Yamamura the Wanderer ❘ 流浪の狩人、ヤマムラ

NPC

Description

    This Eastern warrior pursued a beast for honourable
    revenge, then became a hunter of the League. But when he
    stared straight into impurity, it drove him mad.
  • A transient warrior from an Eastern land who became a hunter after arriving in Yharnam. Yamamura's mission began with the goal of honorable revenge and ended in tragedy - he eventually fell in with the League of Confederates, but was unprepared for the revelations that awaited among their ranks and ultimately lost his sanity when faced with the abject impurity of mankind. You'll find him locked in a cell immediately to the left of the stairwell connecting the Underground Corpse Pile to the Underground Cell, repeating a prayer out loud while banging his head on the wall. When you obtain the Underground Cell Key you can enter Yamamura's cell and release him from his suffering with a swift coup de grace to obtain his equipment and access him as a summoned ally for several boss fights.

Location

  • Hunter's Nightmare Underground Cells, inside the first cell to your left.

Stats & Equipment

  • Tables below consist of datamined stats and equipment, this specific information is for NPCs, hunters or less, that uses a player-like human model and skeleton, practically every NPC that can be equipped with player's gears. Some characters are equipped with items that they aren't programmed to use by the AI, such items are highlighted. All characters have infinite Quicksilver Bullets and 99 copies of any item they hold (including Blood Vials) and the only thing that prevents from infinitely consuming them is written in their AI script. For information about all characters visit Datamined NPCs Stats & Equipment wiki page.

Progression

1.
Hunter's Nightmare Underground Cell [Night / Blood Moon]
You can hear his ever repeating dialogue through the cell door.
2.
Hunter's Nightmare Underground Cell [Night / Blood Moon]
When you acquire Underground Cell Key access his cell and kill him to receive his equipment. Bringing a merciful end to his torment also enables you to summon his spirit to assist you with several boss fights. Alternatively it's possible to kill Yamamura without ever opening his cell. Beast Cutter's R2 can reach him through the door (turn your back to the door and turn around just as you hit)

Old Hunter Summon

With patch v1.07 a wide variety of new and existing NPCs have been added to the main game, the Old Hunters areas and the Chalice Dungeons to aid you during the hunt, particularly during boss fights. The conditions for summoning these allies vary; the “Old Hunter Bell” is a universal requirement for calling any of them.
Location Requirement
1.
Darkbeast Paarl in Old Yharnam
In order to summon Yamamura for all boss fights, you must first kill him in the Hunter's Nightmare and equip the "Impurity" rune. You can summon either Yamamura or Antal to assist you in battle against Darkbeast Paarl and The One Reborn, but not both simultaneously.
In plain sight along the path to the Graveyard of the Darkbeast after dropping from the cave exit.
2.
The One Reborn in Yahar'gul, Unseen Village
Behind a carriage on the left side of the road a short distance before the boss room.
3.
Living Failures in Research Hall
In plain view immediately to the right of the boss room entrance.

Drops

  • Yamamura Hunter Hat [100%], Khaki Haori [100%], Old Hunter Arm Bands [100%], Wine Hakama [100%]
  • + Blood Dreg x1 [100%] when Corruption is equipped

Notes

  • This NPC is part of The Old Hunters DLC.
  • Killing him will unlock Yamamura as summonable Old Hunter NPC
  • Yamamura can be repositioned with the use of Beast Roar, he can't be pushed further into the hallway (invisible wall), if you try to take him into the Underground Corpse Pile he will disappear at the end of the staircase and reappear inside his cell on his initial position. [image 01 & image 02]
  • It is believed that name Yamamura is tribute to Chikage Yamamura mentioned in Special Thanks section of the ending credits, given this NPC also wields Chikage.

First encounter
Shrouded by night, but with steady stride. Colored by blood, but always clear of mind. Proud hunter of the Church. Beasts are a curse, and a curse is a shackle. Only ye are the true blades of the Church.
