[tame raft]

How many line of sight ghost are there

[last drift]

All of them 🙂

One has a weaker range one has infinite the rest can see you just fine.

[tame raft]

Oh really I am trying to get better at 1 evidence

[gaunt brook]

What’s the one with the weaker range?

[last drift]

Wait I'm sorry

Are you asking which ones speed up with sight?

[last drift]

I think yokai?

Blind deaf

Can't see can't hear unless closer.

[gaunt brook]

The wiki says line-of-sight hunting is unaffected but that it can only track electronics and hear people up to a range of 2.5 m

[last drift]

Ok that's it then

[gaunt brook]

GRANTED, I am painfully new to this game and all I know comes from streamers

[last drift]

I'm only.like 80% sure. So then all of them but 1 has infinite

lolol

[valid star]

New is a completely different beast to experience it yourself

[tame raft]

Any tips for looping a ghost

[gaunt brook]

The deogen will haunt my dreams

[last drift]

But I think they were trying to ask which ones have line of sight increases in speed.

Cause I think there is a select list that don't speed.. but I'm not that sure

[valid star]

You are gonna trash and cry and moan all the time... Until you get a second level thermometer

[gaunt brook]

I’ve seen someone advocate for clockwise looping and managing distance (stop and wait for the ghost so it won’t double back)

[wise oyster]

I'd settle just for moving the truck closer

[last drift]

Don't, if you can avoid it.

[prisma laurel]

So, place the truck right infront of the door?

[valid star]

Like inside the ghost room

[last drift]

But if you must: find a counter or something like a shelf or car that breaks line of sight and crouch.

[wise oyster]

just back it up straight into the entrance

[prisma laurel]

Similar to Edgefield

[gaunt brook]

I mean why not right the owners aren’t coming back

[tame raft]

It will help me identify the ghost easier

[last drift]

But if you must: find a counter or something like a shelf or car that breaks line of sight and crouch.
Use sprint bursts, and save the smudge for after or just before to break line of sight and duck down a different hall or corridor.

[wise oyster]

I want T1 crucis burning in the van

[modern mauve]

I know you would LOL

[gaunt brook]

Help em get that insurance money

[prisma laurel]

Yeah, that won't happen unless demon decides to do some extra range 🤔

[tame raft]

Is it best to crouch or stand-up?

[sage flower]

Holy hell, deogen first try, who doubted me

[last drift]

Crouching lowers your detection b bubbles and can break line of sight around counters and tables and stuff

[prime elk]

vandelayind

1. Stay crouched to break LoS, 2. Only use sprint a little at a time (don't run out), 3. Keep your eyes on the ghost, 4. Be aware of the trashcan or other obstacles. 5. Don't feel like you need to loop the entire hunt; always be ready to smudge and bail.

[sage flower]

Why is deo faster than you on apoc 3

[wise oyster]

it's not

[sage flower]

It was

[wise oyster]

even on blood moon, Deo is slightly slower than you

[sage flower]

How did it catch me if its supposed to be slower

[wise oyster]

you let it catch you?

[sage flower]

Do you move slower if you walk backwards

[wise oyster]

no

[sage flower]

Then how the hell was the deo faster than me

[plain violet]

u just slow ig

[wise oyster]

Deo goes 0.6m/s, player walks 0.8m/s on Apoc3.

[sage flower]

Mannn

[wise oyster]

you bumped into a wall or something idk

[sage flower]

Nop

[wise oyster]

[modern mauve]

Or got caught on furniture, it's not faster than you unless you slow down or stop

[sage flower]

Well i sold then

[agile epoch]

Could've delayed output of visual

[agile epoch]

Sometimes game might lag and show wrong ghost position for a sec and maybe they die that's why

[modern mauve]

Maybe if you're in mp as a non-host

[wise oyster]

not really in solo

[agile epoch]

Assume lag and move on 😭😭

There's no solution for it

[regal zealot]

i can see the ghost in translucent, can i rule out phantom?

[wise oyster]

in a photo? yes

[worn glade]

oh wow.. I had freezing and UV (in the challenge)
no orbs, and the ghost didn't speed up at all in line of sights
but it wasn't a demon, it was a Jinn that forgot it could run ...

[regal zealot]

is shattered bulb evidence i can take with pic

[worn glade]

you can record the act of lights shattering

but not take a picture

[agile epoch]

Yes

[sacred furnace]

Is it a myth that the deogen doesn't appear under lvl 30?

[covert viper]

Not a myth it's real 👀

[sacred furnace]

Those eyes make it sound like a myth

[agile epoch]

It's real to protect players from getting overwhelmed

If it's a myth then it's confirmed now @sacred furnace

[sacred furnace]

... Is it in the wiki or something

[covert viper]

No it's real trust me 👀

[agile epoch]

Yes it is 😄

[sacred furnace]

I feel like this is one of those things that's supposed to convince gullible people

Cuz rn I feel like

some irony, BUT I ACTUALLY WANT TO KNOW

[covert viper]

It's to protect noobies

[prisma laurel]

It's in the phasmophobia wiki in trivia

[covert viper]

Wiki source 🤢

[prisma laurel]

Atleast it isn't wikipedia

[sacred furnace]

Ok it's actually true😭

[covert viper]

Did you think we're all trolling here 😭

[sacred furnace]

YES

[covert viper]

[sacred furnace]

When I googled it online there were way too many "unsure" about this

And hoenstly that doesn't sound like a phasmo thing to be

[modern mauve]

It's true, however, if the host of your group is over P0-30, you can get a Deo. A Mimic can also mimic a Deo.

[sacred furnace]

Yeah... how is a deogen supposed to be confusing but not a mimic lol

[modern mauve]

They've done it this way to help new players - most new player's first response to a hunting ghost is to hide, a Deogen subverts that

[modern mauve]

I don't entirely disagree, I believe the Mimic should be level-locked too

[sacred furnace]

When people used the argument against me that they just never had a deogen below 30... I'd always say that the chances for that to happen aren't that low anyways... As there are 24 ghosts but damn I was just wrong

[prisma laurel]

I'm surprised how mimic isn't but deogen is

[sacred furnace]

Yeah, especially because of the weakness

[covert viper]

It's not confusing at all it's guaranteed death for newbies lul

Altho I rly dun understand it like u hide for 30 levels and then you can get deo but that won't stop you from hiding though will it lmao

[sacred furnace]

Yeah, idk abt the lvl lock... First time deo you're gonna die anyways, and then learn from it

[covert viper]

Yeah it's just better it doesn't happen on the 3rd match but much later

[leaden ivy]

Mimic needs to be level locked too

[dim drift]

lol

[compact geyser]

Hello all, is anyone happy to help with Apoc 3?

I’ve been struggling massively and get no enjoyment from it and would really appreciate help on PS5

[prisma laurel]

Just be pro

[plain violet]

useful topo 😭

[lime token]

Ur no pro noob

[warped kestrel]

anyone else getting the ghost spawning outside its room on Nell's Diner? We have 2 degrees in the freezer with salt on professional and its spawning from the bathroom by the break room.

[modern mauve]

The ghost can roam, and therefore hunt / event outside of its favourite room

[compact geyser]

Show me how itms done then, oh and to make it more challenging SharePlay. You’ll play on my account… I promise no trick

[modern mauve]

Also, the freezer is always cold

(unless the breaker is off I think)

[warped kestrel]

its not the first time we have had trouble in that hallway where it gives evidence on both sides of the wall

[modern mauve]

The ghost can interact through walls

Nell's is VERY compact

[warped kestrel]

they do have a lot to work out with Nell's

[limpid fable]

Guys the challenge week is so easy

Steam performs weekly maintenance every Tuesday, thus possibly being the reason for troubles purchasing the game or maintaining connection. Please be patient while Valve completes their weekly routine.

