=============================================================================== DYNASTY WARRIORS: GUNDAM 3 - Skill Acquisition Guide for PS3 Date of Original Creation: 02/29/12 Version: 1.5 By Genesplicer38 Copyright 2012 by Genesplicer38 =============================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | TABLE OF CONTENTS | |-----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |Version History........................................................[Ver#]| |Section 1: All Skills in Alphabetical Order with Descriptions & Unlock.[Sec1]| |Section 2: Skills Organized by Unlocking Method........................[Sec2]| |*Initially Available...................................................[S2P1]| |*Unlocked Through Memorial Missions....................................[S2P2]| |*Learned From a Character at L5 Friendship.............................[S2P3]| |*Learned From Special Circumstances....................................[S2P4]| |Section 3: FAQ.........................................................[Sec3]| |Section 4: Contact & Guide Display Information.........................[Sec4]| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Version History [Ver#] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.0 - Descriptions an Unlock Conditions provided for all 38 Skills 1.5 - Major corrections made. Complete 100 Fields Captured Memorial Mission skills had previously been marked as 50 Ace Defeated in their Section 1 descriptions. This was fixed. Also, the Complete 500 Fields Captured Memorial Mission section had been marked as a second 100 Fields Captured section. This was corrected, and the entries for those skills in Section 1 were corrected to match as well. 2.0 - Realized the entire Memorial Mission section was wrong. The skills unlock in a set order regardless of the order you complete the missions. Since I tended to unlock the Memorial Missions in the same order just from the manner in which I rack up statistics, it took me 3 play-throughs to realize something was seriously off with that section. A forth play- through to figure out what it was, and then a fifth to confirm I was right. Needless to say, this took me awhile to accomplish; so that's why this version took a year to come out. Sorry to take so long. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All Skills in Alphabetical Order with Descriptions & Unlock Instructions [Sec1] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ace Killer: Advantage increases when fighting ace pilots. -Unlock Memorial Mission skill group #4.

These skill groups unlock in a set order regardless of the order in which you complete the various Memorial Missions. The skill groups in the order in which they unlock are: Group #1 Blast Strike Fortune Heat Up Pilot Sense Self-Hypnosis Spirit Surge Group #2 Counter Customize Head Shot Parry Sky Eye Group #3 Instant Hero Magnetic Field Turnaround Group #4 Ace Killer Pressure Hit Group #5 Knockdown One Man Army Group #6 High Tension Impulse Group #7 Ace Pilot Overdrive Not all Memorial Missions provide rewards when completed, and not all of the rewards provided are skill packets. You can find what reward, if any, a particular Memorial Mission offers under the Mission Summary page (2/3) of the Mission Info. (Just hit the left button while the Mission is highlited to change the page in the Mission Info area of the screan.) Just so you know which ones to look for, here is a list of the Memorial Missions that will unlock one of the skill groups: 50 Aces Defeated Memorial Mission 100 Fields Captured Memorial Mission 100 Aces Defeated Memorial Mission 10 Mobile Armor Defeated Memorial Mission 500 Fields Captured Memorial Mission 20 Mobile Armor Defeated Memorial Mission 100,000 Defeated Memorial Mission The missions are listed in the order you're statistically likely to unlock them, but that is of course not certain. You could spam them to arrange a specific order of course, but that seems pointless since the skills unlock in the same order regardless of the order in which you complete the missions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Learned From a Character at L5 Friendship [S2P3] DG Cells - Schwarz Bruder Fighting Instinct- Gym Ghingham Final Sacrifice - Treize Khushrenada Serene Mind - Domon Kasshu Moonrace - Loran Cehack Salvage Connoisseur - Judau Ashta School of Master Asia - Master Asia Temptation - Scirocco Warrior Responsibility - Kou Uraki ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Special [S2P4] Complete the History Mission: Space Fortress A Baoa Qu. Beginners Aid ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FAQ [Sec3] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q: How do I unlock character X and get them to L5 Friendship so I can get their skill? A: See my handy dandy Character Unlock & Friendship Guide posted right here, at gamefaqs.com. Q: How do I unlock the History Mission: Space Fortress A Baoa Qu? A: Oh Boy! This is a complicated process. First, you must unlock Chan Agi by completing the Mission: Distorted World in the Those Who Understand Chapter. Once you get her friendship level high enough (do this by increasing your friendship with Armuro Ray) she will send a Terminal message that will unlock the first mission in the Original Gundam Series History Mission Sequence from the Federation's perspective. Complete all of these. (Escape, is the final one.) Once you have done that, the first Zeon perspective mission: Battle of Odessa (Zeon) should appear in the History Missions. In order to play this mission, Char and M'Quve must be unlocked as playable pilots. Space Fortress A Baoa Qu is the final mission in the Zeon sequence. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contact & Guide Display Information [Sec4] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This guide was created for display on gamefaqs.com.
