Shin Sangoku Musou Blast/Officer Cards

Officer Cards in Shin Sangoku Musou Blast are used by the player to organize their own deck for combat purposes. Up to four characters can be used at a time, though one of them is designated as the player's avatar. The stats and abilities of each officer vary in terms of rarity and level. Players must also consider the amount of characters they can bring or handle to sufficiently build a proper attack team since customization is not possible during battles. Increasing rank level is also a necessary step in order to use stronger officers. Inventory problems that arise from accumulating too much cards are solved by removing unneeded ones or purchasing additional space with orbs.

Officers gain experience and levels by fusing with other cards. The higher the card's level is, the more experience the recipient acquires. Rarity rank also determines how much levels a character can possibly have. Normal cards are given a level cap of 15, rare types get 20, and super rare ones have 30. The only exception to this rule are Shuijing cards; these special cards do not level up and are mostly used for strengthening other characters.

Players can obtain officer cards in a variety of ways. The most common method is by winning battles or fulfilling special missions. Completing every mission within a given scenario may also reward the player with rare cards. Another method of collecting new cards is through the gacha roulette. Three versions of this function exist; the first roulette offers a single officer while the second yields 10 different ones. Both require orbs and allow players to see a preview of their prize once per day, giving them the option to cancel if the results are undesirable. The third version is similar to the first one except that tickets are spent instead of orbs. Super rare cards can be obtained from all three roulettes, but the chances of finding one is small. The surest way to collect these elusive types is to puchase them at the card shop with in-game points earned from using gacha or discarding officers. Here is a current listing of each officer available for sale.

Upon reaching their maximum level, officers can unlock their true potential by participating in certain battles found in the Special Chapters section. These battles change daily and must match the character's day of choice for them to awaken. Going through the process will modify a card's border design and double their level cap, giving them another opportunity to gain stat bonuses. Listed below is a schedule of each battle available during the weekdays.

Musou Attacks
Musou attacks function similarly to those in the main titles, but this time they undergo a cooldown period after one use. The range of each Musou varies between weapons and is only visible when used by the AI, giving players time to avoid incoming attacks or coordinate more efficiently with allies. The usage cost is basically the amount of Musou levels needed to unleash the attack. Some attacks last longer than others, while others have higher damage values or additional properties to compensate.

Skills
Skills are special abilities used by reserve officers within the player's own team. Like Musou attacks, they undergo a period of cooldown after one use and have their own Musou consumption rate.
