play the battle of Bo Wan Po. Allow the enemy to spoil all of your ploys
(Pang Tong's ploy, Zhuge Liang's calling of the wind and Huang Gai's fire
attack). After all of your ploys fail, finish the battle of Chi Bi and play
through the rest of the Musou mode normally. The Battle of Tian Shui will
appear before the final act. When the Battle of Tian Shui begins, run
quickly to the right side of Ji Castle. Kill the Guard Captain there to open
the gate. Step inside to activate an enemy ambush. Then, run back around to
the southern gate on Ji Castle. Kill the Guard Captain there. Once again,
run inside to activate an enemy ambush. Run inside and kill Cao Ren and his
two Sub-Generals. You have to do this before Cao Ren decides to charge out
and attack Zhuge Liang. At this point, it would be a good idea to eliminate
all enemy troops that are not inside Tian Shui Castle, including all
Officers and Gate Captains. Zhuge Liang gets in trouble very easily on this
map, and the enemy morale stays high throughout. Once that is done, kill the
Guard Captain on the left side of Tian Shui Castle to open the gates. Just
like in Ji Castle, run in to activate an enemy ambush. Then, move back out
and around to the southern gate. Kill the Guard Captain there. Run inside to

appear. He mostly appears when you destroy the Wen Chou compound. Note: If
you kill Lu Bu, Yuan Shoa's morale will drop massively, allowing you easy
victory.

weapon does not appear after only Dong Zhuo is alive, move around the map
awhile. There may still be ambush troops you did not encounter.
Hint:
Lu Bu: Unlimited combo: Equip Lu Bu with the Lightning Orb. Having his level 10 weapon
makes this easier. Go to an officer and use Lu Bu's second charge attack
where he swings his halberd around. The lightning will hit the officer into
the air and you can continue hitting him. Make sure you hit him before he
lands on the ground or his body will disappear. You have to do this on an
officer that does not have a death intermission sequence or a Gate Captain.

the north wall, then the one at the south wall. Liao Hua will return with
additional troops. Destroy them, including the Sub-General in the group.

escape. This is why the two Gate Captains had to be killed; he will try to
escape to one of them if they are not sealed. Kill the northern-most Gate
Captain. Guan Yu will change direction and head for the southern-most Gate
Captain. Once both of those are shut off, go back into the castle and an

before the Supply Team reaches the castle. Zhou Yu will earn his Level 10
Weapon.
This weapon can be obtained in
the Siege of Fan Castle on the Wu side. Note: If you try to get Zhou Yu's
level 10 weapon without taking care of Wu's siege weapons, Lu Meng will come
forward and get killed by Cao Ren's all out charge. However, if you have an
already powered up Lu Meng, choose him as player two and equip him with a
Shadow Saddle, level 15 Horned Helm, Tiger Amulet, Tortoise Amulet, and
Elixir. You need two good bodyguard teams, one for each player. Make them
wait at Lu Meng's camp entrance. Play fast, as you have ten minutes to kill
the generals and Zhen Ji's entire side. While doing this, Wei must have
destroyed all your siege weapons and charged. After you clear Zhen Ji's
area, make Zhou Yu wait there until the Supply Team Captain comes up. Kill
him, and once you get the level 10 weapon message, switch to Lu Meng and go
for Cao Ren. Cao Ren is weak against mount attacks. Keep moving and bounding
him until he dies.
Instead of building up Lu Meng
to keep him alive during Fan Castle, use this trick to keep him alive
manually. First, it is obvious that you need Zhou Yu's level 9 weapon and
have him at maximum rank, but, you can can do this trick without touching Lu
Meng before (meaning having completely default stats). First, have Zhou Yu
as player one, then press Start on controller two and choose Lu Meng
for the second player. He should be equipped with any Peacock or Tortoise
items, and a Shadow Harness is recomended. At the begining of the level,
wait for Cao Ren to charge, then make Lu Meng go next to the bridge on the
northern river (by the pots and boxes). Have him wait there and switch to
Zhou Yu. Have Zhou Yu fend off troops for awhile, untill the Wei forces
start to shift northward (towards Meng). Have Meng ride down to Fan Castle's
eastern bridge. The troops should be gone from that bridge by now. With Lu
Meng safe once again, Zhou Yu should be free to kill the Supply Captain and
acquire the Ancients Sword. Now, it is time to slaughter Cao Ren.

