The combos they set up for Gladiator to use in a solo situation annoy me. Two of them require you to stun a monster so that they won't turn as you're setting up for the other ability, that is if you want the additional affect to land.

GLA WS 1 Melee attack. Damage increased when executed from in front of the target.
　∟GLA WS 3 Melee attack.
Combo: GLA WS 1 Bonus: Increased damage.
　　　∟GLA WS 4 O Melee attack. Chance to inflict a DoT effect when executed from behind the target.
Combo: GLA WS 3, Bonus: Increased DoT.

GLA WS 5 O Ranged attack. Defense decreased when executed from behind the target.
　∟GLA WS 6 O Fivefold attack with low accuracy.
Combo: GLA WS 5, Bonus: Increased accuracy.

I don't see how you can viably get these off in a solo situation because shield bash counts as its own WS and I would assume it would interrupt both of these combos. Even then these are kind of silly combos. Does SE think people are going to be using Gladiator in a damage dealing capacity for parties or end game?
