WTF??

How come you need 500 points for first rank?? isn't that a bit much? Teo 22:40, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

There was a proposal going around to change the way people progress in the gladiator title. Go to this discussion page if you want more info. By the looks of things, they went with proposal one. I don't know if title progression works that way though, I'm still downloading the update. :S (Terra Xin 22:50, 23 August 2007 (UTC))

Table makes no sense

I suggest we leave the table as it was before the August 23 update and make a note that the update scaled up the points required to gain the title. As it is currently, the table makes no sense.--Stormrunner 00:22, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, but if the proposal goes into full effect, we will need to update it.--Insane Maestro 16:07, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Emote Proposals

If that was implemented, it would be great! Unfortunately i doubt ANet would implement this. Shame :( - Kiji 22:01, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

It will happen =D Blackie ewilson92 23:00, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

It may happen. --Mme. Donelle 04:11, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

Gladiator Title Emotes would be awesome, the last one could be Balthazar or Rurik or something like that

We have already seen a Balthazar and Rurik in the game. I kinda hope for something new.Blackie ewilson92 17:21, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Gladiator emotes ? Very stupid idea... Tiberium 15:58, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

10 times better than zaishen rank emotes tho. - Wuhy 01:10, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

rx?

Many people at HA, only let others that has a certain r(better know as RANK=Gladiator Rank)to participate, no offense but thats bull. The function of a build doesn't change no matter what's the user, only if the user knows how to use it. "r4+", wtf? Why would some people need that?--ShadowFog 16:31, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Normally in HA they'll be talking about hero rank, not gladiator rank when asking for r4+ etc. Many teams will take gladiator ranks but they tend to be valued higher. rank 3 gladiator is often taken for entry into a rank 5 or 6 hero HA team. As to why they do it, its because they feel it gives them a better chance of winning, there are numerous flame-threads on the forums as to whether they're right or not. Sadie2k 06:34, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

PublicHero The Gladiator title, like the hero title is imo to high capped, i think we should have a better chance in maxing these titles instead of having the high end geeks bumming HA and TA at every chance they get to a title worth the same as any other title. Luxon & Kurzick titles are now insanely easy to max out in comparison, i think the gladiator and hero titles should be atleast smaller capped.PublicHero

Fail less in the game pvers. Those titles r fine as they are and learn2play if they're too hard for you. 91.152.187.195 03:32, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

agreed. plz stop the QQ'ing silly stupid PvE nublets. /siiiiigh --Uchiha Lena 12:14, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Uh... Gladiator is a PvP title. Wrong page you guys.--ShadowFog 03:00, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

personally i don't like that either. it makes it hard for people with a lower rank (r2 and down) to get a team. but that also has something to do with the fact you can't show your title until r3. personally i'm only r1 with 41 fame and thats from doing HA with guildies and friends. the tough part is when you don't have enough ppl and have to pug the rest, those ppl expect a ranked team. if everyone isnt r3 they leave. Daeheru 19:23, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

well, this would only be good if ppl from ra would have a chance in ta, or you could advance further than 10 wins(generally), so you could actually gain points like 4 in order.. or you could gain points by achieving something within the arena(3 successful interrupts in order, win under 1:30 mins(not counting resign or an enemy leaving), or things like that, but of course well thought out and tested), atm its a grindfest which proves lena's(as always) and the ip's point wrong since grindfests are bad, especially if you need to do so in order to enter some good(or at least high ranked) group. - Wuhy 01:22, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

bug

i made 10 wins on RA but the glad bar remained at the same number. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 79.103.39.179 (talk).

Did you manage 10 wins consecutively? That is, 10 straight wins. If you did, then you're in need of support, not the wiki community. -- ab.er.rant 15:19, 25 December 2008 (UTC)

Math moved.

Moved the math to max this title to the "trivia" section since it seems more of a "trivial" question than "aquisition". --Uchiha Lena 20:37, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Glad emote?

I always thought /rank was the emote for the glad track, but was told that is for the hero track. Is there an emote, and if so, what is it? About to hit r3 and only want it for the emote lol 209.33.14.48 16:34, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

what you are thinking about is the Zaishen rank--splatterpuss 16:01, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

If your about to hit r3 glad, then you wouldn't ask such a stupid question... Tiberium 16:03, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

There's nothing wrong with asking that question at all--splatterpuss 16:05, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Apparently,

Gladiator rank affects gold drops. Like 1% chance of better drops for every rank. or according to some kid in my guild, who claims to be friends with a game designer. He's tryin to convince me to synch RA with him this weekend. Oh, and I don't believe him, if you think I'm being serious about that. personn5 01:16, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Well.......that was pointless. Karate Jesus 01:18, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

