💀

[lilac linden]

Bro was like "I saw Jesus once"

[vestal ferry]

8 days.... and then game glitched out at 10k years old and i couldn't pick up or interact with anything 🙁 i was sad

[tough storm]

8 days of just sitting

[bright badge]

I would like to see a rework of all the cursed objects some day, Ouija and monkey paw are really cool and engaging
Tarot are cool but unreliable
The rest are pretty meh to me

[lime token]

So i know where all your hours in game went to lol

[tough storm]

Music box.. is a easy eay to get killed

[lilac linden]

My biggest buzzkill was trying the summoning circle before I knew it cost me sanity.. two candles wouldn't light, and I was at 0 before I realized what was happening.

[mint pebble]

Summoning circle when its already hunting

[vestal ferry]

it's not that much compared to what i usually do

[vestal ferry]

aren't you glad they reworked ouji all those years ago

[lime holly]

Im afraid to leave my computer running phas that long lol

[lime token]

Free hour generator!

[bright badge]

Very glad :>

Mirror would be really cool if it showed ghost pov

[vestal ferry]

it shows Orbs POV currently

it used to be center room and that was annoying

[lime token]

We need another cursed object that helps with bone

[lilac linden]

You think maybe that'd be too op? You'd get ghost speed and wall travel..

[vestal ferry]

outside of hunts all ghosts are same speed

[bright badge]

Only if used during a hunt, you could balance around that

[vestal ferry]

mirror... 50/50 it's showing bone room or ghost room. go figure it out

[mossy mason]

or the bone could just be removed

i wouldnt miss it ngl

[lilac linden]

But like a wraith travels through walls.. it would be an immediate tell.

[lime token]

Or just make all bones like the sunny meadows one rn but with extra spots

[mint pebble]

TP

😭

Instant death

[bright badge]

Pretty sure it doesn't, the journal just says that

[lime holly]

Bone is actually a pretty important item for perfect games on 0ev

With such limited options I would want more photo options before bone gets removed

[lime token]

Salt particle

[lilac linden]

You know Ridgeview upstairs?
I had a wraith in the bathroom travelling from the nursery to the other bedroom.

We blocked all the doors with salt.

[bright badge]

Uh... Wraith doesn't disturb salt

it walked right over it

[lilac linden]

And I used a parabolic, it triggered a ghost event, I saw it move through the wall at me in Maple lodge.. I was in the office, and I have it set to change favorite room none, it was in the lodge..

Guaranteed passes through walls.

[vestal ferry]

it doesn't walk through walls.... it teleports to a player with ability

[lilac linden]

Explain the moving from outside the wall to through the wall, to in my face?..

[vestal ferry]

all ghosts will do that "go through walls" when there is latency since it's showing itself before it gets to new location sorta deal with teleporting of ghosts events

[lilac linden]

This was different..

[vestal ferry]

all ghosts teleport for ghost events. that's how it works

[lilac linden]

This was travelling.. moving through..

[vestal ferry]

you just saw it due to a latency thing.

You said it was a ghost event. that's what it was.

you may also see this same thing happen after a hunt is done when it teleports back to fav room. Any ghost

[lilac linden]

Right, but I've seen a few. I've seen them stand in places, walk paths and explode things.. never through a wall, not until that wraith..

[vestal ferry]

cause teleports isn't instant. it is a max speed travel to a location.

[lilac linden]

I swear.. this was different..

[vestal ferry]

it's not different. i know exactly what you are talking about.

seen it many times. can see it on peoples streams as well. it's just a latency/timing issue with the teleport and visibility of ghost.

[lilac linden]

Idk.. cause when I ticked all the boxes and saw wraith, I had a facepalm, it went through a wall, I should've known just from that right?

[vestal ferry]

nope since any ghost does that due to the latency issues

all ghosts teleport for ghost events and when returning to fav room after a hunt/cruciburn

[worthy wraith]

So, what am I doing wrong? Earned the latest drops on twitch, claimed them, phasmo is already linked (got the last badge np), load into phasmo, play a game, get out of lobby, still haven't gotten them. What step am I missing here?

[vestal ferry]

check pins

[bright badge]

The Journal says that as flavor text to explain the teleport
The Journal is pretty iffy, take everything it says with a huge grain of salt

[worthy wraith]

Danke

[vestal ferry]

the journal says that as a hint to it's teleport ability. that's all. people assume walk through walls due to it teleporting to players.

nice little hint text in my opinion.

[lilac linden]

I've only been playing two months.. I haven't seen the game before the quality of life updates.

[vestal ferry]

tbf.. the journal entries haven't changed

[lilac linden]

no but the program has, the maps and tools have..

[bright badge]

They need to
I don't think they are as bad as many people think but the wording needs to change on a lot of the ghosts

I am sure they will change the journal when the lore update drops

[vestal ferry]

it's an investigation game.... i find it to be charming that it's hints to their ability but not a full on tell

[lilac linden]

I learned a word I forgot for fear of noises thanks to that journal

[bright badge]

I agree with that, The problem is that several of the entries have straight up misinfo in there

[vestal ferry]

like "hey i found this shit online for these ghosts!!!" and some of the folklore has slight truths in it.

[vestal ferry]

like what?

[lilac linden]

I keep wondering at which point talking through my mic will summon a ghost to my room :/

[cedar shoal]

And it’s supposed to be a survival guide, I understand the idea of hinting but a noob will not pick up these hints, I feel like if the journal isn’t going to give a noob a direct answer than it’s a useless guide

[bright badge]

"Phantom is a ghost that can possess the living" is a big one that I have seen lots of people bring up

[vestal ferry]

well... duh... that's why it's an investigation part comes in... you learn. you test. you deduce

[lilac linden]

I'd like to see that happen actually.

[vestal ferry]

"can" being a big word there. doesn't mean will

[bright badge]

Shout out to it also saying they are commonly summoned from Ouija boards, I have seen people SWEAR that having a ouija on the map meant it was more likely to be phantom

[cedar shoal]

That’s the problem, noobs don’t they die.

[vestal ferry]

again "commonly"

[lime token]

Yokai being more commonly found in family homes

[vestal ferry]

like there is key words mixed in people gloss over then take it as absolute for some reason

[lilac linden]

I can attest that yes. I died quite a bit.

[lime token]

Hantus being a rare ghost

[vestal ferry]

part of the learning process no?

[lilac linden]

Panic is big part of dying...

[bright badge]

Onryo "steals souls from dying victims' bodies to seek revenge"

[vestal ferry]

also note. just cause game mechanic wise all ghosts are equal doesn't mean that that is the Norm for the world at large in the game. Remember... our company redistributes the ghosts... it's in their name

[lilac linden]

by lighting and turning off firelights and getting mad at that

[vestal ferry]

there can def be a lot of truth in the journals that just don't apply to Us specifically cause of the proffession and how the ghosts are coming about for us to go find

[lilac linden]

Yokai are sorta annoying too right? you need spirit box, but if you talk to it, you might have to run.

[vestal ferry]

Raiju needing a lot of electronics for evidence is ironic isn't it

[vague echo]

yokai kinda fun 🤑

[lilac linden]

yea! these ghosts are like.. so angry.. at themselves...

[cedar shoal]

This is very confusing

[cedar shoal]

It’s full of very confusing things for a player with no knowledge of this game. From my experience the book has not helped new players very much but that’s just me

[bright badge]

My thing about the journal is, I want people to read the entries and use them but its well known how much of it is very misleading
its not a tool for players like us, its for the newbs who don't go learn everything about the game and its mechanics. I am ok with it being vague but it needs to be reliable

[lilac linden]

Makes me think of "It" actually.. in a way.. denying the dying of the afterlife as revenge..

[vestal ferry]

what part of Investigative doesn't make sense.... it's a learning process... gotta learn

[cedar shoal]

And I’ve heard new players say the same

[vestal ferry]

i've heard new players get their info from the cheatsheet and still be confused...

so... yeah

[cedar shoal]

Yes I agree, but new players expect an answer from reading the journal that’s the problem

[lilac linden]

Yep! guilty!
I still don't understand speeds... and still getting the hang of "unique behaviours"

I am noticing a lot tho.
The journal is right about salt pissing off wraiths.
putting it down seems to trigger it more.

