phasmo-chat

[lavish gazelle]

fire

[merry yacht]

The lobby feels so empty without the christmas tree now

[ebon flicker]

Real

[sour ore]

I got Phasmo working on Bazzite. Now I can resume playing. I am without VR for a bit, but that’s fine for now

[unborn hollow]

besides hunt breath, how can you check for hantu

[last drift]

Fast in cold rooms

Slower in not cold rooms

Doesn't have LOS build-up

[unborn hollow]

alrighty

does it have any behavior/things it cant do

like jinn breaker or mare lights

[last drift]

Cant turn on breaker

[unborn hollow]

i rarely get any ghost to do that anyway rip

[last drift]

Turns it off 2x as much as other ghosts

[unborn hollow]

ah ok it hasnt been doing that much

[fleet onyx]

Is it normal for a hunt to last over 2 minutes?

[lime holly]

no but its possible

[fleet onyx]

Okay

[main meadow]

Cursed multi kill

One of my favorite things to do is set multi kill on and laugh as friends notice

[lime holly]

iirc
5s grace period (+5s)
large map, Hunt duration high (60s)
Cursed hunt (+20s)
3 deaths (+3x20s)
Total hunt duration:
145s or 2 minutes 25 seconds straight of hunting and thats longest possible single hunt duration

maybe some edge cases can extend it like reviving a dead player then they die again

[fleet onyx]

The hunt had lasted for 6

Minutes

[lime holly]

No single hunt can last 6 minutes

It definitely ended at some point then started another one

[fleet onyx]

Well it has-

[main meadow]

If you are going by lights flashing that's a bug check door.

[fleet onyx]

Ivve been folowing it all the time now

[lime holly]

Record a video of it

[tame bronze]

somebody elses ID cards/badges gone? never had this bug before

[odd vale]

Try reloading into a single player lobby.

[fleet onyx]

Ok it stoped right now thanks guys

[tame bronze]

I'll try that, thanks

[calm ocean]

thx

[fiery thunder]

bro i keep dying bc idk where ghost spawns in a hunt is it a guess or u can tell with hearbeats or sumthing

[lime holly]

heartbeat yes but also the ghost sound during hunt will be louder if ur closer to it

[worn glade]

"this is the last room, this gotta be the ghost room"
.> demon spawns right on top of me
"yup, this is the ghost room"

[forest plaza]

I got a fun little game we can play together. Hit me with a reason why for your answer to make it interesting as well. If the ghosts had a song that would be their favorite, what song would it be? I'll go first: Mare's favorite song would be Nightmare by Avenged Sevenfold. The Mare is a ghost that is believed to sit on the chest of its victims that creates hallucinations in dreams hence the term "Nightmare". It would definitely headbang to a song about a dark hellish narrative.

[mossy mason]

Obambo would constantly swap favorite songs
Not sure what songs tbh

[forest plaza]

I got one: Hot n Cold by Katy Perry because it constantly changes moods

[muted wedge]

Why did the uv dissapear

[unborn hollow]

activity probably happened awhile ago

uv faded

[muted wedge]

Nope it faded after 10 seec

[unborn hollow]

possible i think

[regal swift]

Can someone explain Gallu to me?

[lime holly]

a brief one or a full explanation?

[unborn hollow]

steps in 1 salt = becomes mad(faster), will skip over other salts

[lime holly]

its very nuanced ghost lol

3 back to back ghost events pre tarot cards

[zinc coyote]

[unborn hollow]

exactly

[fair violet]

is there anywhere to submit ideas for updates or something

[lime holly]

sadly not.

[fair violet]

🙁

[lime holly]

once a blue moon they open a feedback channel here

[fair violet]

i have a great idea for sound sensors to make them useful or even have them record sound media but ill probably forget before they open again

[regal swift]

How do you film the ghost because I did it like 2 times with my friends and it never works

[unborn hollow]

you gotta hold the uv button

[bronze lantern]

Hold Right mouse/ use button

[rigid cave]

Hey, I’ve been having a issue with my mic in phas, my mic shows that it’s on but yet no one is able to here me. I’m on ps5 and I can’t seem to find the issue. Can someone help or have anyone had this issue before?

[bronze lantern]

Inmate are special badge thus only prestige(normal) badge and special(includes event)badge only

[onyx obsidian]

Been having same issue on PC. Can't get anyone in lobby to hear me but in game it's fine.

