Contact ------------------------------------------------- 1-Introduction ------------------------------------------------- This is the forth FAQ I’ve written for GameFAQs. The other FAQs I've written are also for the game Shin Sangoku Mouso 4/Dynasty Warriors 5 for the characters Guan Ping, Ling Tong and Ma Chao Also at the time of me writing this FAQ, I only have the Japanese version of the game(Shin Sangoku Musou 4) and my Japanese is very poor, so I may have some trouble with names and such. This FAQ is being written based on my experiences playing the game Dynasty Warriors 5/ Shin Sangoku Musou 4, playing as the character Pang Tong. Through out this FAQ I’ll cover thing such as his, move set, musou mode stages, weapons, models ect. ------------------------------------------------- 2-Copyrights ------------------------------------------------- You may not reproduce this FAQ under any circumstances except for personal, private use.

His musou. Pang Tong can easily wipe out a large group of 50/60 soliders with just one musou attack. If you mix his 4th level weapon with a good elixer you'll have your self an unstopable musou machine. A ture master of Pang Tong will be able to pound through even Shura/Expert Mode with ease. ------------------------------------------------- 5-Unlocking ------------------------------------------------- Beat Musou mode with any three Shu characters to unlock Pang Tong. ------------------------------------------------- 6-Moveset ------------------------------------------------- Keys: S = Square button, T = Triangle button, C = Circle button S- A swing to the left that spins Pang Tong in a circle SS- Pang Tong with his back to the enemy stabs them with the back of his staff SSS- Pang Tong still with his back to the enemy, Bends over backwards and does a straight downward swing. downward SSSS- Pang Tong now jumps out and kicks the enemy SSSSS- Pang Tong thrust his staff straight out sideways SSSSSS- Pang Tong jumps into a little ball in the air, and hit flips forward a bit, hitting any enemy in front of him. Alternate SSSSSS- A swing to the left that spins Pang Tong in a circle SSSSSSS- Pang Tong with his back to the enemy stabs them with the back of his staff SSSSSSSS- Pang Tong still with his back to the enemy, Bends over backwards and does a straight downward swing. SSSSSSSSS- Pang Tong jumps into the air with his head to the ground and his feet in the air, and spins his staff around him hitting all enemies nearby. T- Pang Tong throws a little green ball of energy out in front of him that explodes and damages all enemies nearby. I'm not sure what element it is. ST- Pang Tong throws his staff up into the air, knocking any enemy in it's way into the air. SST- Pang Tong does a series of 3 backflip kicks and finshes out by swinging around his staff hitting any enemys near by. SSST- Pang Tong jumps into the air with his head to the ground and his feet in the air, and spins his staff around him hitting all enemies nearby. (this is Pang Tongs SSSSSSSSS) SSSST- Pang Tong shoots out a huge green ball shraight in front of him, that knocks any enemy nearby high into the air, SSSSST- Pang Tong jumps and spins in the air, causing a tornado like wave of energy to go around him, hittting any enemy near by. Jump Attack- a straight (very short ranged) downward swing Jump Charge- Pang Tong flips in the air and places his staff at his feet, he rides the staff like a surfboard for a few seconds. (bad attacking move, great move when your trying to get away from the enemy) Mounted attack- Pang Tong does a series of 6 downward swing going right to left. Mounted charge- Pang Tong throws his staff out to the right hitting any enemy in it's way Mounted Musou- Pang Tong does repeated downward swings going left to right. Musou attack- Pang Tong jumps into the air and starts spinning around,causing a tornado like wave of energy to go around him, hittting any enemy near by. This move is very much like his SSSSST, only with huge ranged. This musou is capable of taking out 50-60 enemy soliders in one shoot. True Musou attack- This move is the same as his normal musou, only with a few more spins at the end, and a fire effect. It should be noted that from Alternate S6-S9 you need to have a weapon at least level 3 that's Evo-capable (aka the little blue dot near the weapons name) As well as a full musou bar to use. All 4th level weapons are Evo-capable. This info is credited to "Steven Liu" thanks for the info =) -------------------------------------------------- 7-Weapons -------------------------------------------------- I have a hard time reading the names of the weapons in Japanese, so for now I’m just going to call them Weapon 1, Weapon 2 ect. Stats-Vision Staff Base power 2 Number of attacks 4 Weight Random Stats-Mirage Staff Base power 6 Number of attacks 5 Weight Random Stats-Wind Staff Base power 10 Number of attacks 6 Weight Random Stats-Tornado Staff Base attack 32 Number of attacks 6 Weight Average Musou Charge Lvl 18 Luck Lvl 15 Bow Lvl 16 Defense Lvl 17 Life Lvl 15 Requirements for Obtaining Pang Tong's 4th Stage- Final Engagement on Nan Zhong Requirement- complete, bridge event, Yue Ying's tiger tanks event and armored troops event. Strategy- First off, like always, make sure Pang Tong is worked up pretty well, even though Final Engagement on Nan Zhong is only a two star battle. This weapon is pretty straight forward. The first