[thorn spruce]

Ive heard new players get their info from the journal and become utterly confused xD

[vestal ferry]

i've seen new players come in here... read the #1254568921110024254 and cheat sheet and get everything wrong... and they never seen the journal entries

[lilac linden]

Who updates the interactive maps?

[thorn spruce]

Insym is the wayy

[vestal ferry]

yeah we have several commands due to his misinfo particularly

[bright badge]

Orbs follow the ghost

[lilac linden]

wait what?

[lime token]

Mimic orbs following the ghost goes hard

[vestal ferry]

-twinteraction

[prime elk]

Note! The "twinteraction" activity level is not a game mechanic and the activity board cannot be used to guarantee a specific Ghost type or evidence type.

While it can be used to assist in identifying The Twins, all Ghosts are able to replicate such a pattern in activity.

Any failed attempts using this method cannot be filed as a bug report as it is not a mechanic. If this is reported or discussed as a real game mechanic, your messages will be deleted and actioned on accordingly.

[vestal ferry]

had to sorry

[bright badge]

I think that Twinteraction has died down, I rarely see it

[lilac linden]

No it's good.. I look at insym videos to get some ideas.. but he plays with the devs?

[vestal ferry]

it has. it used to auto get posted anytime it was mentioned cause it was that bad

[thorn spruce]

Everyones gotta start somewhere. Having like 95% of the stuff correct is better than...following the journal blindly.

[vestal ferry]

he does but it doesn't mean he is right... like CJ tells him something is wrong.. and insym continues to spread the misinfo anyway like CJ told him twins aren't unique to the board... and he continued to spread it anyway

[lilac linden]

I was so looking forward to just find two ghost rooms... I'm actually very disappointed.

[vestal ferry]

maybe i'm biased since at the begining in 2020, i went with the journal and testing things out instead of looking things up. cause... Investigation games are my jam

[bright badge]

People around here are very quick to tell you "Twins aren't two ghosts"

[vestal ferry]

it's like an elfien lied girl.... 2 sets of arms

[lilac linden]

The more often I get twins, and the more often I see nothing happening anywhere else in the house.. the more I realize...

[thorn spruce]

I used to be super bad at twins speed. Getting slightly better now xd

[bright badge]

I hope we can get a rework to the twins, they should be more like 2 ghosts
Lorewise it is 2 ghosts

[lilac linden]

and it would make it more interesting. everyone once in a while you might have two ghost rooms, two ghosts, and depending on which you find first, you might never know.

[thorn spruce]

When i first started with a friend, we played 3 games and we just kept dying on Amateur. Quit the game since we were so bad XDD

[lime token]

Ghost type: The Triplets

[lilac linden]

Why not just straight up: Legion?

[cedar shoal]

3 ghosts in one game? What would be awesome

No decoys real ghosts

[vestal ferry]

they are 2 ghosts conjoined

[bright badge]

Good way to think of it, not reflected in the journal or gameplay though

[vestal ferry]

i mean it's still twins

[lilac linden]

You guys seen Ghost Wars on Netflix? There's a girl who kinda adopts her sister's soul while her sister's body's possessed..
Kinda like that.

Two souls, one body.

[soft sapphire]

footprints count as uv right?

even if it doesn't show on doors?

[vestal ferry]

if you see it with UV it's UV

[cedar shoal]

I don’t see how that could be bad for the game, the devs should actually do 2 ghosts it would be unique

[soft sapphire]

was gaslighting myself into thinking footprints isn't uv

[bright badge]

Used to not be, so valid

[vestal ferry]

it's why they changed it from Finger Prints to UV

[soft sapphire]

thanks guys <3

cause i had a demon, gave me footsteps but it opened a closet door and didn't give me fingerprints so i was gaslighting myself into thinking it wasnt uv

[lilac linden]

I often have the reverse issue. I'll have fingerprints but somehow the footprints won't show up.

[tropic raven]

oh my god deogens are so funny

edge house map living room, I was testing based on hunt behavior since i was too lazy for evidence. it was really fast, and the moment it got close to me it was very slow

then i realized there was a camera on the floor and picked it up while looping it and recorded a video

[winter forge]

question can console player be heard by the ghost? like i know we can't use psirit box what about talking to the ghost?

[lilac linden]

L1 push to talk I think. you can check the settings

[vestal ferry]

you can use spirit box... and they always could hear you

[winter forge]

i was told that we can't use it while moving around

wont work have to be key setting

[vestal ferry]

that's if you are using text to speach

[winter forge]

ooh

[vestal ferry]

need to swap to voice recognition mode to Voice

[winter forge]

for console? playstation?

[cedar shoal]

Go to your game settings I believe and there should be a voice recognition that you can change from text to voice

[orchid laurel]

Has anyone else played phas and somehow died to the ghost with the door open

[cedar shoal]

No I haven’t

[winter forge]

omg thank you

[orchid laurel]

Well it was a glitch and it was the Xbox demo

[cedar shoal]

No problem glad to help

[cedar shoal]

Yeah I don’t know, I’m the wrong person to ask

[vestal ferry]

maybe latency occured where you died before the front door closed. lol.
but what demo? game is early access right now

[orchid laurel]

I mean I was just curious

[orchid laurel]

This is what happened the was willow and I was behind the bins in the living room hiding and someone was messing with door and ghost appeared so I thought it was an event but it was actually hunting

No I own it

[cedar shoal]

Never mind I thought you said that

[orchid laurel]

Oh

[vestal ferry]

well phas isn't a demo... it's early access

but if you believe you had a bug then #bug-reports

[orchid laurel]

Are photos allowed on this channel

[vestal ferry]

#screenshots

[cedar shoal]

It has to be phas related

[orchid laurel]

It was a game preview is that early

[cedar shoal]

When posting in #screenshots

[cedar shoal]

Yes, that’s early access, it’s called different on pc

[vestal ferry]

yes xbox calls early access that for some stupid reason

[orchid laurel]

Oh ok

[sudden kite]

Is anyone running into multiple consecutive blood moons right now? I’m on 5x in a row. Not sure if I should be putting in a bug report or not

[vestal ferry]

everyone knows it's called early access but sony and xbox decided to use 2 seperate terms for stupid arragant reasons

[orchid laurel]

Probably just insane luck based on how you look at it

[vestal ferry]

just rng. gg

[sudden kite]

Dang. That’s some insane odds then

[orchid laurel]

Indeed

Random question I was thinking of if you guys had a phasmophobia map of your house how good would it be

[tropic raven]

Nice try feds you’re not getting a PICTURE OF MY HOSYEW

[cedar shoal]

Nice and pretty 🤩

[ancient ice]

Has anyone else notice an RNG skew with the new Grafton? I have played the map 20 times now and 16 of the 20 times the cursed object was the ouija board and 18 out of the 20 times the breaker was in the upstairs location.

[vestal ferry]

just rng. good job

[tropic raven]

Idk Grafton is really random for me

I never get the oija board

[cedar shoal]

I always get upstairs hallway, makes me loose my mind

[slim whale]

👋

[tidal finch]

So what have I been confused about all these years, I just had an onryo blow out my lighter at least 20 times in a row and not once did it hunt

[proven blaze]

doesnt it have to be a candle

i could be absolutely wrong

i dont know either

[tidal finch]

To my knowledge a lighter counts as a candle

[proven blaze]

hmm

[thorn spruce]

Isnt ur lighter preventing it from hunting? Xd

[tidal finch]

On the third blow out it hunts, it never did

Just simply did not happen

[proven blaze]

yes but it also cant hunt with a lit flame

if you relight your lighter before it can start a hunt

it might just keep preventing it

[tidal finch]

But it immediately hunts on the third

[vestal ferry]

flames block a hunt as well

it can have a 6 second delay after every 3rd flame is blown out

[tidal finch]

Makes sense now, where did you even find that out

[vestal ferry]

long time playing and being in community

[tidal finch]

I don’t think the wiki has that information

[vestal ferry]

also #1254568921110024254 and cheat sheet pinned in #fan-creations is resources you can use

[tidal finch]

Unless I never read it

[orchid laurel]

Does anyone know an easy way to learn ghost’s hunting traits for 15x

[vestal ferry]

^^^ look above

those 2 resources are great

[tidal finch]

Orrr watch insyms videos about it

[orchid laurel]

Ok

[tidal finch]

Are you trying to do apoc 3?

