Fighting Style

Fighting Style
Diao Chan fights with a pair of maces (more accurately known as melon hammers) that offer minimal range and low attack power, though her moves are quick and may sometimes include dainty kicks for good measure. Being one of the fastest characters in the game, players will have to rely on hit-and-run tactics when facing up against stronger foes. Her Musou attack, while not necessarily all that devastating, should be reserved for escaping dangerous situations.

Warriors Orochi

 * Modified Attacks
 * Charge Attack 1: undefined: Functions similarly to its base game incarnation, but can inflict elemental damage. The sequel removes that trait entirely, though it can be replicated by wielding a weapon with the Almighty skill.
 * Charge Attack 6:     undefined: Functions similarly to its base game incarnation, but can no longer inflict elemental damage like it did before.

Fighting Style
When controlled by the AI in Dynasty Warriors 5, most of Diao Chan's charge attacks will be imbued with the fire element by default.

In Warriors Orochi, Diao Chan is considered one of the best characters in the game due to her first charge having the capacity for instantly clearing enemy crowds and defeating officers through one or two uses so long as her weapon has the right combination of elemental attributes. As a teammate, her unique buff can help lessen the amount of Musou needed by other characters to pull off their own special attacks. Many players often pair her up with officers who have devastating specials like Mitsunari Ishida and Ieyasu Tokugawa.
 * -|Dynasty Warriors 6=

Base Game
Diao Chan is affiliated with the chain whip in this title. Despite sharing the same moveset with Zhen Ji, some of her attacks have different traits or effects.

 * Grapple Charge: L1 + undefined: Angles whip to hit foe from a low position. If the attack successfully hits, Diao Chan will wrap her whip on the enemy's foot and toss them high into the air.

 * Special Attacks
 * Musou Attack: : Does an empowered version of the first to third Renbu string repeatedly.

 * True Musou Attack: Low Health + : Similar to the regular Musou attack, but adds the fire attribute to each hit.
 * Special Move - True Speed: L2: Allows the user to continuously perform running attacks while receiving a slight boost in attack power and hit speed. Also increases speed of horse if activated while riding. Upon activating the move, Diao Chan holds the first few sections of her whip to the front while sprinting forward at high speed. She also gains an innate lightning element under the effects of this move, allowing her to electrocute foes with her attacks.
 * True Speed Attack: True Speed + : Swings whip back and forth in a criss-crossing manner.

Fighting Style
In Dynasty Warriors 6, Diao Chan's change in weaponry means she now has the capacity to clear enemy crowds with ease. Despite having good coverage with her attacks, she has the weakest damage output among all the playable female characters. To compensate, her Musou stat is the highest when fully maximized.

When controlled by the AI in Strikeforce, Diao Chan's attacks will be imbued with the yang element by default.

Fighting Style
Her Online Z counterpart has some notable differences in her personal moveset compared to those used by chain whip wielders.