They appear randomly.
For the Orb element to take
effect, you must have a full Musuo bar. If your character has a level 10
weapon, then a full Musuo bar is not required.
Orb powers will only work if
you have your Musou full, unless you have your fourth weapon/level 10 weapon
that has Jade attack (which will use the orb every time you do a charge
attack).
Hint:
Orb recommendations:
Shu: Lightning Orb because of
their long ranged weapon that will not steal the experience.
Wu: Fire Orb Because of their
costumes and beam that comes appears from their hand when you press Y
on some character.
Wei: Vorpal Orb because of
their short ranged weapon.
Lu Bu: Lightning or Fire Orb
because of their strong damage attack.
Dong Zhou: Any Orb because
Dong Zhou is a very slow player.
Yuan Shao: Wind Orb to gain
more experience for them and strong wind effect.
Nanman: Poison Orb when
playing Nanman campaign on Nanman side so you can bring poison from the
river to them.
Yellow Turban: Any Orb.
Hint:
Electric Orbs: Electric Orbs are one of the worst Orbs. They give a lot of
damage, but there is a 75% chance that the Orb will steal the points that
the player gives you (weapon and regular), if the last attack was a T attack
that is affected by an Orb.
Hint:
Vorpal Orb: Play the Battle Of Cheng Du, Battle Of Xu Chang, and Battle Of
Jian Ye levels as any force under the hard difficulty setting with Xu Zhu

such as location where there are no enemies.
Hint:
Eliminate Zhang Jiao level: To get a new level in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, play Musou
Mode with Shu. Be any character, and do the Yellow Turban Rebellion first.
Kill Zhang Jiao and make that the only general you defeat. After you finish
the level, it will say Shu Tales. It is called Eliminate Zhang Jiao.
Alternately, do the first level

Xian may approach you instead. Also kill him. Defeat Liu Han. Also, defeat
the guard captain that is near him. You should get a message that Liu Zhang
is considering surrender. Go ahead and Kill Liu Xun. Approaching him will
trigger enemy reinforcements. Do not defeat Pang De or Ma Chao, depending if
you' ae playing Musou or Free mode. If they challenge you to a duel, ignore
them. Go back and kill Yang Huai, Geo Pei, and Ma Dai. When everyone is
defeated, go ahead and kill Pang De/Ma Chao. You will get a message stating
that Liu Zhang will surrender.
Hint:
Battle Of Cheng Du level: Getting Ma Chao: Play the level as the Shu forces in Musou mode. Fight some
enemies and wait for Zhuge Liang to say that they can lure Jiang Wei and

will say "Kill all the generals under Jiang Wei so he will be
isolated.". Kill the two generals under Jiang Wei. Someone on Jiang
Wei's side will say "Jiang Wei, you traitor! The enemy is not attacking
you!" Jiang Wei will argue and say that he is not on the Shu side and
that it is an enemy ploy. Find and kill Jiang Wei. Then, go after the main
person in the castle on the left. Defeat more enemies and get closer to him.

to defense. Destroy the lone pot near the buildings at the left entrance (of
the middle part, not the castle) to get +10 Musou. You should also get at
least 3,500 weapon experience, which levels you up very fast. As you do this
more often, you should be able to complete the level within eight to twelve
minutes, depending on who you play as.
Hint:

everyone. Once he retreats, go to Wan Castle. At some point, he will appear

side of the Shu fort. Look for single crates. The rest of the items appear
with a supply team (group of wooden oxen on wheels that start around Ma
Chao's original position heading down the south path towards the bottom left
gate). Defeat Jiang Wei and they should appear, but you have to be fast.
Note: Have Luck equipped. You should have Seven Star Sash at least level 14
and Hex Mark. You do not have to be on horseback to activate Luck.

side, Sun Jian will struggle and will soon only have one or no guards. After
Xu Zhu appears, he will bring Cao Cao srtonghold. It will be non-stop;
advance slowly and protect Sun Jian while doing so. You will get about 800
to 1000 kills. If you do this and kill lots of Generals, 12,000 points will
be given to you after the battle. This also works with Cheng Du on Wu or Wei
side, where the non-stop stronghold is in Luo Castle (top where Ma Su is
located), and in Jian Ye (bottom of map where Sun Jian is found).
Hint:
Battle Of Ye Ling level: Easy completion: Play as Xiao Qiao and equip the Red Hair Harness. When you enter
the Stone Sentinel Maze, after the figures start to move up and down you can
ride over them. When one starts to rise, move directly towards it. When it

possible to enter the Bai Di Castle from the maze. If this does not work,
try to ride up different parts, such as the sides.

