How To Increase Ranks In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

Leveling Up in Dynasty Warriors: Origins: A Guide to Mastering the Ranks

In the action RPG Dynasty Warriors: Origins, your rank, essentially your in-game level, is crucial for success, especially against formidable foes like Lu Bu. This guide explains how to effectively increase your rank.

Your rank isn't simply about defeating enemies; it's intrinsically linked to weapon proficiency. Starting with a level 1 sword, your rank rises as your weapon skills improve. This proficiency increases not only by defeating enemies but also by utilizing diverse Battle Arts (special abilities), employing varied combo attacks (beyond basic three- or four-hit sequences), and experimenting with different combat strategies. The game rewards innovative combat approaches.

Increased weapon proficiency directly translates to rank advancement. Leveling up boosts health, attack power, defense, and unlocks additional benefits at specific ranks, such as increased Bravery (allowing more Battle Arts usage) and access to new skill trees for further stat enhancements.

While you begin with a sword, Dynasty Warriors: Origins offers nine distinct weapons to acquire and master for maximum rank progression. Each weapon possesses unique attributes and tactical advantages, encouraging strategic weapon switching during battles to maximize experience point gains for each. Experimentation is key to unlocking the game's full potential and maximizing your rank.

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