[wise oyster]

tanglewood doesn't need hiding spots. Just don't get cornered

[daring perch]

and i had 200% ghost speed so no looping

[wise oyster]

there is no 200%

[daring perch]

or whatever the max was

if i had a rev a single game with those settings i would downright cry

[wise oyster]

Just do this

[daring perch]

you are not looping a ghost that is at max speed for custom settings

[wise oyster]

I literally just linked to a post in #videos where Justly explains how to do that

[daring perch]

if it’s a rev tho…. survival is almost zero since it speeds up

[wise oyster]

I'd ask him if he were around, but I'm pretty sure they're even easier b/c at that point the faster the ghost the better

[daring perch]

what’s worse a demon on 0 sanity or a thaye that’s 4, and at max ghost speed (custom)

[next loom]

bro on the 5000 woodwind challenge why was a fuckihng goryo sprinting around the map like a Raiju

[sly jolt]

150% speed modifier for the weekly

[prisma laurel]

The challenge was pretty easy for me

[daring perch]

i really don’t understand what the point of the deogen is when you can loop it around a coffee table

[river wraith]

imagine my face when i got a rev

[next loom]

I just got a Raiju and had equipment up

couldn't even see him bc of how fast he was moving 😂

[next loom]

I struggled 😭

[river wraith]

same, i just accepted my fate

[prisma laurel]

Just be pro

[sly nova]

Yo does a moroi has los?

[solemn stream]

Yes

[sly nova]

K thx

[hollow mulch]

is the hunt duration on apoc 3 Sunny Meadows always 60 seconds even when turned to medium hunt?

[wise oyster]

it'd be 50s at Medium

[hollow mulch]

thanks

[lime holly]

58 minute bleasdale game on 14x with upstairs bathroom ghost. I think its between mare and jinn. havent heard a single lightswitch

yall think go mare or wait longer?

[atomic leaf]

ahh yes the torture that is bleasdale

probably shitty mare

[lime holly]

Oh thats surpising… its a yurei

Apparently 25 abilities somewhere… oooof

[atomic leaf]

did it break the door?

well after the first ability the door would be broken so I could've just answered my own question lmao

[lime holly]

Idk. Think i just did a skill issue.

I heard a door shut from paramic earlier. I think i ruled out yurei because it didnt fully open the door to outside porch while looping at piano at like the very end of the hunt

but i thought yurei at the beginning too

[atomic leaf]

ahh I see

[wise oyster]

I thought that didn't apply during hunts

[lime holly]

Yeah i dont think it does. But it happened right at the end of a hunt (disappeared -> the lingering door touch did not fully open it)

[wise oyster]

ehhhh, I wouldn't think to rule out Yurei based on that

[atomic leaf]

maybe one of those delayed ahh touches

[lime holly]

yeah :c

[wise oyster]

yeah I'd want a cleaner example

[left fiber]

Do shades only show up as shadow in summoning circle or can they be visible?

[lime holly]

they can be visible

[atomic leaf]

50% chance

[wise oyster]

they're rarely shadow form, and they're the only ghost that can

[wise oyster]

oh is it that high?

[atomic leaf]

yeah that’s what i’ve heard

[wise oyster]

I would've thought much lower, that's decent

[atomic leaf]

certainly felt that way too when I was grinding with music box

[wise oyster]

aha

[left fiber]

Thanks 🫡

[atomic leaf]

playing against a shade on apoc 3 is like watching paint dry

I remembered one of my games today and just remember absolutely nothing happening lmao

[hollow mulch]

im actually watching your vods to learn how to get my apoc 3 challenge lol

[atomic leaf]

I hope you find some useful info from them 🫡

although I play very aggressive in my games

[hollow mulch]

a ton for sure!

[wise oyster]

how to juggle 4 firelights to restricted wing

[atomic leaf]

LMAO

someone came into my chat today and was like “omg it’s the Justly juggle” 😭

[last drift]

Now clip it to some music

[atomic leaf]

i’ll make a montage out of it

[fast stone]

on nightmare, is the fusebox remaining on after hunts a jinn-limited thing or is that a bug when its happens with other ghosts?

[wise oyster]

the breaker doesn't turn off when hunts end

[fast stone]

oh

is that only on nightmare?

[wise oyster]

no

lights turn off when hunts end. breaker/fusebox is something else

[fast stone]

i see, thanks

[lone zodiac]

i fucking hate mimic

[stark dove]

[wise oyster]

[dire vessel]

fun fact: when you put me on a tripod its like taking a crap on a toilet

[wintry thorn]

Do we know when the winter event will start? Was hoping they would've started on the 1st considering this is such a busy month for most

[wise oyster]

they haven't announced the date yet

[dry ocean]

I usually play solo but I've been trying some multiplayer recently. The biggest thing that surprises me is that no-one else seems to bother turning lights on. I feel like the opposite of a stereotypical dad, flicking all the lights on and saying "I don't own the sanity company"

[thorn spruce]

Yea i notice new players often actively switch off lights and stand in the dark cuz they say thats what the pros do on youtube. Next thing they get hunted and die 😂 💀

[lime bobcat]

I just noticed that there's now shelves on the wall right behind the store screen. When were they added?

[pulsar ether]

Yeah im a breaker on/lights on guy unless I start to suspect Jinn.

[dry ocean]

I only turn them off if I am playing less than 3 evidence and I need the ghost to hunt. If you keep the lights on you can take soooo much time investigating without really worrying about hunts.

[hard girder]

The holiday event coming soon 🤩

[undone quail]

Hello everyone

I'm new to PHAS and currently just want to play alone, but apparently I need equipment on the bus? But I don't have money to buy equipment? Am I understanding this wrong? Can someone please help me qwq

[hard girder]

I have only 2,8M$ sorry 🙏

[stark dove]

you will still get the t1 starter items when you load into a round

you can make money with these items and buy more gear

[undone quail]

Huh, okay
But for some reason it won't let me start the game
My start button is dark and not light

[stark dove]

did you select a map?

[undone quail]

Where do I choose that?

That's probably my problem qwq

[stark dove]

you can click the left arrow when on the main board or go up to the board with the maps and click on it

[undone quail]

Thank you so much ☺️💜

[stark dove]

yep np!

[lament wing]

Are Revenants really difficult to loop?
I was thinking of maybe attempting for Escape Artist achievement

[stark dove]

you dont really need to loop for escape artist

[lament wing]

I just got a Revenant, but I'm not very confident in looping yet in general, so I just hid when it decided to hunt.
But I was thinking of next time maybe getting Escape Artist

[stark dove]

just let it see you then smudge and hide

[lament wing]

Ah, that works?

How long do I need to let it see me before I smudge?

[stark dove]

theres no minimum time that it needs to see you

just get LoS and live the hunt

[lament wing]

So I can just let it get a glance or something?

[stark dove]

yep

[lament wing]

Btw, is Edie considered a male or female name in the game?
Just got an Edie, and an optional objective is to escape the ghost, but I'd rather not risk it if it's one of the females that can crawl

[stark dove]

female ghost

but 2 of the female models cant crawl

[lament wing]

The female models are 4 in terms of amount, right?
So it's a 50/50 whether the ghost can crawl in terms of the model chosen, right?

[stark dove]

you could say that, yeah

[lament wing]

Welp, this time I got a Thaye, I definitely don't want to loop that 🤣

Thankfully it's the model that can't crawl, so I might get the "escape the ghost" if I stay in the room long enough

[dry ocean]

Crawlers are the wooooorst

[lament wing]

How long do you have to stay in the ghost room before Thaye becomes normal speed?

