Cao Cao's fourth weapon
Play the Battle Of Xia Pi on the hard difficulty setting. Defeat Gao Shun before you get the message that he
is guarding the dam. You can get the message that he has begun guarding the dam, but you must defeat him
quickly after that. Then, just defeat Zhang Liao. The precious item box will show up outside the castle just
outside the south gate. Because defeating Gao Shun makes the castle be flooded, you must to go in the castle
from the north gate and go through to the south gate. Then, just attack Lu Bu. You do not need to defeat him;
if you do not defeat him fast enough, he will get bored and run, then and his troops will turn on him and
capture him, making you win the stage all the same.
Cao Pi's fourth weapon
Play the Battle Of Wu Zhang Plains on the hard difficulty setting. It is better to do this in Musou Mode than
in Free Mode. Wu Zhang Plains is a five-star battle, but in Cao Pi's Musou Mode it is only his fourth stage.
Thus, if you do this in Musou Mode the difficulty will be lowered somewhat. First, defeat any three generals
(not sub-generals) quickly. The ones that all grouped in the center make good fodder, as except for Wei Yan
they are all generic. Once you kill three generals, Zhuge Liang will pass away. Continue fighting normally. At
this point it would be a good idea to seal the enemy's supply route over to the east. Soon you will see an
event where Jiang Wei lays a group of automatic crossbows on the central platform. Now all you have to do is
get up there and break all of them. There will also be juggernauts floating around, not to mention archer
towers -- be careful. Once you have destroyed all single automatic crossbows, the precious item box will
conveniently appear in the middle of that central platform. Pick it up and finish the stage to earn your
fourth weapon.
Cao Ren's fourth weapon
Play Escape From Chi Bí on the hard difficulty setting. Your task is to defeat all enemy reinforcements
quickly. This means that you should be able to defeat the reinforcement before Cao Cao's own reinforcement
says something along the lines of "Go on first, I'll take care of things here!". You do not need to worry
about sub-generals; just get each major general as they show up. After you defeat Guan Ping, immediately go
south, as Sun Quan will show up in the southeast. Once you defeat Sun Quan, the precious item box will show up
in the little nook between where Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei appeared. Grab the item, then go up and defeat Liu Bei
to help Cao Cao escape.
Da Qiao's fourth weapon
Play the Battle of Xia Kou on the hard difficulty setting. You must defeat Cai Mao and Gan Ning before Ling
Tong is defeated. Go up the left side first; Gan Ning will appear almost immediately and kill Ling Cao, which
will prompt Ling Tong to charge. Gan Ning is in hyper mode for this battle -- be careful. Luckily, you will
have Huang Gai and Ling Tong also keeping him busy. Then, just go to the center section and defeat Cai Mao,
who is nowhere near as difficult. The precious item box appears just north of Cai Mao's position.
Dian Wei's fourth weapon
Play the Battle of Wan Castle on the hard difficulty setting. First, rendezvous with Cao Cao. Then, lead him
to the escape gates, defeating enemies and generals (there will be two of them) along the way. Once Cao Cao
leaves the castle and you get the event where Dian Wei stays behind to block the gates, the hard part begins.
You must not let a single enemy past the gates until you get the message that Cao Cao's escape is in progress.
This usually happens after you have defeated five or six troop leaders (the generic enemies with names over
their heads). Be careful, as the troop leaders tend to ignore you and just run straight past you. Once you get
the message, the precious item box will appear slightly in front of you. At this point it does not matter if
you let people past the gates (let too many and you lose the stage though), so go pick it up.

else play as that character with you controlling another character. Have them remain safe near the main camp
while you go out to kill the commander. Do this with all the levels to complete the Musou mode. You can also
use both controllers yourself. With controller one, take them to the main camp. Then use controller two and
complete the level.
Unique combos
Each character has his or her own unique combos. However, they use the same buttons to perform their unique
combos or moves. For example, Xu Huang's combos are as follows. Press X until he performs his first attack,
then immediately press Y. Press X until his second attack, then press Y. Repeat the same process for his
third, fourth, then fifth attack. Do not forget to press Y after every attack to successfully complete the
combo.
Burning in the air
While fighting someone difficult, such as a general or the Boss of the stage, set them on fire with a charge
attack or equipped item. It will drain their health until they hit the ground. If you set them on fire and
continuously juggle them in the air with an attack, the fire will keep diminishing their health.
Cut watchtowers in half
Certain characters have Jump Charge attacks (A + Y) that send them high in the air (for example, Jiang Wei and
Yue Ying). Use this move on a watchtower and the top of the tower will fall off and the bottom will stay
standing for a few seconds.
Recognizing signature weapons
In order to recognize a character's signature weapon, pay attention to the blue symbol that appears next to
the unlocked weapon.
Delayed weapon and valuable item messages
Sometimes the special message will not appear immediately after you complete everything required to obtain the
item or message. If you must complete something before a special attack, you will probably have to wait until
the attack occurs for the message to pop up. Before giving up on an item or weapon, double check the battle
log to see if you missed the message.
