Instructions
Run Kunoichi, run! One of her greatest assets, as you might expect from a ninja, is speed. You will never need to give Kunoichi the tengu sandals or a horse because she is naturally faster than every horse in the game.
Spin, spin, spin! Kunoichi's musou attack is one of the best for clearing large groups. She spins in circles clashing with everyone! The trick is to knock a mob surrounding you down to about half health, THEN pop the musou. This will maximize your musou K.O. count and score you more points.
Use her primary charge attack to run into an approaching mob. If you use this attack while you are already engaged, you run the risk of getting chopped in the back while you charge. This both stops your charge and hurts!
Use her second and third charge attacks to take out groups. Her third charge attack in particular is devastating to both mobs and officers.
Compensate. Kunoichi's strength is on the low side, so equip her with the Power Bracer to help her hit a bit harder. Upgrade her Drive skill for an added charge attack power bonus.
Utilize the attics! If you happen to be charging through a castle and are low on health, look for a ladder leading up (usually at the ends of corridors). Double-jumping up there will reveal several barrels with power-ups; one is always a health boost.
Keep your eyes open. It may take some looking for a couple instances in which Kunoichi and Hanzo can use a secret "Ninja path" to assassinate an enemy general. Double jump up to it and enjoy a short time without enemies.