YAY for update

Now that TA has been removed, it's finally possible to get more points in RA, not just 3 in 1 run and then getting killed by some lame rtl or shove spike etc. /roar Drake Slasher 14:31, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

No give us back TA!

after 25 cons

There's extra 5 glad points before you are sent back to outpost, so you gain 19 points for 25 cons now! --Abbc 19:59, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

I got 24 and got kicked out bcoz somebody else in the group got 25 and that means we missed out on 4+5....--Silven 06:12, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Yes it sucks. If only there was a way to tell which match number for that team it was. Yesterday I was at 23 wins and an update was released, so we all had to logout... grrr but that happens. :P --189.83.176.86 11:12, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Maybe following thing should be added to the mainpage: It is possible for everyone to get 25 in a row even when someone in team got some more points then the rest. If that guy is that fair and leave fast when he get 25 (before next-match-counter) the rest of team will stay. I got this today, Elementalist got 25 wins, rest 24, we want him to leave and he left before counter so the rest of team got the chance to get 25 match and we did it with a derv instead of ele. --Kali Shin Shivara 16:22, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

difficulty to attain?

i find this title to be excedingly difficult to attain now without TA, TA used 2 be ez2 rank farm in, but now in RA... my current math puts it at 2.1yrs assuming you got 50pts/day, thats alot of devotion to attain now... considering the number of PvX shitters who are like bad bots, no monk teams, 3 monk teams, leavers, occasional D/C of a key player mid-match... afks Summary: either fix RA (no more syncers) change the team size or add several new options (things like a 1v1 areans, 2v2s etc. --The Scythe Has Fallen | Speak Now in the Chaos 19:26, 15 May 2010 (UTC)

having 400+points is hardly bad it just takes so fucking long to get rank now --The Scythe Has Fallen Ω|Ω talk Ω|Ω 20:47, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

I Hate hero title and gladiator title. If Anet does this same system for PvP in GW2... count me out of it. So hard for a player just to do pvp... Screwed for HA if you don't grind glad points everyday... and the average gamer can't do that. I usually get 3-10 g-points an hour.

Anyone else jump a gladiator rank because the scaling is x8 for your gladiator points, and the scaling is x5 for the titles? Anvi God _zzz... 23:40, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

90% to g5 > 85% to r6. Up one. Ryuu  *bite* 23:43, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

I was Glad 1 or something. Now I'm Glad 3. Go figure. 86.23.8.204 12:51, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

Uhm no , coz simple math u had like ~150p * 8 = 1200 ( Approx ) which means u might be max g2... . --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 83.25.231.163 (talk).

Bonus Points

As the description says you earn bonus points at 5-10-15-20-25 wins. Tried to observe during my last streak, I think the bonus points you get are the following: 3-6-10-25-50. Or something close to that, this should be verified. Cheers 194.254.54.183 07:04, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

I reached 25 a number of times after the update. I think the bonus is 6-9-12-15-18. Making the total points obtained at 25 wins 1(3)+6+2(4)+9+3(4)+12+4(4)+16+4(5)+18 = 119. I wasn't paying close attention but its pretty positive that the total is under 150 but over 100. 69.177.115.224

needs more info

Someone needs to add the bonus points per 5,10,15,20,25 wins, and also to put the total points achievable at 25 wins. please~ 76.164.71.53 04:14, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

correct amount of points

Consecutive wins	2-4	5	6-9	10	11-14	15	16-19	20	21-24	25
Points earned for each win	1	5	2	6	3	7	4	8	5	15

I did not get multiplied points

"Players who already had acquired Gladiator points before the update on June 2, 2011, had their total number of points multiplied by 8 to compensate for the difficulty and raised tiers."

I haven't been playing for like 2 years or so, and when I stopped playing I had 344 glad points, now when I logged in I still have 344 points. Am I missing something? Awk72 22:22, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

344 happens to be 43*8 I'm sorry but I think your points were multiplied but you didn't realise.. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 178.117.35.5 (talk • contribs) at 17:31, 19 May 2012 (UTC).

Before the first change i about 99% away from makeing Rank 1 Gladiator. after the change i was about 99% from makeing rank 1 Gladiator, indicateing that anet didnt multiply my points but instead gave me a percentage based on what i already had. By my count i should have be awarded ~R5 Glad... Didnt even know about the second change but i can tell you i wasnt compensated for that one either. 180.131.220.207 14:16, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

Just under 3 years for max title from 0?

If you can only get 200 points daily... That means you need to play for 1000 days, resulting in just under 3 years of daily playing...???? --84.192.178.19 18:07, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Well, your crude math doesn't take into account bonus weeks, where the cap is also doubled along with the points received. But yes, PvP titles take very long to max. Luckily you only need rank 3 or something to display it in HoM. Jeree95 (talk) 15:11, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
