This skill can be obtained from the Warrior Dragon in the Dragon's Lair mission. It can be difficult to time the Capture right, so I would first make sure you have all his other skills and then just keep pressing the Signet button until you get it. Kind of cheap, but it doesn't show when an enemy uses a Stance. And this one can be really helpful against purely melee enemies. If they're stupid and repeatedly attack, it can deal upward of 100 dmg easily. Plus it keeps you from taking damage.

Took me two tries to get it but it is fairly obvious when it happens because when you attack it says -16 (Gladiator Defense) or something like that because you just got hit by it.

I looove this skill. If you have high tactics I highly recommend this. I use other stances and shouts in cycle with this and it works wonders when soloing melee mobs.

I don't see the description saying that using a skill will end the stance. Does this mean I can use my other weapon skills in conjunction with it?

Yup. You can do anything but use another stance. Gladiator's is IMO by far the best defensive stance a warrior can have against attacks, as at 12 tactics you can have it on 1/3 of the time.

No, Power Strike does not cancel glad's defense, only skills that cancel it are other stances.

Strength Facet = Warrior dragon

Dont you use the capture signet when the dragon dies and select the skill? Or did it change and you have to capture it while they use it.

You had to capture it while they used it when Guild Wars was first released. Read the dates of the posts.
