Orbs
Fire Orb (**): Adds fire damage to attack. Enemies receive damage while they
are on fire.
Comments: Fire damage increases as Orb level increases.
Ice Orb (***): Temporarily freezes enemies, immobilizing them and reducing
their defense.
Comments: Chance of freezing enemies increases as Orb level increases.
Lightning Orb (**): Lightning strikes nearby enemies, knocking them down.
Comments: Lightning damage increases as Orb level increases.
Blast Orb (*): Damages enemies even when guarding.
Comments: Block damage increases as Orb level increases.
Vorpal Orb (****): Increased damage, chance to kill non-general enemies
instantly.
Comments: Chance to instantly kill enemies increases as Orb level increases.
Items
Peacock Urn (***): Increases Life gauge.
Comments: Initially useful if your character has a short life gauge. Once you
start getting Dim Sum, I'd recommend switching to the Tortoise Amulet.
Dragon Amulet (**): Increases Musou gauge.
Comments: I haven't found having more Musou to be particularly useful,
especially since the effects of Orbs is dependent on your Musou gauge being
full. The shorter your gauge the faster it will fill up. It's better just to
get Musou Wine power ups instead.
Tiger Amulet (****): Increases Attack.
Comments: Unlike previous games, the attack boost here is significant,
especially at higher levels. This gives weaker characters a good attack
boost, and makes stronger characters real powerhouses.
Tortoise Amulet (****): Increases Defense.
Comments: Like the Tiger Amulet, the Tortoise Amulet significantly boosts
defense, especially at higher levels. A high defense not only decreases the
damage you receive but also increases your resistance to being stunned by
attacks. There is no reason why you shouldn't have one equipped at all times.
Speed Scroll (***): Increases Speed.
Comments: The speed increase is not very noticeable unless this is at high
levels. It provides a one step boost in speed at level 20 (i.e. from very
slow to slow, or from fast to very fast).
Wing Boots (*): Increases Jump ability.
Comments: Slightly increases jump height. Not too useful.
Huang's Bow (*/**** with Huang Zhong or Xiahou Yuan): Increases Bow Attack.
Comments: Not too useful unless you are playing Huang Zhong or Xiahou Yuan.
This affects their Charge attacks as well.
Nanman Armor (*): Increases Bow Defense.
Comments: Considering that arrow damage has been toned down significantly,
this item isn't too useful.
Horned Helm (*/**** with Ma Chao): Increases Mounted Attack.
Comments: Not too useful unless you are playing Ma Chao. Ma Chao + Horned
Helm + Calvary Armor + Storm/Shadow Runner = Good stuff.
Calvary Armor (*/**** with Ma Chao): Increases Mounted Defense.
Comments: Ma Chao + Horned Helm + Calvary Armor + Storm/Shadow Runner = Good
stuff.
Seven Star Sash (*): Increases Luck.
Comments: It seems that items you receive in battle are determined more by
random luck rather than luck itself. The jury is still out on whether or not
this item actually does anything.
Elixir (***): Musou gauge fills faster.
Comments: A good item in conjunction with the Way of Musou item.
Herbal Remedy (***): Increases Charge Attack effectiveness.
Comments: The usefulness of this item depends on how often you use charge
attacks. I would recommend using the Charge Bracer instead if you have it.
Art of War (*)
Effect: Increases the duration of power up items.
Stage Found: Campaign against Sun Jian
Requirements: Enter the north castle before enemy reinforcements arrive.
Defeat at least four of the following generals: Sun Quan, Sun Shang Xiang,
Zhou Tai, Lu Meng, and Gan Ning. A supply team will appear from the entry
point at the north castle and move towards the southern castle entry point.
Defeat the supply team for the item.
Comments: Not very useful.
Survival Guide (*)
Effect: When life is critical, Attack x2 when knocked down.
Stage Found: The Two Qiaos
Requirements: Rescue in order Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao for the item to appear
later when you approach the escape point.
Comments: Not very useful.
Bodyguard Manual (***)
Effect: Bodyguards become stronger.
Stage Found: Guan Yu's Escape (Liu Bei's forces)
Requirements: When Xiahou Dun arrives do not backtrack to him. Defeat the
fourth gate general when Xiahou Dun is near the bridge in front of the fourth
gate. Fight Xiahou Dun on the other side of the final gate and the item
should appear. Thanks to NyteWalkyr for the clarifications.
Comments: This is a great item for bodyguards in training, as it will
significantly extend their life expectancy. For elite bodyguards it makes
them practically godlike.
Way of Musou (***)
Effect: Can use True Musou attacks regardless of life.
