Understand Gladiator Might
Useful when…
- Increasing melee critical damage
- Using a Madurai-polarity melee mod
Effect and fit
At maximum rank, Gladiator Might grants +60% Critical Damage; rank 0 grants +10%, and rank 3 grants +40%. It is a standard melee mod with Madurai polarity, base drain 4, and maximum rank 5.
Investment and alternatives
Listed examples cost 20 Endo and 966 Credits for rank 0 to 1, 80 Endo and 3,864 Credits for rank 2 to 3, and 320 Endo and 15,456 Credits for rank 4 to 5. Amalgam Organ Shatter lists +85% Critical Damage and +60% Heavy Attack Wind Up Speed, with base drain 6. Blood Rush instead adds critical chance that stacks with Combo Multiplier. Dreamer's Wrath is an Exilus mod that enables Tennokai and adds opportunity chance and critical damage for Tennokai attacks. These alternatives have distinct effects and slot or capacity demands.
Limitations
Might adds critical damage, not critical chance. Its contribution depends on the weapon and build producing critical hits; the supplied effect does not grant a Tennokai or Combo condition.
Limitations and tradeoffs
- Requires critical hits to make its stat relevant.
- Higher ranks cost increasingly more Endo and Credits.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Confusing critical damage with critical chance.
- Assuming it enables Tennokai or scales with Combo Multiplier.
