Of all the characters in the game, which do you think are better with their new movesets? For me, there are 3. Zhao Yun - Have you played as him? Everything about his new moveset screams "amazing". The way he swings his weapon, his charge attacks, his weapon deadlock win attack, and his musou are all far superior to his old set. Zhang Jiao - I love Zhang Jiao, but I never liked his old moveset. Now, he's much more fun to play as. Diao Chan - I never liked Diao Chan, she was one of my least favorite characters. Now with her new weapon and moveset, I think she's amazing in every way. ----------- So what about you? |

I find Zhuge Liang to be much more fun to play as now. The magic themed moveset beats his old one even if his previous moveset had more lasers. Though his musou could use better range on the lightning. |

i find that almost all the characters have benefited from the new movesets: Zhuge: now he is far more awsome, and right now, i almost have him at lv50, hes at 43 right now, but his special move is devestative when going into a massively overcrowded enemy base Ling: even though i miss his nunchaku, his new moveset can be used to create some mass amounts of havok there are a whole lot of other, like zhao yun, zhang fei, liu bei, ssx, zhou yu, pang tong, diao chan, lu bu ( ) but there are some who have sorta killed them, like wei yan and zhou tai

There's Zhuge Liang! My Lv.50 masterpiece of destruction! His moveset totally beats his old one! It suits him more now. Also, Zhang Fei! The range is simply amazing...O__O He's one of my top favorites to use. The moveset is also damn power. |

As much as I liked all there old movesets, Zhang Liao has improved a lot with his. He was awesome before, but now its a lot better, if not a bit overpowered Lu Bu, just great now. Can destroy, and is cool. I really like his running [] Zhuge, now has more magic. Love his telecinesis his moveset is awesome, but his musou could be better, and his charge lasers, even when at infinate renbu, aren't that great, though can be useful and fun :lol: Zhang Fei has improved a lot too. He is very destructive and a lot quicker. Most characters have improved actually. Sun Ce, though I miss his tonfa, is a lot better too. His attacks can destroy. |

Zhao Yun - He has improved very nicely for the series, his move-set has to be my favorite. His musou is much like the DW5 intro, and looks somewhat more in the Kung-Fu style! The weapon deadlock win was also inspired from that very intro, very fun to play as. Cao Cao - For someone with a sword his move-set suits him well and the musou particular done excellent. |

Zhao Yun - I didn't think he was all he was cracked up to be in DW5, his moveset was pretty average but now he has really improved. Diao Chan - I really couldn't use her before because of the terrible range and weak attacks. Her whip is a big improvement IMO and has a far better moveset overall. Zhuge Liang - Now that he is the only one with a fan I guess KOEI decided to make the most of it. I find him awesome now and he has such an effective moveset with the element attacks. |

Gotta say I agree with most of the choices on here. And Sanada is right, pretty much everybody improved in some way. I think my favorites are the 3 Brothers though. All three of them are much faster and stronger than before. And Zhang and Guan have godly range with a ranged weapon. And Liu Bei is the best improvement of the three. I personally think he went from mediocore to great. Who knew doing what they should've done in DW3 and giving him his swords would make him so much better. |

Hm, I really don't see this, whether it might just be me, I only found Liu Bei the best improvement. It has to be the new weapons, he attacks very Swift and his musou is devastating compared to many others. Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei in the other hand I found rather dull and low improvements in just about everything. Their R1 specials were poorly thought out, they have normal range and musou's well not that bad. Just can be me though. |

Yeah, I think it's just you. But seriously though, from what I've experienced, Zhang Fei has improved in every way. While Guan Yu hasn't improved as much as his Zhang Fei, he's still better than his old self. Oh, and I'll just throw my opinion out that every single character I've ran into has a better moveset with the exception of the "Noble Sword" set that Yuan Shao, Cao Pi, & Sun Quan have. That's the only set that I can say that I dislike. So now I'll get technical and say every character has improved except Yuan Shao & Sun Quan IMO. |

