65' cone for 2400. Ouch. I suppose you can do the same with mSH for 1800 but not as tough as an IB lol.
We did a Choppa pump party (M4 1st tree) years ago and was a blast.

It's a fun meme, you can run many different morale comps, I have a video with shaman that is arguably stronger. with some fun interactions you can get m4 within 20 sec lolIlluminati wrote: Thu Jan 22, 2026 1:05 am 65' cone for 2400.

Why would they be nerfed?
Such warband composition can be easily countered.

The Cone was nerfed into more narrow, the damage was nerfed from instant to animation follow, and the damage was nerfed in total.Illuminati wrote: Thu Jan 22, 2026 1:05 am 65' cone for 2400. Ouch. I suppose you can do the same with mSH for 1800 but not as tough as an IB lol.

People always do that when TUP is online, if you haven't noticed.normanis wrote: Thu Jan 22, 2026 10:28 amyes and no. yes u can drain morale and cc ib silence ams. no, why ppl would log loosing side vs tup?
If you look at that WB composition, it can do only one thing Axe Slam and Earthshatter, if you drain their morale they are just bunch of SnB tanks with maxed out 2h mastery tree (yes, Axe Slam is on top of Path of Vengeance)...
It really doesn't require rocket science, to equip Crushing Blows on Marauders and/or use Black Orc Yer Nothin to drain hobbits as they push. Just lack of serious guilds with understanding of game mechanics and ability to adapt leads to situations like those.
My only complain about IBs (and tanks in general after all those reworks) - allowing super punts on SnB tanks while nerfing armor penetration around was retarded idea.
I hope you guys will run those warbands more often.Glorian wrote: Thu Jan 22, 2026 11:09 amThe Cone was nerfed into more narrow, the damage was nerfed from instant to animation follow, and the damage was nerfed in total.Illuminati wrote: Thu Jan 22, 2026 1:05 am 65' cone for 2400.