Stage Found: Guan Yu's Escape (Cao Cao's forces)
Requirements: After you pass the 5th gate a supply team will appear east of
the bridge in front of the fourth gate and head eastward. Defeat the supply
team for the item.
Comments: In conjunction with the Elixir this can be useful. For some reason
True Musou attacks don't seem to be as effective this time around.
Power Scroll (*)
Effect: Won't lose weapon deadlocks.
Stage Found: The Yellow Turban Fortress (Yellow Turban forces)
Requirements: Defeat Guan Yu and Zhao Yun. A supply team will appear to the
northwest and move to the northeast entry point. Defeat the supply team for
the item.
Comments: Limited usefulness.
Wind Scroll (****)
Effect: Increases attack reach.
Stage Found: Battle of Xu Chang (Shu forces)
Requirements: Protect Yue Ying until she sets up the ramp vehicle, and defeat
Xu Zhu when he ambushes the supply camp in the southwest. When Sima Yi
remarks on the two plans failing the item will appear in the northwest.
Comments: This significantly increases the range of your weapon. It's
extremely useful for characters that have very little range. For characters
with an already long-range weapon it makes them into absolute monsters.
Fire Arrows (*/**** with Huang Zhong or Xiahou Yuan)
Effect: Arrows become fire arrows.
Stage Found: Unification of Jing (Wu forces)
Requirements: Before the enemy generals join forces, defeat Wang Lang's sub
general Zhou Xin for the supply team to appear at the west castle. Defeat the
supply team for the item.
Comments: Fun to play with but ultimately not very useful, unless you're
playing as Huang Zhong or Xiahou Yuan. This item upgrades their Charge
attacks to fire arrows.
Charge Bracer (***)
Effect: Charge attacks cannot be stopped by normal attacks.
Stage Found: Campaign against Sun Jian (Yuan Shao's forces)
Requirements: Enter the north castle before enemy reinforcements arrive. A
supply team will appear south of the castle and move towards the entry point
southwest of the castle.
Comments: If you use Charge Attacks frequently this is an excellent item.
Note:Some items and all orbs Show up at any time.

Requirements: Do not defeat any enemy generals until the cut scene where Guan
Yu meets Red Hare. Defeat Guan Yu for the item to appear. Be sure not to
defeat any other generals or sub generals until Guan Yu is defeated, as this
may prevent the item from appearing.
Comments: Since having a Harness does not take up an item slot, there's no
excuse why you shouldn't bring Red Hare along for the ride. The fastest horse
in the game is also the best horse in the game.
Hex Mark Saddle (**)
Effect: Begin the battle mounted on Hex Mark. Luck increases.
Comments: Not a bad horse, but Red Hare is so much better.
Stage Found: Campaign against Liu Bei (Yellow Turban forces - Musou Mode

morale drops to one star. After the cut scene where the horses are discovered
and the message that Han Sui refuses to defect appears, the item will appear
in the southeast area.
Comments: A good horse to use, especially with Ma Chao and his Charge Attack.
Note that you may need to get the message that Han Sui is surveying Cao Cao's
unit in order to get the item to appear.
Kurnia Yusuf writes in to mention that equipping this Harness prevents you
from being knocked off of _any_ horse.
Elephant Saddle (*)
Effect: Begin the stage mounted on an elephant.
Stage Found: The Nanman Campaign (Nanman forces)
Requirements: While riding an elephant enter the enemy base.

Peacock Urn (***): Increases Life gauge.
Comments: Initially useful if your character has a short life gauge. Once you
start getting Dim Sum, I'd recommend switching to the Tortoise Amulet.
Dragon Amulet (**): Increases Musou gauge.
Comments: I haven't found having more Musou to be particularly useful,
especially since the effects of Orbs is dependent on your Musou gauge being
full. The shorter your gauge the faster it will fill up. It's better just to
get Musou Wine power ups instead.
Tiger Amulet (****): Increases Attack.
Comments: Unlike previous games, the attack boost here is significant,
especially at higher levels. This gives weaker characters a good attack
boost, and makes stronger characters real powerhouses.
Tortoise Amulet (****): Increases Defense.
Comments: Like the Tiger Amulet, the Tortoise Amulet significantly boosts
defense, especially at higher levels. A high defense not only decreases the
damage you receive but also increases your resistance to being stunned by
attacks. There is no reason why you shouldn't have one equipped at all times.
Speed Scroll (***): Increases Speed.
Comments: The speed increase is not very noticeable unless this is at high
levels. It provides a one step boost in speed at level 20 (i.e. from very
slow to slow, or from fast to very fast).
Wing Boots (*): Increases Jump ability.
Comments: Slightly increases jump height. Not too useful.