[real sandal]

Ive never felt so afraid in my life. Sunny Meadows, blood moon, 300% sanity drain, my friends cameras are screwed and he can't look at the cctv, this ghost is normal speed, I'm gonna cry

[vestal ferry]

??? 300%???

[orchid laurel]

No I can’t rn but I just want to know just so I can get money fast if I need it

I have the customs tho

[tidal finch]

The best way to get money would be with an 11.47x on camp woodwind

[vestal ferry]

unless you used sanity wish, moroi curse... uhhhhhh... no that doesn't add up to 300% anyway

[orchid laurel]

Yea I figured woodwind

I’m probably gonna get off now so gn

[tidal finch]

Just use the apoc 3 preset and then change the ghost and player speed to normal and turn on sprinting, much easier than 15x and it’s also a good way to learn about the ghost without breaking a part of your setup

[orchid laurel]

Ok

[cedar shoal]

Insym won’t help much I would use the resource that Harleen has provided

[tidal finch]

Insym explains all the core behaviours of ghosts and uses examples with them so for someone just starting to learn about ghosts I would say insyms videos would be more useful and less of an overload

Those resources are more niche

[cedar shoal]

Did you not know that? Blood moon adds 100% on top of the current sanity drain

[cedar shoal]

He does help, but not for apoc challenges very much that’s a grey area.

[tidal finch]

Nothing helps for that

[cedar shoal]

That’s just no true

[tidal finch]

Identifying the ghost is not the problem with apoc

[cedar shoal]

There is plenty to be learnt from apoc

[tidal finch]

Getting the ghost on apoc is easy

It’s the objectives and photos

[cedar shoal]

That’s not even that hard either

[tidal finch]

The 3 unique photos and crucifix are a pain

[cedar shoal]

Nah, just take a trip to the ghost room

[tidal finch]

That is easier said than done if you get a kitchen or basement ghost

[cedar shoal]

Kitchen? if you have tier 3 that’s not horrible yes it sucks but it’s not the end of the world, and the basement is great, mainly hospital wing

[tidal finch]

The basement is terrible, unless you got crazy luck but majority of the time for me whenever I got a basement ghost I’d get hunted as soon as I stepped in there

First room on the right is the goat

[cedar shoal]

Yes, hospital wing has tons of hiding spots available for grabs

[jagged dune]

there is a locked door in the farmhouse , challenge

[tidal finch]

Those are all a gamble

[cedar shoal]

A locked hiding spot?

[tidal finch]

Sometimes they work sometimes they don’t, for me personally they never worked

[cedar shoal]

I never die in them it works for me 🤷‍♂️

[jagged dune]

the door is locked

[cedar shoal]

That means the hiding spot isn’t available

[tidal finch]

Yeah, same applies for point hope

I rate the name

Couldn’t agree more

[cedar shoal]

If it’s hiding spots your talking about then yes all closets seem to just be locked instead of blocked

[cedar shoal]

That map sucks

[tidal finch]

It’s so buns

And unfortunately the one map badge I like the most is point hope

[cedar shoal]

gg

[tidal finch]

I have yet to motivate myself to go through 50 games of hell for that badge

[cedar shoal]

I personally just went in with a 0x custom and sped the whole thing

With 3 evi

[tidal finch]

That’s what my idea was initially but I wasn’t sure if 0x multiplier would count towards winning a game and I never bothered to test it

Since point hope is just that much of a pain

[cedar shoal]

Yes, it counts as long you get the ghost correct and survive

[tidal finch]

Might try do that before I prestige then, don’t see myself ever willingly wanting to play point hope again

[cedar shoal]

When I do random apoc 3 games I always get point garbage

[tidal finch]

I hate apoc 3 on any map purely because I have a banshee + no grace period curse

[patent snow]

RIP

[tidal finch]

80% of my games are a banshee spawning on my head

[vestal ferry]

cruci then

be prepared... for banshee, wraith, or phantom. at all times

[tidal finch]

It always happens as soon as I walk away from the cruci

[vestal ferry]

well carry the cruci

[patent snow]

The most important piece of equipment in all of phasmo 😭

[tidal finch]

I do but it always catches me off guard, the one time I happen to not be holding it is the one time a banshee will spawn on my head

Ill be busy placing down a candle and I just die as if I had pulled a hanged man card

Something goofy like that

[vestal ferry]

gotta learn from mistakes

[tidal finch]

No you don’t understand, that banshee is genuinely out to get me, It will get to a point where it’s so unlikely for it to be a banshee because it just never roamed and then all of a sudden when I think I’m good is when it strikes

The banshee curse is real

[patent snow]

your cursed to the banshee for all eternity 😭

It's the same with me but, it ain't banshee's it's damn demons 😭

[tidal finch]

My games have been very interesting lately

Had an onryo boot a tray across the map like a poltergeist

Swear the onryo has a higher normal amount of throwing

[patent snow]

That onryo has a bit of anger i think 😭

[tidal finch]

Like in between a normal ghost and a poltergeist

I also had a jinn do a wraith ability

[patent snow]

what is a normal ghost atp 💀 they're all out there to kill you

[tidal finch]

The jinn is even more of a curse

Everytime I play apoc 3 but with normal speeds and sprinting I happen to get a jinn

And then randomly I get emf 2 right on top of me so I assume wraith

[patent snow]

I haven't done apoc 3 to much of a whuss

[tidal finch]

But no it’s a jinn

[tidal finch]

Just spend a whole week of your time praying for the stars to align where you get easy objectives and a deo

[patent snow]

I think I might just not play it 😭

My luck is just gone, and on a jet 2 holiday 😭

[tidal finch]

Yeah whats really demotivating is when you get the 3 easiest objectives and a deo but your photography skills were out the gate and you run out of photos and deletes so you never get a ghost photo

That made me want to sell my pc

[surreal sentinel]

Anyone wanna play

[torn garnet]

Are there plans for optimization for console players? I can't play any of the new maps because it drops my frames by a lot, and eventually my game crashes or my xbox overheats, leading to an automatic shutdown. Like, I can run monster hunter wilds with 60 frames with no trouble, a game notorious for it's bad optimization. It's kind of telling that a ghost hunting game overheats my xbox fast enough to reboot it

[wide rock]

unfortunately, like anything it can be a range of factors causing your Xbox to shit the bed. Phasmo works like a charm for all of my console mates but I guess you copped the short straw

[patent snow]

What console type of xbox you playin on?

[torn garnet]

Series X

[torn garnet]

I'm 100% sure it isn't client side. I've played games with really high optics on this thing and literally never experienced an automatic shut down due to overheating until phas released the new bleasdale. I didn't even know it could overheat that much

[wide rock]

I'm assuming you would've gone to the extent of doing a completely hard redownload for phasmo

[torn garnet]

I can try that, but I'm not sure what that would accomplish. It's still the same version of the game

[wide rock]

Could have a faulty save file for example

It can be anything

[torn garnet]

It's pretty clear that it's the insane amount of assets on both of the new maps. Especially on bleasdale, I get an insane framerate drop when I go up the stairs. Those dropping frames are usually what happen right before it overheats my console

[vestal ferry]

i mean... the dropped frames are from it overheating and the console trying to do what it can to prevent that.
is your console in a well ventalated area that isn't blocking the intake/exhaust?

