Re: Gloves of the Gladiator...
I did, in Dom 2 or so, I think, on a King of Elemental Earth. 4 Attacks sounded hardcore. That's before I found about AoE weapons.

Re: Gloves of the Gladiator...
I did equiped some Dai Oni thugs with the Gloves. These are cool artifacts : 4 attacks, man, 4 !! if you give some additionnal stuff to your SC/thug, like Horned Helmet, Stone Bird & something for reinvigoration, you're ending with a real machine gun

Re: Gloves of the Gladiator...
I've used them for fun on an early awake cyclops SC.
They are pretty cheap to make arn't they?

Re: Gloves of the Gladiator...
Any unit that will suddenly appear too close to the enemy is a good choice. Particularly if the enemy is mages. Adding another item with an attack can really boost its usefulness.
Ive used it on assassins and seducers.

Re: Gloves of the Gladiator...
AoE weapons are generally preferred, but all of the cheap AoE weapons can be negated by resistances. Gloves can come in handy here. Particularly if combined with boots of quickness. Not many thugs can withstand 8 attacks/round for very long.
Could also be useful vs. a Mechanical Man defensive line; a Bane Lord would work well here.

Re: Gloves of the Gladiator...
I thought those more on the line of the KoEE or even a Niefel Jarl, or a Dai Oni) suggested by Ich. I see those work much better on a high-Str SC/thug than an assassin or a Bane Lord
Hey, on a quickened Davana, would 2 of those make 4x2x2= 16 attacks per turn???  Can't believe it would work

Re: Gloves of the Gladiator...
I think I would give the Davana 1 Gloves of the Gladiator, plus a Dusk Dagger, plus ..... an Eye Shield!