Huang's Bow (*/**** with Huang Zhong or Xiahou Yuan): Increases Bow Attack.
Comments: Not too useful unless you are playing Huang Zhong or Xiahou Yuan.
This affects their Charge attacks as well.
Nanman Armor (*): Increases Bow Defense.
Comments: Considering that arrow damage has been toned down significantly,
this item isn't too useful.
Horned Helm (*/**** with Ma Chao): Increases Mounted Attack.
Comments: Not too useful unless you are playing Ma Chao. Ma Chao + Horned
Helm + Calvary Armor + Storm/Shadow Runner = Good stuff.
Calvary Armor (*/**** with Ma Chao): Increases Mounted Defense.
Comments: Ma Chao + Horned Helm + Calvary Armor + Storm/Shadow Runner = Good
stuff.
Seven Star Sash (*): Increases Luck.
Comments: It seems that items you receive in battle are determined more by
random luck rather than luck itself. The jury is still out on whether or not
this item actually does anything.
Elixir (***): Musou gauge fills faster.
Comments: A good item in conjunction with the Way of Musou item.
Herbal Remedy (***): Increases Charge Attack effectiveness.
Comments: The usefulness of this item depends on how often you use charge
attacks. I would recommend using the Charge Bracer instead if you have it.
Art of War (*)
Effect: Increases the duration of power up items.
Stage Found: Campaign against Sun Jian
Requirements: Enter the north castle before enemy reinforcements arrive.
Defeat at least four of the following generals: Sun Quan, Sun Shang Xiang,
Zhou Tai, Lu Meng, and Gan Ning. A supply team will appear from the entry
point at the north castle and move towards the southern castle entry point.
Defeat the supply team for the item.
Comments: Not very useful.
Survival Guide (*)
Effect: When life is critical, Attack x2 when knocked down.
Stage Found: The Two Qiaos
Requirements: Rescue in order Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao for the item to appear
later when you approach the escape point.
Comments: Not very useful.
Bodyguard Manual (***)
Effect: Bodyguards become stronger.
Stage Found: Guan Yu's Escape (Liu Bei's forces)
Requirements: When Xiahou Dun arrives do not backtrack to him. Defeat the
fourth gate general when Xiahou Dun is near the bridge in front of the fourth
gate. Fight Xiahou Dun on the other side of the final gate and the item
should appear. Thanks to NyteWalkyr for the clarifications.
Comments: This is a great item for bodyguards in training, as it will
significantly extend their life expectancy. For elite bodyguards it makes
them practically godlike.
Way of Musou (***)
Effect: Can use True Musou attacks regardless of life.
Stage Found: Guan Yu's Escape (Cao Cao's forces)
Requirements: After you pass the 5th gate a supply team will appear east of
the bridge in front of the fourth gate and head eastward. Defeat the supply
team for the item.
Comments: In conjunction with the Elixir this can be useful. For some reason
True Musou attacks don't seem to be as effective this time around.
Power Scroll (*)
Effect: Won't lose weapon deadlocks.
Stage Found: The Yellow Turban Fortress (Yellow Turban forces)
Requirements: Defeat Guan Yu and Zhao Yun. A supply team will appear to the
northwest and move to the northeast entry point. Defeat the supply team for
the item.
Comments: Limited usefulness.
Wind Scroll (****)
Effect: Increases attack reach.
Stage Found: Battle of Xu Chang (Shu forces)
Requirements: Protect Yue Ying until she sets up the ramp vehicle, and defeat
Xu Zhu when he ambushes the supply camp in the southwest. When Sima Yi
remarks on the two plans failing the item will appear in the northwest.
Comments: This significantly increases the range of your weapon. It's
extremely useful for characters that have very little range. For characters
with an already long-range weapon it makes them into absolute monsters.
Fire Arrows (*/**** with Huang Zhong or Xiahou Yuan)
Effect: Arrows become fire arrows.
Stage Found: Unification of Jing (Wu forces)
Requirements: Before the enemy generals join forces, defeat Wang Lang's sub
general Zhou Xin for the supply team to appear at the west castle. Defeat the
supply team for the item.
Comments: Fun to play with but ultimately not very useful, unless you're
playing as Huang Zhong or Xiahou Yuan. This item upgrades their Charge
attacks to fire arrows.
Charge Bracer (***)
Effect: Charge attacks cannot be stopped by normal attacks.
Stage Found: Campaign against Sun Jian (Yuan Shao's forces)
Requirements: Enter the north castle before enemy reinforcements arrive. A
supply team will appear south of the castle and move towards the entry point
southwest of the castle.
Comments: If you use Charge Attacks frequently this is an excellent item.
Note:Some items and all orbs Show up at any time.