[steep pelican]

Harleen! Hai =3

[torn garnet]

Yep. Completely out in the open and in a cool room. Like I said, optimization is needed if the game puts such a big load on my console for these maps

[vestal ferry]

honestly... i dunno my guy... if it was a common issue i'm sure more people would be in here saying so...
it really could be anything... i know xbox and sony been having major issues this gen with over heating issues in general... thanks to their piss poor application of the liquid metal.

[patent snow]

I play on the series s I don't know why your xbox overheats? is it something to do with the data itself?? or has it not been taken care of properly???

or is it the ventalator that's been blocked which is making it overheat?

[torn garnet]

No blockage. Not sure what type of care I could do to make it easier on my xbox. I'm really hoping its an issue with the save file because it definitely isn't my xbox. Phas is the only game ive had this issue with

[lime nymph]

Your save will have nothing to do with the games performance

[torn garnet]

That's what I assumed, which is why I wasn't sure how reinstalling the game will fix it

[lime nymph]

Ideally reinstall phas and clear all cached data you have for it on your console and see what happens

A dodgy shader can definitely kill your fps and cause issues

[torn garnet]

Dodgy shader?

[lime nymph]

Most games when they are first launched generate shaders and other graphic components so you load quicky, if one of the cached shaders is broken youll crash when lauching into a map

[torn garnet]

Interesting. That's definitely a possibility

[lime nymph]

Could be something simple as the devs are using a new type of shader and the games still pulling from the old ones, causing a mismatch and crashing your hardware

[thorn spruce]

I feel like regardless of ur internet speed, stability, hardware or region, it seems that from time to time u would DC xD. Like its really rarely to crash, but it happens somehow.

[torn garnet]

It's more that im seeing a pattern that its on phasmo on those specific maps. Never once owning an xbox has it auto shut down due to overheating, I didn't even know it was a safeguard tbh

Ive played games with a way higher load but phas is the only game where I lag or crash for some reason or another

[lime nymph]

Do some troubleshooting and see if it happens again, if it does Id take it into a ticket and report it. If it is something that affects your console type then its onto the hands of the devs to see how they can fix it

[torn garnet]

Will do

How do I send a ticket?

[lime nymph]

#bug-reports

[torn garnet]

Thanks

[modern mauve]

atm it's #1082421799578521620

But there is an option in bug reports for tech issues

[hasty furnace]

ghost hunts
i survive
checks sanity, its over 90%
it has to be a demon
||forgets to check for any fake orbs||
its a mimic

brutal, i cost myself an easy game

[bright spear]

For me, mimic starts as revenant, then go phantom. Last it go to deogen mode. I died in closet

[midnight mortar]

is it still possible to claim the twitch drops? the game says its until 26th of august but twitch says it was only until the 15th

[vestal ferry]

there should be the non foil version available

i think

[midnight mortar]

thats weird then because nothing is in my twitch inventory anymore

[vestal ferry]

yeah it's available till the 26th. looking at it right now on twitch

[slim whale]

You are a good thinker :o

[rotund pine]

[rotund pine]

thank youu

[mint pebble]

Dont he will get your ass

[sudden wren]

which equipment is better when its less than tier 3?

[young inlet]

Shhhh 🤫 he want know!

[young inlet]

dont think there is any

[sudden wren]

i remembered t1 thermo being the ebst

[young inlet]

oh ye

[upbeat quartz]

i was going through the 2024 roadmap when i saw hallucinations as feature for phasmophobia in 1.0 release...but it never got a disclosure as far as i know...will it be included in horror 2.0 or smth like that ?

it will so good of a feature with the sanity thing...as sanity drains more and more...you will see hallucinations or schizophrenic whispering and all

[young inlet]

what if phas used a multi rendering feat?

[vestal ferry]

i dont think so... causse.. uh... like... people.... like in game... used them to write things... like in real life.. and in bleasedale

[young inlet]

like rtx for better hardware, but as a graphics option instead of making it hard to play on worse hardware with its current renderer

[thick osprey]

but like horror game and stuff1! (im losing it)

[vestal ferry]

1.0 is still a ways off and part of the horror 2.0 stuff. look at the wallpaper in bleasedale for a hint of the type of things they will do

[vestal ferry]

i mean... they are clearly old places with old people... using the tech they would have used... i mean writers in modern day still use typewriters.. some do.. i know a few do.. and 1 that still uses an OG macintosh cause... uhhh it's what they do and they are pretensious

[upbeat quartz]

man i cant wait what interesting things they are trying to bring in horror 2.0....i will absolutely love new death animations or events....like even adding crawling ceiling ghosts and with respective death animations and hunt sequences

tired of the same death animation

[heavy bear]

yeah........

[upbeat quartz]

maybe even let other players in multiplayer see the death animation of the player...like the ghost possessing and snapping their necks

[vestal ferry]

i mean we shall see what they do when they have the new player models and ghost models

[zinc coyote]

I hope we get a playermodel shaped like Danny Davito

[quiet briar]

I hope we get some more references and easter eggs as part of horror 2.0 as well

like that mannequin room is clearly a reference to whatever game or movie did it first (no it wasn’t fnaf thats for sure)

[harsh stirrup]

lol

[jaunty geyser]

hi

[harsh stirrup]

Hello again

[wooden robin]

T1 thermo is now horrible, T3 is better. T2 UV is better than T3 UV. T2 headgear is better than T3 headgear (imo)

[vernal breach]

How to lvl up fast?

[zinc coyote]

Play customs

[vernal breach]

example?

[zinc coyote]

And dont die

[zinc coyote]

11x + is good for xp

[vernal breach]

i ment as a total beginner lvl up

[zinc coyote]

Just play the highest difficulty you can or join people doing higher difficultys

[vernal breach]

okii

[burnt vortex]

Wouldn’t recommend playing too many customs for a beginner, you lose interest fast

[prisma laurel]

So play apoc 3 50 times?

[burnt vortex]

I mean by high multiplicity

Like 10x+

[prisma laurel]

[jagged dune]

Profesional, get ghost till 50 and dont die, if you use tier 1 stuff only then even if you die you alwase get exp

[deft sand]

is it possible for someone to be prestige XX level 800 ??

i mean is it feasible to get that

[fallow copper]

maybe but probably not if its one of them ppl with offsite links and stuff like "free exp" etc they mostlikely exploiting the games files/scripting/hacking

[zinc coyote]

Very much so. Plenty of people are over xx800 legitimately

[mint copper]

How do you detect a yurei?

[zinc coyote]

-yurei

[prime elk]

<:btYurei:917888372830261278> Yurei

The Yurei has been known for its drastic effect on player's Sanity, more than other Ghosts you may encounter.

Strengths

A Yurei may attack more often due to its ability to have a stronger effect on your Sanity.

Weaknesses

Cleansing this Ghost will trap it, and reduce how much it wanders for a short period of time. Its power is useless in a room with no doors.

Have a question? Ask! The Phasmophobia wikipage is an unreliable source.

[deft sand]

ah okay

[zinc coyote]

Quite a few regulars here are over xx800 too, not extremely uncommon

[mint copper]

Oop nvm

[zinc coyote]

Theyll always full close or open a door

Doesnt include lockers or closets

[mint copper]

Others dont full close?

Or jus not always

There is also this double tap on door thingy

[zinc coyote]

They can, just always. Yurei is always

Its only the only ghost that can touch the front entrance door outside of events/ hunts

[mint copper]

Tysm

[zinc coyote]

The cheat sheet has a lot of useful info on all the ghost as well

[mint copper]

Ah
Thanks again

[slow spade]

do i make a new post?

[vestal ferry]

yesms

[rotund whale]

i attached my player log is that safe

[vestal ferry]

yesms.

[frosty tangle]

I have a question about something that happened

Was in the new Grafton doing the recent Grafton weekly challenge

[vestal ferry]

okies

[frosty tangle]

We wanted to hear the ghost hunt (ghost room was the room to the left of the attic stairs) so we hid in a cupboard in the dolls room

We didn't put a crucifix down by us

Which was a mistake

We heard a couple of crucifix burns in the other room

So far so good. Then suddenly it hunts, and spawns on top of my friend inside the cupboard and she immediately dies

[vestal ferry]

yeah if you want it to hunt and listen a cruci is gonna be a problem forr that lol

[weak bane]

Ghosts sometimes roams. What ghost was it?

