Online: 0

Approximate amount of time to Platinum: 70+ hours

Road Map:

 

Intro:

 

Koei's latest entry in the Warriors Orochi series, this game takes place immediately after the events of Warriors Orochi 2 (which was just an expansion to Warriors Orochi 1 in Japan, released as Maou Sairin). Orochi has been killed and a large Hydra has spawned which is killing off our heroes. Their answer? Go back in time to save them and put together a force capable of fighting back! New characters this time are: Ryu Hayabusa (Ninja Gaiden), Ayane (Dead or Alive), Joan of Arc (Bladestorm), Nemea (Trinity Souls of Zill O'll), Achilles (Warriors: Legends of Troy), Ne Zha (original), Kaguya (original), Susanoo (original), and Shuten Doji (original).

 

This game takes everything you knew from Warriors Orochi but adds a few new things:

 

* A new class called Wonder - This class deals more damage to guard broken enemies, and allows you to dash cancel certain moves with the jump button (at the cost of some Musou gauge). The dash cancel will break enemy's guards as it's very powerful.

* A new Triple Attack that lets you turn invincible for a short time, run around dealing large amounts of damage, and then gather up all the enemies you hit and explode them for more damage.

* A Musou Battlefield mode that lets you alter dialogue and enemies in levels to create your own experience! This mode can be played online with others as well.

* Weapon forging now uses money and stock experience is used ONLY for levelling your officers.

* Switch attacks - If you switch officers during your attack string, they will swap in with an attack and you can continue your combo safely.

* New Bond system - Having a high friendship with another officer will change their lines to you in battle (when you rescue them or fight against them). If they are higher than level 1 they may give you a lotto ticket (for free random weapons from the dealer) after a battle with them. If they're at max, they will also sometimes give you an extra weapon as well. The bond also goes both ways. If you have Kaihime at max with Sun Shang Xiang, Sun Shang Xiang will also have max friendliness with Kaihime, so you can play either and see the rewards.

 

Look at the end of the trophy guide for a database of levels and which characters they unlock.

 

 

Step 1: Play through the story mode on Normal. Since Normal difficulty won't get you the overpowered weapon attributes, you may wish to first clear the game just to get experience with the levels. Try to unlock all the Gaiden stages by using parties to get friendliness between the required people. Pick a character you like and use them as often as you can, as 100 stages is a lot to play if you're not doing it in conjunction with something else. When you get to Chapter 4, be sure to use a lot of lotto tickets, as you can earn 4 star weapons from there and save yourself some money. If you want to use them beforehand, that's fine too. You will have plenty of tickets by the end. Use the money you do have to buy four star weapons and hold parties as often as you can, even if it's the cheaper ones. Once you get Firm Bonds and unlock the Gaiden stages, it no longer matters who you hold parties with.

 

If you manage to clear every stage and make your way to the TRUE Ending, you will unlock:

 

(S) Gallery of Heroes

(S) Master of Time

(S) Slave of Sound

(B) Musou Fighter

(B) Overwhelming Victory

(S) In a Broken World

(S) Land of Peace

(S) The Fated Place

(B) The Flame of Hope

(B) A Hidden Smile

(B) Unwavering Hope

(B) Changing the Past

(B) Banner of Hope

(B) Traversing Time

 

Step 2: This can be intermingled with Step 1 depending on your progress. Start re-playing the required levels on Hard to unlock all the secret items. You will probably want to be level 25 or higher with a 4 star weapon (or maxed joke/unique weapon) before trying this difficulty. This will unlock:

(S) Musou Dilettante

 

Step 3: Now that you should have some decent attributes on your weapons from clearing levels on Hard, begin work on Chaos. Once you get your setup down, you shouldn't have any problems clearing the stages. This will unlock: (G) Peak of Performance.

 

Step 4: Mop up and grind for wallpapers and costumes. Be sure to get Dodomeki to S proficiency before you start, since you're going to be playing through a LOT of levels to get every officer to S proficiency, so every bit helps. Having everyone's 4 star weapons will make it easier. At this point, finish buying the 4 star weapons, hold parties like crazy until you have 100, finish getting your character of choice to 100 levels played, and mop up the other misc trophies (3000 kills, riding all siege weapons, clearing missions, clearing a stage in 5 minutes, clearing a stage with no damage, etc). Once you've completed this, you will have a nice new Platinum trophy. Congrats, you've earned it :)!

True Musou (P)

Obtained all trophies.

 

Self explanatory.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/5A5.jpg

Musou Collector (S)

Obtained level 4 weapons for all officers.

 

Level 4 weapons are the ones with four stars. You will be able to buy and find them from lotto tickets (randomly given to you by officers your party is friendly with level 2 or higher) once you clear chapter 3. I suggest not really worrying about using lotto tickets until you're at this point or at least waiting until you have a large amount of officers unlocked, since you only receive weapons for officers you have playable. Once every officer owns or has owned a level 4 weapon, the trophy will unlock.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/E65.jpg

Gallery of Heroes (S)

Unlocked all officers for play.

 

This will unlock when you clear the TRUE ending of the game, as you need all officers aside from the Orochi ones playable before the final level will unlock. Every character is unlocked simply from clearing stages (excepting the modified stages where you must interact with the character you saved, and ONE major exception) but certain Gaiden stages will require friendliness between certain characters to be higher than level 1 (aka get them maxed in red, then play 1 battle to get into yellow) before unlocking.

These are:

 

Chapter 2 Battle of Jiange - Motonari Mori, Jia Xu

Chapter 2 Battle of Mikatagahara - Lian Shi, Lu Meng, Masanori Fukushima

Chapter 2 Battle of Taoshui - Goemon Ishikawa, Hideyoshi Toyotomi (Lian Shi must be unlocked)

Chapter 2 Chaos at Tetorigawa - Zuo Ci, Benkei, Xu Huang

Chapter 2 Battle of Liang Province - Liu Shan, Guan Suo

Chapter 2 Battle of Mt Xingshi - Ginchiyo Tachibana, Xiao Qiao, Sun Shang Xiang (Chapter 2 Battle of Kyushu must be cleared)

Chapter 2 Purge of Nanzhong - Zhu Rong, Meng Huo, Zhang He

Chapter 3 Battle of Jie Ting - Xing Cai, Keiji Maeda

Chapter 3 Battle of Guangzhong - Sima Yi, Masamune Date

Chapter 4 Battle of Komaki Nagakute - Zhuge Liang, Huang Zhong, Hanzo Hattori

 

If 3 names are listed, each of those 3 must have level 2 friendliness with the other 2.

 

The one exception is Lu Bu. To unlock him, first unlock Diao Chan then use her in your party and play Chapter 3 Battle of Osaka Castle. When Lu Bu appears, you must run to him before he retreats from Ne Zha. You will know you did it right if he says a new line to you and Diao Chan responds, then he will turn from yellow to blue as an ally.

Master of Time (S)

Cleared all scenarios once.

 

Self explanatory but it's worth noting that if you clear a stage in Free mode rather than Story mode, it won't unlock the stage after it and you will have to clear it again in Story mode to advance. Be sure that every time you return to camp after clearing a level, you look around the base and talk to people. Certain people will make a stage available for you. See this post for more information.

Musou Dilettante (S)

Obtained every equippable item.

 

There are 10 Normal equippable items found randomly in battle (from crates or randomly dropped from enemies if you have Providence on your weapon) and 22 items that must be earned by playing certain levels on Hard/Chaos with certain members on your team and getting a certain number of kills.

Slave of Sound (S)

Listened to all the music.

 

This will unlock on its own if you clear every stage. All the ending stages share the same music so if you watched at least the Normal ending, you should unlock this as you work towards unlocking the TRUE ending. One track is for getting game over so be sure to do that once if you never did so.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/DA0.jpg

Veteran Warrior (S)

Entered battle over 100 times with any one officer.

 

Although the trophy says you just need to fight in them, you need to win too. You can track your progress during the loading screen. The window on the right, second word from the bottom is the number you want. Pick your favourite character and try to work on this as early as you can, as you may wish to drop them for Chaos if they aren't up to snuff. Bear in mind Story mode and Free mode count towards this but Musou Battlefields does not.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/5C6.jpg

A Kaleidoscope of Time (S)

Unlocked all wallpaper.

 

All officers have two wallpapers and the second is unlocked when they reach S proficiency. You will need to get all 132 characters to S. This is going to be a hell of a grind but here's what you will want to do. First, wait until you unlock Dodomeki from the true ending and get him to S proficiency - his team skill is to raise proficiency gain. Next, equip your target characters with Mystic's Brace, which raises proficiency gain. The rate at which proficiency goes up depends on the difficulty of the level. The easiest level for this is probably Chapter 3's Rescue at Yiling), which is a 9 star level. In this level you need 1300-1400 kills per person to get to S and you can get 3000+ kills easily in about 12 minutes (ranges from 7-16 depending on character and their attack string). If you have spare money try to buy weapons with Industry to forge onto your weapon. With this at +6 or so your kills required drops by over 100!

 

If you get someone to S in Musou Battlefields, it will not count as actually having used the character (times used will not increase) so you will need to play them one time in story/free mode to actually unlock the wallpaper and costumes.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/357.jpg

The Dandy Captain (S)

Unlocked all costumes.

 

Most characters gain costumes with proficiency. Some may gain them at F, some at B and some at S. You will get this on the way to A Kaleidoscope of Time. Bear in mind not all characters have more than 2 costumes (in particular, those that are new from DW7, SW3 or WO3, although there are exceptions such as Gracia).

 

If you get someone to S in Musou Battlefields, it will not count as having actually used the character and thus you will need to play them once in story mode to actually unlock their costumes and wallpaper.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/A6C.jpg

First Design (B)

Cleared a battlefield created using Musou Battlefields.

 

Just start the mode, pick a level, randomly change someone's text, then go and beat the level quickly.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/5BB.jpg

First Forge (B)

Upgraded a weapon using Weapon Fusion.

 

Talk to the weapons dealer at the base and his second option is weapon creation. It works the same as in previous Warriors Orochi games i,e pick your base weapon, pick your second weapon, select which attributes to move over, then hit :start: and choose yes to finish.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/6A0.jpg

First Purchase (B)

Purchased a weapon.

 

The weapons dealer at the base sells weapons based on your story progress. At Chapter 1/2, he sells up to 2 star weapons and joke/unique weapons. At Chapter 3 he sells 3 star weapons. After Chapter 3 he sells 4 star weapons. Buy any one weapon for the trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/2AC.jpg

Joining Hands (B)

Cleared a stage using either online play or 2-player mode.

 

You can either play online in Musou Battlefields or get a second controller/person to play a level with you for this trophy. Unfortunately the weapons one player picks up does not carry to the other player so there's no farming shortcut there any more.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/8EC.jpg

Reaching Beyond (B)

Purchased a weapon using crystals.

 

The weapons dealer sells joke/unique weapons for 20k+ gems and 2-4 crystals. These weapons start with a low attack but get a higher final bonus attack than 4 star weapons at max compatibility. Just buy one for any character for the trophy.

The Mead of Life (B)

Held a party.

 

The party NPC (lower right of the base) allows you to hold parties, which make all other currently playable officers gain friendliness towards the officer you're currently running around as (you can change this without changing your team for battle). At first he will let you hold one for ~7k which gains 25 friendliness towards the other officers. After Chapter 1 he will open one for ~13-17k that gains 50 friendliness. After Chapter 2 he opens the next one for ~25k which is 90 friendliness. After Chapter 3 he opens the final one which is a targeted drinking session with a single officer of your choice for 3k, which gains 150 friendliness. Hold any one of these parties and you will get the trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/4E0.jpg

Firm Bonds (B)

Raised the bonds of one pair of officers to its maximum.

 

You gain friendliness with other officers by:

 

A) Going into battle with them - Your team mates gain friendliness towards each other, as well as all playable characters that appear as NPCs in that battle.

B) Completing a mission they offer you - Before starting a stage, you can choose a mission (second option at the stage info screen), and if you're successful, your party gains friendliness towards that officer. If you fail, you lose friendliness!

C) Parties - Either private or open.

 

When your bar reaches the 1/3rd mark (approx 325 friendliness) and turns red, you must take your character and play a level with that other character (or a level with them as an NPC) in order to get the meter to go beyond 1/3rd. You must do this again when it turns yellow at 2/3rd (likely another 325). When it's maxed, it will turn green, the character's portrait will gain a yellow background and says MAX in the lower right. When you have max friendliness between any 2 officers, the trophy will unlock.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/358.jpg

Experienced Controller (B)

Used all mountable siege weapons.

 

There are 5 different siege weapons you can ride. They appear in more than just these levels but here's some of the ones you can find them in.

