My favorite special attack is swift attack because u will get powerful and ur attacks will be harder to be interrupted(in some characters' unique skill). My favorite special attacks(from favorite to least favorite) 1.Special attack 2.True Speed 3.Volley 4.Fire 5.Rockfall I dont like rockfall that much since it doesnt last that long. |

I like true speed depending on the character, Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun are good with it, with rapid square pressing, they constantly attack, but with people like ling tong, they sorta slide and slash and then runa bit and repeat, so it doesnt do as much damage, so id have to say Volley is the best coz it isnt really affected by character very much and it usually decimates everyone around
 so 1.Volley 2.True speed 3. fire 4. swift attack 5. rock fall (i only like rock fall on slants, but i usually dont find myself in that position often enough) |

Hmmm...I think,it's up to the character. With some characters,it works perfect,with some not. Best examples are Zhao Yun and Xu Huang/Ling Tong. These characters have True Speed,but Zhao Yun's attacks are musch quicker,while Xu Huang's/Ling Tong's are very slow and not much effective. Also Xiahou Yuan and Zhuge Liang are good. Both can optain in Lvl 50 3 specials,and their attacks take longer,too. You can capture a base with Zhuge Liang for example in one run because his attack halfs the life of the soldiers in the base and kills them with fire. Xiahou Yuan's attack is volley,so you can kill many enemies. 1. Volley 2. Fire 3. True Speed 4. Swift attack 5. Rockfall Rockfall is not effective. It's very short and doesn't hit many enemies (only in crowds). Stupid that Cao Cao has it >.< |

@'Sun_Ce': I agree with you about True Speed. The characters like Zhao Yun have the best version, but those like Ma Chao's and Xu Huang's are much less effective in this regard. @Lord_Cao_Cao: I would've given Cao Cao Swift Attack out of those listed. For me, I like my True Speed the best (only due to me liking the best character's versions.) 1. True Speed 2. Swift Attack 3. Volley 4. Fire 5. Rockfall 4 of us now have listed Rockfall as our least favorite. Its become somewhat predictable that it needs to be worked on if to return in any expansion or DW7. |

Heres my list: 1. Fire 2. Swift Attack 3. True Speed 4. Volley 5. Rockfall Fire: One reason I like to use Zhuge Liang, its devatstating on the enemy. Swift Attack: Can save you when your renbu is down plus it gives an atk boost, useful for the more difficult modes. True Speed: Depends heavily on the character, but devastating in crowds, also useful when you want to get from point A to point B fast on horse, like The Battle of He Fei (Wei) Volley: Thins out the crowds, but not as useful as Fire Rockfall: Short, little effect unless used on sloped areas like staircases, dosen't save you from bad situations like the other attacks. |

1.(tie) True Speed & Fire 3. Volley 4. Swift Attack 5. Rockfall True speed, as oblivion said, helps a bunch when you are low on renbu. but the versatility of fire is great. its the one that can be used in any situation. officer killin, base taking, thinning crowds, its just that versatile. Volley is better once you get the rate higher. Swift attack can become useless at times once you reach max renbu. I forget to use it with Guan Yu at times and forget I even have it. And Rockfall was a decent idea but executed badly. The only use I find for it is get lucky and hit a hyper officer to knock him down. Then its easier to run away if you have low life. |

I was actually thinking about making this thread last night!
 1) Fire 2) Volley 3) True Speed 4) Swift Attack 5) Rockfall The first two are my favourites, simply because they're particularly powerful, as well as having a wide range. The former also has the benefit of setting bases on fire and thus taking them over particularly quickly. Swift Attack is handy for charging my Renbu to Max at the start of a battle, but other than that I find that it's not massively helpful against enemies that would batter you to death regardless of whether or not you flinch. And then we have Rockfall, which never hits anything for me.

I haven't worked with the best versions of all the specials enough to pick a proper favorite. I like Swift Attack. It's straightforward, which suits me, and maxes out renbu. This special is especially useful for characters who have Special Start, such as Cao Ren and Sun Ce. Being able to max your renbu at the beginning of battle - regardless of whether or not any renbu-maxing item jars are nearby - really comes in handy on high difficulty. As was mentioned, True Speed really depends on the character. I love it on Gan Ning. With others, it seems like I'm flapping around and never hitting anything. Volley seems useful, but I haven't extensively played anyone who has it. I also haven't worked much with Fire. It may be another one with varying usefulness. I heard that Zhuge Liang's implementation is excellent due to his skill tree enhancements. Rockfall is the least useful special. I guess it's fun to roll boulders down a hill, but that's about it. I share Lord_Cao_Cao's frustration because poor Lu Meng got the box o' rocks as well. <_< |

