as long as the Nunchaku is still available for use, and they dont flat-out get rid of it, I'll be happy with what they do with it.

My only gripe with the greaves are the size. The moveset itself fits Guan Suo quite well. It fits any agile, petite male fighter really well. I would use these on Guan Xing, Lu Xun, and Ling Tong as well as Guan Suo. But the size makes it seem like it should work for someone the size of like... Huang Gai or Deng Ai. But the moveset fits someone with a smaller frame. :kurokan: The weapon switch size curse strikes again!

Still would like to see these on Guan Suo though, and give the nunchaku to some new character. And Emeici Piercers should definitely go to Cao Jie. :innocent:

Honestly i like the fact their so big. it helps to reinforce the strength of the users leg-power to be able to constantly jump and kick and flip while using the move set.

I intend to have this move set on plenty of characters, and I'mhoping that I'll be able to use it with Meng Huo. the gauntlets for power attacks, and the greaves for speed attacks, would be fun alternating between the two.

This is the first weapon I can think of in a while that has such a large learning curve. Since you can't go past the first Square attack without making contact with an enemy, defensive playstyles that revolve around whiffing Square attacks to get to a charge when enemies approach won't work. It basically forces the player to constantly be right in the middle of crowds, which becomes a major weakness considering that all the attacks are airborne and archers will knock you down constantly. This weapon would probably be higher on a tier list if Combat Resistance was in this game, but it's rather average otherwise. Still, it's one of the most unique weapons in the game, and it's well worth the $2 as long as you don't expect to use it to do crazy Chaos Mode challenges or anything like that.

From what I`ve seen it has mostly areal attacks. Can`t say that I like it but it quite unusual and gives game some diversity. The weapon is huge, as Swan mentioned it might be good on someone bulky like Ding Feng or Deng Ai, so why not for Wang Ping? Anyway I really like nuncaku, and I hope they retain ex-user. As for Dao being cut... fine, it looses much other swords anyway (except awful zanbato).

when i get the boots I'm putting them on Xiao Qiao, i think for EU and NA we'll get the weapons in twos like DW7 and 7XL, it seems like a logical choice

That's........actually not a bad fit, assuming you aren't being sarcastic. She's active enough, but I'm betting the size would be giant on her.

no I'm not being sarcastic with this, I like to experiment with weapons and characters and yeah Xiao Qiao is energetic and lively so it felt almost right to put it on her along side the Iron Fan of course

I love how this one page has arguments saying the greaves are too big AND saying they're too small.

@Tessen, there was no argument. Just speculation on who people are experimenting the greaves with.

I think the greaves would fit a good number of characters. The greaves on Xiaoqiao aren't a bad shout, but I also think they's work great on Ling Tong, Sun Ce, Sima Zhao and many, many characters.
I'd say it seems to be a weapon created for the "young and energetic" type of character.

I'm not sure they are designed for a young character in mind though, perhaps though they are hinting who they belong to if they decide to make the last colour go the person in the certain faction. I would guess that this new DLC weapon would go to a monk like character, but I'm not sure who they would give this weapon to.

Its either going to have to Guan Suo judging from the screenshots or perhaps a new character which I would have to guess either Wang Ping since I would portray him as a bit stocky and the boots are big or someone veteran like Liao Hua but I doubt he would get the boots. Both mentioned were candidates for being added to DW8.

Also I wonder if they were made into green for the last colour since the gauntlets are also green in the 6th weapon star set, which would make them match and would be a cool 2 weapon combo.

Hey guys! Look!

Watch the video. It seems that after you download patch 1.04 and equip a character with the boots, the boots will mysteriously disappear in-battle and it will look as if the character is weaponless and is using a martial arts moveset~ :D

I think it's a bug, but a good one. No more eyesoreness!!! :XD

thatts pretty cool. you know what would be cool is if they included a feature in options mode to turn the boots off, and have this an official feature. that would be cool.

Whoa, that's awesome! Too bad I already updated. Also, that's some smart use of the aerial switch attack, which is jump cancelable. Time to hit the lab and find some stylish combos with that!

Clear that up for me.

You mean to say, download the patch first and then equip the leggings OR download the patch after equipping?

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.
What actually makes them seem sneaky? And where'd you get backstabbing from?

@ Daosiying: Sorry, I got it wrong. DON'T download patch 1.04 and you won't see the boots.

So, delete the patch data. Got it.

Too bad there's no option to revert patches to previous versions. I would like to reap the benefits of 1.03.

Oh wow, I just saw, that the Greaves really have nothing on their backside. All you see is the character's heel. They also seem to be build so that they look like the latch on to the users feet. See it clearly at the end of this video.

Finally saw the Flying Kick Armour's moveset, and I quite like it. Wished it was faster but I'm sure the Godspeed attribute can settle things. What I don't like is how bulky it looks. I prefer if it uses Naotora's boots design instead of this giant boots. Looks weird.

Well, hopefully it goes to a new character so the size can be toned down. -_-

If they used the design for Naotora's boots, it wouldn't fit the big guys like Meng Huo and Dong Zhuo. So yeah, we'll have to deal with giant boots for now. >_>
