Bandit of the Snowy Peaks is an Enemy in Crimson Desert. These bandits threaten Pailune, using mountain trails and forests as hideouts to ambush the unwary. Pailune's brigands were already infamous for their cruelty, but with the Black Bears and Jackals plunging Pailune into chaos, they have grown even bolder in their crimes.
The collapse of order in Pailune following the assassination of Jian by the Black Bears created the perfect conditions for bandits to thrive. With the Greymanes fractured and the populace living under tyranny, these opportunistic criminals exploit the power vacuum by raiding travelers and pillaging settlements. Under the rule of the Black Bears and the Jackals, many citizens have been shoved into cages and sold as slaves, and the bandits often participate in or profit from this slave trade.

Bandits of the Snowy Peaks are found throughout the mountain trails, forests, and ruins of Pailune. They set up hideouts in locations such as the Frostveiled Castle Ruins near Silver Wolf Mountain in northern Pailune. These bandits use the harsh terrain and heavy snowfall as cover, ambushing travelers along mountain passes and forest paths.
Players may also encounter bandits at blockaded locations throughout Pailune. Liberation quests in this region often involve clearing bandit camps, freeing prisoners from cages, and disrupting bandit convoys on the roads.
With 70 HP, Bandits of the Snowy Peaks are moderately tough. They go down relatively quickly individually, but their numbers can overwhelm a lower-level character.
These bandits favor ambush tactics. Stay alert when traveling through Pailune's mountain trails and forest paths, especially in areas with narrow visibility.
The bandits wear lighter armor (cloth and leather) compared to heavily armored factions like the Righteous Inquisitors. This means they are more vulnerable to standard attacks and can be staggered more easily.
Use wide-arc attacks to handle groups. When surrounded, the shield charge can send multiple bandits flying, giving you breathing room.
If you encounter bandits at a fortified location like the Frostveiled Castle Ruins, clear the surface enemies systematically before entering any underground areas, where enclosed spaces make combat more dangerous.
Pailune is the frozen northern region of Pywel, characterized by heavy snowfall, blizzards, and treacherous mountain passes. Three major factions compete for control of the region: the Greymanes (led by Kliff), the Black Bears (led by Myurdin), and the Lonely Jackals (led by Ludvig). The Bandits of the Snowy Peaks operate independently from these major factions but have grown bolder due to the chaos created by their conflict.
The Blue Fangs (also known as the Beighen Militia) represent the local resistance against the Black Bears' and Jackals' brutal rule. Players who side with the Greymanes will frequently encounter Bandits of the Snowy Peaks while liberating locations and escorting refugees across the region.
