Level 11 Weapon Acquisition[]

  • Stage: Skirmish at Xia Pi
  • Restrictions: No bodyguards, no items
  • Requirements: Defeat Cao Xing on the first encounter before he flees, re-encounter him afterwards for the unique dialogue message (without entering the top left of the castle map), and get 100 KOs.
Strategy[]
  1. Defeat Cao Xing before he flees. Using Xiahou Dun's link combo of repeating his normal attack string up to his 5th input on Cao Xing may be able to frame-lock him enough to defeat him consistently enough as he will not fight back.
  2. Go to the top right corner of the castle via jumping over wooden boxes in the middle river afterwards.
  3. Xiahou Dun will say something when he meets with Cao Xing after he re-appears. This needs to be triggered before Yuan Shu arrives (Cao Xing does not need to be defeated right away when this triggers).
  4. Receive 100 KOs. The top-left of the castle can now be accessed without losing the weapon once the prior dialogue triggers as you can safely score the KOs needed and pick up some items to boost your performance and/or survivability.

Note: Apparently if you leave the middle river and land on the top left side of the castle before triggering the dialogue with Cao Xing, you will lose the weapon.

Level 11 Weapon Acquisition[]

  • Stage: Ambush at He Fei
  • Requirements: Keep all four top castle ally Guard Troop Captains alive until Zhou Tai appears. Achieve a 300 K.O. count.
Strategy[]

Yue Jin's morale drops VERY fast. Also, the Wu troops' morale will raise each time Sun Quan orders an attack. The only way to prevent Yue Jin's seemingly imminent defeat is for you to kill enemy peons quickly. Whenever you reach multiples of 50s in KOs, your morale will raise for sure. So, whenever Yue Jin is in trouble, drop whatever you're doing and help him until he tells you to go back to defend the castle. It is important to find the balance between killing peons and chasing officers, because you need to kill the officers to pass the stage within 15 minutes.

  1. Bottom left (reach 100 KOs and kill Ling Tong).
  2. He Fei castle front (reach 150 KOs).
  3. Top right and bottom right gates (reach 250 KOs and kill Gan Ning and Xu Sheng).
  4. He Fei castle front (reach 300 KOs and kill Lu Meng).
  5. Level 11 message.
  6. Reach 350 KOs.
  7. Go to bottom of the map and kill Zhou Tai to end the stage.
Alternate Strategy[]
  1. Equip peacock urn, turtoise amulet, herbal remedy, secret of the orbs, meat bun sack, war drum, vorpal/fire(recommended)/ice orb, and shadow sattle
  2. Kill Ling Tong and 100 of his men
  3. Go to Xu Sheng and kill 50 of his men
  4. By this time Gan Ning should be there, go kill him and 50 of his men.
  5. Go to the castle front and defend it, kill Lu meng, and there are more than 100 men there....
  6. If you get it, save and quit, then set it to beginner (don't wanna risk it) and kill Zhou Tai.

Fourth Weapon Acquisition[]

  • Stage: Battle of He Fei (Wei)
  • Location: One of the islands in the southeast.
  • Requirements: Defeat nine Generals/Sub-Generals or defeat 700 people. Every few enemies the enemy soldiers will comment: you get the valuable item report when Sun Quan comments that "One man struck fear in my entire army by himself!". This must be done before Cao Ren arrives.
Strategy[]
  • If you have a Red Hare Harness, equip it. First defeat Pan Zhang's two sub-officers, killing troops as you go. After, kill Pan Zhang. Then, ride down to the bottom-left corner, where Lu Meng's sub-officers are, and kill them. If Lu Meng has not started retreating after you kill the subs, kill him too. If he has, do not worry. Next, ride up to the top-right corner, where your supply base is in danger from Zhu Zhi's subs. Kill them, then Taishi Ci's subs, then Zhu Zhi. After this, the weapon should appear, followed by Sun Quan's comment of "One man struck fear in my entire army by himself!". However, do not collect the weapon yet, as Gan Ning would have appeared by now. Go and kill him (and Dong Xi) before he kills Cao Cao. Then get the weapon and continue normally.

