• Increased Enemy Damage and Attack Speed
• Blocking Attacks Drains Bravery
• Parry and Perfect Evade Windows are Smaller
• Enemies do not Drop Meat Buns

Difficulty Differences and Best Difficulty

Challenges Now Available

Switching to Ultimate Warrior difficulty also activates Challenges, which are an optional set of rules or objectives that players can accomplish for extra rewards.

Weapon Reforging Added to Shop

In the Post-Game, the Shop now offers Weapon Reforging, which allows you to transfer Weapon Traits or fuse weapons with the same name to strengthen them. Note that any weapon used as a material is lost forever.

Lu Bu Companion and Halberd Weapon

Beating the game once gives you the chance to unlock the dreaded Lu Bu as an available Companion during battle replays, and also makes his weapon type, the Halberd, available for purchase and use.