[vestal ferry]

what was the ghost? wraith? banshee? phantom?

[frosty tangle]

It was a deogen

[vestal ferry]

ah. well. i mean... rip

[weak bane]

oof

[frosty tangle]

That's also what I was thinking. I was like oh it's a phantom then (because of the evidence we had)

[rotund whale]

ok thanks

[worn pumice]

with the new weekly challnege is there a differen tpeice of evidence in different rooms?

[vestal ferry]

[worn pumice]

coz we have freezing in the foyer and ghost orbs in the tea room

[frosty tangle]

How does the deogen spawn on someone inside a cupboard???? I was so confused

[vestal ferry]

word of advice... note that evidence follows ghost.. except orbs are always fav room. soooooo yes freezing can be in another room

[vestal ferry]

roamy roam or right after a ghost event possibly

[quaint island]

Got a spot for 1 if anyone is bored

[worn pumice]

oh okay its just that the ghost orbs havnt chanegd rooms at all when usuallly they do from what ive seen

[prime elk]

Please keep 'looking for group' requests in our designated channels. Check them out, Investigator: #lfg-eu | #lfg-na | #lfg-as | #lfg-sa!

[vestal ferry]

only if ghost long roams and decides to swap rooms.

[weak bane]

Thats weird considering the deogen dont normally room swap as it always got a line of sight on players. But never say never

[worn pumice]

its just the ghost room where the orbs are is 13 degrees and th eother room is freezing temos and it hasnt wlaked through any oif the salt or blown out the fire light

[vestal ferry]

so it's just short roaming around in that room then ghosts do what it wants

[frosty tangle]

Speaking of orbs they must be different right? Because I swear a few weeks ago you'd see them immediately and now they appear 10 minutes in or only certain people are then on the camera, or there is one singular orb and have to chase it down

[vestal ferry]

but all evidence follows ghost. wherever it may be. except for orbs being locked to fav room

[vestal ferry]

they are the only evidence to be in map upon spawning in and before you even open front door

[weak bane]

I think you playing a different game LOL

[frosty tangle]

Maybe it's a bug. I haven't even minded it, it's kinda more fun with it not so obvious

But like I have to keep rechecking to see if orbs have appeared

This is across many games

[weak bane]

Aye. Never rule out evidence until you know for sure

[valid pond]

Ive just got monkeys paw 3 times in a row. is it a bug

[tough storm]

Thats..not a orb

[frosty tangle]

In grafton yesterday there was one singular orb and I had to chase it with the camera to see if it was actually an orb

[weak bane]

nah. just lucky

[tough storm]

Thats a mist form lol

[frosty tangle]

It was an orb

[vestal ferry]

they pop in and out around the room. could just be missing it.

[rotund whale]

@vestal ferry can this audio problem be because i pressed some keys by mistake? Are you familiar with anything did anyone have this before

[frosty tangle]

The camera said ghost orb

[tough storm]

Ghost orbs dont fly around the building.. they do however float around an area

[vestal ferry]

just will have to wait for tech support tbh

[frosty tangle]

It was 100% an orb. The camera said ghost orb when I got close enough and I took video and it said ghost orb and it looked like a ghost orb not an air ball

They look really different

[tough storm]

🤷 could be the ghost moving rooms

[vestal ferry]

not really how orbs work either

[tough storm]

Probably a mimic so doesnt matter

[vestal ferry]

...not how orbs work

they stay in fav room until ghost changes room.. then it's the same pop in pop out things again

[neon thunder]

im worried for how much time you spend to study orbs movement and behavior

[vestal ferry]

also video cam has a long range for orbs ... and grafton is filled with dust that looks like orbs if you aren't careful. coulda been following it and happened to get an orb in frame possibly

cause fun thing. orbs wont show on video cam after you recorded it once

like as in "show recording option"

[opal beacon]

Is the raijus heartbeat somewhat louder then other ghosts

[slim whale]

raiju heartbeat vs normal

[wise oyster]

That's the first time I've ever seen a good comparison, thank you. and @lime holly

[slim whale]

I cant hear the difference. But have that copied cuz apparently there is one xd

[wise oyster]

I can hear it in that video, though that's without my headphones one. The Raiju's almost has a blaring effect. I can see how a keen ear could pick it up.

[slim whale]

Yeah idk. I just identify raiju by speed

[wise oyster]

anyway, hopefully they fix that

[slim whale]

Hi van

[wise oyster]

same 99% of the time

[wise oyster]

lol we're already talking

[slim whale]

Shush

I didnt greet you

Now i did

[wise oyster]

Mornin'

[dry vessel]

best items for a poltipile?

[cosmic cosmos]

books and plates

[wise oyster]

anything, just don't literally stack everything on top of each other. Spread them out a bit

or keep the lights on

[dry vessel]

good to know (im pretty experienced but never made a poltipile)

[dry vessel]

do poltis get mad from lights or is it something else?

[wise oyster]

The problem some people run into is a non-Polter can choose to throw an item at the bottom of pile and make a bunch of stuff move, which newbies misinterpret as a polty bomb

[south violet]

i got doom slayed whitout knowing...

[wise oyster]

ghosts can't throw objects when they're in a lit room

[south violet]

i just walked into the mental house and got murdered

[dry vessel]

intresting

[cosmic cosmos]

congrats, most ppl struggle with that achievement lol

[dry vessel]

this is probably the reason i take only garfunkle (the teddy bear) and himothy (the plush bunny) they are in every map

[south violet]

i was trying too impress my freing by being cool and not scared and when i walked in door slammed i screamed like a little girl. i got the achivment and lost some dignity

[dry vessel]

i really like naming the animalistic/humaniod objects for the fun of it

[dry vessel]

yikers

[wise oyster]

nah Doom Slayed is a flex, just play it off

[south violet]

i screamed running into the church like a girl how can i downplay that

[wise oyster]

well, that's tougher

[jaunty ruin]

guys I've done at least 5 hunts with a ghost and it often sped up from LoS, but in one hunt it didn't sped up from LoS сould it be a The Mimic or a The Twins?

[wise oyster]

Twins have LoS speedup

[slim whale]

Do u have orbs?

[south violet]

if it mimics wheter or not evidence is zero it should have orbs

[wise oyster]

Those that don't are Rev, Hantu, Thaye, & Deo, and Mimic doing one of those

[south violet]

revenant is very silly

[jaunty ruin]

i didnt find it

[dry vessel]

was it different speeds every hunt?

like slightly fast and then slightly slower?

[jaunty ruin]

can mimic orb appear outside his room?

[dry vessel]

i dont think so

[wise oyster]

no

Mimic orbs behave identical to regular ones

[jaunty ruin]

yea as i tould he dont sped up by LoS

[south violet]

time too man up and play phasmo...

[jaunty ruin]

he being slow

[jaunty ruin]

as hantu i guess outside his room

[dry vessel]

it cant be deo because that thing slows down from LoS, i assume its probably either twins or rev (maybe? i dont see rev alot)

hantu is a good guess too

[wise oyster]

Twins have LoS

[dry vessel]

right

[jaunty ruin]

any twin?

[cosmic cosmos]

REV is too obvious lol

[dry vessel]

what evi do you have?

[peak mural]

Hi, I am having real trouble with my microphone settings, it works perfectly fine everywhere else but in game and in lobby. Can anyone help fix this issue?

[ripe badge]

both twins have LoS

[wise oyster]

Twins is one ghost

[zinc coyote]

[jaunty ruin]

i have no evi

[ripe badge]

you know what I mean

[dry vessel]

your mic might not be headphones/streamer mic and actually might be set for the pc

[dry vessel]

vro go get evidence

[jaunty ruin]

i play on difficult that have no evi

[dry vessel]

jeez

well idk

[jaunty ruin]

so thats mimic

[dry vessel]

you sure?

