Dynasty Warriors Origins Best Weapon Traits

This is a list of the best weapon traits ranked in Dynasty Warriors: Origins. See what the best weapon traits to get are in this guide!

Best Weapon Traits in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

Best Weapon Traits
1 Chance of Not Draining the Bravery Gauge When Activating a Battle Art
2 Boosts Musou Attack
3 Boosts Musou Gauge
4 Increase Nectar Water Drops
5 Chance of Generating a Whirlwind When Attacking
6 Extends the Input Window For Parries
7 Increases the Drop Rate of Weapons

The best weapon trait you can obtain is Chance of Not Draining the Bravery Gauge When Activating a Battle Art.

This trait gives you the opportunity to perform Battle Arts without consuming Bravery Points, enabling you to conserve points for other crucial Battle Arts, especially Special Battle Arts used against an enemy's Dangerous Attack.

Best Battle Arts to Use

1. Chance of Not Draining the Bravery Gauge When Activating a Battle Art

Dynasty Warriors Origins Grants a Chance of Not Draining the Bravery Gauge

This is the best weapon trait to have as it provides a form of insurance when performing Battle Art skills, especially those that cost more bravery points. It allows you to conserve remaining points, which you can then allocate to more reactive abilities like Special Battle Arts, ensuring flexibility and effectiveness in combat.

2. Boosts Musou Attack Strength

Highest Possible Boost Percentage: 20%

One of the best traits to acquire is Boosts Musou Attack Strength, as its 20% boost ceiling greatly amplifies the power of your Musou Attacks. With their wide area of effect, this trait makes them even more devastating on the battlefield.

Pairing this with an accessory like the Red Dragon's Talon ensures you can perform Musou Attacks at a near-constant pace, maintaining relentless pressure on your enemies.

3. Boosts Musou Gauge

Highest Possible Boost Percentage: 10%

Boosts Musou Gauge is a trait that increases the rate of accumulation on your Musou Gauge, enabling quicker casts of War God's Rage. Pairing this with the Boosts Musou Attack Strength trait maximizes its effectiveness, as it allows for more frequent and sustained Musou Attacks during combat.

4. Increase Nectar Water Drops

The Increase Nectar Water Drops trait is valuable to have, as it boosts the chances of enemies dropping Nectar Water, a resource essential for recovering bravery points. It becomes especially useful on higher difficulties, where managing your Bravery is crucial for defeating foes.

5. Extends the Input Window for Parries

Extends the Input Window for Parries is another good trait to have on your weapon, as it provides a larger reaction window for blocking attacks, making it easier to successfully execute a Parry.

This trait will be beneficial against more aggressive enemies encountered later in the game, so consider picking it up to enhance your defensive capabilities.

6. Chance of Generating a Whirlwind When Attacking

Although this only grants a small chance of summoning a whirlwind, the sheer frequency of attacks ensures that one will eventually appear on the battlefield. While not an essential trait, it remains beneficial in situations where you may feel overwhelmed by hordes of enemies by providing extra crowd control.

7. Increases the Drop Rate of Weapons

We recommend applying the Increase Weapon Drop Chance trait only to weapons you're planning to farm for. This trait becomes particularly valuable in post-game content when reforging weapons, as it helps you gather the necessary duplicates more efficiently.
