Like most Bandit cards, Bandit Spearmen rely heavily on Life Stealer to sustain themselves throughout a fight. By focusing their attacks on medium creatures, and utilizing the damage bonus provided by Blessed Partisans / Infused Partisans, Bandit Spearmen can double their attack power from 900 to 1800, which is an incredible level of damage that can nearly beat out a 
Frenzied 
Nightcrawler.
Campaign PvE
Blessed Partisans / Infused Partisans make Bandit Spearmen extremely effective in most missions, due to the damage bonus at U-3 allowing them to double their damage. When combined with 
Unholy Power, this unit can dish out 250% its normal damage output.
Random PvE
Bandit Spearmen can be used to reinforce a push for the tier three and four camps, but should be recycled afterwards.Card Upgrades & Drop Locations

Basic Info[]
Bandit Spearmen are tier two units of the Wasteland Bandits. Their powerful attack, immunity to knockback and slowing effect make these warriors optimal for taking down extra-large units.
Abilities[]
Passive: Cannot be knocked back. Passive: Melee strikes force units to move at walk speed for 10 seconds.Tips & Strategies[]
Bandit Spearmen are designed for taking on extra large units, but do not think that is the only thing they excel at killing! They are quite powerful as they cannot be knocked away and slow your units down when they attack, preventing a retreat. Taking them out at a distance is preferable to engaging in melee whenever possible.
Trivia[]
- Bandit Spearmen are Reskins of the Spearmen.
- The Bandit Spearmen are based on the Bandit Spearmen.