[stark dove]

you have to be in the room with a thaye when it attempts an age

[dry ocean]

Ages every 1-2 minutes and needs to age 5 times to be normal speed

[stark dove]

which happens every 1-2mins unless the attempted age fails then it will try again in exactly 30seconds

[lament wing]

I know, but it's been staying in the ghost room almost the entire time, I've been getting frequent DOTS and activity, so I think I'm in the correct room if I want it to age

[dry ocean]

Sorry, has to age 6 times to be normal speed

[lament wing]

That's around 6-12 minutes, assuming I'm in the same room as it

[dry ocean]

Yeah

Any time it attempts to age while out of the room will add 30 seconds

[lament wing]

If it keeps giving activity and DOTS in the basement, in my case
That means it is indeed in the basement right now, right?

[dry ocean]

DOTS shows you exactly where it is

The activity can be done from outside the room, but not so much from the basement

[lament wing]

Oh ok, I thought DOTS just showed you its rough location

I'm also getting frequent detections from Sound Recorder

Tier 1 btw

[dry ocean]

Nah, it used to just be an interaction and not its real location. When they reworked the evidence it made it so it enters a dots state and wanders towards the nearest player

[lament wing]

Not sure how wide the T1 Sound Recorder's range is, though

[dry ocean]

Preeeeetty small

[lament wing]

Does DOTS indicate how fast it is when it hunts?
Sorry if the questions are stupid, I'm not that experienced yet 😅

[dry ocean]

And in a basement there's very few locations it can be outside the room and still interact with things in the room. Since all the other rooms are on other floors except the stairway which sometimes seems to interact weirdly

All good. Happy to help.

Nah, DOTS doesn't correlate with hunt speed

[lament wing]

I don't think this Thaye likes me too much
Just heard from the Sound Recorder "GET OUT"

[stark dove]

3m

[dry ocean]

That's one of the ghosties favourite things to say 😛

[lament wing]

I think the Investigation has gone on 25-30 minutes by now, most of the time has been spent in ghost room

[dry ocean]

Yeah, it'll probably be full slow

[lament wing]

Is it safe to let my sanity drain and loop it now?
I've got an optional objective to escape it during a hunt

[dry ocean]

Tbh you don't need to loop it. Find a hiding spot, let it see you, smudge it and jump into the hiding spot.

The slower it is the easier it'll be to do that, but even full speed it's not too hard if you keep calm

[lament wing]

Ah yeah, that's right
I was just nervous when I did the Cursed Hunt test and realized it was a Thaye
I've never looped a ghost as fast as a young Thaye, so I was kind of scared to let it hunt me

[dry ocean]

Yeah, I don't recommend trying to loop a young Thaye

[lament wing]

I've got just under 50 hours, I'm good enough at looping a normal speed ghost, so long as it doesn't turn around 24/7
but I haven't attempted to loop any fast ones

[dry ocean]

Yeah. If you're confident looping normal speed ghosts you should be fine with the speed it's at now

[lament wing]

I'm pretty confident as long as it doesn't spawn in the kitchen

[dry ocean]

And it doesn't speed up with LOS

[dry ocean]

Chuck down a crucifix there

[lament wing]

Lowkey wish I had a Summoning Circle with me so I could force a hunt and get it over with

[stark dove]

keep in mind that ghosts with LoS speed up will be 1.65x their base speed when they have LoS for 13 seconds so you've likely looped a pretty fast ghost before

[lament wing]

But I've got a Tier 2 Crucifix, won't it reach down into the Basement and stop the Thaye? If it is in the basement at the time it decides to hunt

[dry ocean]

If it's max age you'll need to wait till 15% sanity 😛

[stark dove]

a normal 1.7m/s ghost can get up to 2.8m/s (faster than thayes 2.75m/s)

[dry ocean]

Nah, crucifix shouldn't affect other floors

[lament wing]

My first time I ever tried looping was against a Mare
I made the mistake of standing up so it reached a pretty fast speed

I held it for about 2-3 rounds around the counter, not sure how fast it would be by that time
When it was able to catch up to me relatively easily I smudged it and hid

I think I've only died twice when I actually attempted to loop
Once against a kid Jinn, and once against an adult Yokai

[lament wing]

The Yokai I needed a video of, but I realized too late I forgot the Incense and died once I got too nervous and lost track of it 😅

The Jinn killed me before I could even start trying to loop it lmao

[stark dove]

you could always turn the breaker off to nerf jinn a bit, unless you want the speed up ofc

[lament wing]

I didn't know it at the time
After getting evidence I noticed it was a Jinn, thought I could loop and died way too quickly

[stark dove]

ah okay

[lament wing]

Should I try getting a video, photo and the sound recorder evidence for the Thaye?

I have slots for that, I just don't know how fast it is

It should be normal speed or slower by now since I spent a lot of time in the basement with it

[stark dove]

try hiding and listen to its speed before deciding to loop

you should try for a perfect

[lament wing]

Now that I think about it, I could hide with an Incense behind the counter, I got a Crucifix set up, I just need to wait in the dark for a while

[lament wing]

I'm at like 70-75% sanity, if it is at its lowest speed, that'll take pretty long before it can hunt, right?
Not to mention that I don't think the perfect grants me a huge bonus

[dry ocean]

It's probably gonna be slooooow

[dry ocean]

15%

[lament wing]

I've already managed perfect runs before, so I won't get an achievement, but I think I'll get like 500 or so for getting the perfect
Difficulty is Professional, btw

It can't be a Mimic, though, right?
I got all the evidence for a Thaye: Orbs, DOTS and Writing
Mimic can't copy evidence I think.

[dry ocean]

The perfect bonus is the objectives + correct ghost reward + 50. So ~225. Slightly higher with the $30 objectives. And then x3 for pro difficulty

[dry ocean]

Nope. Mimic basically just has 4 evidence, but the journal doesn't count the orbs.

UV + Spirit Box + Freezing + Orbs

[pine delta]

mimic's orbs DONT count as evidence

it counts as a trait as far as i know

[stark dove]

weakness

[lament wing]

Oh ok, so it's safe to say it's a Thaye then.
I heard it was fast in the beginning, and I got the evidence to back it up

[pine delta]

it gets slower as it goes on so try getting a hunt and hear the footstep speed

[dry ocean]

If you've got the evidence for Thaye it's 100% Thaye

[pine delta]

^^

if you know its a thaye but you wish to learn, then wait for a hunt and still check for traits so you'd know in no evidence runs in the future

[lament wing]

Yeah, after getting the evidence the journal says it's a Thaye

I have the Voodoo Doll, I used the heart pin for a Cursed Hunt after it was a toss up between Mare, Revenant and Thaye for a while
After I heard it was pretty fast, I knew it had to be a Thaye
DOTS confirms it
Can I keep using the Doll to lower my sanity faster?

[dry ocean]

Yup

Wait, maybe not. I think the hunt pushes all the pins in?

