How To Increase Ranks In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

Leveling Up in Dynasty Warriors: Origins: A Guide to Increasing Your Rank

In Dynasty Warriors: Origins, your rank is essentially your character level. A higher rank significantly impacts your battlefield success, especially against formidable foes like Lu Bu. This guide details how to effectively increase your rank.

Ranking up isn't simply about defeating numerous enemies. Your rank is directly linked to weapon proficiency. You begin with a level 1 sword, but proficiency increases with battle experience. This isn't solely about enemy kills; it also involves utilizing various Battle Arts (special abilities) for each weapon type and employing diverse combo attacks, rather than relying on basic sequences. Experimentation with different combat styles is key to boosting proficiency.

Increased weapon proficiency directly translates to rank advancement. Leveling up grants significant improvements to health, attack power, defense, and other bonuses at specific rank milestones. These bonuses include increased Bravery (allowing more Battle Arts usage) and access to new skill trees for further stat enhancements.

While you start with a sword, nine distinct weapon types await discovery throughout your journey through ancient China. Mastering all nine is crucial for reaching maximum rank. Each weapon possesses unique properties and optimal battlefield applications. Don't hesitate to switch weapons mid-battle to maximize experience gains for each. Strategic weapon usage and exploration of game mechanics are rewarded with faster rank progression.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