His life will drop quickly. Note: Make sure Gan Ning is strong. Do the same
to defeat Gan Ning in a duel.
Use a character whose first
charge is shooting out elemental orbs (for example, Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wei,
Pang Tong, Cao Cao, Sima Yi, Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, Lu Meng, and Da Qiao). Then,
get their fourth weapons and equip a Blast Orb (level 2 or above
recommended). When you get in a duel with Lu Bu, keep tapping Y and
his life will slowly drain to nothing. Note: this method will let you win
any duel.

character at maximum rank; a level 9 weapon; the following equipment at
these levels: Peacock Urn, Tiger Amulet, Tortoise Amulet, Dragon Amulet
(optional), and Speed Scroll (optional); and level 20 bodyguards with pikes,

him in the back (or in any unguarded spot), then unleash an all-out attack
on him.

or King Mulu to get the gate to open. Go in the castle. Meng Huo will appear
immediately and you can kill him there. Note: When fighting Meng Huo,
massive reinforcements will arrive and Gate Captains will appear every ten
minutes. Lu Xun or Zhuge Liang will be struggling in battle. Be careful,
because Zhu Rong will also march to kill your main commander. If you go into
the castle, a 1000 kill possibility can happen.

with Sun Ce. Once all three are following you, go south. However, go over to
the east side of the map, through the gate. When Dong Zhuo's troops arrive,
they will hunt for you. If you try to meet them down the center, you will
lose, as you will be overwhelmed by their sheer numbers. You might survive,
but odds are that you will be defeated. Going to either side causes them to
split up, making it easier for you to survive. You will not have to deal
with five to officers, their sub-officers (if any), and their troops. A
fully decked general is recommended. Equipment should include: Red Hare
Saddle (to move quickly), Charge Bracer, Peacock Urn, Tiger Amulet, and

