You might finish all of theTengu’s DiscipleDLC missions in one go, butNioh 2‘s newly-added Dream of the Demon mode is going to be a weeks-long time-sink for many of us. After hearing about the reward for clearing the base game on New Game++ difficulty, I’m committed: I’ve gotta see this through.
As posted by Reddit userZippygup, the reward for clearing every main mission inNioh 2on Dream of the Demon difficulty (minusOnline Missions) is the Smithing Text needed to craft theScampuss Hat.
It’s exactly what it sounds like: a cat hat!
Ladies and Gentlemen… the best piece of armor in the game:fromr/Nioh
Another player,rileykard, says they got a Scampuss Hat from a Demon Parade Picture Scroll mission “where you get three Scampuss right at the start. After I completed the mission I could refashion into it.”
Cosmetic appeal aside, the Scampuss Hat’s special effect is Untouched Clay Bell of Reckoning. I love the idea of showing up to a boss fight with a cat on my head and a few more rolling behind me.
As for Dream of the Demon, it’s no walk in the park – at least not with my currently under-leveled build. The recommended player level for the first story mission, the Village of Cursed Blossoms, is 250. Funnily enough, I beat Gozuki and Mezuki no problem, but a random Gaki took me down. Savage.
Whether or not I ever hit 100% completion, I’m already stoked about my drops in DotD so far.
