What is the fastest horse in Mount and Blade Warband?
I really enjoy the whole Riders of Rohan effect of leading my all-cavalry force in a thunderous charge against the scurrilous Nords. However, I don't like getting all bunched up: I want to be out in front making a huge spectacle of myself, not back in the pack. What is the absolute fastest horse in the game?
Note: I already have a heavily armored horse for fights when that's a better option than speed (I carry it around in my bag, I guess...).
Best Answer
As said already, Courser is technically the fastest, but using a Courser is very risky due to very low HP, especially if you face the nords with their throwing axes -- one hit in the head at its full speed, and you are not on horseback anymore, and your Courser is likely no more Champion (crippled). So you should probably go for increasing Riding skill if you really want to be fast. If you want more speed than the armoured horse (Charger, War Horse), you should probably try Hunter -- it's relatively fast compared to armoured horse and also relatively tough compared to Courser.

Extra horses in your inventory will offset the speed loss that comes from carrying lots of heavy goods in your inventory. However, if you aren't carrying very much in your inventory, having lots of horses could actually slow you down (since they themselves count as goods).How do I make myself faster in Mount and Blade Warband?
- Increase your Athletics or Riding skills; You can go faster in a horse with a high Riding skill, or faster on foot with a high Athletics skill. If your Athletics skill is 4 and your Riding skill is 3, you will go faster on foot than on a horse in the map.What horses increase speed Bannerlord?
Sumpter horses and mules increase your carry weight, the ones labelled as horses increase your speed, if you have more horses and other animals like cows etc than you have people you get a herd modifier which slows you down.