[jaunty ruin]

yea

[dry vessel]

alright

[jaunty ruin]

he copy hantu

[dry vessel]

ah

[jaunty ruin]

and used 18 abilities at game

[dry vessel]

sounds about right

can i ghost burn crucifixes if they arent in the house??

[wise oyster]

yes

[lime holly]

Yeah

[dry vessel]

cool

[wise oyster]

Edgefield has entered the chat

[dry vessel]

[spark slate]

i hope you win.

[zinc coyote]

Dont die, that kills you

[spark slate]

i giggled at that

[dry vessel]

[lime holly]

Nice!

[kindred tangle]

W

[dusty nest]

i love deogens too highk

[kindred tangle]

best ghost

[zinc coyote]

Revs>

[lime token]

Most boring ghost*

[hallow vortex]

deogens are great if you just need money

[kindred tangle]

stop it now, take it back

deogens do not deserve this slander

[dusty nest]

takw it back

[dry vessel]

deogens are probably the funniest ghost

[kindred tangle]

rev is just deogens brother who requires everyones attention, he tries to hard

[hallow vortex]

i used to love deos but ive had a deo almost every game for the past week im sick of them

[dusty nest]

lowk i get random ghosts

i rarely get deo

[kindred tangle]

i'm the same way with mimics right now, i had 14 of them the other night.. 4 being in a row.

[zinc coyote]

But deos are only fun to bully, too easy

[dusty nest]

mostly like a fuckass ghost

[lime holly]

Ill trade you mares :>

[dusty nest]

i hate mares

[kindred tangle]

you have to give them words of encouragement while they try to give you hug

[hallow vortex]

ive had a lot of mimics aswell

[dusty nest]

it just killed me last game and i just needed two things for a perfect investigation

i hate mares with all my heart

[dry vessel]

vro

[lime holly]

1/7 chance within 4m of a light switch

[lime holly]

Putting this on a t shirt

[wise oyster]

Congrats, that's how I got it, too. Someone randomly gifted me a month of Nitro once.

[dusty nest]

its ok girl

[zinc coyote]

But no one likes mares

[lime token]

I feel like every day you have a different common ghost that you get, like yesterday I couldn't stop getting twins lol

[dusty nest]

ur not a marr cause i dont hate u

[wise oyster]

worst shirt ever

[hallow vortex]

i found 2 mares thru the ability back to back last week it was crazy

[wise oyster]

put a 💩 on it

[lime holly]

Real

[hallow vortex]

like immediate ability

[vernal jacinth]

Dang

[lime token]

Yo can I permanently borrow this luck

[modern mauve]

Nuzzgard streaming Phas was not on my bingo card this year

[vernal jacinth]

My luck has been with Polties. Had three in a row.

[supple pelican]

ngl but deogen is the hardest ghost made ever

[lime token]

Omg is that the guy who did the Phasmorpg series back in the day?

[modern mauve]

Yup

He's been away a long time

[hallow vortex]

my luck isnt THAT good, i get either the easiest most dead giveaway ghost ever or the most nothing ghost

[lime token]

That right there is what got me into phas lol

~~ Insym did as well ~~

[autumn tide]

anyone wanna play?

[modern mauve]

-lfg

[prime elk]

Please keep 'looking for group' requests in our designated channels. Check them out, Investigator: #lfg-eu | #lfg-na | #lfg-as | #lfg-sa!

[modern mauve]

Nuzz was the first Phas yter I watched

[lime token]

I'm going to rewatch PhasmoRPG right now lol

[wise oyster]

Insym was not only the 1st Phas streamer I watched, he was the first streamer I actually ever sat down and watched play a video game at all

[dry vessel]

i can

[zinc coyote]

Same I think he got me into phas iirc

[wise oyster]

I had seen clips back in 2020-21 when it was new, but didn't think about it again until my buddy and I were looking for a co-op game and it was off the beaten path of shooters. Then when I wanted to actually figure out the game Insym was the first I came across

[zinc coyote]

Yeah I think he got the most people into this game, i got it in like 2021/ very early 2022 but didnt play much because I had no friends on pc

[glossy pebble]

Can any phasmo pros teach me how to do no evidence runs? Im fairly good at the game, but there's alot i want to learn about no evidence, if anyone wants to teach me, do drop me a DM! Im on ps5 also

[wise oyster]

Cheat Sheet has a 0ev guide and tons of tools/info. If you want a short video guide Madixx just put one out

[fallen void]

Hey guys, just wanna check, is footprint considered an evidence ?

[wise oyster]

yes, UV footprints are UV evidence

[modern mauve]

I liked Nuzzgard a lot, he's super chill

[fallen void]

aight thanks

[lime token]

Madixx has been popping off with his uploads, they are very high quality

[wise oyster]

He's back in the game for sure

[fallen void]

But salt footprint is not am i right ?

[wise oyster]

yeah just stepping in salt only means it's not a Wraith

[fallen void]

ah i see

[lime token]

He also made an updated cww grind video

[lime holly]

I saw that. Is that method faster than 14.47x though?

[dry vessel]

salt footprints can have uv footprints tho

[lime token]

No, it's more like a beginner strat compared to that

[lime holly]

Yeah thats what I figured

[lime token]

He did say you can tweak the settings to make it harder or easier

[wise oyster]

If you're capable of doing 14.47x, you don't need a video

[lime holly]

True lol

[wise oyster]

and I say that as someone not at all capable

[lime token]

It's a LOT easier with a duo

[wise oyster]

Yeah I need a duo better than me

[modern mauve]

Shouldn't do yourself dirty like that

[lime token]

As a solo, you must consistently get at least 1 ghost photo, emf photo, hunting video, salt video, hunting ghost and if you hit the interval correct, a firelight sound

[wise oyster]

Know thyself

[rustic field]

not reading allat 📜

[lime token]

Fair enough

[lime holly]

I usually end up only getting ghost and emf photo, hunting ghost video and sound. Occasionally bone and salt and firelight if it blows it out

as solo

[mellow galleon]

So tempted to play rn but VC is an annoying barrier

[wise oyster]

so play solo

[mellow galleon]

And die every 5 seconds

[lime token]

The salt video is what makes it hard

As solo

I really want to make an advanced guide but I'm shite at commentary..

[modern mauve]

People love an Irish accent 😉

[lime token]

Lol

[wise oyster]

Except you

[modern mauve]

[wise oyster]

You didn't know NukaDave was Irish, and you didn't seem too pleased to find out

[modern mauve]

Oh, it was a joke

[wise oyster]

Sure it was, Longshanks

[modern mauve]

Because of the whole British erasing Irish culture back in the day

Which sounds very tone deaf now saying it

Look, I'm tired af, I spent over 24 hours awake

[wise oyster]

I know you got a portrait of Oliver Cromwell over your bed

[modern mauve]

heh

[wise oyster]

lil' history humor forya

[modern mauve]

He was my hero, clearly

[wise oyster]

him and Elizabeth I

Nine Years War was just yesterday in the Bourbon home

[lime token]

Back in my day

[modern mauve]

Oh yeah, I had an interesting convo with the friend who got me into Phas, as we were eating at Dairy Queen. And she explained why she finds it harder to just hop into the game: she feels the game got a lot more complicated than it needs to be

[hushed seal]

this gen chat 2?

[modern mauve]

Not really, sometimes we go a little off topic lol

[wise oyster]

I could see that

[wise oyster]

I got off on a little tangent joking w/ bourbon

[hushed seal]

who cares? pop off

[modern mauve]

I found this an interesting way to look at the game, we like the extra stuff typically, but there are old heads who just want to hop in. A good argument for an "arcade mode"

[clever quiver]

How did I get Poltergeist when it closed the book on me twice?

[modern mauve]

What game difficulty are you playing on?

[wise oyster]

Yup, I was thinking the same, and my observation was mostly a result of Ascension, not even Chronicle

[clever quiver]

Nightmare

[lime token]

Well there's your answer

[modern mauve]

That's why, you won't get Writing as evidence, it's hidden

Therefore, the ghost can interact with the book and throw it

[mint pebble]

If you have one evidence ex freezing, if it throws the book and it doesn't show uv you can rule the ghost out

NM*

[next lynx]

do mimics create fake ghost orbs even in 0 evidence?

