, phys regen is always a safe bet, but it seems str can give a higher benefit with the right items?

Thought i'd add this here

The Glad in UW rocks started one and went all the way up to level 18 dual wielding two EL's, activated no CA's was using level 1 Attack, no LL either and was in the Khorad nur desert at level 12 solo and was devasting the foe before me. When i'd finsihed i'd collected 16 set pieces 200K and 65 runes.