Well, I haven't played with everyone yet, but I'd say my two most favorite improved characters are (as mentioned by many others) Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi. I actually did not enjoy playing as Zhuge Liang pre-DW6... not very much. His moveset seemed very stationary and I thought his one (albeit larger) laser was inferior to Sima Yi's multiple ones (plus they weren't purple). However, in DW6 he received a much needed up-grade. His grapples are some of the most entertaining in the game, and the magical wind blast attacks are a bit more believable than thwacking peons with feathers. Plus, his infinite renbu has a giant sword like whip emerging from the center... overall his attacks are much more stylized and effective. Sima Yi was great with Black Feather but even more so with the Necrosis Claws (whatever they're called, I just love the cheesy name). Some don't particularly care for his moveset, but I really like it... it's elegant eye candy, yet also ruthless (those grapples and deadlock win attack! AmaZing!). His infinite renbu makes up for his lack of range. Admitedly, these two are really the only two I have used extensively but ... also, would I be the only one who doesn't particularly enjoy the bow moveset? I don't find it be to very satisfying... like it's too easy. <_< |

The characters that I think really benefit are.... (I'll just say the unique moveset character 'cause that's really what matters now) Liu Bei - His dual sword actions are awesome. Zhuge Liang - more cheesy laser for the win. Sima Yi - at least, it looks better than cutting people with a fan. Zhou Yu - His staff moveset is great and cool looking musou too. Lu Xun - never used him but I heard his dual dagger since DW3 to 5 are underpowered so much, but now he got nice Chinese sword. |

Zhang Fei: Raw power and awesome range, his attack speed is faster than before, honestly a genuine beast of the field, I've been waiting for a good revamp for my favorite and now he has the monster strength he deserved.
Zhuge Liang: More range involved and the fan-sword attacks are quick and deadly. Liu Bei: More swift and flashy, but the attacks range from good to bad, his charge attack needs work. Sima Yi: Very unique and good at killing generals now, range increased to. Lu Xun: I used him alot in previous DW games, but he always felt a bit narrow, thats different now that he has more range attacks and his moveset is really fast and quite strong, his charge attacks are really good. |

I believe all of the musou mode characters benefitted from the new movesets, I haven't unlocked Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Sun Jian and Lu Bu yet so I wont know how they work. However I think the new best movesets seem to be the strategists, they have bee boosted up so much they nearly have elements coming out their ears: Sima Yi - Awesome moveset, adds alot of personality and character towards him, sneaky yet powerful, yet vicious, awesome. Zhuge Liang - Another improvement, due to his previous moveset where his range was just shocking, he now his like air coming out of his attacks and alot more fluid with his movements, musou is one of the best with the finisher, ace. Zhou Yu - Just great fun, perfect for his character, fluid and powerful, all of the 3 main faces of each Kingdom, Zhao Yun, Xiahou Dun and Zhou Yu, now have long pole time weapons giving them all a sence of heroism. Zhou Yu had the best new touch, very ideal for when you play first time, like I did. I thik the best warriors type changes are: Zhang Liao - Cant dislike, quite physical and nt very fluid but his attacks are very precise. With weapons being the best for him, shows alot of his charcter and a great just over the average character. Zhang Fei - Probably the best change from it's predecessor, his attacks suit him so much more, adding not only personality but just an awesomness to play, runs quite slow but it really dosn't matter, his range and speed of his attacks however can make this guy quite unprdicatable and a great choice to play if you want to just hack away the other force, great. Beats his previous somewhat boring and simple moveset with a terrible musou. Gan Ning - Not alot of people like his new ways , but he's now extremely fast (like before) but given weapons that suit him more now, newcomers aren't gonna know what he was like before and wont judge him, he's the perfect character for those who prefer to just diveinto the action and slaughter everything with two very powerful daggers. He moves just ooze coolness and very enjoyable to play. Extremely underrated now.(P.S. Wish I could comment on Lu Meng .)

