Description

Although this item lacks the Indestructible or self-repairing trait, an ethereal Gladiator's Bane is worth significantly more than a standard copy because of its value when worn by a mercenary. This is one of the few worthwhile items an Act II mercenary can wear that will natively grant the Cannot Be Frozen bonus.

Also, the flat magic damage reduction (which includes magic and fire, lightning and cold damage) trait makes a mercenary much more useful when accompanying the player to a
Travincal run. A mercenary with this item and maxed out fire resistance will usually out-life leech the damage caused by
Council Member hydras.

This is a fantatsic item for melee characters, because of the high defense and 'damage/magic damage reduced by x' mod on it. With this armor, plus Thundergod's viper, I was able avoid getting 2-3 hit
Ko'd from Glooms in Worldstone keep in hell.

The only drawback to this armor is the high level requirement (85!) for a bunch of mods that by themselves are not that special.

The armor can usually be gotten cheaply, usually for a couple of mid-tier runes, because traders often over look these mods.

The Gladiator's Bane is an effective choice for Immortal Enchantresses and other "Immortal" Sorceress variants, to the point it seems almost tailor-made for the task. Damage Reduced by X / Magic Damage Reduced by X are factored in after
Energy Shield has diverted a fraction of incoming damage to mana, meaning a Gladiator's Bane (potentially socketed with a
Sol or
Mal for additional protection) will mitigate a good deal of the remaining damage that would otherwise reach the health globe.

The Gladiator's Bane also sports Cannot Be Frozen, likely freeing up a ring slot that would otherwise go to
Raven Frost (perhaps for the myriad benefits a second
Stone of Jordan can offer the Enchantress).

Finally, Poison Length Reduced by 50% can help manage incoming poison damage--the only damage type that bypasses
Energy Shield completely.