[mint pebble]

Yes

[modern mauve]

Really?!

[lime token]

Yup

[mint pebble]

Because you will have 2 evidence

[modern mauve]

Wow, please tell me more

(My sarcasm meter is off the charts)

[mint pebble]

Did you know t2 = og equipment 🤯

[steep pelican]

First time seing Bourbon being sarctstic

[steep pelican]

Smudge?
Teehee

[mint pebble]

Most of them

Some t1 are og

Like salt

[lime token]

I don't think the t2 smudge, t2 firelight, t2 tripod, t2 headgear, t2 salt were og

[steep pelican]

But salt used to have three "charges" right?

[wise oyster]

yup, that bottle had 3 before ascension

[mint pebble]

That idk 🤷‍♂️

[wise oyster]

also T1 headgear was the OG

[steep pelican]

SO IT'S NOT OG RAAAAA

[modern mauve]

OG of being SHIT

[wise oyster]

who put the quarter in Bourbon

[slim whale]

Hi bon

[modern mauve]

(I mostly joke, my friend used it all of the time)

[slim whale]

Hello nubbers

[modern mauve]

Howdy Mimi

[mint pebble]

Best t2 og is emf

[modern mauve]

When I've been awake 24 hours, and then a shit tonne of sleep in the last couple of days...

[wise oyster]

Yeah that's some hellacious jet lag I'm sure

[vital sonnet]

Wait hold up I have a silly Idea.
Could it be possible where you make the ghost change rooms A LOT and eventually go into the entryway and drop dots and stuff inside and guess the ghost without even opening the door?

[steep pelican]

Hello Mimers

[steep pelican]

Wait, the white emf is back?

[slim whale]

If you get the right evidence yes

[edgy saddle]

hihi, uh so i just bought phasmo, i just quickly would like to know if when i play is vc already enabled or no, do i have to turn it on or

[vital sonnet]

one time I randomly guessed poltergeist and got it right without even going near the front door. Lmao

[wise oyster]

Even at high room changing/roaming with 0 sanity, that wouldn't be viable on most maps. You'd have to at least go into the front room, and the ghost doesnt' spawn until you open the front door

[edgy saddle]

heellp

[mint pebble]

I consider them the same

[lime token]

I can imagine the ghost having an eternal nap and we only wake it up by opening the front door

[wise oyster]

That's a nice idea

Maybe these ghosts are actually relatively peaceful when no one is around

[lime token]

And the ghost is trying to kill us because we disturbed it's sleep

[wise oyster]

it's a moot point though, b/c they're not in the woods or on a mountaintop. They're in people's homes

[steep pelican]

But they worked kinda different🤓
Okay I'll stop now, you're right with the T2 stuff I thought that too

[edgy saddle]

what does “eu” “na” “as” and “sa” mean in the finding groups thing

[lime token]

Regions

[edgy saddle]

OHH

i’m in the wrong one shoot

[wise oyster]

Do the Training first, for your sake and the sake of anyone you might play with

[lime token]

EU is Europe
Na is North America
AS is Asia
SA is south America

[mint pebble]

Are you dead ass serious 😭

[edgy saddle]

yes i am not smart 😭

[edgy saddle]

okok i will

[hushed seal]

what does smudge mean in the game?

[odd vale]

Lighting your incense. It’s called a smudge stick

[random stratus]

yeah so when you "smudge the ghost" it just means to light the smudge (now called incense) within the presence of the ghost

or well... proximity of the ghost rather

how to use audio recorder guys?

its always not recorded

[jade bloom]

Hold right mouse key

Any vr players know how to increase turning speed for your vr controllers

Bonus points if you know how to make it smooth

[zinc coyote]

Smooth turning is a option in settings so is sensitivity

[jade bloom]

In game settings or steam vr

[worn glade]

Right click once to turn on device
Right click and hold too start recording
Do not let go until the recording is completed

If the recording fails you were either not close enough, or too late in the activity

[zinc coyote]

In game

[jade bloom]

Must've overlooked it then

[burnt vortex]

Do most players above prestige X know how to kite the ghost or don’t

[jade bloom]

I would hope so lmfao

I'm prestige 1 because I don't like prestiging in games and I can loop perfectly fine

[zinc coyote]

Yeah looping isnt really hard to learn

[burnt vortex]

It make sense to me because in nightmare mode you have to kite the ghost to identify

[jade bloom]

Most important skill tbqh

[zinc coyote]

Ive seen plenty below pX loop perfectly fine

[burnt vortex]

But surprisingly I found out there are many people not even knowing you can kite the ghost💦

[analog widget]

If a Prestige X doesn't know how to loop then they have almost certainly bought levels

[jade bloom]

I enjoy nightmare more than professional because you don't get the ghost for free

[lime holly]

Yeah or got carried in lfgs

[jade bloom]

You get 3 evidence ok done zzzzz

[worn glade]

Some people just never play on reduced evidences

[jade bloom]

You get 2 evidence and then you puzzle what ghost it is

[zinc coyote]

Most people play casually, they dont care to. A good portion probably just hides and tries to listen for any clues

[analog widget]

At some point I should learn all the advanced or pro techniques

[jade bloom]

I'd say looping is still casual

[burnt vortex]

When you start learningto kite

[solemn stream]

I’m p7 and I can’t loop, but that’s a skill issue tbh

[burnt vortex]

You start losing interest to the game)

[jade bloom]

?

[worn glade]

Kiting is harder than looping since you have to deal with the ghost speeding up over time

[burnt vortex]

It takes you less than like 100 hours to learn every ghost

[burnt vortex]

I’m not good with English but is there a difference

Going around a table, would you call it looping or kiting

[zinc coyote]

Same thing im pretty sure

[analog widget]

I just think it would be a bit weird not knowing how to loop, Its one of the most basic skills to have in the game and is also not that hard to learn

[worn glade]

I assume by kiting you mean to lead the ghost on, through a corridor or room, for example
Looping is usually running circles around something where the ghost doesn't maintain LOS

[zinc coyote]

Most people call it looping, kiting is another word

[burnt vortex]

Not I don’t think you can kite a ghost like that

[solemn stream]

I know how, i just mess up most times and die XD

[jade bloom]

Mood

I should probably get better at looping but having that as the solution every match isn't that fun

[zinc coyote]

I do enjoy looping but only when I'm host. If im not host the ghost touches me from like 5 feet away

[burnt vortex]

Loop on plain ground, would you call it ez, soso, hard, or pro level technique

[worn glade]

"Wouldn't it be funny if we had three demons in row"
Demon spawning right on top of me: "totally"

[burnt vortex]

Yes I feel you, every time I play on Asia server

[zinc coyote]

Real skill is looping the ghost around nothing

[burnt vortex]

I’m actually learning how to loop with high lag

[jade bloom]

oh Im really good at doing that

[zinc coyote]

Sometimes I need to play on EU and im in NA

[jade bloom]

as long as it's a deo

[zinc coyote]

Do it with a phantom

[burnt vortex]

Lmao

[jade bloom]

sure

survival is not included

[zinc coyote]

Its honestly easy if the ghost is on 150 speed

[jade bloom]

they overshoot a lot then yes

[burnt vortex]

Not when it is a low speed ghost

[zinc coyote]

Deos are the hardest to loop

[burnt vortex]

I did that once and it tracked me down

[zinc coyote]

[burnt vortex]

What is a does

[jade bloom]

everyone's favourite ghost

when you realize it's a deo everyone cheers

[wheat elbow]

deogen

[burnt vortex]

Give me some hints

[analog widget]

Obake is mine

[burnt vortex]

Is it the one with orbs even with 0 evidence

[limber furnace]

Anyone got any tips for apoc 3 sunny?

[lime token]

I love morois

[jade bloom]

obake deo and banshee are my top 3

[lime token]

Dont die!