[south violet]

U clicked on the globe?

[patent snow]

Just spit-balling here because there's no suggestion channel.

I was watching the video the guys did where they rate suggestions. Two of the suggestions work really well together and would answer the questions each one created.

Someone said a succubus type ghost that gets attached and jealous and another one said an anti-banshee that favors one person and only attacks the others.

This would probably be boring in a solo match if the ghost doesn't like to hurt one person. But you could work in some sort of mechanic where it could still hunt under some sort of circumstance. Maybe <10 sanity or something

[rapid blaze]

Thank you so much for responding. ill just give it time :)) have a lovely day

[south violet]

With the anti banshee u could also get confused with a shade and if there’s only 2 ppl playing it could be a banshee or an anti banshee

[patent snow]

I like that, it would build in a little bit of difficulty like not knowing if orbs are legit or not until you narrow it down

[south violet]

No evidence would be chaos

[slate sinew]

uhhh we just got hunted at 100% sanity by a wraith the millisecond we went into the house?

[south violet]

Ok?

Wraiths don’t care abt sanity

[patent snow]

Wraiths are 50%

[south violet]

O

[brazen coral]

Impossible without cursed objects or custom sanity set to 50% or Lower

[patent snow]

👆

Demon mimic, then wraith mimic maybe?

[brazen coral]

Only ghosts that can hunt at 100% are the Demon/Onryo/Mimic without any cursed objects

[patent snow]

I'm guessing if it was TRULY at the first entrance of the house and insta hunt, it was mimic.

Otherwise yeah, the first guy in the house broke the music box or something right as it teleported lol

[south violet]

Btw if it goes to 99 percent is it not just onryo demon and mimic?

[patent snow]

Onryo you'd still need the time to set up candles and let it burn 3 which takes time. Unless it was a chapel ghost in Sunny Meadows and it blew them out real fast

Which I've had happen and I hated my life

[south violet]

Oh dang

I’m gonna hate apoc 3 sunny meadows

[patent snow]

If you finish apoc3 you get all trophies in one swoop

[brazen coral]

Demon/Mimic/Onryo are able to hunt at any sanity using an ability, next ghost in line is the Yokai/Thaye which can hunt at 80% and 75% both relying on ability as well

speaking near yokai scan toggle the 80% ability other than that I believe it’s 50%

[patent snow]

60 iirc (yokai and onryo base hunt threshold), 80 for ability

[south violet]

Ohhh k ty

[brazen coral]

young Thayes hunt at 75% and will progressively get lower the more it’s aged down to 15%

[south violet]

Thayes get slower as it ages right?

[brazen coral]

Ye

[patent snow]

Yes

[south violet]

Alr

[patent snow]

It ages as you spend time near it though, keep that in mind. It doesn't passively age the entire investigation

[south violet]

My first apoc 3 sunny meadows was blood moon 😭😭😭

[brazen coral]

172% ghost speed

[patent snow]

I would just leave lol I need to hear the normal speeds

[brazen coral]

im like insanely good at 172% speed, very good at 150% and terrible at 100%

[south violet]

Absolutely insane I don’t even know tgr normal footsteps

[patent snow]

I have the 100% speeds memorized like a metronome in my head

[brazen coral]

I got the 172% memorized

I can even get the ghost from a different floor lol

[patent snow]

It's basically just 120bpm for a normal ghost (a touch under I think. I used to get 118 every time I would tap it out)

[brazen coral]

I use counting system

it’s how I can tell twins from other ghosts

[south violet]

I’m gonna prestige soon yay

[patent snow]

I love getting a twins hunt before we get any other evidence and calling it out in VC and having people be like "wtf"

[brazen coral]

I’ve had more reactions with Raijus more than any ghost

Is there a way to get unstuck from the cop car at the Diner?.... totally asking for a friend rn 😐

[last drift]

Crouch

[sharp grove]

thank you ....... i mean.... my friend says thanks

[patent snow]

Raiju is also fun. I like setting up a raiju trap to hear the speeds. Or a moroi, take pills mid hunt and hear it slow down

[wraith heart]

i need help

[last drift]

Gonna need more context

[brazen coral]

I don’t need a hunt or evidence to figure a raiju out just a ghost event

[echo musk]

i honked the horn but i didn't get close enough to get stuck i guess.

[last drift]

Ok.

[patent snow]

Message @violet nova

[south violet]

Just leave

[last drift]

Did you report him?

[last drift]

They're banned.

[south violet]

No but I mean next time if there’s a hacker just leave

[patent snow]

I suggest using the LFG channels

[echo musk]

you get banned for your own actions detected not because you played with someone (when unaware of them doing so) but if aware then that falls onto your own actions (aka willingly playing) can DM @violet nova and see what they inform of you for future steps. 😄

[patent snow]

Yeah but that's usually where you'll find people to hang

[last drift]

If someone got banned because a cheater was in the lobby, I would think they allowed and encouraged it and got banned along side them

It sounds like you're looking for a group to watch you play

[echo musk]

so for everyone new, dubstep there asks about three times a day for someone to join VC and tell them what to do in the game. lfg's generally don't help with that as they play the game as is with people.

[last drift]

Lfg means looking for group.

So if you're looking for a group to help ya , you might want to go to the l f g chats , because l f g means looking for group

[patent snow]

Yes but those are the channels people still go to when they are looking for people to be with in a VC

[echo musk]

from sources:
You cannot be banned from Phasmophobia simply for playing with a teammate who is cheating, provided you were unaware of their actions and did not knowingly participate in or benefit from their cheating. it continues but not gonna spam this chat ❤️

[patent snow]

Just say in your post "Looking for someone to help walk me through apoc in a voice chat"

[last drift]

Exactly. They'd have to be unaware. Lol

Oh, so you are literally looking for a group to help you get Apocalypse.Three done you want them to watch you play and guide you.

It's almost as if you reworded exactly what I said , just so you could disagree with me.

[echo musk]

i just shortened all the info in the origional post but probably wasn't clear anyways.

[patent snow]

So, say that in your post. This is general chat. Those are the channels where people find people. This is just for generally talking about the game so it might be harder to find someone

[last drift]

You should post your request in LFG so it doesn't get buried

[south violet]

😭

[wise oyster]

This saga has been going on for about a month now, maybe more

[odd vale]

@robust fractal you can post here or in LFG. We just don’t want people doing lobby posts in here. As long as you don’t spam your resist to look for someone to help you.

Just don’t do it so many times in a short amount of time, there you go

[lime holly]

Yup. cant ghost hunt on an empty stomach

[odd vale]

Okay

[echo musk]

GL in your games

[patent snow]

Okay, that's fine and it's okay to say something here too. We're all just telling you that LFG channels usually are better visibility when you're looking to hang with someone in a VC because the people who are checking those channels ALSO don't mind being in a VC

People just gave you advice for LFG as people there are looking to play. They may be more available to help you with apoc 3. People here are usually just chatting and not able to be in VC and help.

[echo musk]

[patent snow]

Nobody said you couldn't ask here, man. We were trying to be helpful by telling you that the LFG channels are where people find other people to hang out in voice channels with so you'd probably have better luck there than in this chat

[fickle meteor]

but u here

[zinc coyote]

You know apoc is supposed to be hard, right?

