Surprisingly enough, gladii are worse for {{DPS}} than a [[knife]] of the same quality and material, despite the game stating otherwise. Knives are cheaper and don't require Smithing research.

* '''The [[melee verb selection]] system''', introduced in 1.1. Each weapon has multiple attacks, or ''verbs'', with some better than others. The game's infobox incorrectly calculates the likelihood of each attack (it uses RimWorld 1.0 values). For example, the knife is assumed to use "Bad" attacks more often than it does in practice. With this in mind, knives have a "true" {{DPS}} of 7.23, rather than the gladius' 7.13. | * '''The [[melee verb selection]] system''', introduced in 1.1.