[fervent cobalt]

Phas always has audio glitches..

[gusty night]

can someone tell me if emf 2 on a breaker box is a reliable way to confirm jinn? my buddy said it was but we got twins lol

[zinc coyote]

Did the breaker turn off?

[gusty night]

no but he said if you throw emf on breaker and get 2 it confirms jinn??

[elder lagoon]

can the bone spawn in an individual cell on prison?

[zinc coyote]

If I remember correctly ghosts can touch the breaker door, leaving emf. But I could be wrong on that

[lime holly]

yes ghosts can do that

[zinc coyote]

Figured, wasn't sure tho

[elder lagoon]

i just use text chat, the ingame chat doesnt work for me or my friend for some reason

[gusty night]

interesting thats cool

do you know if when they touch the breaker giving emf it has to turn off?

[strong swan]

Is there a lil mismatch going between Ps5 and pc/xbox? can’t cross play

[elder lagoon]

🐺

[unborn hollow]

how common are banshee screams?

[frank arrow]

Hey everyone, Ive been playing phasmophobia on Xbox for about a week or so. Just leveled to 20 yesterday. When I go to multiplayer I'm only seeing EU servers even though crossplay and NA is selected. Any advice?

[worn schooner]

i have problem: my game constantly crashes in online mode. What can i do about it?

[fiery thunder]

guys for the moneybag id card i spent 100k i restarted my game but didnt get it

[unborn hollow]

[fiery thunder]

[unborn hollow]

idk i dont have id cards

[fiery thunder]

is the weekly challenge with 2 evidences?

[main meadow]

No each wish once and wish for anything wish will not pick the used ones as random

[main meadow]

Pins of the channel has all the info looks like no evidence change is mentioned so 3

[unborn hollow]

ah

[south violet]

Does anyone know what the "None" option for the voice recognition mode setting does? Does it just disable the spirit box and other similar objects entirely?

[silent sparrow]

Hey guys so, I'm a bit stuck on this golden tier apoc challenge. I've got a fast ghost, faster than the 150%, that's laughing alot over parabolic. I'm thinking it might be a Thaye, but I'm not sure, not sure if younger thayes laugh alot. I also cannot get it to come to my area I want it too, to get the picture and video I need for my objectives. Do you guys have any advice on how to get it to come forward?

I keep using my nightvision and parabolic on, and it still refuses to walk forward. I was able to track it's BPM because of how timid it was being

[fallow crystal]

thank you very much it worked have a nice day

[lime holly]

Id recommend using the cheat sheet and listening to the sounds of the ghost speeds at 150% and compare it to what you hear ingame

[main meadow]

Cheat sheet

[silent sparrow]

Yeah. That's what I've been doing, and I've narrowed it down to 4 ghosts, but it's out in the like courtyard or around, and refuses to walk forward.

Actually three, because I really don't think it's a mimic

So that was my main thing here was like, basically asking if anyone had any tips for pulling it towards the foyer

[odd vale]

Probably some adjustments to aspect ration in video settings but I’d head to troubleshooting and then tech support at the portal

[dusty gate]

already fixed it. im sorry for bothering you guys

[silent sparrow]

I thought I was pretty good at no evidence runs for the most part, but I didn't realize how much I relied on crouch sprinting LMAO

[rigid cave]

👍🏽

[silent sparrow]

So, is there a higher radius for voice than electronic attraction?

[stark dove]

9m for voice and global radio
7.5m for electronics
2.5m detection on everything for yokai

[atomic leaf]

the fact that malfunction and detection range isn't the same genuinely bothers me

[silent sparrow]

So if I'm trying to attract a ghost to the foyer of the mental asylum, it might best to turn on my voice chat

Kinda need to attract this mfer to my salt area so I can have enough time to video it and run

[wise oyster]

I like it, it gives you a bit of a warning before the ghost can sense you

But I understand how you'd want it more definitive for stuff like Yokai testing

[dusty cedar]

👍

[vast crown]

local voice is actually 7.5m vs 9m radio (from the cheat sheet map explorer)

i always wondered why it felt like the radio was more reliable for yokai testing

[fair violet]

is it possible for a shade to fully close a door twice?