[odd vale]

Just need to study the game more and practice before trying again

[zinc coyote]

Yeah, thats normal

Everyone dies from time to time

[south violet]

Game isnt ment to be easy

[zinc coyote]

[patent snow]

Seriously. I've got 1600 hours in this game and I still haven't done apocalypse. It's just a pain in the ass challenge that I don't feel like grinding

[last drift]

I've been trying for 2 years for gold

I still don't have gold.

[vestal ferry]

Apoc3 is hard. Its not easy. My suggestion is to learn 0san 0ev 150% ghost speed first. Become comfortable with that then work way to player speed being 50%
Apoc3 will become much easier once knowing all the ghost behaviors and nuances.

[last drift]

It's hard. I have over 600 hours

[echo musk]

For fun facts and about learning Ghost Abilities/Traits/Speeds and Beaviors, Object locations and other usefull info use the ZN Unofficial Cheat Sheet!

[distant shale]

Id say go practice no evidence or something in a normal setting rather than get bummed about it

[zinc coyote]

Fair, I got extremely lucky for my apoc 3. Even so, I'll still occasionally get something wrong or die with nearly 1,200 hours

[last drift]

and to be honest a lot of people get it by scumrolling for deo

Not a deo, restart.

[distant shale]

A lot of the apoc posts I see mention dumb luck

[patent snow]

I've had it before where I load in on a normal zero evidence and get a deo and I'm like MOTHERFUCKER

[zinc coyote]

[last drift]

My silver apoc was dumb luck.

[echo musk]

I had a mare. my favorite try was the rev.

[last drift]

I guessed yurei and it was correct.

[zinc coyote]

I got a deo for mine, not by rerolling, just unsuccessful runs, dying, LUCKILY came across a deo with good objectives and managed to do it

[vestal ferry]

It took me a while to get apoc completed with all ghost types. but i did it. And im happy to do apoc. But i also have over 4k hours in the game.

[sick vale]

[last drift]

Get a ghost photo, cleanse the area near ghost. Survive a hunt.

Best three to get.

[patent snow]

My friend got her gold apoc with a goryo because it never changed rooms on like her second try

[plain violet]

maybe u need to learn more no ev

dont go straight to apoc

[zinc coyote]

Just don't die, duh

[last drift]

Oh thanks

[plain violet]

yes but can u do no ev 90% of the time and know every single test or most tests

[vestal ferry]

Hammond. Dont scream.

[distant shale]

then work on NE basics

[last drift]

That would be the limiting factor in 0 evidence.

[plain violet]

than YOU need more practise

gold apoc is the hardest thing to do in the game for a reason (apart from doom slayed that trophy can vanish and id be happy)

[last drift]

I run pro games with 0 evidence as practice

I have a 1/3 consistency

[plain violet]

what?

[patent snow]

Get to the point where nightmare is your warmups and get used to that. Then move up until Insanity is your warmup rounds and you rarely die while getting the ghost right. Then move your way up into custom difficulties. It takes time. The people who get apoc trophies do it because they KNOW the ghosts from their special traits.

[odd vale]

What

[last drift]

It sounds like you don't want any advice or any help.But you want advice and help in vc

[plain violet]

how long will that last?

[tame raft]

Is jinn test just EMF on the breaker

[plain violet]

all we saying is that to do gold apoc (the thing many people here cant even do and wont do for a reason) is because u need to learn more cause this isnt a easy game to learn and also u need to have patience TAKE it very slow and soon enough with enough skill and luck u done gold apoc.

[last drift]

OutSide of learning how the ghosts behave, Would you said you don't wanna do because you wanna play the game your way, I don't know how anyone can help you other than playing the game for you

[odd vale]

It usually is not terribly long.

[echo musk]

I said this when it was overbearing the first time. fact, today the first time i've responded to them since then cause i'd be rude about it lol.

[last drift]

I would recommend going into a custom setting copying professional and then reducing the amount of evidence to 0

[tame raft]

?

[plain violet]

ummm i think so im not 100% sure tho
i hate jinns with my whole heart

[last drift]

Start learning how to play the game with no evidence , but a less difficult setting

[echo musk]

all this we've said to them before as Vande said for the last month. so many people respond but it's not what they want so it's a continued convo for unessesary length of time.

see poor lil noob hammond aint even got it (kiddin hammond)

I can't loop I can't hit skill checks

Itll give emf on breaker without turning it on or off, and only when it uses ability to drain sanity on someone.

If you get emf at the breaker and it wasn't turned on or off then yeah Jinn ability

[echo musk]

"play the game more and learn" is the short version of that. just saying ❤️

[patent snow]

Okay but admittedly, you say you keep getting the ghost wrong. That's okay, it's all part of the learning process. But the reasoning here is that if you keep getting the ghost wrong, which is expected because this challenge is hard, is that you need to just keep practicing until you know what the ghosts are like with the settings.

It's okay to ask for help, it's good to ask for help. But when people try to offer you advice, if you keep saying no to that advice then that's on you. The advice currently is, that you should check the looking for groups channels and tell the people there what you're trying to do and somebody might help you

[plain violet]

yh but he aint seem to get it yet so i thought i have to stretch it

keep learning no ev

[last drift]

Prestige and level does not indicate skill

[plain violet]

there is always something to learn abt no ev

[last drift]

I've seen plenty of prestige twenty who all they did was sit in a van.

[zinc coyote]

I've seen p20s that suck

[last drift]

I've had fights with prestige eighteen over whether or not orbs follow the ghost

[wooden robin]

I'm prestige 40302184 and I'm really really good at the game

[patent snow]

Level honestly doesn't really mean anything. It's not hard to level in this game. Me who is prestige 13 level 90

[plain violet]

all p and lvl mean is how many hours u got in the game

[last drift]

"Streamer says"

Ok but the developer says...

[vestal ferry]

Im prestige 7 just out of pure lazinesss to do xp games

[tame raft]

Hey @last drift

[last drift]

Hi

[tame raft]

What’s up

[echo musk]

he wont. because it's not the answer he wants to read. the answer he wants to read is "I'll join ya pic a room" and actually go do it. few have offered but said it isn't going to work because of all the variables and split sec things you would have to do. I know..I tried with @lime holly to do a vc version multiple times. but that's why it's solo, and 'hardest' game made setting.

[vestal ferry]

I enjoy bullying ghosts on friendly ghost a lot. Thats what i tend to do.
But i do apoc3 once a week for funsies.

[distant shale]

I probably wont prestige to keep my equipment, unless one of the badges looks cool enough, but honestly its just epeen points

[plain violet]

at this point i cant tell if hes a troll or not 💀

[patent snow]

I suggest focusing on enjoying the game and you'll get there eventually

[last drift]

There's another investigator.. He suffers from a physical impairment where he can't hear. Half of his problem is he can't finish apoc, he needs to hear whether the ghost is fast or slow.

[patent snow]

Well then all of the advice we've given you here should be helpful

[plain violet]

that is another problem u need to TAKE YOUR TIME

[odd vale]

Rob?

[last drift]

Yes.

[odd vale]

He got it.

[covert viper]

Diner

[echo musk]

idk. I got duct tape on em so i don't see them and subsequently....have become part of my Squishy room decor.

[odd vale]

Just the other day. Through hard work and learning.

[last drift]

DID HE?!?! THATS AWRSOME

[covert viper]

Rnrnrnrn

[vestal ferry]

Gonna keep it a buck fifty here.
Want easy apoc? Reroll for deo. Its survivable in every part of the map so objectives dont matter at that point.
If your goal is to win without learning, 0ev 0ev 150% speeds, then its your best option

[last drift]

@hot dome Congrats On Apoc!!!!