 

Ride all of the following at least once for the trophy:

 

Arbalest (arrow chain gun) - prologue The Slaying of the Hydra, Chapter 1 Battle of Tetorigawa, Chapter 2 Chaos at Tetorigawa

Cannon (rapid fire cannonballs) - Chapter 3 Battle of Osaka Castle, Chapter 3 Defense of Jieting

Catapult (there are 2 versions, one mobile, one fixed) - fixed is in Chapter 1 Battle of Tetorigawa, mobile is in Chapter 1 Battle of Yi Ling Redux

Juggernaut - Chapter 1 Battle of Tetorigawa, Chapter 2 Chaos at Tetorigawa

Laser Cannon - Chapter 2 Battle of Luoyang, Chapter 3 Battle of Hu Lao Gate, Chapter 4 The Slaying of the Hydra (the 9 star version)

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/9F7.jpg

Musou Fighter (B)

Achieved 1000 K.O.s.

 

You can get this in almost any level without trying. Unlocks as soon as you get the 1000th kill during the stage.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/150.jpg

Blinding Speed (B)

Cleared a stage in under 5 minutes.

 

There aren't too many levels you can do this one in but the earliest is the first level in Chapter 1, Battle of Ueda Castle. You need only run diagonally through the centre to meet Wang Yuanji, then run south to kill Yuan Shao, then run along the bottom and up through the centre to kill Dong Zhuo and you will be under 3 minutes even with the default horse. I did this with level 20 people with 3 star weapons on Easy mode so if you have Red Hare or more powerful weapons/characters, there won't be any problems.

 

Another good level is Chapter 4 Susano's Last Stand. You need to run straight ahead, kill the officer that spawns when the gate closes, then wait for all the dialogue to end and the gate will open. Run around the edge of the map to Susanoo and kill him and you'll be well under 5 minutes.

 

Here's a video of the above level:

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/6EC.jpg

Dance of the Blade (B)

Successfully performed a combo of 1000 or more.

 

Any character with a decently long ranged weapon or a good Musou should be able to get this easily but some easier methods are: Wang Yuanji's square string into a crowd, Kaguya's musou, Sun Shang Xiang's Type Action (:r1:), or Shuten Doji's C1. Tack on a triple attack and you'll get this no problem. If for some reason you're struggling with it at endgame, Almighty+Burst+Lightning will get it for you in no time.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/6C3.jpg

Overwhelming Victory (B)

Obtained over 10,000 EXP in a single battle.

 

As long as you're diligent about getting lots of officer and peon kills, you will get this as you progress through the game.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/D11.jpg

Blinding Light (B)

Used a True Triple Attack.

 

When the blue bar below your health is maxed, hit :l2: + :r2: to activate the Triple Attack and get your trophy. It fills up based on your combo, so wade into a crowd and go crazy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/CEB.jpg

Challenger (B)

Successfully completed a mission.

 

As mentioned in Firm Bonds you can choose missions during the stage info screen (second option). Generally they will be easy (green banner) and be something like "Get 600 kills and 3 officer kills" or "Get 300 kills within 10 minutes" or "Get 4 officer kills in 8 minutes". They may also be Normal (gray) or Hard (red), which generally are "While maintaining 60% health, without using a Musou action get 700 kills", or "Without using a musou action, get 4 officer kills in 7 minutes". Normal/Hard will always require no musou use (this is all :r1: Type Actions, Wonder class dash cancels and obviously Musou itself).

 

Simply accept any mission, fulfil the requirements, clear the level and you will get this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/F85.jpg

Perfect Partner (B)

Raised compatibility of a weapon to maximum.

 

Weapon compatibility (the bar below the weapon's picture) goes up with kills. As it goes up, so does its attack. Get it to max on one character and you'll have your trophy. The best way to raise it is to have Gyuki at S proficiency on your team and, if possible, have the Harmony attribute on your weapon. Then just go to any level such as Chapter 3's Rescue at Yiling and kill kill kill. With Gyuki and Harmony+10, you should max out after around 4000 kills. Of course, there's no need to really farm this. Just play with the character a lot and you will get it eventually.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/F60.jpg

Grand Purchase (B)

Purchased a weapon that cost over 10,000 gems.

 

Generally only joke/unique weapons cost this much from the dealer, though a highly decked out 4 star weapon might cost this much as well. Just purchase any one weapon that costs over 10,000 and you will have your trophy.

Secret Trophies

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/6EA.jpg

Peak of Performance (G)(H)

Cleared all stages at Chaos difficulty.

