Liu bei chibi battle is impossible

[The Real GOW]

So to start you clear the left side, done that, then you clear the area behind it, done that then you go to help Liu Bei while doing so Zhao Yu struggles aginast Huang Gai so you go to assist him then while doing so Lui bei struggles and then dies... okay so i kill the boats then ignore behind and rush to help Liu Bei first then the enemies from behind storm the alter and kill Zhuge Liang, so i clear the boat then behind then finish Liu Bei before helping Zhao Yu but he dies before i can get to him so no matter which order i do it either Zhuge Liang or Liu Bei or Zhao Yu ends up dying, wtf am i suppose to do then?

I'm playing on the hardest difficulty and all my weapons are max'd out, i even tried watching a video to see how other people are doing it and they're doing exactly what i'm doing but i assume they're on an easier difficulty as their allies are not dying anywhere near as fast as mine are

Consider using the Bronze Hand Gong to buy yourself some time on the morale. You don't have to use this - but it can buy you about 30 seconds on Ultimate Warrior difficulty and more on lower difficulties. The timeline below will be different if you're not Ultimate Warrior and either not using the gong or not clearing enemy officers at high speed. To be clear, you don't need the item, but you'll need to clear enemy officers even faster and may need to leave more enemy officers alive and hope you've contributed enough in different battle areas.

Take out Yue Jin on the west side and as many enemy officers as you can, but will say to leave Xiahou Yuan to fight against Taishi Ci.

Ride south and take out all the enemy officers in the base so they can't claim it.
Ride east, take out the Deng Xi and his buddies so they don't take the southeast base. On higher difficulties, Cheng Pu will retreat and even Sun Shangxiang may retreat if taking too long.

Ride north, duel Li Dian, win the duel. Take advantage of the lowered enemy morale to defeat as many enemy officers as you can.

If Taishi Ci and Zhu Zhi are still holding their ground on the west, then you have breathing room to take it easy until the fire attack, BUT would say to help out somewhere.

Things such as:
Defeating Huang Gai to start the fire attack sooner. (He'll retreat earlier, then return to the map sooner. Once he's in position, the southern wind should blow shortly after and you can use the Tactics button to Signal.)

You can take time to defeat Zhang He and his buddies to reinforce the east defense, but they'll hold up on their own.

Ride west to Zhang Fei to take out Xiahou Dun, then Xu Huang and Xun You. Maybe say hi to Zhou Cang if he's still alive and he should hold on for a bit longer.

Or take a larger risk and take Cao Cao down to half Health, triggering the fire attack. Once the cutscene places you on the southern harbor, ride north to take out Cao Cao. Your Change Character/Switch Character and Musou Rage should be ready to go at this point. Watch out for Xu Zhu's Rage mode, with Cao Cao going to do Rage mode in just a bit.

video format using endgame stats without the Bronze Hand Gong, but a Luan weapon is sufficient as well: https://youtu.be/X7524bEu5fo

Honestly you're so right

Shu's version of Battle of Chibi is the easier version. Wu's version is a lot more difficult. Your morale is gonna suck until you initiate the fire attack, so don't bother with the bronze gong. Bring your strongest weapon (Halberd tier 8, or I prefer an upgraded tier 7 with parry+dodge timing up), something like the stamina up item so you can spam your strongest battle art. The limited musou bond item is useful to immediately start an ultimate musou with your partner. Bring the team heal item as the last resort to heal up everyone.

The east side has no important officers so feel free to sacrifice that base and the officers over there. Clear up the west side so the altar is safe even if you're not there to babysit everyone. Zhuge Liang and the officers patrolling the altar can handle 1 officer. 2 is pushing it and 3 is setting you up for failure, though you might still have time to run back to the altar to save them with a fast horse. Use your items to make sure most officers on the west side are gone before you go to Sun Quan and Liu Bei at the center.
After clearing the west side, you should have full ultimate gauge, and ideally your partner as well. Also you should have 1-2 tactics ready to deploy by then. With 2 ultimate musou and the tactics, you can easily wipe out every single officer going after Sun Quan and Liu Bei. Quan and Bei are very squishy and need babysitting until there is absolutely no officer left.

The challenge is to keep around 6 officers alive by the end. I finished with 20+ officers. One trick I do is to trigger ultimate musou when my musou bar is full and do the musou immediately so it only drains half the musou bar, then build up the musou bar so that I have a full bar when I reach Quan and Bei again.

You don't need to kill everyone, just kill the most important/powerful officers (at the left side, Yue Jin, there is Xiahou Yuan, but he just keeps guarding a base, so he's basically harmless, at the right side, Yu Jin, Zhang Liao and Li Dian, and you can duel Li Dian. Later, Zhang He shows up).

Also, I don't want to spoiler, but you can completely ignore Zhou Yu being in danger, no matter if the game warns you to go to his aid, you can leave him alone, he won't die, not even on Ultimate Warrior Difficulty. When Cao Cao's main boat arrives the first thing I do is defeat Xiahou Dun because he will be the most troublesome since he will go after Zhuge Liang (together with 3 officers). After that I defeat Zhang He, who charges at Liu Bei.

Then I keep defeating officers (Xu Huang and other generics in the center) until the fire attack triggers.

Shu side is the easiest side, sometimes I even have time to charge Cao Cao's position to kill some of his officers so they won't be on the final battle after the fire attack triggers

I think Huarong Path (Wei Side) is worse LOL, especially because of the Ultimate Warrior Challenge (7 officers need to survive)

Absolutely lmao. God bless my Red Hare, though it only kinda sucks at the start and everyone just snowballs once they gather up. Power of friendship they say.

Don't bother with gong, the battle is supposed to be like that. The point is just to keep the minimum amount of enemy officers reaching the important people aka Liu Bei, Sun Quan and Zhuge Liang. Zhou Yu and Huang Gai are just faking it so ignore them. Everyone else is dispensable.

On Liu Bei's route, the generic officer that recognizes Zhuge (Wang something), Cao Hong and possibly Yue Jin will converge on the altar. Xiahua Dun accompanies Cao Hong but stays outside for some reason. You should also rush east to take out Li Dian with a duel, then remove as many officers nearby while they have low morale. If you have taken out the important officers, just stay at the main camp to protect Liu Bei and Sun Quan and send your guards to Zhuge. Once Huang Gai reappears, listen to sound of wind blowing or watch out for the wind flow. The wind doesn't change until Huang Gai has reappeared. Zhuge Liang also urges you to fire the signal after one minute or so.

It is much harder on Sun's route. Don't bother with Zheng Liao at first and let Han Dang be taken out. Once Li Dian appears, wait for him to be close enough with Zheng Liao and duel him so you can take out Zheng Liao faster. The main camp should be unbreached at this point, so rush to the altar to take out as many aforementioned officers as you can. Note that Xiahua Dun and Xun You WILL enter the altar on this variant so you should take them out or weaken them. Zhuge should be able to withstand two of these officers if you also send your guards to him. You then stay at the main camp to battle Yu Jin, Zheng He and Zheng Liao if he is still there.

Of course on either route, you are free to help Zhuge if you have secured the main camp, in which case make sure to light the beacon yourself.