[wooden robin]

A buck fifty? Yes please

[last drift]

I'm so proud of you Rob!

[south violet]

mare on apoc 3 😭

[vestal ferry]

Jinn

[plain violet]

whats the scariest ghost on apoc 3?

[last drift]

Ok. Guess we don't need the BPM on the cheat sheet anymore.

[south violet]

rev for me ngl. i find any rev scary.

[echo musk]

Rev was my favorite attempt. unfortunately i'm not affraid of any of them.

[vestal ferry]

Scariest? Well glad its not in game anymore but the broken hantu of yeh olden days. 15m/s speed

[last drift]

I wasn't talking about YOU

[south violet]

also taking a pic of that would be terrifying

[last drift]

I was talking about ANITHER INVESTIGATOR

[plain violet]

WTF YH FUCK THAT NO THANKS I DONT WANT THAT AT MACH 10000 IN A ASYLUM

[last drift]

Literally THE FIRST WORDS

[vestal ferry]

Not talking about you though.

[plain violet]

good answer revs i will always pass

[last drift]

Wl THERES THIS OTHER INVESTIGATOR

I was TALKING TO YOU

[vestal ferry]

Im starting to see a pattern here

[plain violet]

lads ibr i think he a troll

[prisma laurel]

Big question of why doing apoc 3 in the first place if u can't do it?

[plain violet]

THATS WHAT IM SAYING

[last drift]

Because he wants it done now

That's a very valid reason

I also want it done now

I wanted it done three weeks ago

[quiet briar]

heh i got stuck in the floor on nels diner

[vestal ferry]

Best hope broken hantu doesnt make a return visit

[last drift]

Obroke

[prisma laurel]

Obviously that won't happen

[last drift]

Obviously 😭

[echo musk]

unfortunately i wasn't playing back then. I mean i like Sunny better then what i seen in video's of the asylum. so, there's that. I wonder if there's video's of your Rev mention. notes to look later

[odd vale]

@last drift <#phasmo-chat message>

[vestal ferry]

Oh no hantu was broken when Sunny meadows came out. Lol i got my gold with it. Lol

[plain violet]

best objs

[echo musk]

guess it got fixed then before i played. grats that's an achievement tho for sure

[vestal ferry]

You need a photo already.
Cleansing means doing it during hunt.
Paramic is easy.

[plain violet]

photo u need either way for apoc. u will cleans it cause it will hunt your ass down. para mic noise just hold it out all times

[patent snow]

T3 para mic range is SO long. Cleansing near the ghost is ez pz.

[plain violet]

2 of them are things u would do 100% of the time either way

U HAVE TO

[last drift]

Photo, cleanse, survive a hunt. Ez.

You need to know to docit

[vestal ferry]

Yeah it got fixed within a few weeks. It was absolutely scary lmfao. But we also had much better hiding spots back then so it wasnt, Toooo bad.

[plain violet]

if u dont know how stop and go learn how

[last drift]

Like you can't get around not learning how to do this. You have to learn how to do this in order to do that. If you don't know how to do that then you have to learn how to do that.

[plain violet]

this mf a troll
i swr to god

[vestal ferry]

Cant get it done without knowing basics

[last drift]

You're basically saying you want to take the bar exam?But you don't want to study law

I Guess if you take the bar exam enough , you will eventually pass

[plain violet]

u got so many great players here who are trying to help u and your just saying f all that useful info i want it done now so someone help even tho we helping as best as everyone can

[odd vale]

Learning the game and the ghosts and all that is how one would get Apoc 3 done.

Your resistance to take any advice and learn more is just turning anyone away from helping you

[plain violet]

is a figure of speach

[patent snow]

1: Para mic, especially T3, you can do from SO far away from the ghost that it can't even sense you. Figure out where the ghost is then go to a far room and just listen

2: Cleansing you can do from a decent range away as well with tier 3 incense, but I prefer tier 2 because I hate when the ghost checks my hiding spot and I cleanse it and it's just staring at me. I'd rather have it wander away. But you're probably just gonna need to do it anyway when it hunts you.

3: you have to do the photo anyway

[plain violet]

they aint gonna ban u cause u say ban me. they need a reason to ban 💀

[vestal ferry]

@last drift whens your next attempt? I wanna watch if i can.

[plain violet]

my days

[odd vale]

Okay

[last drift]

Oh I don't do attempts publicly

[vestal ferry]

dang....

[last drift]

I literally am too emotionally invested and literally throw tantrums and start crying

[plain violet]

he only does them for me

[odd vale]

I will let you know when I try for mine. I’m gonna stream it.

[last drift]

Like ugly crying

[patent snow]

Guys maybe we're in an ARG where we're doing apocalypse support in hard mode

[last drift]

Sobbing and shit. It's ridiculous.

[vestal ferry]

I can be that emotional rock when you do them hun

[vestal ferry]

[odd vale]

I’ll die over and over but yeah haha

[plain violet]

nah u get it first try

[odd vale]

Oh I hiiiiighly doubt that

[vestal ferry]

Lol just part of it. But will be fun anyway.

[modern mauve]

It's easy, just win

[prisma laurel]

Right now doing apoc 3

[plain violet]

mezzo first gold apoc on a crakced out rev

[vestal ferry]

Just go take a breather. Maybe think about the advice given.

[plain violet]

id love to watch like a funny clip thing of a rev in a apoc just going flying past the player

[last drift]

Bye.

[odd vale]

Then leave

[plain violet]

if u done just leave... its not that hard 😭

[patent snow]

They aren't going to ban you just because you asked them to ban you.

We've given you so much advice, so many helpful tips and you're just not listening to any of it. That's on you.

[odd vale]

We are simply not going to ban you because you say for us to.

[vestal ferry]

If i can find my old clip of the broken hantu doing just that

[zinc coyote]

[prisma laurel]

🤔

[plain violet]

if u find it send it to me i beg

i need to see a cracked out hantu

[vestal ferry]

I will. It was funny. Hard. But funny.

[plain violet]

W

[patent snow]

Yeah we know

It's pretty obvious

[lyric trench]

Just ignore that person and stop responding to them they'll eventually stop and leave

[plain violet]

am i the only one who think hes trolling? or is that a general thought?

[patent snow]

He's either trolling or he's 12 and never learned how to take advice

[plain violet]

valid analasis or however u spell it

[odd vale]

Okay. That’s enough guys. Just move on. Stop responding if you don’t wanna respond.

[plain violet]

👍

[lyric trench]

Either way he's just going to keep repeating himself until no one gives him attention. Simple. Easy

[analog widget]

finally

[runic cairn]

hello! just installed the game and i wanna play with someone in multiplayer im too much a scaredy cat to play alone skksks

[vernal plover]

Some randoms on phas really be strange

[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]

You can leave anytime on your own hun. If thats what you want to do.
But i just highly recommend stepping away for a bit to chill and such.

[plain violet]

not seen someone call another person hun in YEARS it reminds me of my yr 2 teacher

[odd vale]

I’m gonna play tomorrowwww

[vestal ferry]

I'm old.

[wise oyster]

I think I'm gonna play now. Until I get a Mare 2nd game and quit

[plain violet]

😭 wouldnt call you old for saying that. its more of a comforting name if that makes sense?

[odd vale]

May the RNG be ever in your favor.

