Most of my favourite characters are there and i dont really like using slow attackers it drives me mad when they are too slow to get an attack in. The r1 moves use less musou which is good because i hate waiting ages for it to re-fill

KOEI Warriors Unifier Posts: 1,757 Group: Members Member #7,496 Joined: May 22, 2007	SPEED I have favorites in each category, but this one is the most fun for me to play. Extended Combos Double Jumping Free Specials (for some) And Xiahou Dun They each have their advantages and disadvantages, but I enjoy playing speed characters more.

The illest shorty Posts: 589 Group: Members Member #10,409 Joined: October 17, 2007	I have favorite characters in all three groups, but I'll go with technique as my overall choice. Countering comes in handy on high difficulty. It might not do much damage to the enemies, but it tends to blow them and/or you out of the way. Tech characters can land critical hits, and the frequency of criticals increases drastically with high Air, Multi, and any charge that knocks enemies off the ground.

Has anyone ever combine Xiahou Dun's R1 attacks at the same time? I thought that was a pretty cool combo when I did it lol.

Officer Posts: 66 Group: Members Member #9,706 Joined: September 16, 2007	Speed, then Tech and least is Power. I don't like the advantage of continuing attacking whille beeing hit. But what I hated most in the game was the fact of some character being in a class where they're least expected. Wei Yan, Taishi Ci, Sun Jian, Zhou Tai, Xiahou Dun: Speed Character? Hell no, they all fit more in Tech (specially Zhou Tai IMO) and Power. Nagamasa Azai, Kunoichi, YOSHIMOTO, Zhu Rong: Power? Not theyre style. Exept Nagamasa (fit more tech) they're all be more usefull in speed. and also, Dian Wei, Xu Huang, Cao Ren: Tech? They've put Put Dian Wei in Tech, it's like putting Orochi and Lu Bu in speed. -Ji Yin.

This guy definitely isn't a rock anymore.... Posts: 4,439 Group: Members Member #749 Joined: February 21, 2006 Gender Male	Isn't just a good thing that all strong characters aren't Power or fast characters aren't Speed >_>? I mean, Dian Wei is great character although he isn't Power (has one of the best R1s if you ask me) and Taishi Ci is even better since he can cut down the slow recovery time from his Charge attacks + combine two useful R1 attacks with his regular attacks. And uh... how would Zhou Tai be better as Tech. character? Considering his moveset, only his C3 would benefit from R1 boost. Besides, you should remember that he is one of those Speed characters who have strong and spammable R1 attack. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing Lu Bu as Speed type since I don't think he's one of the best Power types in game. His godly C3 attack isn't so godly anymore (doesn't activate elements), C4 and C5 are still unreliable, and only the first slash in his C6 activates the elements. At least he has useful R1 attack but it takes away great amount of Musou (which is troublesome if you play without Focus ability) which means you can't rely on it all the time. He's strong character, I admit that, but definitely not as strong as he was in DW5.

They've put Put Dian Wei in Tech, it's like putting Orochi and Lu Bu in speed. That was probably done for balance and variety. I haven't played Dian Wei and Xu Huang extensively enough to analyze the merits of power vs. technique for them, but I think tech is just right for Cao Ren. It gave him crowd escape options that he wouldn't have as a power character with his original move set, and it likely increased the damage he can deal. In DW5, Cao Ren could could tank through a crowd, fill musou, use it, and repeat or run off somewhere and spam C3 from a distance. Now that musou is not so easily filled via fighting and C3 doesn't hurt quite as much as his brawler charges, he'd get beaten up a lot without much to show for it. As a tech, Cao Ren has a counter dash that gets him out of crowds. C1 and C4 - his most useful WO charges, thanks to Range and Agility - bounce enemies and can be chained, which leads to insane critical hit damage with Air + Multi as I described above. Sure, he can be interrupted and juggled now, but the agility and hilarious overkill damage potential are a worthwhile tradeoff.

Good points there, but he's still one of the games worst overall. Speed would have been better for him IMO. He's already a defensive powerhouse still, and even not as a power type they at least kept his "unique" ability to not be interrupted in his string. But they missed the boat with not giving him that DEF buff from SW2 on his stomp like with others. They gave it to Pang De?

But they missed the boat with not giving him that DEF buff from SW2 on his stomp like with others. They gave it to Pang De? I could have sworn he gets interrupted during normal attacks. I will verify later today. How is Cao Ren one of the worst? I find that he kills efficiently and plays a good game of keep-away. I'm no godly player, but I've essentially soloed several chaos stages (up to and including 5-starred) with him, only swapping in one of my two weak teammates to pick up experience scrolls. I don't want to repeat my analysis of his move set too much because I wrote a FAQ on it. Short version: the R1 throw decimates crowds awesomely. I already described the damage potential of his C1 and C4. Cao Ren also does well as a primary chaos tank because C1 and C4 fill efficiently with Absorb and Drain.

Killing people in the jungle since your mom was born Posts: 253 Group: Members Member #10,246 Joined: October 10, 2007	I find having a good Power type character with me since their ability to tank through damage makes them invaluable especially in higher difficulty stages + Bowmen/Gunmen. And those Power types with R1 Anti Crowd attacks + Buffs (Tachibana, Guan Yu, Ranmaru. to name a few) have great Synergy with Hideyoshi's R1 buff, doubling to tripling their deadly power with increased Speed and Damage power. As for Techs, Nobunaga is certainly my favorite of all Tech Types. Since almost ALL of his charge attacks are retardedly powerful

Since almost ALL of his charge attacks are retardedly powerful Pang De is an example of a power-type who is NOT immune to those bows, making him 1 of the worst characters in the game. Without those ability to tank, being a vulnerable power character is useless. Guan Ping is a good example where he can both tank and release elements on his C4.

don't get too excited, i might leave again y'know Posts: 1,508 Group: Members Member #6,502 Joined: April 3, 2007 Gender Male	Power- I love their R1 because they are so powerful! But they are very expensive in musou Technique- Their R1 are useful and powerful, they have counter attack plus, they can improve their charge attack! Speed- Air dash, their R1 (some characters) are free and can spam... WINNER: Technique!!! :lol:

I think her SS+R1 is more useful then her actually moveset. On top of that I stop using all the Tech musous as well.

Young Romantic Posts: 124 Group: Members Member #11,325 Joined: November 22, 2007	I like both Tech and Power, especially Power for being unable to get stunned in mid attack (useful in groups of archers/musketeers sometimes on higher difficulties) and for their vast R1 But I'd prefer Tech, I just love some new moves of theirs, enhanced charge attacks, being able to counter blows, and dealing critical damage to midair enemies with their R1 special/charges.
