The Spearman's increased attack-range of 2 tiles can be used to strike 'diagonally' or while safely behind high-Armor allies.He is a versatile character, so you can invest on either of his basic stats (i.e. Ludin starts with 2 Exertion, so he can greatly benefit from high morale.If you decide to fight the dredge at Lundar and lend support to Dagr, Ludin will accompany him but won't make it back alive in Chapter 10.Ludin will be killed in Ridgehorn if he's allowed to ride into battle alone during Chapter 3.It is possible to cause Ludin's removal from the Roster (but not his death) by striking or mistreating him while playing as Hakon during Chapter 3.Saga 2: If he survived the first game, Ludin starts with the Skogr caravan at Chapter 8.Saga 1: Ludin is a member of the Varl caravan at Chapter 1 and becomes available to the player in Chapter 3 and, potentially, at game's final battle.Rank 3: +30% critical chance per adjacent allyĮach kill the Spearman makes encourages allies to fight harder, granting 1 Willpower to the Spearman and any adjacent allies. Rank 2: +20% critical chance per adjacent ally Rank 1: +10% critical chance per adjacent ally Unlike Impale, Pig Sticker has the same range as the Slaughterer's regular attacks, so the Slaughterer has more opportunity to benefit from adjacency bonuses.

This chance increases for each ally adjacent to the slaughterers target. The Slaughterer comes in low and attempts to skewer his target, attacking with a 20% chance to deal a critical strike, double damage attack.

Ludin gains Pig Sticker ability when promoted to Rank 6.

Bleeding damage is not received for the tiles knocked-back by Impale's 'kick'. Notes: Knock-back by Impale will not push the target through other units, unlike Battering Ram or Mule Kick. This can be especially deadly if bleeding characters are moved against their will, such as Dredge slingers using the Back Off ability. Impaled characters will bleed for one round, taking 1 Strength damage for each tile of movement. The Spearmaster skewers an adjacent enemy unit doing normal Strength damage (with 100% chance to hit) before knocking it back with a kick to release his spear. Having survived many recent challenges, including the Battle of Boersgard, Ludin's thoughts on leadership are in disarray. He currently finds himself, somewhat against his will, on a visit to the Varl capital in what his father hopes becomes a new era of rule by lineage. However, not many will claim that he isn't smart, a well-trained fighter or lacking courage. He is not well-liked amongst either peers or rivals, mostly due to his high-born attitude.

The next in line to become king of most of the continent. He is the son of King Meinolf, and the heir to the throne. Ludin is a Hero character encountered in the first and second part of The Banner Saga.
