Alternate Musou Attack
When your Musou meter is full, press Circle to begin the attack. Then. release Circle and press Square rapidly. Your character will stop their regular Musou attack and hit the enemies with stronger versions of their charge attacks. This is especially useful with characters such as Nobunaga, that have erratic Musou attacks that only work against large groups.
