How to fight Lu Bu in the Battle of Xiapi in the origin of Dynasty Warriors
Although there will be some small-scale conflicts with Lu Bu in the early chapters, the battle of Xiapi is the decisive boss battle. After defeating Chen Gong, you will fight Lu Bu. If you choose to support the Sun family in Chapter 3, you will not be able to participate in the Battle of Xiapi and fight Lu Bu. Only after choosing to join Cao Cao or Liu Bei's camp will you have the opportunity to participate in the Battle of Xiapi and face off against Lu Bu. This boss battle will be very difficult. The first goal is to knock Lu Bu off the red rabbit horse, which requires reducing his health to about 80%.
Only after the blood volume drops to 80%, Lu Bu will get off the red rabbit horse and start a ground attack. Next, we will introduce all of Lu Bu's attacks when riding a red rabbit horse, as well as tactics on how to avoid these attacks. An officer and your partner will assist you during the battle. So you won't be alone in battle; if an officer falls, the next warrior will take over his role. But we recommend that you don't rely too much on your partners. They mainly act as human shields to attract Lu Bu's attacks.
The main things you need to focus on are dodging, parrying, and effectively using skills to deal with Lu Bu's attacks. If your parrying skills are weak, it is recommended that you do some practice before fighting Lu Bu.
Red Rabbit Horse Tactics:
Below are the attacks and tactics you can use at the start of combat. When Lu Bu is riding on the red rabbit horse, we need to dodge and attack him at the right time to pull him off the horse.
Attack 1: Fire multiple scarlet darts from the halberd. These darts can be easily dodged with the right timing. At this time, you must stop attacking Lu Bu, observe and find ways to avoid the darts.
Attack 2: Lu Bu will attack in a zigzag manner to clear the enemy troops in front of him. But before performing this attack, his Red Rabbit Horse will begin to glow, which will be a sign of an upcoming attack. Simply duck to avoid damage.
Attack 3: Lu Bu's movements are sometimes shrouded in orange light, and you can rely on combat skills or special skills to interrupt. Palm strikes are great for interrupting this orange glow attack.
We recommend that you rely on multi-attack skills to suppress Lu Bu, and never stop attacking his shield. Only in this way can we lead to victory. Once Lu Bu's health drops to 80%, he will dismount and engage in ground combat.
Ground attack:
On the ground, perfect dodge is key to this fight. You must accurately time your dodge to survive the battle with Lu Bu. While Lu Bu's attacks on Red Rabbit look deadly, once he dismounts, the attacks become more unpredictable.
Attack #1: Lu Bu will create lines of red energy, which can be dealt with by parrying or dodging. You can also use skills to counter these attacks.
Attack #2: Lu Bu turns red all over and performs a huge forward attack. Simple dodging can help you avoid damage.
Attack #3: Common melee attacks, all of which can be parried, dodged, or countered.
Attack #4: After Lu Bu jumps into the air, he hits the ground and releases a huge shock wave attack. Since this is an area attack, it's not wise to get close to Lu Bu. We relied on his cue to jump up, which was our signal to evacuate as quickly as possible. Since this is an area attack, a small delay can cost a lot of health.
Lu Bu moves very quickly on the battlefield and attacks very quickly. It is difficult to grasp the timing of dodge and parry, so it may take many attempts to master it. Take your time to adjust to his attack patterns and use the cues to identify his attacks.