  • Requirements: Defeat Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang (Zhang Jiao's brothers) without killing any Gate Captains and without losing any of your own. Because the supply team will appear at the Northwest entry point and move East it is suggested that you equip either a fast horse or a good Speed Scroll and kill Zhang Bao before killing Zhang Liang. After you defeat Zhang Liang cross the bridge to the North of his original position and head straight for the supply team (hurry, you don’t have much time). It is worth noting that after you get the weapon He Jin will probably already be in danger, attack and defeat Zhang Jiao as soon as you have the weapon.

Level 11 Weapon Acquisition[]

  • Stage: Village Encounter
  • Restrictions: No bodyguards
  • Requirement: Defeat all generals, including defeating Dian Wei twice, without having over 3 supply captains retreat and/or having the plundering cause heavy damage to the fields via the battle messages.
Strategy[]
  1. Defeat Yu Jin before defeating his supply troop captain. Doing the opposite will cause Yu Jin to enter Hyper Mode, making him harder to defeat even if you are using the AI glitch due to his damage output.
  2. Defeat Dian Wei's three supply troop captains, then defeat Dian Wei before he defeats the village defense force.
  3. Defeat Li Dian before defeating his supply troop captain.
  4. If you've defeated Dian Wei fast enough, he may appear sooner than Yue Jin. Hold off the retreat path of his supply captains via the northern bridge of the western-central section of Mt. Jie Ting's map, and defeat them before defeating Dian Wei.
    1. Even though you are possibly allowed to ignore Dian Wei's supply captain units this time around, it can still be wise to defeat them with the aforementioned tactic since they travel along the said bridge.
  5. Defeat Yue Jin as soon as he appears, then defeat his supply troop captain. If done right, you can also choose to leave Dian Wei alone if your overall morale is high enough so you can charge straight for Yue Jin and his supply troop before Dian Wei to defeat the second supply unit.
  6. Dian Wei will appear for the third time and will instantly retreat alongside his supply captains; cut them off at the north-western entry point before the captains retreat in order to defeat them, thus Dian Wei can be left to his own devices.
  7. Defeat Man Chong before the disaster spreads when he appears. You can ignore his supply captain this time around.
  8. Level 11 message.

Note 1: It's okay to let them start plundering. Just make sure you kill the officer and his supply captain before the disaster spreads. It's okay to let the three supply captains who appear with the third Dian Wei flee. Just make sure you kill Man Chong as soon as he appears and/or before he starts causing more damage to the fields.

  • All generic officer supply captains will always head for the north-eastern entry point; cut off any supply captains retreating towards that area in order to defeat them on time if you must. Dian Wei's second set of supply captains however, will head to the north-western entry point instead; cut them off via the western-mountain's northern bridge so they are forced to fight you, allowing you to take them out effectively.

Note 2: It is wise to make sure that you defeat Dian Wei the first time he's on the map as soon as possible after taking out his supply captains, this is due to the fact that the time it takes for the other generals and/or Dian Wei's appearances on the map are independent of one another, allowing you to focus on either one of them more effectively (e.g. taking out Dian Wei quickly so he can reappear sooner than Yue Jin the second time, and so forth). On that note, both Yue Jin and Man Chong appear in the stage at set intervals; defeating Dian Wei as soon as possible will allow you to confront Dian Wei's supply captains before dealing with the incoming generic generals and their captains as well.

  • Stage: Battle of Jie Ting
  • Requirements: Surround Ma Su's camp by defeating all his officers and Ma Su. Once that is done, wait for Shu reinforcements then defeat all the officers and generals on the field.
    • Note: Since the requirements for Zhang He's weapon lead to victory once you defeat Zhuge Liang, there won't be the usual "(Officer name) has gained the ultimate weapon (Weapon name)" in the battle log ticker. However, when checking the post-stage recap, you'll see that you still got it.

