Wheels

Discover the best combos, Battle Arts, and weapon attributes for the Wheels, the ultimate weapon in Dynasty Warriors: Origins. Learn how to dominate the battlefield!

Alright, let's talk about the Wheels! This is basically the ultimate weapon in Dynasty Warriors: Origins, and it's all about keeping those evade and strong attack rings swirling around you. It's less about fancy combos and more about reacting to the situation on the fly. Honestly, it can be a bit much to keep track of, so I'll share what works for me.

Combos

These combos work pretty much anywhere, but they're especially sweet after a parry or a counter. The core idea is to keep those rings going!

1. Start with Block + Strong Attack to launch an enemy.
2. Immediately follow up with Evade + Strong Attack.
3. Chain into Crawling Dragon.
4. Then Evade + Strong Attack again.
5. Repeat Crawling Dragon -> Evade + Strong.

You don't *have* to use Crawling Dragon every single time if you want to save some energy for Tiger Blast. Use your best judgment here!

I find this combo super useful right after a parry, after an assault attack, or even when you get hit and need to quickly re-establish those spinning rings. The key is to spam Crawling Dragon followed by Evade + Strong to generate more rings. Grab the rings left behind by Crawling Dragon to boost your own spinning rings. When you're at max bravery or just need to finish them off, get in close and unleash Twin Tiger Blast.

Most Useful Battle Arts

• Crawling Dragon: This is your bread and butter. It's an off-hand attack that can interrupt enemies and, crucially, leaves behind a ring.
• Twin Tiger Blast: This is a powerful Fortitude damage art, but you need to be up close to get its full effect.
• Claw of the Predator: Might be handy for chasing down fleeing enemies.
• Flying Ring Rend: Great for chase-downs, it lasts about 0.5 Fortitude and also gives you back rings.
• Flying Lotus Gambit: This one has a ton of utility, giving you a massive amount of rings to work with.

Here’s what I’m running with right now, though I'm still testing some options:
