Technique

Technique is a character type introduced in the Warriors Orochi series. Characters in this category are represented by the color yellow. Each character in this category has a special attack called an "Enhanced Strike". Basically, it is used during an attack string such as for charge attacks. During a normal attack, the player presses the special move button to activate the Enhanced Strike. When activated, the charge move is super-powered. Using the R1 button, players can use a small portion of the character's Musou to perform a special attack or a counter to break out of an opponent's combo.

If a player's team possess two or more technique characters, the final Musou in a Musou chain will activate the skill Absorb and will allow the character to restore Musou with each hit.

Warriors Orochi 3 removes the Enhanced Strike and instead includes a sidestep which leaves characters temporarily invincible as they perform the maneuver and critical hits against airborne enemies. The sidestep can also be used to perform a dash attack without needing to run.
