Technique

Technique (技) is a character type introduced in the Warriors Orochi series. Characters in this category are represented by the color yellow. If a player's team possess two or more technique characters, the final Musou in a Musou chain will automatically activate the Absorb skill.

Technique characters incorporate their Type Action into one of their Charge Attacks ("Enhanced Strike", i.e., , R1). All Enhanced Strikes deal more damage and have faster animations than standard Charge Attacks. If characters in this type are being hit, they can perform an "Extra Counter" (tap R1 while being hit). Both actions require Musou which may hamper their performance when cornered in crowds.

Warriors Orochi 3 removes its previous Type Actions for a sidestep ability, which has users become temporarily invincible as they perform the maneuver and critical hit airborne enemies. Ultimate allows Technique characters to shift behind enemies by pressing while being attacked.

In the first game, all Type Actions included red afterimages for the user, and a white slash graphic for counters. Warriors Orochi 2 has the Type Actions cause a white brief flash or glow for characters.