OK, well i'll touch on some of the ones that i think are best that have not been mentioned so far. Xu Huang-loved his old moveset, but the new pole-axe looks better, and his moveset is more fluid and gracful, and he has some great elemental and ground pound effects. a BIG WIN! Cao Ren-his old MS was dependable, but i never quite thought that the Buckler blade was the right weapon for him. the trident IS! this improvement is also one of the best. he's stil a tank, but a tank with some range and an amazing Musou and the lightening element rules all. Zhen Ji-her two very different MS are equal. i feel she's better than Diao Chao in DW6. Lady Luck, the tornados, the pink mega explosion at the end of her regular combo. however, the flute suits this refined and artistic woman far better than the whip. i hope she gets it back. Guan Ping-OH JOY! i despised that bastard sword. his new MS, look and weapon are SO much better. Ling Tong-same as above. Zhang He-i'm sitting the fence here. his claws were brilliant, but there were some elements of his MS that i thought could've been refined to be more effective. his new spear MS is the best of the "spear clones" and makes him VERY strong when leveled up. besides it's very stylish. i am not too fond of any of the leaders changes, also Pang Tong was completely ruined. |

Only got it two days ago, done a few story modes. I'll put my two cents in for who I've played as. Zhou Yu- I love the new Bo Staff. All the flips, twirls, and smacks all prove to be quite entertaining and a feast on the eyes. Zhao Yun- Imbalanced much? Took out Lu Bu on my first try with a level 1 on hard mode.. Xiahou Dun- Starts out rather painfully slow, but he eventually gains such mad strength and his speed is compensated for his range and radius of attacks. His grabs are very effective, and it's satisfying crushing people's skulls in with his grabs. Sima Yi- Awesome claws of doom? All I can say is..Dance puppets, DANCE! Gan Ning- His infinite renbu combo is just retardedly easy to kill people with. I mean, it's like an infant could play and kick ass with Gan Ning.. Ma Chao- I loved his old moveset, but when you use his True Speed..well..I One-Hit KO'd Sun Quan with it. I had three other officers around me to kill, and I missed out because of the sheer POWER of it (when it's been upgraded, of course.) Zhang Liao- Dear god. I have a power weapon with Berserk and True musou. I kill people in two hits or less (referring to named Generals such as Zhou Tai, etc.) To those who are skeptical about the Renbu system, I didn't think I'd like it at first. Once you're used to it though, dang, it really can make you enjoy the experience. Of course, your musou is still as deadly as ever. I was surrounded by no less than 9 officers Guan Du as Zhang Liao, and one of which had the "Inflammed Aura" where they're tougher than usual, and I took out all of them but Yan Liang. (I did have double damage though, just to be clear). Give it a try, you'll probably like it once you understand it. |

yes Xiao Qiao may not have a clone moveset but the fact that the original moveset that she does have sucks quite badly removes any good that would be. Then again I cant see Xiao Qiao using a chain-whip or Bow Heres hoping next time she recives some half-decent moves.I do like Cao Rens trident Just unlocked it and is happy happy happy with the look.HeeHee XD Pang Tong reminds me of Yoda

zhuge liang's normal moveset is much better, but i don't particularly like the ending moves to his musou attack. i like Lu Xun's moves quite a bit, they are far better than his old ones in my opinion. zhou yu has a flashy moveset, but i find it really difficult to hit anything with it - same goes for Xiao qiao, you need to have the renbu fully maxed to make it effective |

For me I would go with Cao Cao: I never really cared for his moveset originally in the game especially his musou attack. Now I have endless enjoyment of holding the charge button on Infinite Renbu and wiping out large crowds then I did before. Diao Chan: I hated those twin maces she had. The weapon didn't give have great range which is why I thought the whip was a better choice for her. Lu Xun: I feel that Lu Xun has improved better as far as I am concerned. I use to hate his previous moveset with the lack of range and weak musou attack that it delievered. I was really pleased to the change of his moveset and how it was carried over on to this game. Sun Jian: I think he was a much bigger improvement out of everyone else. His weapon may not have the best range which gives the enemy a better chance to attack him but if you give him a standard weapon then your fine. Sun Jian's tri-charge attack is by far the best move for me. There are a few others that I like but at the same time, I feel that their moveset originally were just as good. |
