WO3 Yashio'ori

The Yashio'ori (八塩折) is a special weapon invented by Taigong Wang in Warriors Orochi 3. It uses Shuten Dōji's power to fire pure energy beams, neutralizing the Hydra. With Kaguya's time-traveling abilities, the coalition used it to defeat Hydra.

Because the Hydra no longer exists in Ultimate, the Yashi'ori had fulfilled its purpose and isn't seen beyond Orochi's death in the Good Ending.

Yashiori, a wine mentioned in Japanese mythology, was used by Susano'o to subdue Yamata no Orochi's eight heads. It's made by a cycle of distilling raw materials, adding ingredients, and draining them, with a low alcohol content. Some argue it resembles a non-alcoholic water-based sweet wine.

Strategy[]

Though it shares the same role as any siege weapon in battle, the functions of the Yashio'ori work differently in that it has two gauges for different attacks. Holding Square will cause it to fire small energy bullets like a machine gun. Its second and most powerful attack is a huge laser beam activated by pressing Circle once. This mode of attack is best reserved for the Hydra since using it will cause the laser's energy gauge to deplete momentarily.

The Yashio'ori, despite its durability, is vulnerable to damage, necessitating swift fireball shooting. If confronting Hydra without clearing Chapter 3, only one Yashio'ori will be utilized.