Does anyone use mods

[lime token]

[prime elk]

Modifications and cheats can have an adverse effect on the game, yourself, and other players. They are capable of corrupting your save file progress, and cause all sorts of issues which we are not required to assist you with in such a case.

Any actions involving modifying the game in any way violates Phasmophobia's EULA, and if detected or reported, will lead to a Multiplayer ban.

[analog widget]

Bring Incense

[jade bloom]

Prohibited unfortunately

would love for more player mods but alas

[burnt vortex]

Interestingly it’s like accustom in Asia server

As long as you don’t ruin other peoples game experience people wouldn’t be mad with it

Are things different in NA and EU?

[glacial stag]

Its not different, using mods at all is prohibited.

And will get you banned.

[burnt vortex]

Technically it will

[orchid finch]

Has anyone else had issues with camp woodwind and the cursed objects not beinf there?

[gritty dove]

It's prohibited, it is bannable and we're going to leave it at that

[brazen coral]

Moroi

[strange phoenix]

revenant

[brazen coral]

It is the only ghost that can gain on you at 100% speed while running around camp fire or an active looping spot

makes it fun seeing how fast it can get

[mint pebble]

Will get you banned but no anti cheat system?😭

[random stratus]

honestly the moroi is one of those rare but scary ghosts

i don't see it often enough

[mint pebble]

Thaye ☠️

[brazen coral]

I had one on camp yesterday and I told my team that I was gonna loop it around the campfire and if it gained on me it was a Moroi

[random stratus]

oh yeah Thaye as well

i do not fuck with thayes or revenants

[brazen coral]

Thaye is so easy to tell very quickly

[random stratus]

yeah but its nice to be alive to tell what ghost it is yk?

[brazen coral]

Fast but no LOS

[random stratus]

and thayes genuinely are terrifying towards the start

[grizzled jetty]

anyone down to play?

i am new

You know what

[velvet vector]

Hello, next month at Sep 18 5th Anniversary Update coming right?

[random stratus]

revenants have actual aura

[jagged dune]

guys the sound recorder and partabolic, can they work together?

[mint pebble]

Nah i don't think so

[brazen coral]

Honestly dying to a thaye is more uncommon than dying to a Raiju for me

[stark vale]

my most deads are from a raiju

[random stratus]

raijus are so much fun, i love raijus

[brazen coral]

If it’s faster than normal but no LOS I usually pick Thaye

[brazen coral]

Mine are from a Demon

[worn glade]

Thaye responds to noise, no?
I've been hunted early before while I was quiet the whole time so I thought it couldn't have been that one
But it turns out when you play single player even when you're quiet it still triggers the hunt on noise sometimes

[tough storm]

I know high prestige folks who just cant be arsed to learn looping but know the game very well

[brazen coral]

I like looping a lot

[tough storm]

I like baiting deogon's 🙂

[brazen coral]

my 1 feat I’ve done is looping a 150% blood moon moroi on the small table in tanglewood living room

took like over 50+ attempts but 1 successful attempt is all I care about

[jagged dune]

tf, no ghost events, alwase in the light, and somehow i lost 30% sanity

[tough storm]

we ignore the attemps aslong as you got the one W

[brazen coral]

Yurei?

[tough storm]

Mare?

[rotund whale]

Can dead people see dots

[jagged dune]

was a moroi

[tough storm]

Yes

[brazen coral]

[jagged dune]

but idk how that is possible, as i did not have sound recorder on

[tough storm]

pasive sanity loss matey

Its much less with lights on... But you still lose sanity

[lime token]

They can curse you through paramic and spirit box

[worn glade]

Sounds like a Jinn or Moroi

[jagged dune]

thats the thing, i havent used any of those

[tough storm]

Damn paramic

[jagged dune]

it is moroi, i am just wondering how i got cursed

[worn glade]

All forms of audio through electronics count

[tough storm]

Mist form

[jagged dune]

so even the voice recorder

[tough storm]

Yes

[jagged dune]

as it was only extinghuising the flames i couldnt hear the curse

[tough storm]

Flame extinguish is a ghost activity

[jagged dune]

yes

but that shouldnt drain 30% at once

[tough storm]

What dificulty you on?

[jagged dune]

prof

[tough storm]

Your sanity probably dropped 30 during a period of time. not just in one instant

since..yk sanity also drops passively ;p

[brazen coral]

So Parabolic,Sound Recorder, Spirit Box if it was from Moroi Ability

[jagged dune]

yup

and i got hunted but i ran, after hunt i lost 30%, from last time i checked, 66 tyo roughly 30, it was too big in such a short time i knew it was moroi

[worn glade]

Moroi can only curse through electronics AFAIK, hearing the ghost during events doesn't curse you

[brazen coral]

[tough storm]

You got hunted. And you lost 30%

Sounds normal....

[jagged dune]

yes, but is it also normal to lose 30% sanity when you are such far awa that even electronics arent affected

[tough storm]

Being cursed by the Moroi, caused by a response on the parabolic microphone or Spirit Box, causes the player to double their passive sanity drain, and lights will not negate this sanity drain nor will Firelights lower it.

[bright sparrow]

how much mb is phasmophobia?

[jagged dune]

33gb

[bright sparrow]

ic

is it free?

[worn glade]

How much is that in lbs?

[tough storm]

no

[jagged dune]

no

[bright sparrow]

😭

[tough storm]

60?

[worn glade]

I .. what?
You're on a game forum to ask if the game is free??

[jagged dune]

and pirating doesnt work as it is online only

[tough storm]

The internet is a wacky place matey

[worn glade]

Fun idea for april 1st, render every room as a ghost room with a randomised ghost in them

Absolute carnage

[zinc coyote]

Make every ghost a rev with phantom blinks

[tough storm]

menace

[jagged dune]

hahaha

[zinc coyote]

[analog widget]

Make every map 6x darker than Grafton

[zinc coyote]

Add Chick fil a to phas

[tough storm]

Add Macca's

[analog widget]

Add Tim Horton's

[visual cloak]

at 0 sanity is moroi faster than thaye?

[zinc coyote]

Chick fil a better

[zinc coyote]

Without los, no, with los yes

Thaye max speed is 2.75, 0 sanity moroi is 2.25 or 3.71 with los

[tough storm]

Rev is faster 🙂

[prisma laurel]

[vital sonnet]

Guys I found a bug and Idk how.
I can't pick up anything.

[tough storm]

You dead?

[worn glade]

Some time ago I was playing with a friend and we had the weirdest experience during the hunts, like the ghost just walking past me
Wasn't until later i learned that the ghost completely blindsights everyone except the lobby owner

[zinc coyote]

Banshee?

[worn glade]

Ya

[zinc coyote]

Yep they do that

They choose a target and love them until they die

[obtuse badge]

Popeyes sweeps chikfila frfr

[worn glade]

Btw, the cheat sheet for Jinn reads a little weird
If you follow it literally, then the Jinn would only bite your sanity when you get EMF5 at the breaker
But my experience is that the Jinn can always bite your sanity, you don't need to have an EMF signal on the breaker

[ocean talon]

hey, is there any channel for submitting bugs around here?

[vital sonnet]

No.
Turns out me and my teammate picked up same UV

[tough storm]

Lol

[zinc coyote]

#bug-reports

[worn glade]

Yea, just search on the left column for a bug report channel

[obtuse badge]

Its true chicken is better and you get free entertainment with your meal after 6pm (street fight)

[ocean talon]

Thanks! 🙂

[prisma laurel]

Guys I found a bug! I saw the twins spawn on top of the crucifix!

[zinc coyote]

Chick fil a cheese sauce remains the best thing on earth

[kindred tangle]

make sure it's not a known bug before submitting it #known-issues

[modern mauve]

It says "With the breaker on, can drop a nearby player's sanity by 25%, with EMF2 or EMF5 at the breaker"

[zinc coyote]

Its not a bug its a ghost 🤓
they are not insects

[ocean talon]

yeah, im checking em out right now

[obtuse badge]

Can happen if twins main body is outside the radius and the decoy is in the radius (only checks main body)

[prisma laurel]

So the ghost is bugging? Gotcha
