Maintaining high army morale is crucial for success in Dynasty Warriors: Origins' intense battles. This guide explains its impact and how to keep your troops fighting effectively.

Understanding Morale in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

Army morale directly impacts the performance of your officers and soldiers, influencing both their effectiveness and enemy behavior. High morale means your officers can more independently defeat enemy officers and capture bases. Conversely, low morale weakens your forces, making enemy officers stronger and more likely to capture your bases, significantly increasing the difficulty of winning.

Boosting Morale

Several actions can raise your army's morale. While some are predetermined events (e.g., ambushes), many depend on your battlefield performance. These include:

• Defeating enemy commanders
• Capturing bases
• Achieving high kill counts (e.g., 100 soldiers)
• Winning duels

Conversely, morale decreases when:

• Bases are lost
• Commanders are killed
• Duels are lost
• Enemies successfully execute ambushes or Grand Tactics

Reversing Low Morale

Low morale doesn't mean defeat. Actively assisting struggling allies, identified via the minimap, is key. Providing support typically boosts morale, and consistently aiding your allies will improve their fighting capabilities and overall army morale. Remember, swift aid to allies in distress is vital for turning the tide of battle.