 

Chaos mode is quite easy if you're equipped for it. Early on before you have good weapons, you're going to want to use a couple of the more broken characters until you can find the super powered attributes to buff them up - Lu Bu, Orochi X, Susanoo, Cai Wenji (especially on horse), or Xu Huang are good. You will want to be at least level 35 with the Chimera Shell item to ensure that you don't die in one hit. Once you start seeing gold attributes drop (~8 stars in Hard, ~6 stars in Chaos), then here's a build that will make Chaos a JOKE for almost any character:

 

Wind +10 - make charge attacks unblockable.

Echo (gold) - make your attacks give off a small explosion when they connect.

Brilliance (gold) - combined with the above, makes all attacks unblockable and explode.

Also equip one of your people with the Red Hare Saddle.

 

If you can, add on:

 

Drain +10 - To get back life with your attacks for when you randomly get hit.

Brave + 10 - Bonus damage vs officers.

Slash + 10 - Chance of one hit peon kills or just huge damage bonus

and then fill in the rest with whatever you like. Initially you will want Harmony to get the weapon to a high damage bonus but once that is finished, I tend to like Agility (too high can be a problem for some characters, experiment to your liking), Reach (doesn't work for everyone though) or Cavalier.

 

Stay on your horse and just strafe around enemies with :l1: held down and mash :square: attacks. If your character has decent horse attacks (solid hitbox, focused on one side), they will be nigh unstoppable. If you get knocked off your horse, either ignore everyone to get back on or just use a triple attack to clear out the crowd so you can get back to it. If your character has good melee attacks then you can just use those instead (Orochi X's C4 is incredibly strong, for example). Kit out 2 people with this and your 3rd can simply be a low level character you are farming attributes for to use as an alternate when you're bored of the other two. If you play carefully and defensively you can clear levels with just 1 person and farm attributes on 2 low level characters at once. Once you have a weapon with all these attributes at max, a character can be as low as level 35-40 and will be able to solo 9 star levels on Chaos.

 

One point to note: Archers in Chaos mode are no joke. They crowd together but AWAY from the melee peons, so you will constantly be getting shot at despite blowing through crowds. On foot you will have to use creative dodging to get through them but on horse you can simply run to them and scatter/kill most of them with a few attacks, then pick them off one by one as needed.

 

When you've cleared every stage (story stages, including pre and post modified versions and all Gaiden stages), you will have your trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/E72.jpg

Musou Millionaire (G)(H)

Gathered over 900,000 gems.

 

You normally earn gems just from clearing levels. You can earn more by having the attribute Guerdon on your weapons, spamming Triple Attack (the attribute Confluence helps here) or having someone with the team skill Bounty - Yuan Shao, Goemon Ishikawa and Yoshimoto Imagawa have this. However, you will definitely earn this through the course of normal play. You generally get anywhere from 10-15000 just from clearing a level on Chaos with a decent amount of kills. The game will keep track for you (you can hold 6 digits worth of money, though), so feel free to spend like crazy on weapons/weapon forging/parties.

In a Broken World (S)(H)

Cleared Story Mode with NORMAL ending.

 

The first stage of Chapter 4, The Slaying of the Hydra, is available from the start of the game but is a daunting 9 star difficulty. Come back and clear it and the level directly next to it (Into the Fire) when you think you're up to it and you will get the NORMAL ending. In "Into the Fire" you will be facing 8 Orochis (1-2 at a times but they aren't too aggressive, so you shouldn't have much trouble even if you try this level earlier than normal.

Land of Peace (S)(H)

Cleared Story Mode with GOOD ending.

 

See The Fated Place.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/8C4.jpg

The Fated Place (S)(H)

Cleared Story Mode with TRUE ending.

 

When you've cleared Chapter 3, you'll unlock a new path in Chapter 4, and there will be a branch. The top branch leads to the True Ending and the bottom branch leads to the good ending.

 

To unlock the top branch, you will need to unlock every playable character minus the Orochi group (Orochi, Orochi X, Kiyomori Taira, Sun Wukong, Ne Zha, Susanoo) and then clear the level before it (Orochi's End) again. This will make the top branch playable and clearing the level in that branch will unlock the final level, World's End. Clear that level and you will watch the true ending and unlock the rest of the playable characters.

A Warrior of Wealth (S)(H)

Gathered over 500,000 gems.

 

See Musou Millionaire.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/DB4.jpg

Noble Warrior (S)(H)

Gathered over 100 crystals.

