Dynasty Warriors
In the Dynasty Warriors games, Da Qiao fought with paper folding fans called "True Beauty". Like her sister, Da Qiao's attacks were rather weak, but fast. This allowed for her to battle effectively. The main things that set her style apart from her sister's were that Da Qiao's charge attacks were more focused around one-on-one battles, and were very effective as such. Da's best attacks for crowd clearing were the end of her normal moveset and her sixth charge attack. In Dynasty Warriors 5, Da Qiao's fourth weapon was heavy, which gave her a severe nerf by reducing her speed. To make up for this, though, she was given rather large bonuses in life, musou, attack, and defense. This gave her the potential to be one of the stronger fighters, if both of her fans managed to connect with the opponent simultaneously.

In Shin Sangoku Musou Multi Raid 2, her twin wands grant mobility for several acrobatic feats, and she can use them to project a magical seal that harms foes upon contact. The basic string of her new move set involves releasing medium-ranged fireballs with each swing as well as an enchanted shield that increases up to three depending on how much power is used to charge the attack up. The Xtreme Legends expansion of Dynasty Warriors 7 sees the return of the wands, albeit with some changes in the weapon's charge attacks to match the game's current fighting engine.
