Leveling Up in Dynasty Warriors: Origins: A Guide to Mastering the Ranks
In Dynasty Warriors: Origins, your rank directly impacts your success in battle. Facing formidable foes like Lu Bu requires a high rank, so boosting your level is crucial. This guide explains how to achieve this.
Your rank functions as your in-game level. Starting at rank one, you progress by completing battles. However, simply defeating enemies isn't enough. Rank progression is intrinsically linked to weapon proficiency.
Initially, you'll possess only a level 1 sword. Proficiency increases with battle experience, determined by factors beyond raw enemy kills. Frequent use of Battle Arts (special abilities), diverse combo strategies (avoiding repetitive basic attacks), and experimenting with different attack methods all contribute to proficiency gains.
Increased weapon proficiency directly translates to rank increases. Leveling up grants benefits such as enhanced health, attack power, defense, and, at specific rank milestones, increased Bravery (allowing more Battle Arts usage) and access to new skill trees for further stat boosts.
While beginning with a sword, nine distinct weapon types await discovery throughout your journey through ancient China. Mastering all nine is key to maximizing your rank. Each weapon possesses unique attributes and optimal combat scenarios. Strategic weapon switching during battles ensures even experience point distribution across your arsenal. Experimentation is rewarded!