 

Crystals have a chance of dropping from officers and a much higher chance if killed with triple attack. You can only hold 99 of these so be sure to use some on the joke/unique weapons from the weapons dealer. You will know you got one if it says "Get GEM" after you kill them.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/D88.jpg

Shopping Expert (S)(H)

Purchased over 100 weapons.

 

You will likely get this on the way to amassing 4 star weapons for everyone but if not, just buy random weapons to forge until you get this.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/A4B.jpg

Otherworld Extravagance (S)(H)

Held over 100 parties.

 

This applies to all parties, open or private. If you don't have this by the end, just spam the private ones since they are the cheapest at 3000 gems.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/325.jpg

Master of Battle (S)(H)

Cleared any stage without taking any damage.

 

Either of the levels mentioned in Speedy Warrior are good - Chapter 1 Battle of Ueda Castle or Chapter 4 Susano'o's Last Stand. Use easy mode and save often, as you may get hit without taking any noticeable damage. The best way to track it is by the rumble of the Dualshock. If it rumbles, quit and load.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/BA5.jpg

Musou Warrior (S)(H)

Achieved 3000 K.O.s.

 

There's a few good levels for this. The Prologue and the 9 star version of it are good because the enemies around the Arblests/cannons respawn infinitely, as does Kiyomori and his crowd of enemies. Another alternative is the level I mentioned for A Kaleidoscope of Time, which is Chapter 3's Rescue at Yiling). You can also earn this in a created level in Musou Battlefields. Just like the 1000 kill trophy, this unlocks as soon as you hit 3000.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/CDE.jpg

Mission Master (S)(H)

Completed more than 10 missions in one battle.

 

Not many levels allow you to do this. Chapter 1 Battle of Odawara Castle Redux gives you 10 if you do not have any of the characters that appear as NPCs in the stage on your team but it's much easier to do Chapter 4's World's End as it gives you more than 10 missions no matter who you play.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/5C4.jpg

The Flame of Hope (B)(H)

Cleared Chapter 1 in Story Mode.

 

Story related. When have you cleared all of the levels in Chapter 1, you will get this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/2A2.jpg

A Hidden Smile (B)(H)

Cleared Chapter 2 in Story Mode.

 

Story related. When you have cleared all of the levels in Chapter 2, you will get this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/A4A.jpg

Unwavering Hope (B)(H)

Cleared Chapter 3 in Story Mode.

 

Story related. When you clear all of the levels in Chapter 3, you will get this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/64D.jpg

Changing the Past (B)(H)

Cleared all 10 Redux stages.

 

There are 10 story stages that will be altered after clearing a Gaiden stage directly below them - You will know you've found one when part of the way through the level you see a small cut-in of a playable officer dying. After unlocking and clearing the Gaiden stage, you will have changed the past in a such a way as to keep that officer alive. Once you've cleared all 10 of the new modified stages, you will get this trophy. If you're dedicated about talking to people at camp, you won't miss any of these on your way to the TRUE Ending.

 

A list of the story levels that have modified versions can be found here.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/27B.jpg

Banner of Victory (B)(H)

Defeated the Hydra.

 

Story related. In Chapter 2: Battle of Luoyang, you will fight a single Hydra head with the cannon. When you kill it, you will get this trophy.

 

http://www.ps3trophies.org/images/trophies/1333/882.jpg

Traversing Time (B)(H)

Returned to the past using Kaguya's power.

 

Story related. When you have cleared the Prologue, you will get this trophy.

Looking for a full stage list, item list, and attribute list in English so I can update everything!

 

By attributes do you mean the skills? Like Ice, Agility, Might, etc.

 

I have a lot of them, but not sure how many there are total. Someone else might get the list for you but if not, I'll help out.

For the attributes/skills, I really only need the ones I refer to in the guide, which are the ones that increase proficiency/weapon compatibility gain, and the ones that affect drop rates for weapons/items/gems. I would also like the name of the native skill that Imagawa/Goemon/Yuan Shao have.

 

Ultimately, it's the item list and stage list that are most needed. I think most of the stages are actually the same as what I have in English (I crossmatched with guides from previous DW games), but the new ones are the issue.

 

Also, I think some of the items actually work with more people than I have listed. I haven't kept up with the JP wiki, but I should go check that sometime.

Seal to increase weapon compatibility is Harmony.

Seal to increase proficiency is Industry.

