Yoki is an Enemy in Nioh 2. Yoki is a large, warrior-like Yokai that attacks with several types of weapons and the power of its brutal strength. It is encountered from the early missions of Nioh 2.
Enemy Description
- A human turned fiend by the power of Amrita. Also known as a form of oni, a muscular, horned humanoid dwelling in the mountains. The Shuten-doji is the most famous; so too are the oni who are fought by Momotaro, the Peach Boy. Every February in Japan, a ritual called Setsubun is undertaken where citizens scatter beans to drive away oni and pray for good health.
- The power of Amrita is double-edged sword. If used improperly, or with evil intent, it has the power to transform the user into a fiend. A fiend is far stronger than a human but devoid of rationality, they can only follow their instincts to attack any who happen across their path.

The soul core ability makes you feel like a total badass. It's a grab attack that any human enemy cannot guard against.

It's funny, at first the Kusarigama and Dual Katana Yoki were scary but now the old single sword ones keep me so passive and defensive because of that almost instant grab they use at very close range lol

These guys have gotten much nastier since the last game. Now they can boot you in the face, and their slash combo moves them forward an insane distance - making it very hard to get out of its way.
