Sounds like a solid officer killer then. I'll just use a range weapon for the switch and it should be solid, unless I'm completely out of my mind.

And yes Kansak I'm happy the blade bow is returning. The more of the good 6 movesets they can bring the better.

To be fair, I always thought the bladebow would be decent for Gong. He shot at Cao Cao's head and it could be a weapon insinuating sneakiness so not impossible I suppose.

That is the most adorable two tailed fox thing ever!

Blade Bow and Twin Fans returning, that's cool. And i jut said I wanted some returning weapons, my prayers were answered pretty damn fast. That's a record!

Cue a choir of angels singing "Hallelujah".

The heavens have bestowed upon us the weapons from a time past and long forgotten.

In all honesty the blade bow doesn't excite me too much, not as much as the twin fans at the moment. That may change though, they may make the bladebow badass and more masculine?

I'm playing with the Emei Piercers, right now and HOLY CRAP! These weapons are a perfect fit for Wang Yi! It's scary!

Edit: I'll be sure to have a DLC Analysis video up on YouTube tomorrow. Would be tonight, but it's kinda late.

Yeah, these new weapons have been outstanding so far. It's nice that they're trying to distance themselves from the traditional roles the charges fall into, and that's a good thing for the future of this series.

As promised, here's the video. It should be up by the time I post this, but it may take a few more minutes to process.

I can see why they gave these to Wang Yi in the preview images because it fits her cold and brutal nature. Here's the rundown on the charges until my video is finished uploading...

C1 - A forward moving grab that puts enemies in the crumple state. Links to C3 for a pretty beastly combo.

C2 - A stylish multi-hitting launcher. Not much to say here. Chains into the switch attack for more combos.

C3- A grapple that resembles Zhao Yun's deadlock attack in DW6; it grapples an enemy, spins around to hit crowds and then stuns its initial target. The invincibility frames are nice, too.

C4 - A 2-hit combo that consists of a slash into a sweep. It's a really unorthodox C4 since it doesn't crowd control very well and it also doesn't knock enemies away.

C5 - An awesome looking dash attack that hits a strange area. Combos after it are rather difficult.

C6 - A grapple similar to Sun Ce's C6, complete with rapid stabs and a shockwave on the final hit which seems to be elemental. Sadly, it doesn't seem to hit airborne opponents. As a player who love stylish combos, I was rather disappointed with this move.

JA - A basic slash that can continue combos. Not much to say here.

JC - An aerial grab. Quite hard to aim, but it seems to be elemental as well. Incorporating this into one's playstyle will be difficult.

Switch attack - An instant attack that works exactly the same as the switch attacks on the Twin Swords and Spinner. Useful for combos. Switching into the Piercers activates an attack buff, but doesn't allow for combos afterwards.

I hope this helps! My video will be up in an hour or so, providing any problems on Youtube's end.
You mean Ma Chao's current switch attack...cause it's fairly obvious they are the same animation.

These guardian animals from the DLC are starting to get on my nerves. You can't sell them, but you can get more than one. This means that I have a bunch of the useless elephants that I can't ever get rid of. I hope they patch this soon because it's a really big oversight.

Koei is obviously on a bring back DW6 weapons as DLC kick now, so which other ones do you think they'll bring back? Also, what new characters could they fit or do you think they could go to any current characters?

The ones I can think of off the top of my head I want to see are Dian Wei's morning star, Gan Nings daggers, and Lu Bu's cross pikes. I wouldn't mind seeing Meng Huo's stone pillar make a return, but I don't see how that could work unless they add a new barbarian character later.

As for the characters, I'm just going to pull from the top 10 from the famitsu poll:

Morning Star: Zhu Ran or Yu Jin
Daggers: Lu Kang, since his dad has twin swords :)
Cross Pike: Gao Shun

@ Chen Gong
I agree with you, I think the blade bow could work really well for Chen Gong if they go that way with it.

They'd be better off hold some back for DW8 XL. It's a better idea since they can implement the character's EX and Musou attacks. Not all of the old movesets should be DLC right now. Koei could do it, but I think it would be a bad move.

I don't know how the Emei perciers (they actually aren't Emei Piercers though. Their more more like nails, akin to Fate Stay Night's Rider's nails, no idea why Koei called them Emeici...though the fighting style is similar) could be called gender ambiguous. The running animation, and the idle stance is very feminine.

『真・三國無双4 猛将伝』シナリオセット「陽平関」&特製支援獣「駁黒鹿毛」200円
This is DW5XL Yangping Gate stage with a special black horse that will be available for 200 yen.


Everything's already translated so I'll just put it there :whistle:

oh, and inb4 twin fans doesn't need to go to xiaoqiao because she's already unique with iron fan :ph43r:

Well it's called personal opinions though, for me I'm going to buy the Twin Fans so that I can exclusively equip it to XiaoQiao just like what I did with Blaze Blade to Sun Quan & Leg Greaves to Guan Suo :hehe:
I love you for all of this goodie info....

Now we just need the dian weis big chain and ball, gan nings daggers and guan pings dw5 sword

With all the griping given about sun not getting the kicking moveset when the game was in prerelease... You would think people would be happy... But no... I like the idea of suo getting the greaves... And rehashing the nunchuks like they did with the flail (which is much better now anyways)... They are gonna eliminate the single fan all together from playable characters, make it a switchable weapon or give it to a new guy in 9... And sun quans new sword looks mighty awesome for him...

Have we discussed who might get the hand arbelest and why?

I don't know about others, but I rather Guan Suo just get a revamped set of nunchucks that does more kung fu...the current charge attacks are fine. I don't know why people have a problem with them, outside of it being a short range weapon. I didn't really care for Ling Tong's charges in WO3 personally (too much break dancing, not enough martial arts).

We will have Bladed Crossbow and Twin Fans back.

Why am I smelling the crossbow will go to Yuanji and twin fans for Xiao Qiao?

Now I need to go back and play WO3 to see the differences between the two sets...

And what's the verdict on the screw crossbow aka hand arbelest

Maybe some of the archers should use the Screw Crossbow? ^^

The Emei Piercers attacks remind of Wang Yi's attacks o.o