yourself). Have player two collect both Qiaos, and then have player one
attack some of Niou Fu's troops so that they will stop following player two.
Let player one be found before Dong Zhuo's army splits, then seal a gate in
a far-off corner with player two. Wait there and fight the army using player
one. The Qiaos will be safe because everyone will be following player one.
Hint:
Xia Kou level: Make Gan Ning weak: Go to Xia Kou and wait until Zhou Yu talks about the gunpowder on
Huang Zu's northern ship. Break the burning pot so that his ship will be on
fire. Leave the ship. Gan Ning and Su Fei will get on the burning ship. The
ship will move and hit the other ship, causing a fire. Gan Ning and Su Fei
will appear. Gan Ning should be very weak by now.
Hint:
Xu Chang level for Wu side: Play in Musou mode under the Wu side. You may play as any
character. Play all levels in any way desired. When you get to Act 3, play
The Battle of Chi Bi level. You must make sure Zhuge Liang wind prayer, Pang
Tong ploy, and Huang Gai's setting the ship on fire are all succesful. If
done correctly, the final level of the final act will be Xu Chang.
Hint:
Yellow Turban Fortress level: Orb: Play the Yellow Turban Fortress level on the Han side. Once you
start, there will be two forts (left and right). Go to the left fort and
defeat the officer outside the gate to get the gate open. Once inside, go to
the bottom left corner. A crate should be there, near a fence. Open it, and
an item that should be an Orb will appear. To help you get these Orbs
easier, equip the Seven Star Luck.
Hint:
Yellow Turban Menace level: Hidden items: There is a Life Up on the top left squared area near Zhang Liang
with flame geysers. The pot stands by itself. There is a Musou Up in the top
right squared area the opposite of where the life up is located. The pot
stands alone.
Hint:
Yellow Turban Menace level: Persistent opponents: You will find Huang Gai and Guan Hai fighting outside of a gate
on the lower middle portion of the map. These two characters will always be
fighting when you go to them. If you notice, Huang Gai is Guan Hai with the
G and the H switched. The G at the end of Huang is also removed.
Hint:
Yellow Turban Rebellion level: Hidden items: There is a Life Up near Zhang Jiao on his right. The pot near the
brown box. Another pot has 200 HP+. A Musou Up is in one of the three pots
near Zhang Liang's location, when coming in straight from below.
To get +10 Musou, go to the far
right-hand side of the map at the beginning of the level where Liu Bei is
fighting with He Yi. Go towards the circular area. You will see two or three
pots lined up. Break them and get the +10 Musou.
To get +10 Life, go to the fort
on the map with the phantom army. Go into the bottom corner along the side
(to the right side of your character, and left side of the map). Break the
single pot. You will get a +10 Life.
Hint:
Yellow Turban Rebellion level: Stop the fire cannons and wind: At one time during this battle, Zhang Jiao will grant Zhang Bao
powers. After this you must kill Zhang Bao, and at that time the fire
cannons will stop, as well as the wind in the fort where Zhang Bao is
located.
Hint:
Yellow Turban Rebellion level: Dong Zhou appears in Dynasty Warriors 3
costume: Note: In order to do this, you must have the Zhang Jiao team.
Play the Yellow Turban Rebellion level on the Yellow Turban side as Dong
Zhou. Kill all of the generals until Dong Zhou appears. Get close to him,
and you will notice that he is wearing his costume from Dynasty Warriors
3.
Hint:
Musou modes: In order to unlock the Naman Musou mode, you must unlock the
character Meng Huo. To do so, during a Musou mode with either the Shu or Wu
Kingdom, defeat Meng Huo in a duel when he challenges you. After that Musou
mode, you will unlock him. After have completed the Shu, Wei, Wu, Lu Bu,
Yuan Shao and Naman Musou modes, the Yellow Turban Musou mode will be
unlocked. To unlock the Yuan Shao and Lu Bu Musou mode, complete the Shu, Wu
and Wei Musou mode once.
Hint:
Extra spin attack: When an officer's Musou bar is full, press Y + B.
He will do six spins instead of three.
Hint:
Defeating officers: Grow your Musou, then use your jumping charge attack. When you
land, use your musou immediatly to do double damage on any opponent. If you
have a high level character, this will work well on any officer. You can
usually kill them in two or three hits.
Hint:
Easy stats and experience: If you have a strong character capable of completing levels with
a difficulty rating of about six or more and you need upgrading, go to the
Mt. Ding Jun level. Fight for the Shu side. Once in the level, fight your
way towards Xiahou Yuan and Zhang He. If you defeat Xiahou Yuan, he will
give you +4 attack and 1228 weapon experience points. Zhang He will give you
+4 defense and a little less experience points. If your character is not
strong enough to battle at Mt.Ding Jun, select the Battle of Guan Du level
and fight for Wei. There are many officers and Zhang He, Liu Bei, and Zhang
Fei all drop +2 power-ups.
Go to the Unification Of Jiang
Dong level in the Wu Territory under the medium difficulty setting. All
generals and their officers give a minimum of +2 to attack/defence, and the
rest give +4. The difficulty for the level is only rated for 4 on medium
difficulty. Weapon experience is not very high, however, and you will only
acquire about 3000 weapon experience points (more if you juggle the Named
Ones).
The Battle of Jian Ye is the
best level for weapon experience, and there are some good power-ups there as
