These mounted riders are considered “rarer in occurrence” than some of your average prey but should be feared for their strength and numbers. “Unlike other foes, Warbands travel over large distances and can quickly overcome the unwary adventurer. Often times, a Warband will be better dealt with by riding alongside your allies as you charge into battle” states the release.
