Base Game
Wen Yang is affiliated with the javelin in this title. When equipped with it, Wen Yang can perform the following unique attacks listed below.
- EX Attack 1:
: Does a quick arcing slash before hurling javelin up in the air. Enemies hit by the second attack will freeze momentarily before falling. It is made much stronger in Xtreme Legends. - EX Attack 2: : Instead of throwing the javelin while in mid-air, Wen Yang dives along its trajectory to perform a powerful thrusting motion. Introduced in Xtreme Legends.
- Musou Attack - Raging Billows (八十一騎; lit. "Eighty-One Horsemen"):
: Rushes at the enemy ranks with enough force to knock them back, throwing weapon forward near the end of the assault. Clears away foes in front of Wen Yang. - Alternate Musou Attack - Instant Flash (扇・逆鱗閃; lit. "Fan: Inverted Scales Flash"): R1 + : Performs a powerful thrust which leads to two separate motions. The first variation ends in another thrust if the first hit misses. If it successfully connects, Wen Yang will launch the enemy upward by throwing his javelin forward followed by another toss on the ground while in mid-air.
- Aerial Musou Attack - Gale Strike (風鱗撃; lit. "Wind Scales Attack"):
: Flips in the air before hurling javelin downward with enough force to radiate a shockwave on impact. - Rage Attack: Immediately slashes back and forth with each step continuously. Wen Yang then twirls his weapon shortly before throwing it like a boomerang at a great distance, with the sudden force emitting a great surge of energy.
- True Rage Attack: Upon performing 100 or more hits during a Rage attack, Wen Yang will swing his flaming weapon in an overhead arc while spinning repeatedly before striking left and right several times at the end of the attack sequence. Its motions mirror that of Zhao Yun's old Musou attack from past games.