You can try it while you're waiting

[stark dove]

5% sanity per pin pushed in, 10% for heart pin

[pine delta]

"Once the Thaye has used its ability 9 times, it will no longer be able to perform ghost events unless forced through the use of cursed possessions." - source: phas fandom

[dry ocean]

The journal will sometimes trick you with the mimic, because it doesn't count orbs as evidence. So if you put in orbs, UV and freezing it'll say it's a Hantu. But if it also has spirit box it's a mimic

[pine delta]

so what you should do is always remind yourself that orbs could be fake

if you think its a mimic, try getting mimic evidences or evidences for the ghost you think it is

or check if it changes abilities through hunts (if no evidence)

[lament wing]

Ok
Well shit, the ghost moved to the Kitchen
Can Thaye's roam far? I'm pretty sure I need it to roam pretty far so the crucifix won't stop it

[dry ocean]

I think it's only Onryo and Hantu where 3 evidence will still possibly be a mimic

[dry ocean]

All ghosts roam the same amount except Goryo. It's based on the difficulty settings.

A few have abilities that will make them teleport or move to a player

[random trellis]

I hate public lobbies cause I just got kicked from a room cause I dont listen to Hannah Montana

[pine delta]

shoulda told them you do

[lament wing]

40% Sanity, getting close

[lament wing]

How far can ghosts roam at max?

[dry ocean]

Not sure exactly

[pine delta]

typically only roams between neighbouring rooms from my experience

[dry ocean]

"Short roams have a maximum of 3 metres, and long roams have a maximum of 12 metres" The settings determine how often they do each of those

[lament wing]

Okay, I don't have Custom yet, so I'm playing on "normal" Professional

[dry ocean]

Pro is high roaming frequency, which means 30% chance for long roam

[lament wing]

Okay, it swapped rooms again, this time to the Dining area

Dang, getting perfect with a Thaye takes a while, though most of it is waiting for sanity to drop and waiting for it to age

[dry ocean]

You could have got it when it was fast and just smudged it 😛

[lament wing]

I have one more slot for video, photo and sound, I'm not sure if I should try to get them all during a hunt

Maybe I should get a salts disturbed video instead of hunting ghost video?

[pine delta]

yeah thats way easier

if you have motion sensor, thats also pretty easy

make sure you have an exit plan ready in case a hunt starts while youre trying to grab a video

[lament wing]

I have: Orbs, Sensor, Object thrown and lights switched for videos
Paranormal talking and groaning for sounds
Writing, bone, dirty water and DOTS for photos

[dry ocean]

Get doll for photo

And you can get fire extinguish for both the others

[lament wing]

If the ghost hasn't aged to its max somehow, I've got an Incense ready if I need it
and I know where the closet is
I'm playing on Tanglewood, btw

[pine delta]

burnt crucifix

[jade flint]

Who can help me complete the training? I just downloaded the game.

who is Russian

[pine delta]

#lfg-eu

[stark dove]

the training can only be done solo and is fairly simple

[jade flint]

I don't understand this training

[mystic moth]

hey um I have a question why is the servers in na constantly dropping me out mid game

saying client timeout

[pine delta]

try changing your language to russian if you cannot understand english fluently

[mystic moth]

or something

[velvet lance]

bad internet

[mystic moth]

but in other regions its fine

my internet is fine I'm pretty sure its just that one region

[velvet lance]

then the servers have an issue with you :3

[mystic moth]

I have no issues in any other region but na

[lament wing]

Considering the crucifix hasn't burned a single time yet, I think it's somewhat safe to say the Thaye is at its maximum age
Unless it's extremely shy

[velvet lance]

im assuming youre from that region so it cant be ping

thats why i figured it might be internet instability or bad internet

[lament wing]

I'm at 20-25% sanity, btw

[velvet lance]

ofc the servers might just be dieing for some reason rn idk

[mystic moth]

umm why cause I was able to play on na servers for days w/o any issues and all of a sudden this

I'm just trying to figure out whats going on

[dry ocean]

Probably an issue with that server then

[stark dove]

not sure exactly why that happens but its a common issue and happens mostly on NA servers

[velvet lance]

prolly servers being funny, internet instability, or server being f’d rn for some reason, or ping

[mystic moth]

yeah maybe

[pine delta]

you might have difficulty causing an event

[jade flint]

I sent you a photo in private messages. Can you tell me what to do next?

[velvet lance]

servers are prolly just f’d in NA rn

[lament wing]

It hasn't triggered an event as far as I know
which I think also suggests it has indeed aged to the max

[velvet lance]

“please try again later”

[pine delta]

yeah

[mystic moth]

yeah I've checked my internet its fine, I've rebooted n updated my drivers to the latest, I‘ve even uninstalled and cleared cache and reinstalled and it still does this but its just na servers which is strange but probably the servers being funny, I've heard some youtube streamers talk about this too so I guess we'll see if it gets fixed somehow

[velvet lance]

yea prolly just the servers then

[mystic moth]

yeah

its not unheard of but it is lowkey frustrating hopefully they'll fix it soon

[lament wing]

Well, it hunted twice
Got a video and sound recording of it
As I assumed, it had indeed aged to the max, it was extremely slow

Holy moly, took me an hour and 20 minutes

[foggy agate]

it's not only in NA that the servers are being funny

lemme try that again

[pine delta]

on professional 😭

theres people out here doing blood moon apoc 3 on sunny meadows in 3 hrs

[foggy agate]

yep
they are f'd up in EU SOMEtimes ?

hows that possible T_T

[mystic moth]

yeahhh I'm sure its not just in na but thats the one server that acted up the most for me today

before today everything was huncky dory

[lament wing]

Yeah, I'm good at getting consistent guesses, I'm just really slow most of the time, especially when I'm trying to get a perfect run

[foggy agate]

same for me

[pine delta]

can you record one match

[mystic moth]

nothing was wrong or anything and today its just constantly "client timeout"

[foggy agate]

btw
how do I unlock voice calls and everything ?

[mystic moth]

yeah

[foggy agate]

for me it was yesterday from like 11pm maybe to this morning

[mystic moth]

yeah but all the other servers are fine rn but just not na for some reason

[foggy agate]

hmmmmmm but what could cause that ?

[mystic moth]

idk why I really much rather play on na tho

[lament wing]

I can even screen share it, if you'd like to watch in real time LMAO

[pine delta]

sure actually

[lament wing]

Okay

I'm in the middle of a run, but it's kind of early

[foggy agate]

please TvT

[pine delta]

come dms rq

[mystic moth]

idk maybe something went on with the new update that werent compatible w the servers I''m just guessing tho

[stark dove]

must be in the server for 24 hours

[foggy agate]

thankies !

[surreal barn]

What kind of Xmas event is there this year?

[glacial stag]

should be similar to last year's

[broken oak]

do we know when its coming out?

[glacial stag]

nop

[broken oak]

okokty

[alpine sky]

It'll be a copy and paste from last year, but with new ID cards and an upgradable trophy, most likely.

[surreal barn]

Coolio thanks

[lament wing]

How fast does Hantu move?

[worthy mountain]

1.4 > 1.75 > 2.1 > 2.3 > 2.4 > 2.5 > 2.7 m/s

[lament wing]

At what temperature does it reach its max speed?
And what temperature is it at its slowest?

[worthy mountain]

• [15 ; 20] °C - 1.4
• [12 ; 15) °C - 1.75
• [9 ; 12) °C - 2.1
• [6 ; 9) °C - 2.3
• [3 ; 6) °C - 2.4
• [0 ; 3) °C - 2.5
• [-10 ; 0) °C - 2.7

[lament wing]

Okay, is there any formula for that? Or is it just set? If that makes sense

[worthy mountain]

just fixed values, just depends on current ghost room temp during a hunt

[lament wing]

Hm ok

I'm getting a lot of snow today, is it because it's December? Or is it still random?

[modern mauve]

Random

[lament wing]

Oh ok

[glass dove]

Finally got all my 50 round map badges!! Just in time for my 2nd Prestige. Let's go! Hoping to get competent and consistently survive Nightmare runs now.

[blissful gust]

got 2 mares in a row on 0 evidence 🫩

[stark vale]

How hard was sunny?

[glass dove]

Not too hard, can do it on SM Restricted

Most runs were done in 5-10 mins

Worst one was when it spawned in chapel. Took ages to get any evidence cause all the ghost wanted to do was blow out candles

[wary garden]

i found the rubber duck in bleasdale...

[lament wing]

If the ghost says it's an elderly victim, does that mean the model is that of an old lady?

[stark vale]

Smart

[modern mauve]

Nope doesn't mean anything

[zinc coyote]

[hallow iris]

I bought phasmo and tier 1 emf and thermo is annoying to use

[night lance]

Does this game have a trello board

[analog mural]

Question: can emf 5 proc during a hunt or only during grace period?

[slim whale]

-trello

[prime elk]

Kinetic Games has a Trello Board! There you can see potential upcoming updates, features, and fixes. You can find the Trello @ https://trello.com/b/9QrnqQ1j/phasmophobia.

[slim whale]

Outside of hunt

[analog mural]

Copy

[foggy agate]

generaly when it slams a door or appears trough a ghost event

[analog mural]

Ack

[lament wing]

Just got my first ever Wraith

[foggy agate]

GG !

they are dangerous as they can teleport from the ghost room to a player

[lament wing]

Yeah, I only let it hunt once
Using a Voodoo Doll, I made it hunt and after I heard it was near the salt I placed and then checked the salt only to find out it wasn't disturbed I knew it was a Wraith

[slim whale]

No. Literally random

[foggy agate]

[foggy agate]

it's the most common it's why I said "generaly" ;))

because it's how I got EMF5 each time

[lament wing]

Is this weeks challenge about how good you are at correctly guessing the ghost type based off of hunts?

[analog mural]

Another question: can all ghost switch between a standing and crawling kid ghost in different hunts?

[foggy agate]

yep

not DURING hunts but from one to another
I learnt that earlier today X))

[analog mural]

Thank you

[lament wing]

If we're talking about the model being a kid, then yes

[foggy agate]

nah don't thank me just for that

[mossy mason]

Only the female child and the female asylum patient can switch postures from hunt to hunt

[lament wing]

Is it? Considering the description

[foggy agate]

idk

hadn't tried yet

[gritty edge]

No you can get evidence you just don’t get crufix or incense and the ghost speed is 150

[lament wing]

Oh wow

Yeah I ain't doing that
Too much of a coward and I'm not that good at the game yet

[prisma laurel]

Actually there's crucifixes in the challenge

But not incense

[gritty edge]

Oh is there? I finished it a while ago and I didn’t see crucifix

my teammates must have placed them and I didn’t see

[lament wing]

Is Nightmare much harder than Professional?

[prisma laurel]

I did the challenge and seen t2 crucifixes

[lament wing]

I've been playing Professional for the most part
I'm not that good at guessing the ghost in hunts
Only obvious ones I'm relatively good at

[gritty edge]

Eh ur better off doing a custom setting for more money

[lament wing]

Not quite there yet
Got 3 levels to go

Guess I'll grind Professional for a bit more, then

[gritty edge]

If you do want to get better at the game you should play 2 evidence and look up the cheat sheet for Phasmo and learn the abilities for the ghosts and memorize them

That’s what I did and it forces you to have hunts and you can learn off the ghost behaviors

[obsidian cave]

You could also play professional but don’t get the third evidence then try and figure the ghost. Then use the third evidence to verify.

[vestal ferry]

Or. Confirm ghost via evidence.
Then look specifically for that unique identifier to see it in person with confidence.

[lime tree]

my friend just got back into phas, im excited

[faint wraith]

hey everyone, do we know when winter event starts?

[zinc coyote]

Around Christmas

[wise oyster]

could be much earlier for all we know

[modern mauve]

Doubt it's too far off honestly

[last drift]

Less than 10 days. Watch.

[modern mauve]

In 6 days, or 13 days 😉

[mossy mason]

I’m actually the grinch, I stole the Christmas event fr fr

[wise oyster]

Bourbon and I have bets on the next 2 Tuesdays

[stuck ember]

idk bourbon seems trustworthy

[wise oyster]

drinking dark whiskey, telling white lies

[stuck ember]

my guess is between 12th and the 17th

remember this

[modern mauve]

Don't underestimate the power of optimism and a bit of an educated guess

[wise oyster]

unless it's on the 16th, in which case remember my guess from a week or so ago

[stuck ember]

well, i did mention between, so even if it is the 16th, we are both right

your guess is more riskier and more rewarding than my guess

[wise oyster]

that's some sweet action

[modern mauve]

I'm sticking with the 9th

[wise oyster]

Tick tock ⏰

[modern mauve]

I am looking forward to continuing some 0/0 when I get home

If it's the 16th I get some extra time to complete

[wise oyster]

wait no my first guess was the 11th, yea I'm going back to that.

[modern mauve]

Bold choice cotton

[wise oyster]

We will get the announcement next Tuesday, and the event will start on a Thursday, just like Halloween. That will allow it to cleanly end on Jan 2.

[wise oyster]

Don't underestimate the power of optimism and a bit of an educated guess

[modern mauve]

Hmmmmm

In interested to see what the upgraded trophies look like

And I am once again asking for snowstorm weather

[spark vigil]

hi guys, i have a problem i cant get into the game, every time i start a match the game crashes does anyone know how to fix this?

sometimes it randomly lets me join a match but when i close the game and open it the next day it refuses again

[hallow iris]

dots gotta be top 3 most annoying evidence to get i hace to take a gamble betwern onryo and yokai and its a yokai and i never seen it go into dots state

A single time in the whole game

[calm atlas]

Top 3 out of 7 ain't bad

[atomic leaf]

what's 1 and 2

[pine delta]

freezing when breaker starts on

shade emf 5

[barren canyon]

is footprints also considered an ultraviolet evidence? long time returning player and i dont remember sry haha

[modern mauve]

Yes, UV footprints are now considered UV evidence

[barren canyon]

ty :)))

[zinc coyote]

[lament wing]

Nah, freezing is pretty easy to find regardless, unless it’s snowing
I’d say #1 is Spirit Box imo, I can never get it easily

[pine delta]

actually yeah that too

[lament wing]

Always gotta go around the room hundreds of times before I get Spirit Box
I’d Spirit Box #1 and DOTS #2, if we’re talking general stuff.

[shut jungle]

Does customs on 10x+ still work? Haven't played since february so idk if they stopped it, my multiplier doesn't change when I adjust the settings

[modern mauve]

Yes, make sure you don't have friendly ghost on, lose items option off or something like the setup time on

If you're struggling, choose nightmare, insanity or apoc presets and go from there

[wise oyster]

however over the mutliplier at the bottom and it'll tell you what if anything is holding it back

[modern mauve]

^

Rolling for the map; what's it gonna beeeee

eyyy Edgefield

[tardy hedge]

i might actually just use max player + ghost speed max hiding spots and 3 evidence to finish point hope

god this is miserable

[zinc coyote]

Its the best map

[proper jetty]

I need a more tech savvy person's help. I updated to the newest Nvidia Driver and now my cursor is gone in phasmo. I change settings in menu and click apply and still no cursor and if i close the game it reverts everything back to 0

[modern mauve]

Go into a contract in game, change your cursor settings in there, they should then stick

[proper jetty]

thank you sooo much! That worked. i now have a giant cursor lol

[modern mauve]

Welcome

[hallow iris]

For me 1 dots
2 emf
3 spirit box

Is annoying evidence

[indigo herald]

Hi

[indigo herald]

I did that and that fix won't work and I can't grab keys because of it or turn lights on.

