How To Increase Ranks In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

by Scarlett Mar 15,2025

In the action RPG *Dynasty Warriors: Origins*, your rank—essentially your level—is crucial for success, especially when facing formidable foes like Lu Bu. Leveling up unlocks significant advantages, but it's not just about defeating enemies. Your rank is directly linked to weapon proficiency.

You begin with a level 1 sword. Progress isn't solely determined by enemy kills; it's about mastering your weapon. Experiment with various Battle Arts (special abilities) and diverse combo attacks, going beyond basic three- or four-hit sequences. This diverse approach significantly boosts weapon proficiency.

Increased weapon proficiency directly translates to rank increases. Leveling up grants boosts to health, attack power, defense, and other bonuses. These bonuses include increased Bravery (allowing more Battle Arts use) and access to new skill trees for further stat improvements.

While you start with a sword, *Dynasty Warriors: Origins* offers nine weapons to master. Each weapon possesses unique properties and ideal combat scenarios. Don't be afraid to switch weapons mid-battle to maximize experience gain for each. Experimentation is key to maximizing your rank.

*Dynasty Warriors: Origins* is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
