How to unlock the Combo Master achievement in Dynasty Warriors 7 - Definitive Guide

I got this achievement in Shu story mode while playing as Zhuge Liang. I equipped an Iron Fan as one weapon and a War Fan as the other (It's the one that he gets an EX bonus on).

These weapons feature Switch Attacks (performed by switching weapons with the Right Bumper), that juggle opponents while also landing multiple hits.

With these weapons equipped, I approached a general near a wall (either stone or fort) and repeatedly switched weapons while keeping them against the wall. Repeated tapping RB causes a multitude of wind gusts to hit the enemy officer, keeping him in the air. As long as you keep the officer in your sights, you can continue to move up and down the wall with him, using the switch attacks to keep him levitated.

The advantage of using this method is that these attacks will also strike surrounding enemies. So you can switch quick enough that you won't get interrupted by any peons in your way.

Also, the switch attacks don't do much damage. So you don't have to worry about accidentally KOing the enemy officer while trying to juggle them.

EDIT: Thanks to commenters who pointed out you could just as easily accomplish this by equipping two Iron Fans and rapidly switching.

I found it much easier to do it with 2 iron fans rather than with 1 of each. I did it in an arena level and was able to juggle 6 guys at the same time.

I will update the solution, I didn't even think to equip two weapons at the same time!

Worked like a charm. Easy work with the two fans.

I can't vote as I'm playing this on the PS3, but this worked perfectly for me. Thanks.

I got this easily by playing as an officer who has a wind circle with every attack, so they can attack people on the ground. Just get on a horse and get an officer pinned against a wall and keep attacking and the achievement will popped up.

An alternative way is to use Huang Zhong, or another character with a bow. One attack at close range adds 6 or more to the counter, so it should be easier to get 50 hits.

Really easy to get w/ Huang Zhong, I got it about a minute in to the first Shu story mode mission where you have to use him(maybe the 10th-11th mission in the Shu story).

A character using a bow with the 6th charge attack should get upwards of 50-65+ combo, so long as the enemy is close when you attack them. Interestingly enough, sometimes you can also juggle out of the 6th charge allowing you to get stupidly high combos... not that there is really any reason to.

I disagree. Stupid high combos are a great way to vent frustration on a general that had at one point been annoying the crap out of you. Namely somebody like Yue Ying in the Stone Sentinal Maze.

something you should add, if youre having trouble dual element ice and electric, both freeze/stun without resetting the combo

I think the best combo is X-X-X-X-X-Y if you get it right but would like to add that attacking a ballista or anything along those lines by equiping a character with a bow and running right next to it is what helped me with this combo

If your using a bow and you hit a different enemy, it will change to show the other combo, but if you continue to hit the previous enemy it will still continue to go up. And you may have to use a charge attack or throw in a musou once you get a higher combo to boost it to 50. I got mine up to 100 something that way.

I got this one in the first Mission on the Shu Campaign while playing Liu Bei Twin sword style with no upgraded skills, weapons or anything.

Just pick one standard Soldier and kill him with X,Y aerial attack. When you land just walk on step forward and use X,Y again so the Combo stays active. If you reach 50+ the achievement pops instantly.
Very simple

For this trophy, all you need is a bow weapon. You might want to also pic a character capable of using it well. Just attack an enemy officer and keep spamming your regular attack. It won't necessarily work the first time. My first few attempts, I got combos in the high 30s or low 40s. You will get lucky after a few tries.

I got this buy using Zhu Rong's 2nd special attack. I tried it out for the first time to see what it was like and the achievement popped up.

The achievement is quite simple. There are enough videos on Youtube on how to make a combination of 50 hits.
Video guide with a selection of combinations with various characters.