[main meadow]

these are the full steps.
Go to Nvidia app, in options make sure auto optimization is off.
Start game, go into a round/house, go into game options set ALL things to do with the cursor to max.

[wooden robin]

how dare these eat the full steps >:(

Anyone here?

I am new to the game, had just started to get the game to make sense. , playing intermediate. wondering H-TF does this happen?

[zinc coyote]

What do you mean?

[junior rover]

3 min game, 3 events, and a hunt.

can I send images in this one>?

[dreamy magnet]

I’m here

[zinc coyote]

Events can tank sanity pretty fast, could be a very active ghost like an oni maybe? sounds normal

[zinc coyote]

#screenshots

[junior rover]

I lost 35%

[zinc coyote]

Any evidence?

[junior rover]

and was killed by a jaiju in 3 min 23 seconds. 3 events, and a huant.

lvl 5 emf, in the basement when I hit the breaker

one event in the kitchen, one in the basement, one in the hallway.

[verbal escarp]

Jaiju

[junior rover]

all over the house

[mild summit]

It’s a new ghost you haven’t heard about it

[junior rover]

Raiju

[zinc coyote]

Sorta sounding like oni to me

Raiju is possible too

[lilac turtle]

Am I the only one having crashing issues when opening the van camera on nells diner?

Did you confirm it was a raiju?

in the debriefing

[dreamy magnet]

Could be Jaiju

[junior rover]

I have screen shots. 3 events, and a hunt, in 3:23

[junior rover]

can't tell if trolling,

[warm spade]

I’m pretty sure thats normal ngl. Depends on the event frequency though

[zinc coyote]

Yeah, thats normal

[junior rover]

it was just a traditional set up intermediate game

Raijus can be active sometimes

Is there a specific reason the little potato hasn’t been added to any new maps recently?

Ugh...the game gave me HIGH SCHOOL

[zinc coyote]

#1 most dookie map is high school

[mild summit]

Nope love it when the ghost is in the gym

Even point hope latern room is less enjoyable

[zinc coyote]

Point hope is one of the best maps

[mild summit]

Yea ofc

I would watch a stream of point hope only if they try to get a streak on it with0/0

[atomic leaf]

point hope and camp woodwind exist

[zinc coyote]

Point hope top 5, cww dookie for evidence runs

[atomic leaf]

point hope top 5 is not a sentence I'd ever thought I would read

[zinc coyote]

[junior rover]

high school is a difficult map.
Port hope is a dumpster fire.

point hope

[stuck ember]

dumpster fire

[modern mauve]

Point Hope is an okay map, HS is just the worst map for me alongside cww

PH is not great gameplay-wise the harder your difficulty is

[tame raft]

How do I know if the ghost is faster speed or normal speed in apoc 1

[zinc coyote]

Use the cheat sheet for reference

[tame raft]

The ghost is at 150% they don’t sound the same

[zinc coyote]

You can set the speed to 150% on the cheat sheet

[tame raft]

Oh you can

[modern mauve]

Also, you don't need 150% ghost speed on apoc1

[mossy mason]

PH goated

[tame raft]

Oh really

[modern mauve]

If I wasn't in the middle of a long HS run, I'd get you a nice custom you could use

One sec

[tame raft]

How do you make sure the multiplier is still 6

[modern mauve]

Gimme a sec

[tame raft]

Aright

[modern mauve]

Go to ZN's cheat sheet, go to the custom difficulty builder and enter this code: 7374-6519-5678

Feel free to play with the settings to how you like it from there

[tame raft]

Ok thanks

[wild ivy]

Christmas update when

[odd vale]

They haven't announced a date

[wild ivy]

I want it now

[lime token]

Prolly sometime around Christmas if I had to guess

[odd vale]

Well, you'll have to wait

[tame raft]

Heyy

[tame raft]

I am trying the apoc 1 challenge today

[zinc coyote]

Apoc 1 is basically nightmare difficulty right?

[modern mauve]

Insanity

[zinc coyote]

Ah, that one

Should be easy, just gotta find a good safe spot

[modern mauve]

I'm at the point in my HS run where I'm looking for the bone, no smudge and an angry Revvy after me

Plus side, it's slow af

[lime token]

I thought apoc 1 was 5x for the longest time

[modern mauve]

(The backyard exits of HS are useful for just this moment!)

Okay, I got the bone, just need one more photo

[mossy mason]

You can’t handle the truth, it’s ok

[atomic leaf]

it’s just garbage

it may look nice but it plays like ass

[zinc coyote]

Not as bad as prison imo

[modern mauve]

Game 68, very stressful, but hopefully game 69 treats me well

[lime token]

I love the beach surrounding point hope. That map has the best outside area by far

Diner is also very cool

Grafton is just flat

[stuck ember]

you still playing solo?

[modern mauve]

Yep

[desert crown]

Would the developers ever add a feature where a ghost can copy voices?

[modern mauve]

Honestly, probably not due to minors playing the game

[stuck ember]

what does one have to do with the other?

[zinc coyote]

Privacy laws im pretty sure

[stuck ember]

ah

[zinc coyote]

Would be cool to have that though, but I get why they cant/ wont

[stuck ember]

i know lethal has some mods with voice copy and didnt quite make the connection

[desert crown]

Damn it would be such a good feature

[modern mauve]

Game 69 was a Shade, felt like I was being...ghosted

[wise oyster]

nice

[desert crown]

That was good asf

[worldly lagoon]

may someone enlighten me quickly on whats starter iteam please

should it be like all level 1 or it doesnt matter?

[wise oyster]

whatever is in the truck before anything is added. Tier doesn't matter

[cosmic belfry]

Whenever I play with a friend I’m always terrified they’re going to loop the ghost into me lol

[wise oyster]

specifically, 1 of each evidence item and 1 flashlight

[modern mauve]

Game 70, here we go

And it gives me Tanglewood ❤️

[solemn stream]

I have a faint memory of an old map where you opened the van doors and the map started as if we backed into the doorway. Is it a false memory or was it real?

[modern mauve]

OG Asylum

[solemn stream]

Thanks! Great to know I wasn’t imagining it 😅

[zinc coyote]

Bring back asylum

[worldly lagoon]

thanks

[modern mauve]

Nice Demon

I'm now in "oh shit, it's getting real" territory

[wise oyster]

what are the new settings?

[modern mauve]

Apoc settings, with sprint, normal player speed and ghost events to medium

81-90 will be Apoc with normal player speed and events to medium or hunts to medium

[dire vessel]

wait do we have ghost orbs

[modern mauve]

Some interesting stats

• I've not seen a single Oni
• Most seen ghost is a Raiju (at 8), followed by Demon and Thaye (at 6 each)
• Most played map is tied between Bleasdale and Sunny Meadows Restricted, (at 8 each), followed by Tanglewood
• Least Played map is a three-way tie between Prison, Edgefield and Grafton
• I've had Blood Moon twice

[dreamy magnet]

How u not see oni but you’ve played since the early days

[modern mauve]

I'm talking specifically about the challenge I'm currently doing

[dreamy magnet]

Ohhhhhh

[dreamy magnet]

Ohh ur doing random map challenge on apoc

[modern mauve]

Not exactly, 100 perfect games with ascending difficulty

each 10 games means a difficulty increase

[tame raft]

How many breaker locations are in sunny meadows

[modern mauve]

5

Basement Hallway, Foyer, Utility room, courtyard, boiler room

[dreamy magnet]

Do yu start over if u died or keep going and wat difficulty u on now?