Volley is my favourite. When Yuan Shao has Stamina + and Thunder on his Volley, then everyone is as good as dead. |

1. Fire 2. True Speed 3. Volley 4. Rockfall 5. Swift Attack Fire just destroys bases completely, and it appeases my pyromaniac side  True speed with Zhou Yu, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning are all immense and devestate large groups of enemies. Also it is good for increasing movement speed. Volley is useful when fighting alot of enemies but apart from that its not anything special. Rockfall doesn't do much unless you only use it at certain times but then it still is pretty average. With enough skill, high renbu is a bonus, not something extremely useful. |

For characters who benefit from a standard weapon, which is most of the cast, high renbu means they'll be hitting much more of the screen with each strike. This translates to faster musou filling and more effective musou because it can take out more enemies at once. This is incredibly useful on high difficulty where the game forces you to kill fast or be screwed. |

My favorite is the swift attack, it deals a way more deadly attack and makes you tons more powerful and gives you a full renbu. I also like true speed, that is for certain characters of cource. Zhao yun it works awesome for, but it is not so good for the spear characters like Zhang He, Sun Ce, Tashi Ci and Ma Chao. I hate Fire when it is used against me, all those stupid NPCs always use it before they are about to die and it ends up flaming the entire base. my list Swift Attack True Speed Volley Fire Rockfall |

Fire is nasty - really makes a mess of the foot soldiers and to me its the pick of the bunch. The one i hate the most is the true speed, its the hardest for me to control and reminds me too much of Gan Nings old musuo attack. |

1. Swift Attack 2. Fire 3. True Speed 4. Volley 5. Rockfall I find Swift Attack to be very useful since it fills my renbu at full to unleash more powerful attacks especially with enemies that are known to consistently parrying attack on me which knocks my renbu down a level. Fire comes in second since it's fun to burn bases down and confuse the enemy more. True speed is okay on some characters while others shouldn't even be using it. Volley and Rockfall is useful to a certain degree but then again it doesn't really help for the most part. |

My list would be: 1.) Swift Attack: A great special move; It grants Infinite Renbu, and makes attacks stronger and faster. Great for getting experience, especially in a crowd of officers. 2.) Fire: Also a great tome attack, as you can decimate enemy bases, and reap the rewards from fallen soldiers. Also good for getting experience, but is useful mostly for bases. 3.) True Speed: It would be number two, if it weren't for the "worse" True Speeds, like the spear(Sun Ce, former Ma Chao/Zhang He) moveset, or the halberd moveset(Lu Meng, Guan ping, Xu Huang, etc.) 4.) Volley: It's there, wide-range, and has multiple effects that can be put onto it. Good for long range, solid hitters, though there aren't too many that have Volley. 5.) Rockfall: Meh. Though I haven't used it too much, I don't consider it too effective. Big rocks don't mean big KO count. Edited by Bamboo, Feb 23 2009, 12:22 AM.

I love True Speed, absolutely perfect when you were in a large battle in a base, you just run around like a headless chicken taking out several soldiers, and even some officers in seconds. I'd rate Fire a close second, again in a base it's very destructive, next would be Volley, it grants you solid protection while you can still get in some hits. Forth I'd rate Swift attack not too far behind either, depending on your character and weapon type the benefit can be negligible to awesome, which is why I won't put it as top three. Last would be Rockfall, I've never found much use for it, and it's rare to get in a position to take advantage of a hill or something like that, and if you do you can just jump into a base for a surprise attack anyway, stupid rockfall. True Speed > Fire > Volley > Swift Attack >>>>>>>> Rockfall. |

Everyone in this thread already stated pros and cons for each special attack, I would just repeat what has already been said. So I only say that I voted and love True Speed, it's useful and fun as hell. Moreover, many of my favourite characters have True Speed, and it works good/great with them (I'm speaking of the DW6 for PS2. I didn't play the PS3 version, so I can't say for Ma Chao, Ling Tong and Zhang He when they weren't decloned). |

Favourite to least: Fire- it's fun setting bases alight  (devestating with Zhuge Liang)True Speed- u can fly through the map when u use this on horseback. Volley- gives u some space from all those pesky peons. Rockfall- pretty lame most of the time but it can be fun when ur on a hill. Swift attack- boring, not really that helpful, especially when ur playing with a character who has infinite renbu. |
