How To Increase Ranks In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

In the action-packed world of Dynasty Warriors: Origins, your rank—essentially your level—is key to conquering challenging battles and formidable foes like Lu Bu. Climbing the ranks unlocks significant advantages, turning the tide of war in your favor. But how do you achieve this coveted high rank?

Your journey begins at rank one. Progress isn't simply about defeating countless enemies; it's intricately linked to weapon mastery. You start with a single level 1 sword, but consistent combat sharpens your skills. Effective rank progression hinges on weapon proficiency, boosted not only by enemy kills but also by creatively utilizing Battle Arts (special abilities) and diverse combo attacks. Avoid relying solely on basic combos; experiment with different attack styles for optimal rewards.

As your weapon proficiency increases, so does your rank. Each rank upgrade enhances your health, attack power, defense, and unlocks further benefits. At specific rank milestones, you'll gain increased Bravery (allowing more Battle Arts usage) and access to new skill trees for stat boosts. While you start with a sword, nine unique weapons await discovery throughout ancient China. Mastering all nine is crucial for reaching maximum rank. Each weapon possesses unique properties, making strategic weapon switching mid-battle advantageous for both combat effectiveness and balanced experience point gains across all weapons.

Embrace experimentation. Dynasty Warriors: Origins rewards players who explore its mechanics. The more you experiment, the faster you'll climb the ranks. Master your weapons, diversify your attacks, and conquer the battlefield!

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