1. Introduction (INT10)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello. My name is Kevin and this is my eighth FAQ, on the Wu character Sun
Quan. To tell the truth I've never been a real fan of him, but now that he
looks so cool I felt like playing him. He's nothing special, but as I said,
he's cool. This is my first experience playing him, and it's quite strange
that, despite being the most important playable Wu character, has no Musou
Mode.
Oh yes, before we start, FYI I copied this FAQ directly from my Guan Yu FAQ
in DW5. If you see Guan Yu or DW5 anywhere in this FAQ notify me and I will
destroy them.
NOTE: Email me only for these reasons:
* This FAQ is on a website other than the ones listed in the Copyright.
* This FAQ is being SOLD for personal profit.
* Someone else claims they made this FAQ.
* I have made a mistake in something e.g. attack, typos etc.
* You want information on something that I have NOT mentioned in the
FAQ, about Sun Quan.
* You have suggestions on what to put in on my next update
* You have CONSTRUCTIVE critisism.
If your information is helpful/useful I will put your name in the Credits
section. It's not much, but at least you and everyone else who looks at the
credits will know you helped.
All other e-mails will be deleted. Please remember that I often forget to
check my address, but if I have read your e-mail, I will reply IF it is
about one of the above mentioned areas. SIGN YOUR NAME OR ALIAS at the end
of your e-mail or you lose your place in the Credits and I know you are a
bad reader! Also, I will not accept any emails with illegible/inappropriate
words; please try to use proper grammar. Also, put your email as the subject
"Sun Quan FAQ" or something along those lines. Thank you

1.2. Dynasty Warriors 6 (DW612)
-------------------------------
Dynasty Warriors 6 (and all from 2-5) is the videogame based on the novel
by Luo Guanzhong based on the events of the three kingdoms era in China,
one which has captured the hearts (or attentions, at least) of millions of
Chinese people. Being Chinese, I had an obligation to read it; so, I did!
Buy the HUGE abridged version today! It's a good read! Anyways, DW6 is the
fifth, technically sixth as there was already a 2D fighter game called that
before the one we know and love came out. I've played Dynasty Warriors
since (drumroll!) 4 came out on the PC! Wow! But still, I'm pretty
experienced!
Dynasty Warriors 6 has introduced some very drastic changes to the series,
with nearly all of the characters getting a makeover and changing their
weapons. The Renbu System has also been introduced, as has the skill tree.
<Horror>Characters are now mostly clones (in moveset only) and Unique (4th)
Weapons, Items, Edit Characters and Bodyguards have all been cut.</Horror>
----------------------------
1.3. Version History (VSH13)
----------------------------
Version 1.0: Got in an intro to the Renbu System, his moves, his weapons and
his skill tree, as well as Musou Mode
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Sun Quan's Bio (BIO20)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NAME: Sun Quan (In Mandarin Chinese, say it as Swen Tshyuan)
STYLE NAMES: Zhongmuo
LIFE: AD163-AD225
SERVED (or ruled, rather): Wu (Sun)
BIOGRAPHY: NOTE - I'm sorry, but Sun Quan's bio is HUGE! so I'm gonna just
copy this from the DW6 mini-bios. Coming next ed!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. The new Sun Quan (NEW30)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
As I earlier mentioned (and as you know), Dynasty Warriors 6 has changed a
lot of the game, with Renbu, skill tree and just general character changes.
The new Sun Quan is a clone of Cao Pi and Yuan Shao. Decidedly average.
NOTE: To unlock Sun Quan, in the Battle of Chi Bi, Lu Bu Forces, complete
battle objective 1 (defeat Cao Cao and Sun Quan in 10 minutes).
-------------------------
3.1. Renbu System (RNB31)
-------------------------
So, what is this new Renbu system, you may ask? Well, here are the answers
you seek. This is a drastically different fighting system that claims to
revolutionise the game (or make it more realistic, at least). Note that the
Renbu gauge reverts to zero for a character after every battle.
Here is my crude drawing of the bottom left corner of the game screen.
| (BIG NUMBER)chain: The number of hits made
| (BIG ) without actually being hit
| (NUMBER) (NO): The Renbu. It levels up when the
| chain Renbu gauge fills. Its maximum is 2 but it
| can go higher
| RENBU: The Renbu gauge, filled by hitting
| (NO)RENBU enemies
| RENBU PICTU (Level): The level you are
| RENBU PICTURE (Level) PI: The item needed to use your character's
| RENBU PICTUREPI S S PI CT skill (Tome)
| PICTUREPICT S S CT
| PICTUREPI BARBARBARBAR
| PICTURE BARBARBARBAR
|
|______________________________
The gauge fills up when you attacking enemies, and the Renbu will rank up
once the gauge fills. The chain number is how long you have been fighting
the enemy without being hit by a strong attack. The higher the chain the
more your Renbu will increase, it appears. The Renbu gauge goes to 3, then
infinite, but you need to have unlocked parts of your skill tree to go to 3
or infinite.
So, what's the point of Renbu, eh? Well, the characters' attacks become
better as Renbu increases. S-String will increase in length, as do weak
charges, and strong charges get special effects or increased distance. Also,
as Renbu increases, attack reach, attack speed and attack power will
increase a small amount, depending on what sort of weapon you have.
The Renbu gauge will fall if you don't keep fighting or if you are hit by a
powerful attack. So use it well!
Also, there are special moves unlockable by finding an item on the
battlefield. They obviously help you in some way. Sun Quan's is Volley and
it rains arrows from the sky around you. It's pretty good.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
As with everything else, changed have been made regarding the weapon
system. Say goodbye to unique weapons! Now, there are 3 types of weapon for
each character; Standard, Skill and Strength.
Standard Weapon
---------------
NAME: Dragon's Might
POWER: Medium
RENBU EFFECT: When Renbu is 2 or above, attack range increases during Renbu
attacks
Skill Weapon
------------
NAME: Titan's Might
POWER: Weak
RENBU EFFECT: When Renbu is 2 or above, attack speed increases during Renbu
attacks
Strength Weapon
---------------
NAME: Heaven's Might
POWER: Strong
RENBU EFFECT: When Renbu is 2 or above, attack strength increases during
Renbu attacks
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Sun Quan's Musou Mode (MSU60)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
But...Sun Quan doesn't have a musou mode, I hear you say? Well, musou mode
is just a few levels with cutscenes plastered on, so I've invented a musou
mode for Quan based on battles he was historically in. It's strange how he
doesn't have one, whereas Sun Shang Xiang does.
