Crushing sieges, breaking shield walls, and winning the melee grind comes down to one thing in Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord—having the right shock infantry. In this video (Bannerlord v1.3.12, post–War Sails DLC), I rank the Top 5 Best Shock Infantry Units based on what actually matters in real fights: stats, weapons, armor, and unit abilities. Whether you’re trying to punch through a frontline in a field battle, overwhelm defenders on a ladder, or delete elite enemy infantry in close quarters, this tier list focuses on practical performance—not theorycraft.
The lineup features the Vlandian Voulgier, Sturgian Heroic Line Breaker, Battanian Veteran Falxman, Aserai Mameluke Palace Guard, and the Nord Huscarl—each evaluated for damage output, survivability, loadout strengths, and how reliably they convert contact into kills. I also break down what makes each troop shine (and where they can fail), plus how to use them in your army with smart formations and matchups. If you’re looking for the best Bannerlord shock troops, the strongest two-handed and heavy-hitting infantry, and a clear post–War Sails ranking to build your next campaign party around, this is the list.
