Kowakujō Nekomancer Wonder Weapon Guide

The Nekomancer is Kowakujō's cat Wonder Weapon: a supernatural feline weapon with Spirit Bait, Hairball, and Nekopunch actions. This guide summarizes the current public route, parts, usage, and boss value without copying any single guide's wording.

What is the Nekomancer?

The Nekomancer is a Wonder Weapon featured on Kowakujō, commonly searched online as Kowakujo. Public sources identify it as a two-tailed cat spirit weapon inspired by the Nekomata legend, with ranged spirit damage, a charged hairball attack, and a melee scratch.

Nekomancer Dreadtail Overview

Official patch notes reference the Nekomancer Dreadtail Wonder Weapon blueprint, while the Call of Duty Wiki lists Dreadtail as an Ultra skin for the Nekomancer. Treat Dreadtail as a cosmetic blueprint or skin reference, not a separate quest weapon.

How to Start the Wonder Weapon Quest

GameSpot's route starts after power and Pack-a-Punch are open. Follow the early orange objective markers, unlock Pack-a-Punch, then begin collecting the three quest parts and setting up the Maneki-neko flow.

Required Parts: Furin, Karakuri, and Maneki-neko

  • Furin: one of the three crafting pieces used for the Maneki-neko setup.
  • Karakuri: a toy-like component referenced in public Wonder Weapon routes.
  • Maneki-neko: the cat statue component that becomes central to the cat quest sequence.

Public routes report multiple spawn points for each part. Use the checklist below and split searches in co-op.

Common Spawn and Route Checklist

  • Check Kitchens and nearby Mystery Box routes for cat-related objects.
  • Check Tenshu Entrance for the caged cat interaction after acquiring PhD Flopper.
  • Check Central Courtyard to Kitchens, Kitchens to Flower Gardens, Staging Area to Stables, and Training Area doorways for paw-print progression.
  • Check Kitchens and Training Area interiors when tracking the sleeping cat with Death Perception.
  • Use the World Seed near Pack-a-Punch for the final transformation sequence.

Crafting and Unlock Flow

  1. 1Open power and Pack-a-Punch.
  2. 2Collect Furin, Karakuri, and Maneki-neko parts.
  3. 3Craft the Maneki-neko tactical item at the Workshop route used by current guides.
  4. 4Knock down the caged cat at Tenshu Entrance with PhD Flopper movement.
  5. 5Throw the caged cat into lava and follow the paw-print sequence.
  6. 6Use the Maneki-neko at the paw-print circle and defeat the Abomination.
  7. 7Track and carry the cat to the World Seed, then damage the seed after pulse cycles until the Nekomancer drops.

How to Use the Nekomancer

  • Spirit Bait: the main spirit-shot attack for ranged damage.
  • Hairball: a charged blast used when you need a stronger single shot.
  • Nekopunch: a melee scratch for close enemies.
  • Pack-a-Punch: public sources list stronger behavior and additional ammo after Pack-a-Punch.

Boss Fight Usefulness

Bring the Nekomancer into the boss fight for burst windows and add pressure. Use charged shots when a weak spot is safely exposed, then switch back to movement and survival when lava, fire, or capture-zone pressure forces a rotation.

Common Mistakes

  • Skipping Pack-a-Punch before starting the cat quest route.
  • Using the wrong doorway for paw-print farming.
  • Scaring the sleeping cat during the stealth portion.
  • Dropping the cat while carrying it to the World Seed.
  • Treating Dreadtail as a separate craftable weapon instead of a Nekomancer blueprint or skin reference.
