The gladiators only mace skill, this skill does significant blunt damage and reduces the remaining movement points of the opponent somewhat. It's the gladiators strongest blunt skill making it useful against foes vulnerable to blunt, like aelin.

The movement point drain can add up quickly on an opponent who tries to flee a lot. It's an all or nothing move, but if they get caught with zero movement points at any point, they will be completely unable to flee.
