With full hitpoints and plenty of spell slots, there's no need for a short rest or trip back to town. Given the Gladiator's high challenge rating (CR), running could be wise. But remember, out-of-range attacks roll with disadvantage. With the rapier's melee bonus, our chances of landing a hit are pretty good. The reward in EXP is also significant.
Best option: âī¸ Fight the Gladiator. Don't shy away from a challenge! It's time to show what we're made of.
