As in the WO character guide thread, feel free to post a mini-FAQ on your favorite fighter.

Cao Ren

Original Affiliation: Wei
New Affiliation: Wei
Current Situation: Bumming around with Cao Pi, Zhen Ji, and Pang Tong until he joins you
Unlocked By: Finish Wei Story 5.
Type: Technique
Weapons: Buckler blade

Move List

First charge attack (C1) - Stomp. Non-elemental.
Second charge attack (C2) - Uppercut with the buckler blade. Non-elemental.
Third charge attack (C3) - The classic Mega Buster. Cao Ren fires shockwaves out of his shield. This attack pierces through enemies and stuns. The final blast is a three-way shot that activates weapon elements.
Fourth charge attack (C4) - Cao Ren threatens to hug the enemies and they all fall down.
Fifth charge attack (C5) - Ground pound launcher.
Sixth charge attack (C6) - Cao Ren charges with his buckler held out in front.

New Moves

C2-ex - Cao Ren dashes and grabs at an enemy. If he connects, he blows them away with a huge 360-degree shockwave. The initial buckler back swing, grab, and shockwave activate weapon elements.
C3-ex - A six-round barrage of energy blasts - five 3-way shots plus a 5-way ender. All shots activate weapon elements.
R1 counter - Cao Ren dashes forward, knocking enemies away with a wide range slash.

Battle Opinion - Cao Ren is strong as a new character and pretty much broken when developed. His C3 damage was greatly improved, allowing him to rely on distance fighting once again. C3-ex obliterates most of the screen. C2-ex was also beefed up, and it even self-replenishes. With Absorb and Range, the swing immediately before the grab will soak back a boatload of musou if used within crowds. (Possibly more musou than the C2-ex consumed.) Add Conserve and the musou refill enchant, and Cao Ren can pretty much spam his -ex charges at will.

Recommended Weapon Setup

Bolt / Flash / Slay / Absorb / Air / Range / Agility / Might

Enchantments - Musou Refill, Nanman Armor (prevents arrow flinching), Charge Bracers (prevents charge attacks from being interrupted)
