geebsWO blather- What the frick? Okay, I had to look the Katsuie thing up, and apparently he did have the twin axes in SW2:XL! I have no recollection of that all. I looked back in my LJ (hey, this thing is good for something) under the sw2 tab and I do comment on him having a good moveset, but I don't go into specifics. I didn't mention the weapon, but thinking about this more, I seem to now remember thinking he did twin axes better than Pang De in DW5.
Still, I remember everyone else from SW2's moves pretty well. And its not like I didn't play Katsuie a bunch in SW2:XL, because I fired it up in the old PS2 and apparently I maxed him out! Actually, I was more shocked that I hadn't maxed everyone out, there were 7 people who weren't at level 70: Hideyoshi, Nene, Mitsunari, Oichi, Okuni, No, and Takeda. Which given frigging Yoshimoto was maxed I'm totally skeptical! Why the hell would I play that freak to completion and not some of the aformentioned?
But I digress, my only guess as to not remembering Katsuie is he wasn't in the original WO? But neither were Kojiro and Gracia, but when I played them, nothing seemed unfamiliar. I mean, I know Kojiro was my favorite SW2:XL character, but Gracia didn't feel like I'd never played her before.
Anyhoo, I've started using a new grinding level for weapons- Dong Zhou's ambition. Its a DLC stage, 10 stars, pretty easy though. Well, up until the end, where it can be very dangerous because Magoichi brings a crapload of rifleman who can wipe you out if you don't move out of the way fast and quickly kill them. Well, that and being a hard difficulty, if you get unlucky and get hit by an enemy officer's musou directly, its auto death. As I said, I'd been doing Rescue at Xi Ling, which has way more officers, but takes slightly longer to complete. I was also doing Dueling Heroes, which is another fun stage since you get to take on hordes of demons with several officers, plus Achilles, Kojiro and Nemea (or Musashi if you're playing Nemea). Its about as easy as DZ's Ambition, but one less star, so why not go for the same difficulty, but better rewards?
Although given the randomness of the appearance of gold attributes, it is very frustrating when I don't get anything. Or I get the wrong things, like confluence.