[vestal ferry]

Just saying the truth. Im old xD

[plain violet]

😭

[prisma laurel]

I'm getting so much mylings for apoc 3

[analog widget]

You hate on Mare's too much

[split ingot]

Just need a refresher. Does Onryo hunt after 3 candle blowouts REGARDLESS of sanity?

[analog widget]

no

[wise oyster]

what would you like me to hate on?

[split ingot]

Ah so it does have to be low

[analog widget]

Jinn's or Goryo's

[plain violet]

whats the ghost that can only fully open doors?

[analog widget]

low enough to hunt

[plain violet]

is it yokia or yurie?

[wise oyster]

I'll hate on you for telling lies in phas chat

[split ingot]

Oh boy

[wise oyster]

no, Onryo can do its ability hunt at 100%. idk what Cardboard is on

[split ingot]

Lmao thank you

[analog widget]

really?

[wise oyster]

you've been doing too much 15x

[analog widget]

I am gonna have to fact check that

on the phasmophobia cheat sheet

[vestal ferry]

Every 3 flame blowouts it attempts to hunt.
It can hunt at 100% sanity

Just remember lighters count.

[split ingot]

Yeah i turn off my lighter as soon as i’m done with the 3rd lol

[analog widget]

huh that is true

[vestal ferry]

Id honestly say use the lighter only or 1 single candle, and light it by picking it up instead.

Just in case it does blow out the lighter as you turn the lighter off.

[split ingot]

True

[wise oyster]

I don't troll Phas chat. At least not about game info

[split ingot]

Well ✅ not an Onryo

Lmao im glad the discord mods are always here

[wise oyster]

including more candles ☝️

[vestal ferry]

Smudge timer, setup timer, other flames (6 second window after blowing out 3rd), hunt cooldown timer; all things that prevent onryo from hunting.

is the bone photo not working for anyone else?

[vestal ferry]

Works for me.

Could be bone is in weird spot though.

like in the journal it will say bone photo but then at the end of the match it doesnt count it

[lime token]

Gobble up the bone

omg i forgot u had to do that

lol

thanks

[vestal ferry]

Its your treat for investigating. Investigators need their calcium

[stoic swallow]

Where can I report a bug?

[warm wolf]

bro im never trusting a firelight to rule out shade ever again this is nuts. 3 games in a row shades blowing out my firelights in the ghost room while im there

[lime token]

Room boundaries can be quite wacky, ESPECIALLY om cww

[wise oyster]

Ghosts have an extra large range for blowing out firelights, 5m. It's easy for Shades to hit them from other rooms. Motion sensor can help so you're sure the ghost isn't in the room w/you

[warm wolf]

just funny the same thing happened 3 times in a row. game trying to teach me but i refuse to learn. fuck shades

[wise oyster]

[lime token]

I need to learn the cww entrance room boundary lol, the amount of times it blows it out like 2m away from me is insane

[wise oyster]

Poor Shades

[wise oyster]

yeah, b/c the line is like right there

[lime token]

Still, being able to rule out 16 ghosts is good

[wise oyster]

totally

[lime token]

Well, 15 in singleplayer

In the future it will get optimised enough for a yokai test 😁

[stoic swallow]

help

Wooo nothing better than getting 3 death fool cards and 2 hermit cards in one deck…

i have a big answer

is the tutoriel broken?

no, what makes you ask?

[lime token]

Shouldn't be no

[main meadow]

What part are you stuck on

[pallid drift]

i have been sitting in the spirit box room for about 20 minutes now with no response

[main meadow]

Turn off the lights in the room.

[prisma laurel]

Can u blow up moroi for me? Thanks.

[main meadow]

Knew it was that room

[pallid drift]

im in the dark

[lime token]

Sure

[jolly heron]

is the ghost for the challenge slow?

[south violet]

t1 spirit box is rlly bad so you might have to move around the room a lot

[pallid drift]

no lights, no flashlight, nothing just me and the spirit box and the same 7 items that get yeeted

[south violet]

is your mic working as well?

Under there

[covert viper]

There's music in the music box

But there's no spirit in the spirit box 😔

[jolly heron]

slow ghost challenge

[pallid drift]

dawg i felt stupid cause i could nevr get a response from the spirit box

[native canopy]

its strange your mic seems not to have been registering your audio?

if you were speaking

[wise oyster]

getting 5 photos on 0ev with low events is excruciating, even w/ a Deo

[lime token]

Gib more things to take photos of

[wise oyster]

fr

This round has taken at least 3x longer than it should

[lime token]

We should be able to take photos of the camera glitching out

[wise oyster]

unlimited ghost photos

you telling me GHD wouldn't want 2 ghost photos

[lime token]

No but they'll take contaminated water and a totally real levitating object

[echo musk]

I can't get a levitating object pic. ever.

[wise oyster]

I have a few times in controlled spaces

[lime token]

Gotta have dem fast fingerz

[wise oyster]

not* gonna try it on Nells

[covert viper]

I had a horrible joke in mind oh god

[echo musk]

holding cam. waiting for salt. item lifts. snap. $0. salt gets stepped in, get uv prints...

[lime token]

Oh that reminds me, whenever I see a floaty bone on cww, I do a quick little 180 to snap a photo of it, but instead of getting the bone photo, I somehow get an interaction photo lol

[wise oyster]

W

f this, I've spent 15 minutes trying to get 1 photo

I'd rather play a sub-10x game than deal w/ this

[covert viper]

Rip perfect game meta

[wise oyster]

yup, only took 2 games to piss me off, and it wasn't even a Mare

[timber cloak]

Have the ghost been bugging for you guys?

[lime token]

People remember the 9 salt photos, but what about the 10 interaction photos

[analog widget]

quiting already?

[timber cloak]

Shade doing stuff while you’re in the same room as it?

[wise oyster]

that was a 23-minute DEO game that I walked away from 1 photo short. FFFFFFF

[wise oyster]

yes, Chronicle needs an update so freaking badly

[wise oyster]

ghost has left the room but can still interact with items in range

[lime token]

It can step outside the room and then interact with objects with you giving the illusion of throwing items on the same room as you

[covert viper]

How come

[timber cloak]

Oh wtf man

[wise oyster]

well, in terms of the current gripe, not enough things to take photos of in 0ev

but I've got another 5-6 I could think of

[covert viper]

So then just photos needing an update

Dang I thought chronicle was cooked for a sec lol

Yeah I feel that too happens to me all the time too I intensively agree

[wise oyster]

Photo opportunities, $0 deletions, event and other video timings, various issues with sound recorder not picking up the correct sound, and b/c it's now essentially mandatory to take in 3 media items, inventory management is now a much bigger problem than before, which also leads into travel times to/from the van being a bigger issue than before.

[alpine sky]

We need an increased price for interaction photos. Actually somewhat difficult to take.

[wise oyster]

tbh anything still labeled "interaction" needs its own name

[alpine sky]

Or keep same price but increase the window for taking one

[alpine sky]

Yeah

[wise oyster]

So the media system certainly isn't cooked, but it might be a little half-baked. Needs more iterative refinement.

[warm mason]

what will horror 2.0 bring?

[wise oyster]

"a large horror overhaul of the ghost and game mechanics."

[alpine sky]

With the sound recorder not picking up the correct sound, I reckon they should make it so that it prioritises recording the most valuable sound first, similar to what they've done with photos

I've got paranormal sounds mid hunt instead of hunting audio so many times

[wise oyster]

That's another, b/c they didn't actually do anything to fix photos when Chronicle came out

We still have the same problems of people clearly getting Ghost/DOTS photos tha don't count, or the game picking up trivial stuff like Freezing Temps instead of a Ghost clearly in frame

[lime token]

1 thing I like about the photos is the sheer range of it lol

[wise oyster]

tbh I think the range hasn't changed, we're just not after 3-star photos anymore. And yes, that's a big plus

I could write half a dozen things I love about it, too, but I want it to be the best it can be.