well. The four fake Sun Jians will all give over 1,000 experience each, as
well as the real one. Then, Taishi Ci, Zhou Tai, Sun Ce, Sun Quan, and Sun
Shang Xiang will give you a lot more.
Most of the power-ups dropped
by Generals in the game are Attack ups. Your attack will reach maximum
before your defense does. To raise your defense faster, play the Campaign
Against Sun Jian level as any force. Many Generals there will give you
Defense ups.
Go to the Hu Lao Gate under the
hard difficulty setting and kill all generals. You will get over 5,000
experience points.
Go to the Battle Of Hu Lao Gate
level as any character (at least Class 10 and weapon level 5). Destroy all
generals except Lu Bu (just evade him) and run up sides of gate. Collect the
Musou +10 and the Health +10. Many generals in Hu Lao gate have at least +2
items. Note: Do not knock Lu Bu off his horse because it will be easier for
him to attack you; just run and stay away from his slash. He cannot go up
the stairs of Hu Lao Gate on his horse.
Hint:
Easy weapon experience: Play the Jian Ye level on the Nanman side under the easy
difficulty setting. This requires a level 15 Tiger Amulet and a Red Hare
Saddle. Play normally, killing the four fake Sun Jians, then kill
sub-generals in the following order: Taichi Ci, Cheng Pu, Zhou Tai, Sun
Jian, Sun Ce, Sun Quan, and Sun Shang Xiang. Any unpowered-up character will
instantly have there level 5 weapon and some ranks up. Do this four times
and you will have the level 9 weapon and rank 1 or 3 at least.
First, get Guan Yu's Escape for
Cao Cao's forces (Wei). Access this by selecting the Yellow Turban Rebellion
first in Act 1. Then in Act 2, clear both stages. After the Battle of Guan
Du in Act 3, it will be Wei Tales, Guan Yu's Escape. Now that you have Guan
Yu's Excape, set it to the easy difficulty setting. Equip a saddle of any
kind, if available, and sprint up to Guan Yu. Try and isolate and defeat
him. He will give you 848 weapons points under the easy difficulty setting
after he is defeated. If you hit him with a Charge attack, you will receive
32 weapons points under the easy difficulty setting. Combo him five times at
least, and you will unlock the level 2 weapon for any character in under
five minutes. Be careful, as Guan Yu has three times his normal stats on
this level.
Play the Yellow Turban
Rebellion on Zhang Jiao's side. Defeat every officer and sub officer. By
doing this under the easy difficulty setting, you will leave the stage with
over 12,000 weapon experience.
Play the Battle Of Jian Ye
level as the Shu side in free mode. Choose the character for which you want
to maximize his or her power. It is best to have at least the level 7
weapon. Quickly, eliminate Sun Jian at the bottom of the map. If you want to
boost your weapon experience first, kill one illusion of Sun Jian. After you
kill the real Sun Jian with the static around his body, you will get about
2,028 weapon experience and an +8 attack in normal mode or 1,016 weapon
experience and a +4 in easy mode. Sun Ce will now take command. Kill him to
get another 2,000 weapon experience and +8 attack. If your health is low,
kill SunSan Xiang or one of the elite guards to get an All Recover boost.
Sun Quan will now take command. Kill him to get 2,000 weapon experience and
+8 defense. Make sure your health is towards full before facing Sun San
Xiang; she will have Zhou Tai nearby and lots of soldiers. Taici Ci will
also pursue you when facing Sun Quan. If "The main camp is under
attack" message appears, forget the general-killing spree. Instead,
help Liu Bei get secured. There are lots of 10 second Musous and Life
Recovers in boxes near Liu Bei -- do not worry about your vitality bar. If
you do not kill the soldiers fast enough, then Sun San Xiang will appear and
hunt you down. Kill her, but there will be no weapon experience or status
items. Also, before facing Sun Jian, you need to kill Huang Gai to open the
gate. To finish the stage quickly, equip Red-Hare, or if you do not have any
saddles, knock a general of his or hers. Note: Under the hard difficulty
setting, status items will still be the same, but weapon experience will be
doubled to 4,000 points.
Play the Battle Of Jian Ye
level under the hard difficulty setting. If you think that your character
will die if you play that level on that difficulty, then get someone to be a
character who is already powered up (level 10 weapon recommended) and have
that person help you. Kill all of the Generals in the level, and if needed
have the powerful character weaken the General, then kill the General
yourself. Sun Jian alone gives over 2,000 weapon experience points.
Play the Yellow Turban
Rebellion level under the hard difficulty setting. Defeat all enemy
sub-officers and officers, but do not defeat any Gate Captians or Zhang Jaio
will retreat to prevent this. Do not defeat Zhang Liang; they will have more
morale, and it is impossible for allies to get to Zhang Liang. You can now
defeat all Gate Captains. The best order is: He Yi, Yan Zhang, Gao Shing,
Deng Mao, Cheng Yuanzhi, Pei Yuan Shou, Guan Hai, Zhang Man Chang, Zhang
Bao, Zhou Cang, Han Xian, Bo Zhang, Zhang Liang (optional), Lui Pi, Huang
Shao, and Zhang Jiao. If you are on the Wei side, you can defeat Deng Mao,
Gao Sheng, Cheng Yuanzhi, He Yi, Yan Zheng, etc. Also, you should get Life
+10 by killing Lui Pi and going straight up. There should be two pots and
one box. Break the pot on the very right. If you are running low on health,
