How To Level Up & Switch Your Horse In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

by

In Dynasty Warriors: Origins, there isn’t a dedicated sprint button; instead, your character automatically starts sprinting after running for a few steps. Sprinting allows for quick movement, but you often need to traverse large battlefields swiftly to reach other officers in time, helping them and ultimately securing victory.

In this game, your equine companion plays a crucial role. You can summon it whenever needed, whether in the open world or during combat. If you’re fond of swift attack-and- retreat tactics, you can engage in battles from atop your horse. Here’s a guide on how to obtain your first horse, enhance its skills, and even exchange it for other horses if you wish.

In this rephrased version, I aimed to maintain the original meaning while making the text more engaging and easier to read.

How To Unlock The First Horse In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

In Chapter 1, your first horse can be obtained without cost by conversing with a merchant who becomes accessible in the open world. This merchant appears following the completion of the “Test Of Zheng Fei” battle, and you’ll encounter him on your journey to the Battle Of Guangzong. Specifically, the merchant will show up in the overworld as you travel northeast from Wan Castle, but before you reach his camp; he’ll be standing there with his horse nearby. Simply chat with the merchant, and he’ll present you with the horse, which will then be automatically equipped for you.

To quickly get on your horse, press the left joystick (on your console) or the letter ‘V’ (on your keyboard).

How To Level Up Your Horse In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

In simpler terms, your horse accumulates Experience Points (XP) when you participate in missions or main story battles, excluding Skirmishes. Missions are denoted by a red diamond with a soldier icon. The XP your horse gains depends on the length of the battle and the amount of time you spend riding it and using it to charge against enemies. As your horse levels up, it will unlock unique bonuses at regular intervals, with each horse having its own set of these perks.

How To Switch Horses In Dynasty Warriors: Origins

In my gaming world, your initial steed will be ready to ride, but you’ll come across other mounts as you progress through the game. You can swap between these horses in the Battle Preparation menu, where it’s located at the bottom-left corner of the screen. Each horse offers unique abilities, with some being faster and more powerful than others. Keep experimenting with different horses to see what works best for your playstyle. To acquire new horses, focus on boosting the peace of each region to its maximum level. When you reach this point, a reward, including a fresh horse, will be waiting for you at a nearby checkpoint.