[alpine sky]

It's funny that you say the latter there, because I recall that they did claim to fix that from happening by prioritising higher value photos in one frame

[lime token]

"Oh this ghost is eventing, too bad I have to go right beside it to get a good picture"

[wise oyster]

at one point you're right, but they never got it quite right, and eventually the go-to answer became: It'll get fixed in the photo overhaul

I have a feeling we won't see improvement for event-related issues until Horror 2.0

[crimson cape]

I tried to get a video of a dots ghost but it disappeared too quickly every time and then I couldn’t try anymore because it was a thaye that got too old to do anything

[alpine sky]

Yeah probably not

[covert viper]

Ion mind some of that but the sound recorder bugs are annoying as hell and well ye gl recording dots for example and also still wth are those half a millisec long ghost events???

Inv imo at least adds even more to the difficulty

[wise oyster]

In an evidence game, I've had an EMF5 sound recording, then the ghost evented nearby, I moved towards the ghost to get the event audio, and it gave me a duplicate EMF5

[crimson cape]

Ghost events last 20 seconds when you don’t have any media devices and 0.002 seconds when you do

[covert viper]

I've had 3 things happen at once for a solid 2-3 seconds long and it recorded NONE..

[wise oyster]

too many "feels bad" moments is all.

[fair arrow]

is t2 smudge footsteps at 1 beat per sec?

[covert viper]

Detecting hunting ghost disappearing after 1st two seconds like wha

[alpine sky]

What other photos do you reckon they could add though

[distant shale]

@crimson cape also dots gl getting a photo or especially video

[lime token]

It depends on the speed of the ghost, they're all different

[alpine sky]

Has anyone gotten that bug where your sound recorder refuses to pick up the hunting ghost? It just doesn't show on the screen that it's detecting anything.

[lime token]

You gotta be host

And what I've noticed is that if you hold record for like 0.1 seconds and then release or switch items, you can't record the ghost for the duration of that hunt

[covert viper]

Yuh

Still the same source of problem tho

Ye the host thing

[alpine sky]

Happened to me many times in singleplayer though

[covert viper]

Ye exactlyyyy smh

[tardy hedge]

[carmine gate]

Does anyone know how to fix the game crashing on pc when loading into a multi-player game? Everything is up to date and verified so im not sure what the issue could be

[foggy wind]

Imagine 😭 💀

[carmine gate]

So update it only has this problem at the diner which my gf and I are trying to get the new badge for. Any and all help would be appreciated

[foggy wind]

I don't know, I feel like theres been a few issues with badges since that one, when I got it I started having problems with other badges, support attempted a reset and it wiped everything instead from the looks of it 😭

[wise oyster]

This maybe? From #known-issues
"Users with integrated graphics crashing at 90% when loading into Nell's Diner. (For some users, setting graphics to lowest, making sure drivers are updated and loading into another map first will fix this issue)"

[carmine gate]

Everything is good so idk we will try that though

[zinc coyote]

[south violet]

actually what i did was a 0 sanity run where i would figure out where the ghost is but i could make it so i would gain sanity from sanity meds. i would put it on 1-2 evidence so i still go a lot of XP and it was how i simultaneously got nomad and XP at the same time.

so it was just hunt > figure out where ghost is (if i don't know what it is i would get the evi) then just hope.

sometimes i would get obvious ghosts fast tho so i just left instantly.

[thorny gorge]

anyone else gets "Disconnected, Server timeout" the whole time?

[hazy needle]

I played with my dad the other night, my mom walked in, saw the ghost chasing me, and screamed at the top of her lungs

[real crow]

Hi guys!
I died in a game, but I didn't recieved any penalty (the "you died - X%" was not there, recived as musch as money that i would get without the penalty).
Does anyone know it is a bug or they changed it? (i have a screenshot of it for proof just in case)

[tawny juniper]

that's a first for me

[zinc coyote]

Gotta get her to play with you guys!

Family phas sounds fun

[vital sonnet]

We were doing challenge mode and we got the least obvious banshee.
Walked right through one of us twice.

I will try! Hopefully she doesn't let out a bloodcurdling scream again though

100 sanity

[echo musk]

events are random in what you described. so doesn't specify a ghost type.

[lunar parrot]

Anyone else having issues videoing during a hunt?

[echo musk]

sometimes. not often. moreso when i'm not the host.

[main meadow]

Only when the ghost snaps my neck before I complete the video.

[fair arrow]

for banshee, does it always target the host on the 2nd hunt?

[main meadow]

Every hunt the target is inside the location it will only kill it's target.

The only time it is not targeting the target is when the target is outside the huntable area. Then you are all the targets.

[fair arrow]

hmmm okaa

[crimson cape]

I like how ghosts can now violently slam doors in the house but still gently close the front door for hunts

[lament gulch]

Does anyone believe Ouija boards are legit? I know many people use it ingame as its just a game, but I know they wouldnt use it irl as well?

[crimson cape]

It’s literally a board game from Hasbro

I doubt a toy company knows how to summon demons

[echo musk]

for...reasons...I'll just say this. If you know the arts and use the arts then it is legit. If you don't know shit and do it, you bound to cause trouble.

[brave osprey]

is anyone having server issues with america?

[echo musk]

to add: real practicioners who've studied the arts for years vs the google wiki readers and think they know everything. (difference in knowing the art and don't know shit)

[prime elk]

Steam performs weekly maintenance every Tuesday, thus possibly being the reason for troubles purchasing the game or maintaining connection. Please be patient while Valve completes their weekly routine.

[echo musk]

i did it right this time! hooray!

[crimson cape]

I’ll just say that I continue to await a controlled study that demonstrates a talking board can reveal information that the group interacting with it doesn’t know already.

[echo musk]

sorry. I don't video my arts. I hope you find someone that does and GL with that search.

[runic harbor]

yo bro i think its a mimic i got orbs

[echo musk]

Oh. i was about to say what else but i don't entertain trolls. 🙂

[jovial thistle]

did they change the onryo test?

it blew out the candle 6 times before popping cruci and because of that i assumed it wasnt an onryo

[echo musk]

depends where the objects were vs the ghost.

in RL, if you standing on cruci and candle is like 3 ft away from you it could easily blow it out and not reach the cruci

[jovial thistle]

ah

I guess that makes sense

[echo musk]

also, during regular roam, it can put it out too. (least how i see it)

inwardly i'm irrked when ppl put the cruci and candle next to each other. I get the point but never has been reliable enough to me. so when they do that, i put the others at a distance essentially saying "hey ghost, if you want me that bad, blow that one then that one then this one and you make your way to me"

candle, small distance, candle, small distance, candle w/cruci so if it does it quick, then i can say possibly still onryo and do it all again with 0 ev games or rule out factor with #ev games

[south violet]

does sunny meadows restricted work for doing inmate?

[echo musk]

yes. I recall they work better on restricted. how i did mine.

sometimes, a game will not show after but will after the next game. a lag if you will. just heads up

[south violet]

this happened to me when i was doing nomad

i just want to get all of the 50 ghosts right challenges for the ID cards before i go back to prestiege grinding

[echo musk]

makes sense. just be careful of wasted levels 🙂 so to keep from leveling much, just do ev, no media no objectives don't collect bone, and amateur difficulty. gives lowest possible multiplyer so you get the card but not level to much of a waste after prestigue.

considering there's 2000 lvls for all prestige cards, might as well prest and just play. best time spending but your goals are your goals 😄 you do them how ya want.

