Fighting Style

In Dynasty Warriors 6, Liu Bei turns into a quick combo character. His dual swords allow him to juggle and corner opponents faster than before, turning him into a good offensive fighter. His long combos can quickly fill up the Renbu gauge, something he arguably relies on to deal more damage. Unfortunately, his defense continues to suffer and he lacks attacks that help deal with massive enemy crowds from all directions. Therefore, he is best at solo dueling as he can finish off an enemy general relatively quickly.

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

Unique Triple Rush 2: If Liu Bei is paired up with Ieyasu Tokugawa and Joan of Arc, the three of them will be able to do a unique triple rush attack against the enemy.

The first energy wave is released via diving cross slash and the second one gets sent out by doing a backflip slash with both swords.