Seal to occasionally drop a weapon box upon a killed officer is Prosperity.

Seal to occasionally drop an item box upon a killed officer is Providence.

Seal to occasionally drop a mini EXP scroll upon a killed officer is Wisdom.

Seal to occasionally get gems to drop upon a killed officer is Guerdon.

 

Goemon's skill is Bounty. If the others have it too, then that's it.

 

I haven't completed the game, but here is a list of items I currently have:

 

Phoenix Wing - Increases Life Gauge max

Dragon's Spleen - Increases Musou Gauge max

Lion's Fang - Increases Attack

Chimera Shell - Increases Defense

Charm of Alacrity - Increases Speed

Spear of Sacrifice - Significantly increases Attack, but lowers Defense

Shield of Sacrifice - Significantly increases Defense, but lowers Attack

Mystic's Brace - Proficiency increases more easily

Amulet of Protection - Decreases damage taken from enemy officers

Tengjia Armor - Decreases damage taken from enemy projectile attacks

 

I think that's it. lol

Sleeping Taiga - Thanks! They love to keep the 4 chinese gods in all these games, but I guess they don't bother keeping their names in translation all the time. Let me know when you have the rare items too! They really aren't hard to get, as long as you have 1 or 2 favored strong people. Xu Huang is SUPER buff early on because his S string picks up enemies so they can't hit him back.

Charm of Alacrity goes up to +20. I just found a +17. I can provide a screenshot if you'd like.

 

紐帯数珠 (String of beads) = Prayer Beads

無影具足 (Shadowless armor) = Spirit Armor

活丹勾玉 (Brown Coal Magatama) = Musou Magatama

流転羽衣 (Heavenly Robe of Change) = Raiment of Unrest

鉄甲手 (Iron Gloves) = Iron Gauntlets

無双鎧 (Musou Armor) = Musou Armor

八咫鏡 (Yata Mirror) = Eight Hand Mirror

金剛手甲 (Vajra Gloves) = Gold Gauntlets

夜叉面具 (Yasha Mask) = Demon Mask

相殺帷子 (Balancing Kimono) = Vestment of Voidance

吸生小手 (Vampire Gloves) = Gauntlets of Vitality

吸活小手 (Absorb Gloves) = Gauntlets of Malice

薬活法書 (Art of Medicine) = Tome of Medicine

発破伝書 (Art of Explosives) = True Vision

頑鉄甲 (Tough Armor) = Iron Armor

脱兎脚絆 (Rabbit Leggings) = Rabbitskin Leggings

孫子兵法 (Art of War) = Sun Tzu's Art of War

七星帯 (Seven Star Belt) = Pleiades Belt

松風鐙 (Matsukaze Saddle) = Matsukaze Saddle

赤兎鐙 (Red Hare Saddle) = Red Hare Saddle

熊鐙 (Bear Saddle) = Bear Saddle

象鐙 (Elephant Saddle) = Elephant Saddle

 

And a couple of errors for the English version.

Rabbitskin Leggings are found on Battle of Yangping, Chapter 3.

Pleiades Belt is found on Changban, Chapter 3.

 

 

There you go. =D

So, as far as the bonds/friendship goes, you really only need to care about the bonds between characters that unlock stages/more characters, correct? Because, for each character, they have their own relationship measure with EVERY OTHER character, which, without doing the math, has to be several hundreds of combinations.

 

As far as working toward the Platinum though, you only need to worry about a specific set of groups though, right? And do the "Special Relationships" matter at all? Each character has a sect of 3-4 special or I guess, recommended relationships. Like for Kunoichi, it's Yukimura, Kai, Ma Dai, and Ayane. Anything special about these?

Veritas - That's correct. You only need the specified groups of relationships to unlock levels. You can work towards them one at a time, or just hold a ton of general parties to get there quicker, but money's a bit tight early on. I would advance the story with normal party, and then after every stage use all the money on parties. Then when I got the people to the required friendliness level, I'd take them and play a Gaiden on easy or something to get the bond to the next level and unlock the target stage.

 

Khelthros - Thanks! It looks like I just translated literally from the Japanese, but they were actually Chinese names. I'm terrible with level names so I don't know one from the other by name only... I took out the kanji for all levels in the item list, but I'd like a list of the new WO3 stages for the database post when you or anyone else gets that far too.

 

Also, I think I need the English name for some of the gold skills - particularly burst and convergence.