[tame raft]

For apoc

[modern mauve]

If I mess up, (i.e. don't get perfect game or die), then go back to the beginning - but I've given myself 1 re-do per 10 games

[modern mauve]

Number of breaker spots doesn't change

[tame raft]

Oh ok thanks

too crazy for me

You buy items in "shop" that shows a basket, and if you want to add those items you go to quick loadouts and + sign to add or - to remove

[quiet scarab]

guys i'm running into an issue in single player. the audio outside the house and in basements doesn't work when i am on single player the issue is in the basement part

[cinder heart]

Heeeeyyyyy
If I have a Moroi on zero evidence, can I still get it's guaranteed spirit box?

[quiet scarab]

i can't seem to tbe able to use it

[quiet scarab]

No

on 0 evidance a 0 sanity a moroi is fast all time. u can check it's speed if its fast or not.
if it's fast hit it with smudge and see if it stays affected for long enough.

[tribal flame]

7.5 seconds instead of normal 5 i think

[quiet scarab]

if it stays smudged for only 5 then it's a thaye probably. or a mimic mimicing a thaye. so check for ghost orbs or test another hunt to see if the behavior changes

[sturdy ether]

Can we see ghost orbs on 0 evidence?

[tribal flame]

Unless i first 1 min

[tribal flame]

Yes

[dry ocean]

Only if it's a mimic

[quiet scarab]

only mimic gives orbs in 0 evidance

cause it's the mimic's "Fake" ghost orbs

[vocal spindle]

guys i got a raiju that had speed without anything turned on, whats yalls opinion

[sturdy ether]

Ohh then its super easy to identify mimic on 0 evidence

[limpid fable]

Yes there’s loads more that are really easy to spot too like a hantu

[tribal flame]

Shade sort of

[dry ocean]

Something was turned on, or LOS speed up, or you're mistaken

[limpid fable]

Depends how it’s feeling 🤣

[tribal flame]

Shade cant not blow out fire light if in room with you so you can rule it easily

[quiet scarab]

bloodmoon maybe.

[sturdy ether]

Guys whats ur all opinion neil's diner map

[quiet scarab]

almost everything is easy to define. Demon might be the hardest and Yurei if it spawns in rooms with no doors

[sturdy ether]

Have u guys tried that map

[tribal flame]

Good

[quiet scarab]

very good map actually my favorite map rn

[tribal flame]

Like much of woodwind

[dry ocean]

Only complaint is too many light switches

[sturdy ether]

Samee🤣

Except that overall map is pretyy good i enjoyed playing on it

[tribal flame]

Very similar diner where I live

[sturdy ether]

Lmao

[runic harbor]

the hunt begins seems fun
kind of like phasmo BUT only player ghost mode is available

[tribal flame]

Like your the ghost?

[sturdy ether]

That sounds interesting

[runic harbor]

1 - 4 co op vs one (ghost)

[tribal flame]

Ok

[sturdy ether]

Is it available on console

Ps5

[runic harbor]

ill check shortly

[zinc coyote]

[runic harbor]

basically like phasmo but you also have to banish the ghost and the ghost is a player
also theres only 5 evidence types

[sturdy ether]

I think its not available

I checked it

Its a paid game right?

[quiet scarab]

what was the cd per candle for a ghost ?

[dry ocean]

I don't think there's a cooldown per candle. Just that there's 30 seconds after it's lit that they won't blow it out unless onryo ability

[quiet scarab]

a mare just blew it in less than 10s thats why i'm asking

[dry ocean]

Hrm, dunno. Looking at the wiki the 30s is only the first time it's lit, but subsequent times are 20-80 seconds. Still should be more than 10 seconds. Though T1 + T2 can go out on their own I think, but I dunno if there's a set time for that.

[barren warren]

I think the candles do get shorter overtime

[plain hazel]

Without smudge, how long do you have until the ghost can hunt again? I think demon is like 20s, but what about every other ghost?

[dry ocean]

25s for other ghosts

[barren canyon]

Can any1 look into the screenshots channel for me
like hello? what is this

[barren warren]

Easter egg

[barren canyon]

haha pretty cool
is there smth to do to trigger it or just a % chance basis

[tame raft]

What should I change I just changed ghost speed to 100%

For apoc 1

[stark dove]

first light is 30s, 2nd light and all lights after that is 20-80 seconds (ghost picks a random time to attempt the blow out)

[barren canyon]

how do u get that purple calling card with like purple lines moving in it

[glacial stag]

pardon?

[barren canyon]

i can show in screenshot room

[fading jackal]

probably ghost in the machine.

[barren canyon]

yeah

[glacial stag]

ah

u gotta do the easter egg

[barren canyon]

oh the skull

[fading jackal]

in nells diner.

[glacial stag]

start with the safe in the manager's office on nell's diner

[barren canyon]

oki

[fading jackal]

so when's the christmas stuff hitting?

[lime token]

Prolly near Christmas if I had to guess

[zinc coyote]

[barren canyon]

this game came a long way
i have 112 hours in it, but i remember playing day 1 and its so different in a good way

[prisma laurel]

Yo geobeer I found a cool guide you might like on steam

[stuck ember]

every ghost tonight had ghost writing

[barren canyon]

must have been the rare occasion when they dont run out of Ink

[stuck ember]

also witnessed the 6 fingers for the first time, felt cute might delete later

[fading jackal]

the obake ability vs. the other obake ability be like:

[stuck ember]

u sendin somethin?

[fading jackal]

nope. that's just how the obake works.

it's secondary ability is that it can shorten the lifespan of fingerprints.

[stuck ember]

ah

[fading jackal]

"might delete later"

[stuck ember]

lmao didnt realize

[quiet scarab]

do all ghosts say "i'm watching you" or only stalking ghosts ?

[fading jackal]

yeah. you can actually get an obake to put a fingerprint on something in a distant room with fingerprint time set to infinite, leave the game on for a few hours, and the fingerprint will actually disappear because the infinite setting just sets the time to like 999999 or something.

[stuck ember]

i think thats just some piece of recorded voicelines every ghost can do

i may be wrong tho

[stark dove]

every ghost can

the only special audio you need to listen for is deogen breathing/growling and banshee screaming

[quiet scarab]

i have never detected a banshee scream tbh.

[stuck ember]

and the close to bussin one

[quiet scarab]

even thought i use para mic a lot

[stark dove]

[quiet scarab]

is the kid's laugh "sounds like a little girl laugh" an easter egg ? cause that shit scared the living hell out of me xD

[stuck ember]

the only joke i get is the

[lime token]

Yurei speed

[fading jackal]

god. that reminds me. the eggs in nell's diner probably have less polygons than the eggs from ocarina of time. on the n64.

[stuck ember]

yeah u lost me dude

[fading jackal]

take a look at them. they are JAGGED.

spiked eggs. and not in the good way.

[wise oyster]

I'm convinced that has something to do with the new character models coming

[stuck ember]

ou ive seen the eggs, just dont grt the refference

[wise oyster]

that they'll make sense when we see new hands holding them.