break the middle pot and Musou +10 by going to Zhang Liang after killing Han
Xian. Charge to Zhang Liang and once you cannot go any further, take a
right. There should be three pots. Break the one that kind of pops out. If
you are once again running low on health, break the right pot by the end.
You should have a good 3,500 experience points, but this is mainly for
weaker characters. If you have about a level 7 weapon, just go to the Battle
Of Jain Yi level and defeat every officer and sub-officer. Defeat all Sun
Jian's images to get a good 10,000 experience points.
Use the following strategy to
increase a character's weapon to level 9 within an hour and a half. Do the
following levels in order under the hard difficulty setting: Nanman campaign
three times, killing every officer and sub-officer; Campaign Against Sun
Jian Lu Bu's forces under the normal difficulty setting, killing all
sub-officers and officers; and Campaign Against Sun Jian Lu Bu's forces
under the hard difficulty setting. You should now have a level 9 weapon.
Play the Jie Ting leve as ether
Cao Cao's Forces (easier) or Liu Bei's Forces. You will get about 1024
experience for defeating a famous officer and about 500 experience for a
lower officer. You will also get an extra 40 experience for Charge hits or
other combos ending in a charge attack on famous officers. Remember that
your weapons change at level 3 and level 7. It would help to have a level 15
Tiger Amulet, a level 20 Tortoise Amulet, and a level 15 Peacock Urn. Even
if you get knocked around, you will lose less damage if you did this stage
without a Tortoise Amulet at all. You could probably do this with a level 2
and higher weapon.
Get the desired character with
the weapon to level up to the Hu Lao Gate level(on Dong Zhuo's side). Clear
the stage of every officer. When you get to Yuan Shao, do not use regular
attacks on him. Instead, get a horse and keep riding by, continuously
hitting him with the Y move. Every time you hit him, you should get
32 weapons experience under the normal difficulty setting.
First, complete the Wei Dynasty
campaign or at least make it to the The Siege Of Fan Castle level. Play this
level in free mode under the easy difficulty setting. Fight for the Wei
Forces as any character you wish to gain weapon experience for. Defeat every
officer on the map. Try starting with Zhou Tai and his officer, Xu Sheng.
Then head up towards Lu Xun and his officer, Ding Feng. After that, go
towards Sun Zhang Xiang and her officer, Ling Tong. After that, go for
Taishi Ci and his officer, Zhu Ran. By this time, either both Lu Meng and
Sun Quan, or just Lu Meng are at the west gate. Move to Lu Meng and his
officer Jiang Qin. Now all that remains in your way is Sun Quan and his
officer, Cheng Pu. Once the mission is done, you should have about 8,000
weapon experience. Be careful, as this level is somewhat difficult. Make
sure that you have at least a level 12 character.
Hint:
Easy level 10 weapons: Play in two player mode. Use a low trained character who has a
ninth weapon for player one and another trained character with at least a
ninth weapon for player two. If you were supposed to defeat an enemy
general, let player two weaken him. Then let player one defeat the enemy
general.
Hint:
Fourth weapons: If your trying to get a fourth weapon and it is not working, make
sure your weapon is at level 9. If it still does not work, then try it in
Musou mode.
I you get three stats for any
character completely maxed out, he or she will gain their fourth weapon.
Obviously, you must accomplish this with your third weapon already gained.
Hint:
Easy weapon levels: For easy second weapons or level 4 weapons, play The Yellow
Turban Menace a few times. If you want to get your rank faster, also keep
playing the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Hint:
Weapons: For a second weapon, get your weapon to level 4. For a third
weapon, get your weapon to level 7.
Hint:
Locating valuable items: If you are having trouble locating valuable items when they
appear, pause game play, select "History", and scroll to the
"A valuable item has been discovered" notice. It will show you the
exact location of the item when it appears.
Hint:
Easy duels: Use Huang's Bow at level 10 or more. When a duel begins, take out
your bow and shoot. The officer will fly back and come towards you. This
gives you enough time to use your bow. To do this easier, shoot the bow,
release the button, hold it again, and shoot. Repeat this until he or she is
dead. Note: This will not work for all generals, especially Lu Bu.
While in Musou mode during a
duel, if you are losing, run up as close to the wall as possible. Press R
to aim with a bow and arrow. The general you are dueling will not attack,
and you can survive to fight him on the battlefield.
When you are losing a duel, go
to the side of the dueling fences and hold R to switch to bow mode.
While in bow mode, look outside the fence. Note: You must to be touching the
fence and be looking outside for this to work.
Freeman.
Hint:
Easy kills: Unlock Ma Chao and the Shadow Rider saddle (to avoid getting
knocked off). Then, ride into a crowd of enemies and use your charge attack.
It will send a shockwave into the enemies, taking anywhere to half or a
little less than half of their health. Repeat this a few times and you will
have killed any enemies around you. Using this, it is possible to get 1000
or more kills easily in a stage.
When fighting with a lot of
enemies around you, sometimes the game slows down. If you enter the power
