The metal greaves are ridiculously large...I wonder how Guan Suo can even jump up in these, but after all it's a game and in a game everything is possible... :rolleyes:

The Emei piercers aren't too large, and I'm thankful for that.

These Greaves are very similar to Juza's moveset from Shin Hokuto Musou, very similar, maybe even some Thouser too.

This weapon is mad hype! It's unique in that conseciutive square attacks can only be done if they make contact with an enemy, and all of its moves put you in the air. The switch attack can be done in the air as well. Naturally, it's a jump cancel weapon as well.

Video coming after I get some practice in. Please be patient, Kansak. :p

C5 into switch attack is a combo, and the switch attack has hard knockdown!

He's not lying about that, you can basically keep attacking with them if some one is around and never drop your combo. The only thing that doesn't put you in the air is the C1. Pressing triangle again after any charge attack seems to be the key to keep your combos going.

Oh wow from what i read on Tetsuo's post, it seems that metal greaves are an interesting weapon, although to be honest i never liked the weapon that launch enemy to the air (that's why i rarely use Jiang Wei's weapon eventhough i loved his weapon on Multi Raid 2). But i'm going to wait for the video before giving any further judgement.

And regarding the other DLCs, i personally not too interested with the latest DLC wallpaper style, would prefer something like DLC wallpaper from Orochi 3 than this. The emei piercer and the weapon skin is the only DLCs that i'm really waiting for in next week update.




Anyway bigger screenshot(s) of emei piercer:

I'm uploading the video now. Don't expect super high-level play since the weapon literally just came out, but I do show some basic combos. I'll post the link here and in the video thread when it's done. Given my Fisher-Price Internet, it should be up within two hours of this post.

Anyone else notice how much better the DW6 costumes look in DW8, well to anyone who has the game and downloaded them. Look a bit more detailed and they don't have that plastic look to them like in DW7 lol.

i bet Zhang Hes ribbons on his DW6 costume flow 'beautifully' in the wind during running and attacking animations.

Emei piercers could fit both male strategist and female characters, so... it could be even for Chen Gong. I prefer some different thing for him though.
And 5th boots... teal or green?

Update on the Greaves. Really good combo potential.

As noted by Tetsuo, contact has to be made for S String to continue. The flying in the weapon's name is due to the entire S-String and charge attacks being airborne. The S-String uses force of kicks to keep user airborne.

Charges do make you airborne. All charges can be jump canceled.

C1. Low sweep kick. Hits Grounded enemies into spin launch. Even if they're airborne they'll be spun. Stupid good for continuing combos
C2. Light Rider Kick that launches enemies
C3. Grapple. Similar to Sophitia's A+G throw from SC if my notations are right.
C4. Flash Kick
C5. Aerial Heel Drop that launches enemies
C6. Aerial spinning kicks followed by a flying knee.

Jump Attack. Single kick that slams enemies to the floor while knocking them back up from impact
Jump Charge. RIDER KICK. Can be jump canceled on contact. Good for combo opening.

Switch Attack Ground. Single kick that hits multiple times on contact. Knockback. CAN BE JUMP CANCELED.
Switch Attack Air. Hard Knockdown drill kick towards the ground. Jump Cancel too

Storm Rush. Chun Li lightning kicks followed by a roundhouse
Variable Counter. Evades towards the side and comes in an angle with a falling kick

Maybe Emei Piercers for Lady Bian in DW8XL. :shifty: I would hope that the weapon would go to a female but who knows with koei. :hehe: Oh, the 5th version of the Greaves is green, most excellent. :shifty:

Lady Bian in XL? considering there are not many choices left for Wei female characters I don`t mind it, but... Cao Cao with wife, kinda difficult to imagine. He was not perfect husband, he had many women. Sorry, but Bian Shi never happen, as well Guo Nuwang. More obvious next fem. in Wei is Cao Jie, but her role should be changed. In history she was against father and brother, but hell in tv series she brings a lot of drama!

really sad... Zhou Tai`s purple katana is too much distorting... don`t like it all.

It's funny you mention that because Zhu Rong actually has 4-star proficiency with the greaves! So she has access to the jump cancelling as well as the increase in attack speed.

I don't even need to go into detail of what Lady Bian could bring to the table besides being Cao Cao's wife. This is not the place for that anyway. The its hard to see Cao Cao with a wife card is getting really tired around here.

Kinda gotta agree with WarHawk.

On the topic of the DLC however, I am digging the Emei daggers and the greaves! Can't wait for when they drop stateside over here :3 As for the ROTK-esque wallpapers those are gorgeous too, and I don't even like half those characters.

Haha so cute. :rolleyes:

Anyway, loving that Wallpaper of Diao Chan dancing for Lubu and Dong Zhuo. Can't wait to nab it next week from somewhere. To the people who have the greaves how much does it suit Guan Suo?