thing you need to do is the bridge event, and to do this all you have to do is take the fort just below your starting position. Pretty simple, afterward you'll be in the poison lakes. You'll want to take the gate just a little below the fort, also you'll get attacked by Meng Huo and another faceless unit. (I can't read his name just yet) Kill the faceless guy, but DO NOT kill Meng Huo. Now there will be two paths, the north path takes you up towards the rest of your army, and the straight path lead into the Nanman army. Take the north path, there will be two enemy generls blocking your way. Kill them both off and keep heading up. As soon as you reach your camp, you'll trigger the beast unit event. DON'T kill the enemy general that leads the unit. Go and take the fort that's blocking Zhuge Liang, this should trigger Yue Ying's tiger tanks event, after that kill off the beast general. Remeber that straght path? head back to it (ignor Meng Huo) once you meet up with some Nanman troops Meng Huo should retreat back to his main camp. There should be one enemy general blocking your path, kill him off and keep heading forward till you run into Wu Tugu and his armored troops. Zhuge Liang will say somthing and dispatch a unit with some exploding pots (pretty crazy stuff lol) simply kill Wu Tugu before he kill that unit to complete the armored troops event. The Precious Item report should show up in that north path you took earlier. Get the weapon and finsh the stage as normal. A saddle would be nice, but it's not necessary, also make sure your playing on hard mode. Also I'm not sure if not killing Meng Huo is a Requirement for the weapon, but I got it by ignoring him, so for the time being I'd just suggest leving him alone as he wont hurt your army. -------------------------------------------------- 8-Musou Mode -------------------------------------------------- Pang Tong has 5 stages in his musou mode, The 5 stages are 1-Battle of Chi Bi 2-Battle of Cheng Du 3-Battle of Mount Ding Jun 4-Final Engagement on Nan Zhong 5-Battle of Bai Di Castle As soon as I get the US release of this game and can better read what's going on in the battles, I'll update with some stage strategies -------------------------------------------------- 9-Pang Tong's models -------------------------------------------------- Model 1- This model comes with Pang Tong. Pang Tong wears a green and brown colored robe. He has a little red, and purple detail on his chest. He wears green pants and shoes, and a green turban with a black tassel coming out of the top. He also has a white face cover. Model 2- Pang Tong unlocks this model when he get's about 6000 points. This model is just his model 1 with different colors. All his green becomes white, and his brown, black. The red detail on his chest is now gold and the purple has become black. He has black pants, and shoes, and his turban is now black as well. His face cover also becomes black Model 3- Pang Tong Tong unlocks this model when he get about 20000 points. This model is just his DW4 model. Pang Tong now wears a lighter green robe with some gold around his waist and arms. He get's plain white pants and black shoes. He now wears a strange chinese top hat (yeah bad description I know) with a bunch of red tassels hanging from it. He also has a white face cover. Model 4- Pang Tong unlocks this model when he gains about 20000 points along with his model 3. This is Pang Tongs alternate DW4 model. In this model Pang Tong's robe becomes a dark brown from his chest down to his waist. His arms becomes a gold color with some white around the sleeves. He still has his white pants and black shoes. He now wears a gold priest like looking hat (yes I know, another bad description >_<) with white clothes coming down on both sides of his face. He still has his white face cover. -------------------------------------------------- 10-Q&A -------------------------------------------------- Q: The requirement for obtaining Pang Tong's 4th lvl weapon isn't working? A: Make sure your playing on hard mode, and make sure you complete all three events. Bridge, Tiger tanks and armored troops. Q: What's the best stage to get high level items? A: I've been able to get 15-20 level items on any 4-5 star stage on hard mode or Shura/Expert Mode. The higer the diffuculty the better chance for a high level item. Also using a good Seven star sash (luck+) and a character with a high luck+ on his weapon ups the chances for a good item. Q: Do you have to have played Pang Tong's Musou mode and got his 2nd and 3rd weapon before you get his 4th? A: No, I have got many 4th weapons the first time I played the character. Q: What will you except for your FAQ? And how will I know what I e-mailed you will get added? A: E-mail me anything, you'll know weather or not I'm going to add it if you get an e-mail back. If you don't get an e-mail back, I either didn't what to add it or am already working on it myself. -------------------------------------------------- 11-Checklist of things to come -------------------------------------------------- My strategy for using Pang Tong Strategies for Pang Tong's musou mode Pang Tong's Ending Pang Tongs's qoutes More to come as I think of it. -------------------------------------------------- 12-Credits -------------------------------------------------- Fist off I’d like to thanks CJayC for making this site, so I have a place to write my FAQ’s.