[fading jackal]

it's not a reference. it's an observation.

because as they say
i'm on observation duty.
😎

[lime token]

I wouldn't mind them making the ghosts footsteps more audible on the new surface

[dry ocean]

Those still prolly had more than the low poly grapes from FFXIV 😛

[lime token]

Really quiet at times

[barren canyon]

outsie of the lobby, is it just me or does the moon have half an eye open and its smiling?

[wise oyster]

sounds are a mess throughout the game

[fading jackal]

give the ghosts the footsteps from the concrete outside the diner. CLOMP CLOMP CLOMP

[stuck ember]

sm padded room footsteps

[lime token]

They are just basic concrete footsteps iirc

The ones you'd hear in tangle garage for examplw

[fading jackal]

kinda disappointed that the padded rooms can't be ghost rooms.

[lime token]

0 throwables

[stoic zealot]

isn't that the whole point of a padded room to not die in it tho

other than like starvation ig

[stuck ember]

you could die in a living room, why not a padded room

[stoic zealot]

because you can't jump off the couch

[fading jackal]

i mean. the bones are literally where the ghost died. if the weegee board is to be believed.

[stuck ember]

wedgie board

wa weg board

real talk if kinetic makes a oujia board for merch, i'd be super tempted to get it. i was always told to be afraid of those things. i want one just because of that.

[lime token]

I want tarot playing cards

[fading jackal]

idk if that would work. a standard tarot deck has 21 cards.

technically 42 if you count them twice due to inverted meanings.

enclave hanged man

[quiet scarab]

does the paramic work even if i throw it on the floor ?

[fading jackal]

you mean for the objective? idk. i think it'd have to be facing the ghost, so that'd be difficult. can't say i've ever gotten the objective without holding it though.

[quiet scarab]

i'm getting random audio jump scares and i later noticed the paramic working on the floor

[south violet]

I always forget cursed objects are a thing. I don't think I've interacted with one outside of multiplayer

[fading jackal]

...those sound like events.

[odd vale]

I usually use them when I play nightmare if I need a hunt to help decide/eliminate ghosts

okay so we were on tanglewood on amateur. We got dots in the living room, 9degrees, closed books, and the ghost spawning from there multiple times. after 10 minutes of waiting for more evidence we check the laundry room and it was freezing temps in there but not the lving room. Is this a bug or is it possible for it to 'glitch' and be in two rooms

[fading jackal]

ghosts can roam from their room. unless they're goryo.

[quiet scarab]

not events. something like a little girl laughing. for like 2 seconds

[dry ocean]

If they interact with a toy it does that

[main meadow]

Ghosts are not stuck in one room they roam as they roam they lower temperature in the rooms they travel to.

[sly jolt]

Ghosts can change favorite rooms. Room temps are cooled based on ghost presence. Ghosts spawn position is based on where it was roaming when it initiated the hunt.

[fading jackal]

were you using a sound recorder? if so, it gets the same sounds as a paramic. if not, sounds like a bug.

[tribal flame]

Last I knew goryos could roam not change favorite room

[dry ocean]

They can't change favourite room on amateur

[rain sand]

but give evidence in multiple rooms? I never had that happen before

[fading jackal]

they can't far roam. they barely set foot outside their room anymore.

[sly jolt]

yes as long as its in range it doesnt have to be IN the room

[dry ocean]

Definitely can give evidence in other rooms. Just not ghost orbs

[tribal flame]

Ah I have not played recently

[rain sand]

the tv in the living room is in range of the laundry room?!?!?!

[sly jolt]

yes

[main meadow]

All evidence can be found outside the ghost room as the ghost wanders, only orbs are stuck to the favorite room until the ghost officially changed rooms

[sly jolt]

it can easily roam and interact with the tv

[runic harbor]

guys what is considered "beating" the game (besides completionist)

[prisma laurel]

That makes sense because it's usually forgets about it till it changes rooms

[dry ocean]

And if it's one of the ghosts that will roam/teleport to a player and you're all in the living room it's more likely to happen

[fading jackal]

technically it's the remote. you can put the remote in the ghost room, wherever it is, and if the ghost interacts with it (not throw, interact) it can turn the TV on.

[prisma laurel]

🤔

[rain sand]

wow that is great to know. I am surprised it took this long for me to get evidence from the wrong room

[austere cobalt]

Me provoking the ghost by insulting it

[rain sand]

no we had the emf reader, book, spirit box, and dots by the tv and got the evidence from that area

[fading jackal]

i guess if you wanted, you could reach prestige 20? and if that's not enough, proceed to reach level 9999? that'd take years though.

[runic harbor]

i feel like thats post-game lol (after "beating" the game)

Having a heart attack and getting killed by the ghost IRL

[sly jolt]

I always put dots in 2 places, one IN the room, and one just OUTSIDE the room. Ghosts are more likely to appear on dots while in the "roaming state"

[lime token]

I suppose p20 lvl 80 w/ all achievements is kinda the end

[prisma laurel]

🤑

[fading jackal]

oh. well yeah, the ghost can roam to different rooms and give evidence in them, even if it's not their favorite. ghost orbs being the exception, they'll only show up in the ghost's favorite room. freezing depends on how long the ghost was in the room, so it's usually only in it's favorite.

[last drift]

Passing your knowledge down in phas-chat to newbies

[lime token]

Which in that case I've "completed" phas twice

[tribal flame]

I am eternally a noob😭

[prisma laurel]

That's very false

[runic harbor]

they should add a new thingy of achievements for
identify [ghost type] in the apocalypse 3 challenge (unneeded for completionist though namecard for doing 24/24 types)

[sly jolt]

honestly being a "noob" was the funnest part of the experience

[rain sand]

so if it isn't orbs/freezing temps and you dont have a mirror how do you know the room for sure?

[fading jackal]

i guess technically i've "beaten" phas. i don't really care though, it's a comfort game for me. among my favorites such as super metroid and minecraft really.

[lime token]

I feel like apoc should require a perfect game, so fecking cheesable

[prisma laurel]

Make another apoc that require perfect game

👀

[lime token]

Hmm I suppose

[runic harbor]

apoc 4 when for postgame content

[prisma laurel]

Bud is listening to the intern 🤑

W chat

[fading jackal]

temperature. if a ghost doesn't have freezing or is hiding it, the coldest a room can get is 1c. all the rest of the rooms will be ambient temperature, or a little below due to roaming. but really, you only need to know the ghost's general area anyway.

[wooden void]

um i just joined a multiplayer game and i have a bunch of badges i dont have unlocked??

[runic harbor]

i feel like more things (besides the already-known character cosmetics) should be added for prestiging, some new and fun content
but what?

[lime token]

I need to hop on crapwind, 1500 ain't gonna reach itself 🔥

[tribal flame]

Lobby owner does

[wooden void]

i am the lobby owner

i DONT have some of these badges lmfao

[fading jackal]

that game has a cheater in it.

This guy named geobeer back to doing 14.47x xp

how long does it take for the average player to start grinding and complete apoc 3?

[lime token]

Depends

[runic harbor]

estimate in hours

[prisma laurel]

One year apoc 3 game 🤑

[wooden void]

do i have to restart the lobby?

[lime token]

Game crashes as your heading to van

[tribal flame]

Kick them?

[runic harbor]

top 3 apoc 3 ghosts?

[tribal flame]

[fading jackal]

kick and block them. if you can't kick them, then block them and restart the loby.

[lime token]

Revvy

[fading jackal]

fuck you mean revvy, ain't no way a noob is surviving a pic with a rev in apoc3 🤣

[lime token]

T2 smudge is a free photo lol

Rev "Rapidly Exiting Velocity Change"

[fading jackal]

oni makes sense tho, fr.