Level 11 Weapon Acquisition[]

  • Stage: Pursuit at Mt. Qi
  • Restrictions: No bodyguards, no items
  • Requirements: Defeat Wei Yan while he's running away from you. Or, after Wei Yan stops retreating. Defeat Guan Xing and Zhang Bao. Then achieve a 100 KO count, not before.
Strategy[]
  1. Right at the beginning, Wei Yan will retreat to attract Zhang He. Follow him past the base, and the base door will close.
  2. Wei Yan will continue to retreat past the north gate. Do not follow him through. Let the door close in front of you.
  3. Way too many archers will appear on the way, ignore them all (Koei is trying to make it look like the place where Zhang He died in the novel).
  4. Defeat Guan Xing. He'll roll boulders down the hill. Move up close to the right hillside and you won't get hit.
  5. After defeating Guan Xing, go back to the north gate. Zhang Bao will ambush you. Again ignore all archers on the way.
  6. Defeat Zhang Bao.
  7. Get 100 KOs.
  8. Level 11 message.

Note: If all your allies died, you'll get a message that says that Zhang He is isolated. It is okay. It has been reported that you can also get the weapon if you manage to kill Wei Yan before he locks himself inside the north gate.

Do not defeat more than two generals near the castle or Lu Meng will appear and the "all siege weapons destroyed" message will not appear.
    • Note: In order to get Cao Ren's Level 10 Weapon, you must destroy Wu's first two siege ramps and two catapults before they can send in the second set. Only when Wu's first set of siege weapons are destroyed before the first of the second wave can spawn will Cao Ren say that all the siege weapons have been destroyed and you're ensured to get the weapon upon defeating Lu Meng. Regardless, time is of the essence as a fast mount is heavily recommended.

Strategy[]

Before defeating both Han Dang and Gan Ning, do the following:

  1. Do not meet with Niu Jin.
  2. Seal Gan Ning and Han Dang's gates.
  3. Boost Niu Jin's morale to 8 stars (each 15 KOs by Cao Ren will boost Niu Jin's morale by 1 star).
  4. Afterwards, defeat Han Dang, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai's ambush and Zhou Yu's ambush within 10 minutes.
  5. Level 11 message.

Note: Defeating both Gan Ning and Han Dang will make Cao Ren meet Niu Jin automatically. One of them can be defeated first, but make sure the other one is alive when after completing the first step.

Strategy[]

It's better to increase Cao Pi's stats first and increase his inventory slots to hold four or more items. Having an orb and a strong bodyguard will be helpful. To increase the chances of success, players should first head up and defeat Wei Yan. Defeating him will make his sub-officers retreat and will reduce the chances of the enemy capturing the main camp. Then take the enemy checkpoint they use as supply line. Wait until the notice an enemy ambush unit has appeared then head up to the hill where the arbalest units are located. Defeat them, their position is in a square formation.

Level 11 Weapon Acquisition[]

  • Stage: Encounter at Yi Province
  • Restrictions: No bodyguards
  • Requirements: Go outside the castle into Cao Pi's army and Zhen Ji will defect to Cao Pi's army. Then, defeat all enemy generals and sub-generals except Yuan Xi, and achieve an 150 K.O. count. Or, do the opposite and stay inside the castle with Yuan Xi, and defeat every general and sub-general save for Cao Pi, and achieve an 150 K.O. count.
Strategy[]
  1. Join Cao Pi's army by exiting the castle at the beginning of the stage.
  2. After converting to the Wei army, go back into the castle right away. The castle will close, and a message says Zhen Ji will be isolated.
  3. Defeat all enemy officers and sub-officers except Yuan Xi.
  4. Get 150 KOs.
  5. Level 11 message.

Note: Getting isolated may not be a requirement. If you missed a sub-officer by accidentally killing his officer, you can get an extra 50 KOs to compensate for that.
