Scampuss are special NPCs in Nioh 2. These Yokai can be found cowering and hidden, and interacting with them gives a buff to Anima generation. This page features the Locations of all the Scampuss in Nioh 2.
Scampuss in Nioh 2
- "A Scampuss is a yokai in the form of a particularly corpulent cat. While it is known to entangle itself in the legs of passerby, making walking a little more difficult, it is hard to say it poses any real threat. In fact, some people claim an encounter with this fleshy feline soothes their weary bodies, among other pleasant effects."
- "Similar to Scampuss are yokai like Obo and Notsugo, which resemble other animals such as weasels or dogs. It is said that these yokai were once babies or young children who suffered untimely deaths, and thus rub themselves against strangers in search of their mother's warmth."
- "A Scampuss who is treated with cruelty is quite the sight, as its anger causes it to swell up like a puffer fish. As it remains harmless even in this angered state, there are those who go out of their way to torment the poor yokai, thinking its appearance amusing. One can only hope that these unkind souls will eventually reap what they sow."

A little hidden origin of this: back in 2002 there was a game called Ragnarok online, our guild leader created fatty chubby kitties and was in the video game bushiness. She later was the creator of scampuss. Happy to see her vision come to life after all these years.

"Beaten to death by Scampuss" - most silly in-game death ever, if only those yokais were actual enemies. LMAO.

How long is the timer for these little guys? I was super disappointed when I was responding to a message and looked up to see it had disappeared, I should've paused :(

Just a side note for anyone curious, if you find multiple scampusses in a map, you can interact with them and gain multiple scampuss followers. They each add their own anima recharge and will attack on their own. The most I've had so far is 3 at once following me around. Also, petting a second scampuss seems to reset the timer, but makes the time shorter for each new scampuss buddy you add.
