Learn how to obtain the powerful fourth weapons for characters like Zhao Yun and Guan Yu in Dynasty Warriors 3: Complete Edition Remastered. Requires Hard mode.

  • Must be playing on Hard mode.
  • Either Musou or Free Mode can be used, with Free Mode generally being easier.
  • You must be the one to deliver the killing blow to specific officers; bodyguards or other allied soldiers getting the final hit will not count.
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Understand that weapon requirements can trigger either a supply team appearance or a special item report. Special items remain in place, while supply teams appear at one location, move to another, and then retreat. You must defeat the supply captain before they escape to claim the item.
  2. 2
    For weapons requiring the defeat of a supply team, consider using a second player. The first player should be the character for whom you are trying to obtain the weapon, and they can remain in a safe area. The second player, ideally a powerful character, can then perform the tasks to make the supply team appear, defeat the captain, and secure the weapon. Even if the second player picks up the item, you will still receive credit.
  3. 3
    Utilize horses to speed up tasks and to catch up to moving supply teams. Acquiring the Red Hare or Hex Mark saddles is highly recommended for efficient fourth weapon collection.
  4. 4
    Be aware of elemental effects that can be attached to fourth weapons: Red (Fire) causes enemies to burn, Blue (Lightning) spreads to hit groups when an enemy hits the ground, and Purple (Death) instantly defeats lesser enemies and deals 20% of current health damage to generals.
  5. 5
    Take advantage of the save feature within stages. Saving after completing certain objectives allows you to reset and retry if you make a mistake, which is particularly useful for timed events or long waits for supply teams.
Tips
  • The two-player trick can be used in two ways: if the target character is weak, make them player one and a maxed-out character player two; if the target character is strong, make them player two and a starting character player one. Keep the unused player in a safe location.
  • Horses, especially with Red Hare or Hex Mark saddles, are crucial for speed and catching up to supply teams.
  • Experiment with your special attacks to discover which one triggers the elemental effects of your fourth weapon.
  • Save frequently during stages to mitigate errors and retry difficult sections.

Zhao Yun: Chang Ban Stage (Shu Side)

  1. Defeat Xiahou Dun and Zhang Liao.
  2. After a short period, Cao Cao's unit will appear.
  3. When Liu Bei calls for help, mount a horse and ride to him. A cutscene (a non-interactive cinematic the game plays automatically) (a non-interactive story sequence) will play.
  4. After the cutscene, defeat Zhang He.
  5. A supply troop will appear near Zhang He's starting point and head towards the northeast entry point.
  6. Hunt down and kill the supply captain to obtain the item.

Strategy for Zhao Yun:

  • Consider using the Red Hare saddle to ensure you have a horse.
  • Prioritize defeating Xiahou Dun, Zhang Liao, and the gate captains in the upper right.
  • If you don't have a horse, acquire one and then deal with enemies in the bottom right.
  • When Cao Cao's unit appears and Liu Bei speaks, indicating the critical moment, ride to him for the cutscene.
  • After the cutscene, defeat the enemies near Liu Bei, then proceed to defeat Zhang He. The supply team should appear near Zhang He's initial location.

Benefits for Zhao Yun's Fourth Weapon:

  • Provides significant boosts to four important stats, including extra attack, substantial HP, and defense, making him more durable.
  • Grants two lightning attacks, though their overall usefulness is moderate.

Guan Yu: Guan Yu's Escape Stage (Guan Yu's Side)

  1. After passing the fourth gate, a supply team will appear north of the fourth fort and move south.
  2. Kill the captain to obtain the weapon.

Strategy for Guan Yu:

  • This is a straightforward objective. After passing the fourth gate, you should encounter the supply captain along your path, making them an easy target.