[vast crown]

yeah

any ghost can

since chronicle update, it's weird lol

[silent sparrow]

I wish I had done this damn apocalypse achievement before chronicle

Tryna perfect the game, because it was next on the list, and this challenge IS NOT making it easier

[fair violet]

i thought only yuris could

ive never had a ghost other than that one fully close a door before

[atomic leaf]

yeah that's the only reason I actually care LOL

I feel like it will confuse people with yokai if they don't really know the ranges

[vast crown]

yeah that was before chronicle, now all ghosts can slam doors, but yurei's is still special in that the door swinging animation when it happens is way slower than all the other ghosts.

also the yurei MUST fully open or close a door. if a door is touched and it only moves a few inches, not a yurei

[fair violet]

the shade didnt slam it, it slowly closed i watched it

[fleet valley]

yall who wanna larp phas with me?

[paper anchor]

What is the smallest medium map or least annoying (no point hope)

[fair frost]

I hate shades, I've been trying to get it to hunt for over 30 minutes

[wise oyster]

drop your sanity and stand outstide its room

[fair frost]

I have a 30% sanity right

[wise oyster]

the lower it is, the better odds are of it hunting,

[fair frost]

and I was standing outside its room for more than half the time I've been waiting

[wise oyster]

that goes for any ghost

[fair frost]

i really just need to prevent it from hunting with a cruci for more money

[fair violet]

if you know its a shade just get out and start a new match, no point waiting forever for it to hunt for extra money

[fair frost]

there is a point, I was able to get not only an optional objective done as well as get 5 pictures and an extra video as well

i got nearly $1000 for that

that's total for the investigation

[fair violet]

and in that time you could have gotten more from other investigations (i think)

main point is why waste that much time when you could be doing more investigations

[pale badge]

How can you play phas on beta

[odd vale]

It’s a closed group

[pale badge]

Aw dang it

[spark vigil]

did the game get harder recently? like did ghost speed change or something? i have been struggling to figure out the ghosts the last couple days

[cosmic narwhal]

Hello everyone. Where can I get notifications about the short-term badges added to the game? Where are they shared? How do you find out about them?

[vast crown]

short term ones will only ever be event badges, halloween, christmas, and easter every year

[vast crown]

nope nothing like that

[lime holly]

twitch drop badges too

[cosmic narwhal]

Alright, smart people. I'm just wondering where these announcements are made. For example, Twitch drops can be surprise and unplanned.

[spark vigil]

really?? we just had the twins and its speed was over 1.9 like around 2.3 or 2.4 we didn’t expect it to be twins at all

[lime holly]

fast twins base speed at 100 ghost speed is 1.9

[odd vale]

#game-announcements #discord-announcements an #change-log would be the main channels I’d follow for them

[lime holly]

^ plus following phas content creators or kg partners u basically wont ever be unaware of one

[spark vigil]

yeah and it was actually the twins

[lime holly]

many variables could cause it to speedup to 2.3/2.4. it could also be user error

[cosmic narwhal]

Who is the content creator you follow who posts updates on every badge?

[lime holly]

flashforce, nukadave are my main ones i follow and watch to get the twitch drops

[vast crown]

either got LOS for a bit or you have it on 150% ghost speed

[lime holly]

also possibility of blood moon or if played during christmas event on a Christmas map, and failed the list that makes it faster

or user error/instrumental error in how u obtained it was going at 2.3/2.4. really theres just many variables to account for and without video evidence only speculations can be made

[quiet bramble]

anyone else unable to record motion sensors?

[vast crown]

try crouching sometimes that helps

[quiet bramble]

I was crouched; it didn't even show the brackets meaning it was recordable

[zinc tulip]

I keep camera in next slot and replace it until it shows. Have to be quick though. Hate it when it happens

[dusk tapir]

Brah I got demon on third try farming demon slayed trophy and I didn't even get the achievement-

[vast crown]

yeah it wont use its ability every time unfortunately

[dusk tapir]

It was above 70% sanity so I'd assume it would have to

[vast crown]

ideally yea, might have just gotten lucky and lost just enough sanity

[dusk tapir]

Pretty sure I had sanity drain off or whatever

Idk it's whatever tho

[lyric drum]

I got hunted the second i entered the ghost room what ghost is it?

[vast crown]

depends on what your sanity was, could be demon or a couple others like yokai

[lyric drum]

my sanity was like around 80

[dusk tapir]

Demon or thaye probs

[lyric drum]

mimic 🙏 😭

[dusk tapir]

Brah

[agile pond]

I hate the mimic

I have beef with it

[somber orchid]

hello

[blissful gust]

i watch lisaschillin 🙏🏽

[paper anchor]

Smallest medium map? (excluding point hope)

[atomic leaf]

bleasdale

[lime token]

Prolly bleasdale

[zinc coyote]

Prison

[lime token]

Or maple

[paper anchor]

How many tanglewoods is it

[atomic leaf]

like 3

[lime token]

It'd be way more than 3 no?

[paper anchor]

is it worth doing medium maps?

[blissful gust]

sunny meadows

[atomic leaf]

maybe like 4 or 5

[brazen python]

How many hours until yall got the demon achievement (the one where u get killed almost instantly)

[vast crown]

sunny meadows best map

[blissful gust]

unironically it is my favorite map especially with 2 or more ppl

[lime token]

I got it when I was like xx-800 so quite a while lol

[brazen python]

Dam it took me 5 hours

[atomic leaf]

I farmed for it once achievements came out

[vast crown]

you get it when you get it

[brazen python]

I was lucky to get it pretty quick

[atomic leaf]

took me 20 mins I think

[lime token]

That achievement took me like 6 months

[kind prairie]

Jemand für phasmo da?

[wise oyster]

#lfg-eu

[lime token]

Just recently managed to get ethernet and vr works like a charm, might do some phas gaming

[lilac wave]

anyone have any idea for when the tanglewood rework is coming out?

[lime token]

Q1 this year

[lilac wave]

thank uuu

[tranquil mirage]

My sister was sayin in order to prestige you also need to buy all the items in the store like the main equipment and optional equipment but she's not to sure on it does anyone know if that's true or can i just prestige when i get to 100?

[zinc coyote]

You just need to hit lvl 100

[silent sparrow]

How many Tanglewoods is it sent me

[tranquil mirage]

Alright thank you

[lime holly]

im predicting in march

[silent sparrow]

How is Tanglewood being reworked?

Smaller? Honestly, it should only have two rooms

[lime token]

Changing layout and improving assets and all that

[vast crown]

they're paying a license to use the existing tanglewood so for that and other reasons they are just remaking it in their own image

[lime token]

There's some images of the map in #game-announcements , just go to the blog

[analog widget]

-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.

[analog widget]

All housemaps are being reworked.

[blissful gust]

i welcome this tbh. all housemaps besides tanglewood need updating

[analog widget]

Yeah I agree except tw just because I hate the unity assets and its layout could be a bit better

[blissful gust]

true true

[zinc coyote]

As long as they dont mess up willow

[blissful gust]

willow is a classic some of the rooms aren’t great tho 😭

[lime token]

I love me some willow, but a rework wouldn't hurt

It's prolly the best map for looping, 3 spots in the living room alone

[analog widget]

Imo I think any map that hasnt been reworked or wasn't within the last 2 years needs a rework

[sinful rock]

I bought the game 10 minutes ago and I’m scared to even go inside the house

[wise oyster]

Do the Training then

[kind prairie]

Are here germans? Eventually?

[sinful rock]

I Alr did that

[wise oyster]

Probably, they'd be speaking English in chat channels though

[blissful gust]

idk i think maple is perfect besides room boundaries

[wise oyster]

good start then 👍

[wise oyster]

maple's been reworked already

came out fall of 2023

[silent sparrow]

this challenge is killing me, ugh

[lime token]

Rip old maple ❤️

[kind prairie]

My english iss Not so good

[blissful gust]

oh fr? i only started playing in jan 2024 😭

[wise oyster]

You can use any language in the LFG channels, but they want the chat channels English only for moderation purposes.

[wise oyster]

The only un-reworked ones left are the 4 house maps, high school, and prison

[atomic leaf]

SM is fine

[silent sparrow]

i have been on this golden apoc challenge for 3 days

[wise oyster]

yeah SM was the first rework

[tall imp]

prison just feels so empty and lifeless to me

so i agree with that one, but i like the others

[silent sparrow]

does anyone here have some genuine tips for Golden Apoc?

[blissful gust]

i think highschool is fine just needs some sort of map like SM so u can use the ouija board easier

[lime token]

Does SM still have that bone thing lol

[tall imp]

yup

bone is still bugged

[atomic leaf]

somehow yes lmao

[wise oyster]

high school needs it the most. It's a copy/paste Unity Store asset map

[atomic leaf]

its been 4+ months now

[lime token]

That's gonna make my vr perfect game a whole lot easier

[tall imp]

what difficulty u gonna go for?

[blissful gust]

personally it adds to the atmosphere so i do like it when playing with multiple ppl

[lime token]

15x

[tall imp]

gulp...

gl!

[silent sparrow]

i need tips for 15x

[vast crown]

i want an event ghost that makes fart sounds for the footsteps (april fools????)
it's a goryo every time

[silent sparrow]

I thought i was good at no evidence, but obviously not

[blissful gust]

it’s always a mimic

[atomic leaf]

I want the brownstone layout to stay the same but they just update everything else

[lime token]

Brownstone needs more objects and the hallways not to be straight

[main meadow]

Wish granted how ever the smell the ghost emits causes your character to cough and slow down alerting the ghost to you.

[vast crown]

i always said the same about the items then i found the cafeteria

[vast crown]

"cursed hunt"

[lime holly]

I think it needs a severe size reduction too. Like 30%

[tall imp]

by what point would you expect players to be able to loop ghosts well

[vast crown]

a lot just don't loop

[tall imp]

like what level/presitge i mean

[lime token]

Anything to make bone hunting bearable

[tall imp]

i need my hunting ghost videos and i dont wanna waste incense

[silent sparrow]

i mean, do you really even need to loop ghosts?

[lime holly]

at first i wanted to say 50% but it felt like doing that much would make it feel more like a medium map when its a large map.

[lime token]

Depends, and anyways, looping isn't required and unnecessary like 99% of the time

[vast crown]

practice with the dining room tables on tanglewood/ridgeview if you really want to (instead of the tanglewood kitchen island)

[silent sparrow]

yeah, like, it's a good skill to know, but like, i rarely find myself using looping

[lime holly]

hopefully they just rework the bone mechanic completely or remove it from the game

[atomic leaf]

I am so glad woodwind has a shimmy spot again

[tall imp]

omg bone on high school is actually torture

[vast crown]

O.o

[silent sparrow]

bonefinder9000

[lime token]

what.

[atomic leaf]

I'm not actually happy about it but it is a thing

[blissful gust]

i never look for it unless i have the ouija board 😭

[silent sparrow]

does "cleanse the area near the ghost using incense" count during a hunt?

[lime holly]

is it one of those disgusting ones like the master bedroom ridgeview one

[vast crown]

lemme just "hide" in this tent

[atomic leaf]

you need the barrels next to games tent to be there

[lime token]

Ya

[vast crown]

yep

[silent sparrow]

thought so, wasn't sure

I'm rerolling golden apoc for good objs lmao

actual torture

[lime token]

Best objectives are the ones you'd be doing anyway, like cleanse, repel etc

[tall imp]

3 unique photos are easy btw

[silent sparrow]

yeah, but with the video and sound ones, it's a lot of bloat

[tall imp]

because on sm bone is bugged, and u need a ghost photo and emf is easy

[lime token]

Only bad objective in my opinion is event

[tall imp]

crucifix is terrible too

[lime token]

Maybe multiple unique videos/sounds as well

[silent sparrow]

crucifix is eh

[tall imp]

unless u have a roamer

[lime token]

Ehh not really

[lime holly]

crucifix is so overhated imo

[silent sparrow]

depends on the area

i just want to get this challenge done so i never have to touch it again

[tall imp]

what if u have like a deo or something tf are u meant to figure out where the ghost room is

[lime token]

Just smudge the ghost near the end of a hunt and bring crucis to the room

[lime holly]

^

[silent sparrow]

Deo? You can just use the parabolic to find the room?

[tall imp]

true,..

[silent sparrow]

flick light switches till it stops, and then use parabolic as soon as you can to find the closest area it just came out of

[agile gorge]

Yo

How r you

[silent sparrow]

the problem with my challenge hasn't been finding the ghost rooms, it's been finding the ghost, i'll think "oh yeah, it must be a goryo because it's hunted 18 times from this one room" only to find out it's like a shade or some shit

[tall imp]

eventually you'll get something obvious like a moroi

[silent sparrow]

someone told me they got the achievement second try because it was a deo, and i'm just like haha, cries in 20th try

[lime token]

Moroi was my appc ghost, I remember it quite well

[tall imp]

i got mine with a phantom

[silent sparrow]

how do you tell if it's a moroi easy again? i'm kinda tired, so i'm forgetting stuff

[tall imp]

morois are fast with low sanity

[silent sparrow]

ah, and you're 0 sanity, so it'd be literally usain bolt

[tall imp]

yup

[lime token]

They'll also get smudged for 7 seconds compared to 5

[tall imp]

be careful not to mix it up with a hantu

i did that TWICE when i was going for my apoc

[silent sparrow]

i tried using the BPM thing on the cheat sheet, but that did not go well for me

[tall imp]

i think the issue with hantus is they are a similar speed the entire time, as they can't make the room freezing and breaker is broken so the entire place is around the same temp

[silent sparrow]

had a really obvious banshee i mistaked for twins earlier

was quite upset about it

woe is me, another kitchen ghost

i hate these because i have literally 0 idea how to approach it

[tall imp]

slowly scoot down the hall

[silent sparrow]

last time i did that, john McGhost ran me down

[tall imp]

lmao

[agile gorge]

Can we all be friends with me please?

[fleet valley]

YALL whos down to phas with me

[prime elk]

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

When someone said welcome back I accidentally followed with

I’ve got some jobs ready for you

So Obambo can change speed during the hunt unlike The Twins?

[vast crown]

yea

[silent sparrow]

This damn challenge is gonna be the death of me

[primal gorge]

So my theories and badges are gone, I have the halloween one from 22? but all the other are gone

Easter, Christmas and others are gone and the badges like the deadman from the lighthouse and the bloodmoon event

Thanks! It just took redownloading the game

[unborn hollow]

how to use music box?

[main meadow]

Activate it walk toward the sound of singing but not to fast if close the ghost will start walking to you place do not drop! The music box on the floor or a table and take a picture of the event asap.

Takes practice can be scary to master but I like it when I have sanity

[unborn hollow]

itll do an event when its near you?

[main meadow]

You have to do it just right like I said practice but the walk to the box and then as it reaches it right B4 it hunts from reaching it is an event.

[unborn hollow]

oh it hunts when you usee it?

[main meadow]

If you have full sanity you can hear the whole song if you do not approach the ghost.
Dropping the box, using it with low or no sanity, and the ghost reaching the box will cause a hunt.

Most cursed objects cause hunts one way or another

Cards can but the RNG could be a damn deck of towers and sun

[grim creek]

I noticed while playing the game earlier this week that the entire journal is alphabetized except for Deogen and Demon

[next turret]

What does the tower do?

[velvet oak]

ik twins is one ghost but do they have different models while hunting

[whole topaz]

No you can tell by ghost speed or different special ghost abilities

[dusk tapir]

I've been resetting for demon slayed for maybe 30 minutes now and I've had a thaye hunt but no demon -_-

[last drift]

Then you're not doing it right.

There's a specific custom setting that I can suggest

[dusk tapir]

I'm using identical settings to multiple videos I've seen

[wise oyster]

settings can't force the game to give you a demon

[last drift]

But they do prevent Thaye hunts

[past shell]

Also if you didn’t know tho the demon has to kill you by using his ability specifically

[carmine depot]

ghost types are complete rng there's no way to confirm a ghost type with settings

[wise oyster]

when you leave game, you don't get to find out if it was another ghost or a demon that didn't hunt in 1 minute (which is also very possible)

[dusk tapir]

That's what I've been doing

[last drift]

Ok

[dusk tapir]

I set a timer and wait like 50 seconds before leaving

[dusk tapir]

I know.

[last drift]

My bad I was under the impression the settings prevent Thaye from hunting.

[wise oyster]

They do

[last drift]

So if it was hunting, then it wasn't correct my bad.

That's all I was pointing out

[dusk tapir]

I've double checked the settings

[past shell]

Tbh just let it happen naturally

[wise oyster]

but that's a minor thing regardless

[dusk tapir]

I mean

[wise oyster]

just shit luck

[dusk tapir]

Got my hopes up for failure

I got a demon but the it never counted

[past shell]

Immaculate mindset

[wise oyster]

30 minutes would be fast, tbh

[past shell]

I got mine on accident

[dusk tapir]

I got demon third try and I somehow screwed it up

[past shell]

Didn’t even know the thing existed

[dusk tapir]

[wise oyster]

ofc that's about how long it took me, but I just speedran deaths

[past shell]

How do you screw up running at the ghosts

[dusk tapir]

The kill never counted towards the achievement

[velvet oak]

how the fuck is the ghost sometimes just straight up going to my location even in a hiding spot

[past shell]

That’s not you screwing it yp

That’s your getting unlucky

[dusk tapir]

It's 75% sanity 5% sanity pill increase 0% sanity drain right

That's what I've seen

I have like 300 hours on this game I want the achievement,😅

[past shell]

A deogen always 100% books it to you no matter if your in a hiding spot or not

The trick is to just outrun it becusee it’s super fast when it’s running to you but it slows down to a snails pace when it’s near you

[velvet oak]

was a jinn

[dusk tapir]

Heard you then

[past shell]

Wait are you not able to have it on 0 saint

[past shell]

Did you have any electrics on near you

[dusk tapir]

It's what's recommended. To have it on 0

[past shell]

Or with you

[dusk tapir]

No ghost "books it to you" unless they've detected you

Other than deo

[velvet oak]

no

[past shell]

I was bouta say

[past shell]

He either saw you before you ran to the hiding spot or game bugged

[dusk tapir]

Were u using official or unofficial hiding spots

[past shell]

Good point

[grim creek]

^^, only way to completely eliminate ghost types with settings is by choosing a winter jest map i think because that'd eliminate banshee/dayan

[dusk tapir]

Yep

[grim creek]

I wonder if they'll introduce a male exclusive ghost for the easter event

[dusk tapir]

Krampus is forced male

[past shell]

Interesting

Bro that rule that banshees and Dayans can only be females feels feminist idk why

[dusk tapir]

Ghost lore

Dats why

[past shell]

Ah

[grim creek]

I kinda wish it wasn't a thing in the game but I get why it's there

[velvet oak]

can you make a video of drawing a tarot card

[dusk tapir]

Bro they honestly have to make goryo / mare easier to identify

It's so dumb

I've seen like half the ghosts in the game do mare ability.

• Goryos ability is so lackluster and COMPLETELY RNG based

[grim creek]

Make the Mare slower in light and faster in the dark, and make the Goryo dots visible to the naked eye but only visible when you're not in the room

[dusk tapir]

I mean u can argue rng with any ghist

[dusk tapir]

Or just make mare completely unable to hunt in light

I mean goryo dots is fine. I'm referring to zero evidence

Goryo is impossible unless you've been in there for atleast 7 minutes

Or rule out everything else

[rancid ivy]

Imo Goryo should have DOTS hunts be an actual thing. Just make is so when it's blinking around during a hunt, it shifts to DOTS mode during the blinks if it walks through the sensor.

Also, it's main DOTS ability should lose the damn same room restriction. There's no reason to have that.

[velvet oak]

isnt 0 evidence like going against the entire point of the game

[rancid ivy]

0 evidence is just a shift from using evidence to ID the ghosts, to their general behavior. You're still doing an investigation but just with less resources.

[dusk tapir]

Yes? But if the ghost is only identifiable with evidence then it isn't a good ghost design

[past shell]

I had an ungodly amount of mares in my apoc 3 runs

[dusk tapir]

I always get yurei on CWW

[rancid ivy]

Mare needs a new ability entirely. The lightswitch ability is so generic and risks breaking itself because the Mare can bust hte lights more often.

[dusk tapir]

• all ghosts can do mare ability

[past shell]

Is it possible to rule out goryos like that??? Confirmed?

[dusk tapir]

It's just REALLY unlucky

[dusk tapir]

I mean that as a random number. Like, if you're in the house for so long on high room switch and it hasn't.
Probably a goryo.

But all ghosts can theoretically just.. not room switch

[rancid ivy]

Goryos have an elimination test, which is better than nothing, but it requires a ghost to change rooms which is RNG based.

