Shin Sangoku Musou: Multi Raid 2 - Conqueror Ch.3 (Quests)

There are some gameplay changes from Strikeforce that I haven't gone over yet.
Every weapon type has a new ability now, such as swords being able to unleash a new attack for every 20 hits they get in a combo. Definitely the coolest. But be warned, the combo meter stops counting at 255 hits for some reason, so you'll stop being able to use it if it gets that high and need to reset the combo. They can also deflect projectiles which is...okay.
Special type weapons like Sima Yi's claws have reduced musou cost for using support skills (useless) and can use charge triangle attacks mid air (also useless).
Pike has some counterattacks that you'll never use because you'll be flying everywhere almost constantly. But they have a nifty ability where the user's attack and defense increase proportional to how much HP is lost. Annoyingly, this applies for ENEMY pike users as well so they can be way more durable than intended sometimes, especially later on when their HPs are bigger.
Spear is able to launch enemies into the air by pressing X mid-combo. I tried this a few times and always whiffed my air attacks immediately after doing this. They don't get knocked back while dashing, that's neat, I guess.
Bows can do a multi-lock with charge attacks (you never will) and deal extra damage to enemies afflicted with an ailment. But none of the giant monsters can get afflicted with ailments so it's main usefulness is pretty moot. It can also do sidestep dash attacks by attacking and dodging to the sides, those are neat.
Clubs can charge their charge attacks for longer and unleash a shockwave while charging by twirling the analog. And can sometimes stun an enemy when attacking from behind. Highly situational stuff you'll likely never use.
Yeah, so, the weapon abilities are generally pretty bad. Sword is the most fun to actually use, Pike is the most useful practically because the Atk buff can let you deal good damage and trust me you want as much as you can get in this game.