[static atlas]

whats a good way to memorize every ghost's traits so i can do no evidence?

[echo musk]

For fun facts and about learning Ghost Abilities/Traits/Speeds and Beaviors, Object locations and other usefull info use the ZN Unofficial Cheat Sheet!

study ^

[lunar harbor]

cheat sheet + play a bunch + learn from more experienced players !

[crimson cape]

Ghost: You drew the Death card! Time to die!

Me: 🤓 well, um, actually, the Death card in Tarot does not refer to physical death and instead has to do with an end of a relationship, interest, or noises of getting strangled

[echo musk]

and in phasmo it just forces a hunt. lol good play. they all failed school and hate Brownstone 🙂

[zinc coyote]

[crimson cape]

Phasmo definitely plays it loose with paranormal terms but that’s obviously completely fine.

It’s still funny to see how ‘wrong’ it gets some stuff, though : P

Onryos in real life ‘lore’ are able to cause massive natural disasters while the phasmophobia ones are scared by candles

[lament ore]

Like how ghosts murder people after they’re in the dark too long

It’s also weird we have all the ghosts based in Japanese folklore yet the ghost names are like Fred Johnson

[echo musk]

because to many international players couldn't pronounce things properly back when the name actually did something. hell most aren't even pronouncing the entities correctly as they are now lol. but i digress from that and say

GM/GA/GE/GN all. Happy hunting! Until next time!

[toxic glacier]

is anyone out there kind & patient enough to help me complete the first apocalypse? i'm struggling

[main meadow]

We have a couple of places to learn about ghosts and abilities.
First we have The Beginner's guide
and then #1254568921110024254 for ghost info, cursed object info and more!
And
Check out the Cheat sheet to help learn ghost info, speeds, map info and much more!

[crimson cape]

I don’t even remember what saying the ghost’s name actually does.

[tame raft]

I just got the ghost right with out trying to I was just trying to practice looping the ghost it turned the light off in the ghost room it gave it self away

[lunar harbor]

angery

[crimson cape]

“How dare you remind me how much my parents sucked at naming their kids!”

[lament ore]

I think it increases activity

[toxic glacier]

would anyone be willing to sit in vc & watch me do an apocalypse run to try & help me figure out the ghost? i've done a LOT of no evidence runs but i'm not having good luck on sunny meadows

[crimson cape]

Always goryo

[toxic glacier]

i get frequent morois personally

[lunar harbor]

i think you will feel a much greater sense of satisfaction if you do it solo

[crimson cape]

The goryo emoji is 300% cooler than the goryo itself

Actually more likely 20,000% cooler

[chrome kernel]

Anyone fancy calling whilst I try apoc 1 as I’m scared of the map 🤣🤣

[toxic glacier]

yeah prob but i scared

spooky ghost

[sage flower]

[vast sleet]

If you join a vc I can try to help guide you through it

I've done Apoc 3 but that's a whole different beast

[pseudo viper]

Hey guys, my phasmo isnt working, anyone else?

[vast sleet]

What's wrong with it?

Like is it not opening? Not connecting to servers?

[chrome kernel]

Sounds good to me

[pseudo viper]

Unity services error, too many requests

[vast sleet]

I'd look it up, but also could just be an issue where you verify file integrity

[pseudo viper]

my friends are having this issue to, gonna verify files

[vast sleet]

If verifying doesn't work, do a full uninstall and reinstall

[pseudo viper]

k

[crimson cape]

Make sure there isn’t a real life ghost event disrupting your gaming device!

What’s everyone’s favorite cursed possession? I’m too scared to use them but the tarot cards look the funniest in videos

I have a head canon that player deaths are canon and our unnamed bosses just have a huge stack of High Priestess cards somewhere

[vast sleet]

Tarot because gambling

[vast sleet]

Well you also gotta think, do the cards lose effect over time? Or is every deck cursed/enchanted when our employer has them?

[crimson cape]

Imagine you’re at a tarot reading and the psychic pulls out that card and dies on the spot in front of you

[glacial finch]

then you gamble untill you can bring them back

[crimson cape]

inb4 Ghost Huntin’ Distribution makes ALL the cursed objects and sells them as toys in order to trick people into summing ghosts for us to hunt

[vast sleet]

Who gets rid of the ghosts

I've never understood why we don't exorcise them

[glacial finch]

ghostbusters

[glacial finch]

then the ghostbusters don't get payed

[vast sleet]

Hmmm... very good point.

[crimson cape]

This could be outdated lore but I believe there are three teams that respond to a haunting. There’s the preliminary team that confirms there’s a ghost and gets basic stuff like the name, there’s our team that learns the ghost type, and then there’s a ghost removal team that goes in after we leave

[magic tiger]

Gosh damnit you

Took my reply

But phasmo would be the perfect game for Ghostbusters to have a Collab with.

[zinc coyote]

Fortnite collab when

[glacial finch]

honestly would work well, like we could earn points to get the outfit idk how else it work would, maybe some ghost skins

[glacial finch]

Phas player skins in fortnite, only 3500 Vbucks for 4 skins

[zinc coyote]

[slow storm]

theres a bug in the game rn i think-

[wise oyster]

[slow storm]

im so upset rn

[magic tiger]

CJ should make a player model that looks like him, probably used only by him, when the player customization gets released.

[crimson cape]

I have a just-for-fun spitball for a Krampus ghost type.

Its hunting threshold increases the longer you go without adding a new piece to the Media pages. It perceives not capturing new media as being lazy and therefore naughty.

[fading jackal]

so the diner has some fun 0 sanity 0 evidence strats. i prestiged after grinding the halloween event, and honestly, doing 0 sanity 0 evidence runs on the diner has been some fun grinding. both to regain decent equipment and to get the diner badge.

[crimson cape]

It definitely seems like a fun map

I still prefer the vibe of the house maps though

If a mimic pretends to be a Moroi, curses you, and begins pretending to be something else, do you still have the curse?

[wise oyster]

yes

[fading jackal]

very fair. tanglewood my beloved.

[crimson cape]

😳

[fading jackal]

mimic: becomes moroi and curses you.
also mimic: becomes yokai so it can early hunt you while you're still using the spirit box
also also mimic: becomes demon right after hunting so it can hunt again after 20 seconds instead of 25

mimics are the scarriest ghost in the game because after the first minute inside the map, they become schrodinger's ghost.

[alpine sky]

Seeing orbs on 0 ev right after entering the house:

Bye bye mimic, you can't screw me over this time

[fickle meteor]

mimic ez

[fading jackal]

yup. unless you're also playing 0 sanity. 😛

"i see ghost orbs, time to leave."
door: shuts
"ah fuck."

[soft forum]

hi

how do i report an issue i'm having with the game?

[analog widget]

Check #known-issues first and if its not there then #bug-reports

[fading jackal]

||report the bug and wait 3 to 5 business years||

[rich thistle]

Is there a support center or something I can contact about losing my level on my account

[odd vale]

DM @violet nova

[fading jackal]

have to wonder how that can happen. but i've heard hackers can do a lot of stuff to other people's accounts.

hope you can get it fixed.

speaking of hackers, i know they're an issue, among other kinds of questionable "players". so is there a reasonable solution to those issues? besides just playing with friends only or solo.

