Gladiators make for an excellent off-tank, but are also notable for their ability to deal AoE damage with several two-handed skills and polearms, or higher single-target DPS with greatswords.

Gladiator Abilities
What can I expect from playing a Gladiator in Aion Classic? Gladiator makes for a great tank but, unlike the Templar, they must retaliate with a lot of damage instead of just taking it.
Plate Armor is a valuable asset of the build that allows Gladiators to charge to the front lines, where they can target more difficult opponents, or take on several at once. Unlike Templars, however, Gladiators do need to watch their health actively and be careful with taking too many foes at once.
Solo and Group Capabilities
Playing Gladiator Solo

Playing solo should be of no issue to a Gladiator, with their rounded build having something to show both for defense and damage. Since they can use a variety of weapons, they are free to pick those that suit their situation the best, including daggers and bows. Gladiators can dual-wield with an Advanced Dual-Wielding I Stigma to maximize their DPS.
The only thing Gladiator has to worry about is their health bar — they are also particularly susceptible to magical attacks. It’s wise to ditch the shield and focus on dealing damage when it comes to solo strategy. A polearm is a particularly great weapon for this situation, allowing Gladiator not only to target multiple opponents, but to keep them off their feet and thus susceptible to a variety of chain skills.
Playing Gladiator in a Group

Polearms are also useful for AoE damage in group play, when the party is outmatched by their enemies. In certain cases, focusing on a single target makes the best sense, but in others generating enmity (aggro) is the best method to keeping enemies from cloth-wearing Mage and Priest classes to help them be as efficient as possible.
