I agree, they don't look all that good in my opinion either. Don't seem to be strong also. Least seems like it's easy to be struggling with them. Still not what i'd call a martial arts moveset, since the kicks look kinda slow, but they have a cool moveset that suits their name. I like the weapon, just hope it goes to a new character in the future better suiting that awful size, if they plan to keep it like that.
Who do you suggest?
If it doesnt go to suo, it's either for Lu kang or fCao Zhang..as long as it is not female though..

Anyway have seen the video...it looks awesome...although yeah it's not really safe...but it looks wicked!

I hope that the Purple Katana have taint skill or anything that suit it.

But no more thunder element please, Zhou Tai's 5th already got that . .

More costumes this month ?

It's a fun looking move set, it isn't really what I was looking for in terms of Guan Suo. Personally I hope that they don't go to him and Koei revamps the the Nunchucks with New Charge Attacks for 8XL. But as we've already seen, DW8XL and DW8 will share DLC and none of the DLC weapons will put on anyone until Empires, if then since everyone is de-cloned. At the least they'll be given EX attacks and be weapons you can use on Created Warriors.

Hmm, well you should know Kansak that my main suggestion would be to screw the weapon switch and shrink them down so they'd fit somebody xD Who else they could go to...to be honest I don't know many of the names people have suggested. Hmm, Maybe a big guy who's quicker than he looks?

A female...well just simply no. Don't get me wrong, the moveset would SO fit a female character a la Chun Li, heck the storm rush pretty much IS her kicks (Though the boomerang can do it better) so it could fit a female easy. Just the same problem, the boots are too damn big. xD

I think the greaves were made the way they were so that it wouldn't seem like a copy and paste of Naotaka's moveset from Samurai Warriors Chronicle 2. I like that its all airborne as its truly a unique style from another weapon type in the game.

Remember no one for now upgrade at max these weapons ...
Bus Im apretty sure with wind/electrocute and flash :D

And Oh yes next weak Zhou tai Swap color 5 star katana :D 8)
I actually made two optimized weapons with Wind and Agility late last night, but was too tired to do any filming. It helps, but it's still a difficult weapon to use. At least Wind increases the damage output and allows the player to not have to rely on C3 in order to start an offense. I'll post another video to show how this weapon would work in a maximized setting later today.

Also, your videos are really good! I hope your channel continues to grow; your Kamen Rider videos have a ton of views!

I'd say those Greaves should do to Wen Hu, Wen Yang's brother. I dunno why I just think they'd suit him. Has anybody seen the other weapon, or has that not been released yet?

The other weapon will be out next week. I don't know about PeJ, but I have the yen set aside for it, so I'll cover it when it's available. It's interesting how the preview associates it with Wang Yi, who already has a unique weapon. I thought it would go to Yuanji seeing as her weapon is now shared with generics.

What else would you guys like to see in terms of the Greaves? Chaos mode maximization, or practical combos?

I don't think they'll give Wang Yuanji a new weapon even though she shares with generics, it's really signature to her. I haven't seen what the weapon looks like yet but it sounds good for Bianshi so far.

Thanks tetsuo but I have a few videos with "tons" of view ... the other very poor views :(
About Emei => I will makae YTuanji Gameplay not Wang Yi.

About your video I think about optimisation.

To my side, I have to continue Kamen videos and continue to show DLC stuff .
DW8 story wioth explantions for stars and how to get 5 stars classic weapons will return wen the US game will be out :)

I thought about make CMV videos :D

Seen the Emei Piercers now and I'm convinced they should be for Lady Bian and that's it, just her. Hopefully Ma Chao, Guan Ping, Sun Quan and Xiaoqiao will still get changes in DW8: Empires though.

That wallpaper of Diaochan and Lu Bu is stunning, absolute WIN! Couldn't have picked a better moment between the two, cannot wait for that when it comes to the EU with DW8 in time.

EDIT: Greaves are disgusting, I hope Suo doesn't receive something so inappropriate. I doubt it anyhow, it's not like Deng Ai is getting the Screw Crossbow or Wang Yi the Emei Piercers.

Yeah, I know the lack of views on new videos can be frustrating, but you've got the right idea. High quality videos of brand new games or new DLC like the Greaves is a good way to get viewers and exposure. Battride War should continue to get you viewers for a long time since it's not being released outside of Japan and there's DLC for it as well.

@Chen Gong - I imagine these weapons will just be assigned to new characters later on. The preview images for the DLC weapons in 7 were thinly veiled hints at who was going to be decloned with them in 8, but I think the previews for these weapons are just there to show a character that can use them with max proficiency. For example, Guan Suo is shown in the previews because he has 4-star proficiency with jump cancel weapons. Changing the weapon of a character who's already unique is a big deal, and they probably don't want to switch things around too often.

I'm excited for emei piercers.

They do not look right with Wang Yi though. Her trishula / tridents just look so great on her. I can't see her with any other weapon.

Will probably end up playing Wang Yuanji with them.... I hate throwing knives with a passion but she is my favorite female character...

Same, I even think some may receive Musou's and Ex attacks in Empires specifically for CAW so characters can be a bit more unique instead of just using what official characters of the roster use. It'll be a ball-ache to switch Suo for absolutely no apparent reason, Ling Tong never used the Nunchaku in his Musou's either and nobody was saying he should get martial arts, Suo getting those boots is nothing more than a trend that's spread throughout this forum with very little thought. Not saying it's impossible, but it's extremely unlikely.

Well, like we thought Koei seems to be pushing the weapon as a female orientated one and they haven't shown a weapon yet out of the 4 that could go to a woman :/ . I think the female characters could do with 1 or 2 weapons made for them out of the 6-8 we might end up getting.

Bianshi isn't the best female around and would have been terrible in the past, but she could be OK if her role is kept to a minimum yet used effectively. Kind of like Nohime, she can be there and perhaps never even speak much throughout the game in cutscenes after her debut game.

Depending on how they portray Bianshi, I'm not sure emi piercers would fit her in terms of personality. I mean she is kind of a high class lady and not really known for sneaky backstabbing.

I think the piercers would suit Sun Luban's character more.

Dudes, Guan Suo's modern outfit is an ice skater, and a joke skin for the boots could very easily be ice skates! It's brilliant!

Tell me that wasn't planned.... :sly:

(probably wasn't :hehe: )

Whoever gets the grieves as the EX weapon is going to have thunder thighs. I'm sure of it.

Emeici piercers.....slightly larger than normal, which is good, but I don't see anything feminine or masculine about it. Might have to see some gameplay first.

I agree, it looks like a weapon that can fit a guy or gal. Just because they have Wang Yi using them doesn't mean it will have a feminine moveset.

Well the one move shown of the piercers stabbing a peon on the ground, probably one of the grapples, actually did seem kinda of a feminine move, so I kinda feel it'll go to a female. It's not like they're gonna tailor it to one character anyway though, we have weapon switch so it has to fit any character.

It's just that Lu kang being Sun Ce's grandson would make me think Lu kang using martial arts...

Any other suggestion besides wen hu i remember you named another guy..

okay so after seeing Guan Suo in action with these greaves, i can say that i am no longer against him getting them. they are very agile and quick and also they specialize in air combos, one of my favorite things to do in these games. I think it would be nice giving Guan suo such powerful and fun looking weapons, maybe it will help get rid of some of the hate he constantly gets.

As long as the Nunchaku get a change in attack skills and are either:
  • a) given to someone new
  • b)given to generics
i dont care, as long as the weapon is still available for the players to use.