Revenant is such an easy ghost

3 apocs done with that ghost

[tribal flame]

0 apocs done with any ghost 0/2

[fading jackal]

fuck wraiths in apoc. just, right up their ethereal ass.

[prisma laurel]

Revenant is the only ghost I have gotten from p1 to p20

Revenant staying with me 🥲

I glitched rev escape badge somehow

i wonder if grafton is getting a makeover for christmas? bleasdale too. if so, i'll wait on grinding my farmhouse badge and just combine it with the christmas grind.

[prisma laurel]

Camp Crystal Lake

[tribal flame]

I went to a camp Tanglewood once

[lime token]

I have lighthouse keeper and sunny survival badges but the leaflets still aren't 50/50 which kinda annoys me

[fading jackal]

that's weird.

[tribal flame]

50/50?

[lime token]

(I'd done them on my prev savefile)

[tender igloo]

what are you guys talking about

[tribal flame]

Oh im stupid

[runic harbor]

does someone have a livesplit thingy for phas

[fading jackal]

i'm still wondering why the ghosts forgot how to count.

[lime token]

You can download livesplit from the website? Works wonders for me, even though I only use it for shade tests w/ firelights lol

[runic harbor]

no like the thing where it automatically splits

[lime token]

I don't have that no

[fading jackal]

i don't think that works with phas because it'd have to read game data, and i don't think kinetic likes that.

can always use a hotkey for it though.

[lime token]

An autosplitter for phas would be odd though

[fading jackal]

works great as a smudge timer.

it would. what would it be splitting?

[lime token]

Ig if your doing like all maps speedrun

[prisma laurel]

Speedrun?

Like the weekly challenge?

[lime token]

As in the weekly?

Jinx

[fading jackal]

still can't believe someone did phas runs at GDQ.

this game is so RNG, i don't think it's a good speed game at all.

[lime token]

Iconic 37 second tangle though

[humble marsh]

So I just realized this but all of my trophies are GONE. I don’t know if this is a bug because i loaded in and out of the game and they still aren’t there. My cursed items are but my trophies aren’t… (I’m a console player.)

[tacit pivot]

Do you use "quick resume" on phas?

[odd vale]

Were you checking from single player?

🤨

[zinc coyote]

If you're in a multi player match it'll show what the host has, not you

[humble marsh]

I’m currently in singleplayer, sorry for not responding currently in a match

[zinc coyote]

Did you reset the game?

Try that if you havent. If you still dont have them, I'd suggest messaging @violet nova

[runic harbor]

down to "the funny five" on nm

[daring perch]

i tried 0 sanity on phasmophobia for the first time, we got a myling and it hunted 3 times in a row

[blissful gust]

mylings don’t play 😭

[daring perch]

i could tell it was a myling because other ghosts will be singing or talking during the hunts

[blissful gust]

they’re a pretty cool ghost imo kinda tricky tho

[dry ocean]

Valid

[deep acorn]

erm

[gloomy pecan]

I need help- I've just downloaded phas onto my laptop through Steam. Opened it and everything is Black, white and red ...

Thank you

[alpine sky]

Mylings can still do that, it's the footstep sounds that's quieter

[manic barn]

What ghost can turn the generator on, on camp woodwind??

[main meadow]

• All ghosts can turn the breakers on except for the Hantu
• All ghosts can turn breakers off except for the Jinn (expection overloading the breaker with too many lights)
• All ghosts can turn lights on except for the Mare
• All ghosts can turn lights off
• All ghosts can fully close/open a door. The Yurei MUST do this they can not do a partial.

[manic barn]

Do the stove things count as lights on that map?

[distant shale]

if the ghost throws the ghost writing book does that guarantee it isnt an evidence or is there still a chance?

[last drift]

No

[last drift]

Depends. In 3 evidence, it's not a ghost writing ghost.

In 2 1 or 0, it could still be a ghost writing, but hiding that evidence

[distant shale]

Im on professional

so its not a writing ghost

[last drift]

It will not write in that book at all, exactly. Check ro make sure it hasn't already be written in

Because it will still throw that book.If it's already been written.

[distant shale]

no writing

[last drift]

Yup elkmate all ghost writing ghosts

Good job investigator!

[distant shale]

so its a yokai with no orbs

or

a phantom with no ultra after 9 salt piles and a light switch check

[last drift]

Orbs will either be in the ghost room or they won't. Should be pretty easy to eliminate

[distant shale]

Ive had 1 or even 2 yokai this month not show orbs until a room switch

maybe its a bug

I got hunted for a photo but the ghost didnt even show in it to confirm phantom or not

what is this ghost

Died cause it wouldnt fucking switch to my incense, just got stuck on camera despite hitting switch item several times

yokai with no ghost orbs

never switched rooms

rip

[tacit pivot]

@limpid fable

[limpid fable]

Yes lad

[tacit pivot]

nothing 😃

[limpid fable]

Oh cheers 🤣

[distant shale]

Is yokai bugged or something (no ghost orbs on 3 evidence)?

Also does anyone else get a glitch where items dont swap?

[tacit pivot]

Are you taking a photo then trying to swap?

[distant shale]

yes, does it actually take like 5 seconds?

[tacit pivot]

Depends on the tier because the photo needs to be fully like taken and "printed" for it to swap

Tier 3 being the shortest time thats why tier 1 and 2 are god awful

[distant shale]

hm I think 3 but it might be 2

[tacit pivot]

3 still takes around 2 seconds after the photo is done to swap i think

Dont quote me on 2 seconds but theres a delay for sure

[tacit pivot]

Probably just a regular phasmo moment

[distant shale]

tier 3

[tacit pivot]

Yeah tier 3 has a 1 second delay before switching items

[last drift]

For camera, take photo then yeet

Don't swap. Drop.

Drop swap and roll

[distant shale]

@last drift Ill try that then ty fam

[last drift]

I think he figured it out lol 🙂

[pulsar ether]

So uhm guys.... I just found the potato on Tanglewood

[wintry yew]

yeah when i first started playing there was a potato is that like rare

[pulsar ether]

I have never even heard of it we just found it naturally cuz I hid the paw and my wife was looking for it

The sound it makes when you drop it had me rolling LOL

[torpid echo]

?av

[pulsar ether]

Check #videos If thats what you're asking I just posted a small clip when I throw it and you can hear the audio when it hits the counter. We looked up why its in game.

[hallow iris]

How to get dots easily

[pulsar ether]

Use a dots sensor

[hallow iris]

I once got a yokai that never shows dot at all

[glacial stag]

u gotta ask nicely

thats how i get goryos to show themselves on dots when im in the van checking for dots

[hallow iris]

Does turning off lights increase the chance of dots

[glacial stag]

no

[pulsar ether]

Helps me see them sometimes but does not have anything to do with the chance

[hallow iris]

How so i even use emf tier 1 it always lead me farther than the ghost room

I heard an interaction and none of the nearby rooms is the ghost room

[glacial stag]

emf readings dont necessarily lead u to the ghost room

[willow rain]

Chat is it true that saying the ghost's name 100 times gets interactions

[glacial stag]

they just indicate that the ghost is nearby currently interacting with stuff

[glacial stag]

no

[hallow iris]

How long do ghost usually roam

[glacial stag]

the furtherest a ghost can roam from its current position in one go is about 12m

[hallow iris]

When ever im in the ghost room it never interacts or vey rarely give emf even when i turn off lights