struggle thing (where you attack repeatedly) while the game is slowing down,
you will win easier because everything else is slow while you are at normal
speed.
Use the following trick for an
instant death of any enemy that is not an officer. Equip the Vorpal Orb at a
high level so you do not really need a Tiger Amulet.
Hint:
Regain health: When you are low on health after an officer battle, you can get
health easily by defeating elite guards, guard captains, and gate captains.
Note: The Yellow Turbans do not have elite guards, but some of the captains
have health.
Hint:
Sniper bow: When aiming at someone far away, hold R for a few seconds
without touching anything else. You will zoom in on the target, making it
easier to select who you want to hit with an arrow.
Hint:
Flaming geysers: The geysers will stop burning or shooting up in the air just
before they explode.
Hint:
Dim Sums and Musou Wines: This can only be done in Musou mode. Choose the Wu Kingdom and
play until you reach "The Little Conqueror" tale. Choose Campaign
for Wu Territory first and take the supply depot. Then, choose Unification
of Jiang Dong. The Dim Sum is located on the top fort, to the left of the
bottom entrance. The next one is located inside the bottom fort, to the left
of the center building. The two Musou Wines are located inside the Elft
fort, in the smaller center fort, at the bottom left corner, next to a guard
watch tower. The other one is on the top fort, to the right of the bottom
entrance.
Hint:
Defense from Gate Captains: Go to a difficult level and let your Gate Captain get killed. A
Defense +1 will appear.
Hint:
Flip up after being knocked down or off a horse: After being knocked down or off a horse, quickly press L
to flip up and get ready to attack or guard. This also works well when
fighting in duels.
Hint:
Attack Range: The Attack Range determines how long the sword is
("Reach", according to Dynasty Warriors 3). The Wind Scroll
item increases it. The characters with the most Attack Range are Lu Bu and
Cao Cao. The ones with the least is Sun Ce and Nu Wa (edit female character
with Raeper).
Hint:
Luck: Luck gives you a chance to get better recovery items, Orbs, and
special items. The items that increase luck are Seven Star Sash and the Hex
Hare Saddle. For example, in Battle Of Jian Ye level, the elite guard next
to Huang Gai gives you Life Recovery +100, but if you a Hex Hare equipped it
should give All Recovery Full.
Hint:
Raising morale: To raise your army's morale, you must defeat a group of 50
soldiers. Every 50 soldiers defeated, one of your generals will make a
comment such as "I bow to your skills", "We will all follow
your example", etc. This will raise your army's morale. Defeating 1000
soldiers will raise every general to eight stars.
Hint:
Horse ability: Before you start a battle, equip any harness. During the, battle
you will get the ability in any horse. For example, equip the Shadow Rider
Saddle which prevents you from being knocked off when on a horse. Then, try
to sit on other General' horse you will also get that effect.
Hint:
New sides: In order to get new sides on levels (Shu on Cheng Du, Wu on Jian
Ye, Wu on Battle of Fan Castle, Wei side in Tian Shui gate), you must
activate some tales (Imperial Seal, Eliminate Zhang Jiao, etc.) depending on
which character you use. For example, getting Jian Ye for Wu is very
difficult, as you have to activate tales and finish levels in under the hard
difficulty setting.
Hint:
New tales: Do the following to unlock new "tales" or acts.
To unlock Tong Gate, play on
the Shu side. Play the last level in every act until it appears.
To unlock Tian Shui, play the
last level for every act with Shu until it appears; ; even after Tong Gate
tale, continue on.
To unlock Imperial Seal, play
with Wu. Play all three levels in the Yellow Turban act, then play Hu Lao
Gate only and kill Lu Bu. It is your choice to kill Dong Zhuo or not.
To unlock the Battle Of Ru
Nan (not the race), play with Shu finishing Yellow Turban Rebellion first,
then Hu Lao Gate, but do not kill Lu Bu. Also, killing Dong Zhuo is
required.
To unlock the Wei Tales-
Battle Of Ji Province, in the Wei Musou Mode with any Wei general, when
you get to Act II go to Hu Lao Gate first. Defeat Lu Bu. You may kill Dong
Zhuo if you wish. Then, after Act III you will go to Wei Tales the Battle
of Ji Province.
To unlock the Wu Tales -
Battle of Mai Castle, when playing the Battle Of Chi Bi in the Wu Musou
mode with any Wu general, make sure all the ploys work. After Act V, you
will go to the Battle of Mai Castle.
Instead of playing Si Shui
gate in Musou mode Shu Act 2, play Hu Lao gate and the two main officers
Hua Shung and Li Jue will appear. Win the level and you may kill Dong Zhou
or let him escape. Either way, you will unlock a Shu Tales. You will get
more experience this way
AzNDuDe.
Complete the levels in order
for the Wu Musou mode. When you get to Hu Lao Gate, do not accept Lu Bu's
challenge. Do not kill Lu Bu. Kill Dong Zhuo, then in the next Act just
play the last level. You should unlock Wu Tales: The Unification Of Jing.
Kill all Generals,
Sub-Generals, Soldiers and Gate Captains and leave Zhang Jiao the only
enemy on the map. He will retreat and the next battle will be Eliminate
Zhang Jiao.
Start a Musou with any of the
main forces (Wu, Shu, or Wei) and kill every general including all four of
Zhang Jiao's officers. After a few minutes Zhang Jiao will retreat and the
next Act will be a Tales level, Eliminate Zhang Jiao.
Hint:

Hint:
Poem meanings: After you have finished Musou mode with any force, you will
receive a little poem which reflects your score during Musou mode. Each
quote is related to how you performed. At the end of the poem, there is a
result. You will get three results.
[Strength of fire] or
[Strength of the inferno]
[Mind of lightning] or [Mind of the heavens]
[Speed of the wind] or [Speed of the tempest]
After the results have shown,
there is a conclusion which includes either "Thus, a miracle was
born", "Thus, conquest was achieved", "Thus, order was
restored" or "Thus, the world was changed".
Strength reflects your number
of kills either by:
Fire (worst): Less than 200 kills on average
Inferno (best): More than 200 kills on average
Mind refers to the number of
points you got either by:
Lightning (worst): Less than 4000 points on average
Heavens (best): More than 4000 points on average
Speed reflects the time it
took you to complete a stage either by:
Wind (worst): More than 20 minutes on average
Tempest (best): Less than 20 minutes on average
For example, if you got
Strength of the inferno, Mind of lightning, and Speed of the tempest, that
counts as two feats and the conclusion will be "Thus, conquest was
achieved". This poem will help you get those endings.

Hint:
Items dropped by Generals: If the General's strategy was tactical or balanced, it should
give you defense. If the General's strategy was offensive or defensive, then
it will give you attack. If the General's strategy was normal, it will most
likely give you attack, but may also give you defense. There are some
exceptions to the items at times.
Hint:
Quick Act completion: In Musou Mode, you do not have to play all three stages in an
Act. You just have to win the last one to finish that Act.
Hint:
Horse abilities: Each special horse has an ability.
Red Hare Saddle: Fastest
horse.
Hex Mark Saddle: Raises your luck.
Shadow Rider Saddle: You cannot get knocked off when on horse or any
other.
Storm Saddle: Raises your horse attack.
Elephant Saddle: Runs over objects such as towers, crates, and bottles.
Hint:
Dragon class Bodyguards: You must have your Bodyguards set on bow from the start until
they reach level 10. At level 10, switch them to spear until they get to
level 13. When the guards are on level 13, set them to pike all the way
through. Note: At about level 17, your guards will change to Phoenix, but
when they get to level 20 they will be Dragon class, which gives them the
Blast Orb elemental attack.
Hint:
Recommended characters: Lu Bu is of course the strongest character, but others can also
be good. Ma Chao has a good mounted attack. Equip him with Herbal Remedy and
Horned Helmet and he will be good. Storm Saddle is also recommended for
higher attack. Also, if on foot, equip him with an Electric Orb, and do his
final charge attack. He will hit everyone around him and shock them, doing
massive damage. Zhou Tai also is strong with quick attacks, a strong final
charge attack, and a very powerful Musou attack.
Please
select the first letter of the game's title below. If the word
"The" appears at the start of a title, ignore it and search for
the second word in the title:
