My AI Gladiators have range issues..

[Vert]

They just keep swinging just out of reach, giving their opponents a chance to hit at every miss, I've leveled one of my gladiators to level 45 in meditation and they still do this.

researching evasive roll and agility training and high aggro on gladiators helps from my experience but yep its annying as hecc

That's your problem. That's a 45% trained man you're sending into the fight. I always give my gladiators 100 AI skill before I put them in matches.

I've had an 83 AI skill and a 100 AI skill do the same thing.

Does this seem to happen particularly with one gladiator class? and/or with a particular weapon?

I've seen this happen mostly with thraex vs. thraex fights, both when my guy has a gladius and a qama. It also seems to effect the ai sometimes, but whoever it happens to the opponent can get a free hit in, sometimes multiple, which can mean a lost match regardless of stats.

It's the same in my game. I need to evolve some abilities in the Doctore Screen, and then the thraex are able to fight against others. AI 100 wasn't just enough. It happens at Normal difficulty, but less on Easy

I also have this issue. My guy misses every swing by just a pixel, regardless of stats - and the other guy, significantly weaker, gets a quick shot in for almost no damage cus of the stat difference but it goes on for long enough that my guy eventually dies even tho he should be 1 shotting the dude.

It seems to most often happen with my very first gladiator that the game gives you - the first match I put him in, he gets wrecked due to AI issues. doesnt happen every game, but it happens regularly.