[odd vale]

Usually losing levels has nothing to do with hackers. It’s more like resetting windows, alt+F4, pressing the reset save file button and not reading the warnings…

[odd vale]

A new anti cheat is in the works

[fading jackal]

that'll help with the hackers at least. what about the people advertising that you can pay them for levels/prestiges? i mean it's bad enough that can happen period, but when they just make public lobbies advertising it...

[night walrus]

Second successful guess in sunny meadows

[fading jackal]

hell yeah.

[night walrus]

Could have gotten more than 2.5k in professional difficulty (got 2.2k) but didn’t get the “escape the ghost” task. Started two cursed hunts and it didn’t count it.

Also media wise I didn’t get the good ones

[fading jackal]

yeah it has to see you for that to trigger.

[night walrus]

Didn’t get the hunting ghost clip, cruci burning video or audio was saving for it tho

[fading jackal]

oh. be careful with hunting ghost videos if you're dealing with an obake because getting a video of the obake shapeshift is quite likely during a hunt, and it doesn't count as a ghost video for the objective. thanks kinetic.

unless they've shadow patched it.

[night walrus]

I had that one time. Thinking I got the hunting ghost video and the shapeshift video just revealed to me it was an Obake. I only got one of the evidence from that so far

[fading jackal]

yeah. it can be a run killer if you're doing challenges.

[night walrus]

The one thing I kinda don’t like with sunny meadows is that when the ghost hunts there are multiple doors that lock. It killed me the first time I played that map. Only to then notice there are stairs that go downstairs that lead to the main enterance.

[zenith halo]

Why can’t I see my cursor?

[hybrid crescent]

Increase the opacity of the crosshair in the setting

[zenith halo]

It’s all the way up

[modern mauve]

Change the settings within a game rather than the lobby

It's a known issue rn, and this is a workaround

[untold creek]

Has anyone else had issues on willow Street? Me and my friend have had an issue where if the ghost is in the garage the ghost will become stuck inside the truck preventing gathering of evidence most runs. This has happened multiple times now

[alpine bough]

I pulled death like 4 times with no hunt at all

[analog widget]

what difficulty were you on?

[alpine bough]

Intermediate

It took 24 mins of yelling in the dark on zero sanity to get it to hunt :/ we just needed a ghost photo for daily

[analog widget]

Were you doing the thing where you walk right outside of the house as you pull the cards?

[alpine bough]

Nope, in living room on willow

I pulled tower first if that matters?

[analog widget]

no that doesn't matter

What tier of crucifix did you have

[alpine bough]

2 there was no crucifix in the house, just me a light and photo cam

[analog widget]

hmmm

None of the cards turned into the fool right?

[alpine bough]

Nope, one towards the end but that was after

[analog widget]

hmm that's weird

Honestly it could be a bug. Phasmophobia is a very buggy game and has lots of weird crap happen all the time like for example I got doom slayed from a Poltergeist on Willow, not sure how but I just did.

[alpine bough]

Weird

[analog widget]

Sorry that I can't find a reason for why your death card wasn't working

[onyx panther]

Guys I have a cool idea

Each time I reach a new Prestige, I’ll get the merch that corresponds to what Prestige I’m at.

Well, the shirts specifically.

[analog widget]

You can do that but you might go broke in the process

[rain nova]

where can u loop in nells diner? that isnt too difficult

[analog widget]

Kitchen counter

[visual bear]

question, if i lose my dots projector to the ceiling, how do i get it back lol

[rain nova]

is that the only spot

[analog widget]

Keep trying to pick it up until you succeed

[analog widget]

There's the counter looping spot

[onyx panther]

It’ll take me ages to get to another Prestige anyway, so it’ll be like 4 months until Prestige 2 lol

But yes you are right, the merch is cool though so idm

[fervent fractal]

Has anyone experienced frame drops from Bleasdale Farmhouse or im just the only one

[native canopy]

Getting t1 dots on camp woodwind feels like a needle in a haystack

[kindred lodge]

Using camera and dots is hell

[onyx panther]

I have it’s fucking horrendous

Is it more on console than PC?

Hopefully the Unity 6 update should fix some performance

[zinc coyote]

[toxic glacier]

apocalypse fuck up #3: i did EVERYTHING right, but i fudged the ghost photo so it didnt count. strangers please comfort me

[fervent fractal]

Talking to my friend and their frames on console drop by 40 while mine dropped to 30fps

And there is a bug on console as well if you say "Hide and Seek" while they are on cams it bugs em

[onyx panther]

interesting…

[fervent fractal]

It happened to my friend when i was trying to identify the ghost

[onyx panther]

Yep, accurate.

[fervent fractal]

I said hide and seek which caused the bug to occur on my friend while on cams and they couldnt escape at all, and i died later on so we couldn't complete the contract and the only fix was for them to leave for it to end

[onyx panther]

oof

I’m nearly on Prestige 1

🙏🙏

[south violet]

yooo

i got my 2nd apoc 3 victory.

[quiet briar]

huge

I got a bunch under my belt trying to show my friends the general idea of apoc on stream

I’ll never forget my first though…

yokai❤️

[native canopy]

If you can do all that once, you can surely do it again

You got this

[gentle stream]

Mustve got a deo

[agile epoch]

Get better at the game. I have more deaths than the contracts won

[vestal ferry]

Ah yes. The best encourgement.

[agile epoch]

Hey it works

[vestal ferry]

Cant ever trust a penguin. Smh

[agile epoch]

Penguins are fake tbh

[zinc coyote]

[south violet]

it was a raiju

[gentle stream]

wow easiest ghost in the game

doesn anyone wanna play phasmo?

[glacial finch]

your all good

[worn glade]

Guys, what do I do when the ouija board says the ghost is lonely, but it's still hunting my posterior organ off
do I leave it be, or do I give it a hug?
the game is giving me a lot of mixed signals here

[glacial finch]

call dr house

[gentle stream]

she wants u bro trust

[compact geyser]

Hello, I’ll be posting this message until I do get help so I apologise in advance if it’s annoying. I’m desperately looking for help with Apoc 3 on PS5 either via sharescreen or shareplay. If anyone can I will really appreciate it :)

[vestal ferry]

Ok then. Just play the game.

Learn 0ev 0san 150% ghosts and go forth.

[mossy bay]

what is the chance to get 2 blood moons in a row?

[native canopy]

0.16%

[mossy bay]

thanks

[native canopy]

Np

[tardy hedge]

Feels nice getting in the swing of things again. what wonders a few singleplayer professional games can accomplish

[worn glade]

When the daily or weekly says "get X on nightmare or harder", does it include custom modes as long as ev amounts is less than 3?

or its multiplier matching the value?

[alpine sky]

Only the multiplier matters; as long as it is equal to nightmares (4x) or higher

[worn glade]

thanks, that does make sense

I have a 3ev custom mode with >4x mp, so that helps, I wasn't looking forward to getting 3 perfect investigation rewards with less than 3ev, getting 5 photos always takes the longest

video and sound is never a problem, but the photocam really got the shaft in the chronicle update

even with 3evs you still gotta be lucky with which evs you get

maybe a strange question, but why is the OPEN sign of the Nell's Diner dependant on the breaker?
It's not connected to the grid, and seems to have a battery holder

[thorn spruce]

yea photos are rough. Its usually emf, cursed object, bone, burned cruci and ghost/event

[worn glade]

I got my photos almost instantly this time

dirty water, UV, bone

and freezing

UV is the nicest evidence, 2 photos, 3 even if you're lucky with an obake

it's kinda funny to have a Jinn in one bathroom, and it makes Dirty Water in every single sink of the other bathroom