[past shell]

How many people here have completed apoc 3 and what ghost did you do it with. I did mine with a rev

[dusk tapir]

ORR add that one rumor that goryo has to have the bone near the room

[grim creek]

Cool fact I just figured out - you can have evidence set to three, yet still completely disable D.O.T.S and Ultraviolet happening

[dusk tapir]

I believed that for awhile

[past shell]

In

[gusty night]

if i wanted to learn to identify ghosts without evidence/during hunt would just going in 0 sanity and probably dying a lot be best option for that? im basically brand new player

or should i still learn all the normal evidences first

[past shell]

Yes

[grim creek]

Turn off flashlights in the custom menu and saddle yourself with T1 Dots and T1/T3 Ultraviolet.

[sick field]

Does insense prevent ghosts from hunting for a little bit?

[past shell]

Learn how to use all evidence then later go to two then go to one then non

[carmine depot]

i'd recommend watching some experienced content creators as well or maybe trying to find a group of people to play with to help you

[dusk tapir]

No. Start out with nightmare. Get your evidence and hope for a hunt. If it isn't obvious keep trying to figure it out. If you get it wrong, go like "oh. That's why X did Y"

That's how I figured them out. Slowly go from nightmare to insanity and whatnot.

But yeah get good at looping before that. 3 evidence before limited evidence

[past shell]

Casson

[past shell]

Don’t start with two evidence

[dusk tapir]

The first ghosts I ever learned were the obvious speed ones. Like rev and stuff

[dusk tapir]

?

[velvet oak]

is jane a male or female ghost

[dusk tapir]

Fem

[carmine depot]

either one

[dusk tapir]

Oh?

[carmine depot]

oh i thought you typod jinn

[past shell]

Nightmare is two evidence is it not

[dusk tapir]

Loll

[dusk tapir]

Yes

[past shell]

Is Cora a boy or girl

[dusk tapir]

I'd guess girl

[past shell]

You just told him to start with nightmare

[gusty night]

learning the speed ones first does make sense and is there a reason you say learn normally first @past shell

[grim creek]

Jane is a girl exclusive, but Jan is a guy I believe

[dusk tapir]

Did you actually read my message because I clarified at the end you have to get good at looping, not dying and getting evidence before event attempting nightmare

[gusty night]

any you recommend ?

[past shell]

I saw

I’m tired. I go read bible then sleep gn

[carmine depot]

so you have some identifiers that give you like a general group that makes it easier to identify specific behaviors of each ghost instead of having to guess from all of them

also to answer your other reply, i like watching maggstor mainly, i haven't been watching streams much though so i dont have many others to recommend

[grim creek]

You don't have to really

[sick field]

Does insense prevent ghosts from hunting for a little bit?

[grim creek]

The last two for sure but you could still hide, you don't need to loop at all

[carmine depot]

the partners role in this server is all of the partnered twitch streamers who play phas

[dusk tapir]

Yes. The moment you incense a normal ghost has to wait 1 minute and 30 seconds to hunt

[carmine depot]

-incense

[prime elk]

Incense (Consumable: Tiers I and II)

The Incense is a useful multipurpose item in Phasmophobia. With an Igniter in your inventory, you can light the Incense by hitting Right Mouse Button.

The functions Incense serves are as follows:

Functions

1. During a hunt, lighting the Incense will disorient the Ghost for a few seconds depending on the tier, giving you more time to hide.

2. Cleansing the area around the Ghost will prevent a hunt and increase activity for a certain amount of time depending on the tier.

[sick field]

every moroi I have been getting is ignoring hunt delays through incense

[dusk tapir]

Odd ?

Its not supposed to

I know moroi has a lunger stun timer but

Shouldn't effect it

[carmine depot]

are you confident they're morois and are getting hit by the smudges? also when are you starting your timer?

[sick field]

I just incsensed, (tier 2) and 5 seconds later it hunted my friend.

[dusk tapir]

Did u incense during hunt ?

[rancid ivy]

I beat mine with a Wraith.

[sick field]

no I incensed for the objective, then turned to leave and the door slammed

[carmine depot]

did the objective complete

[dusk tapir]

Then you never hit the ghost

[sick field]

lame

[dusk tapir]

If the objective didn't complete yeah

[sick field]

well it did get the objective

[carmine depot]

odd

[dusk tapir]

Bug?

[sick field]

idk why I keep having problems with morois

[dusk tapir]

They be like dat

[sick field]

I think so

Thank you

anyone wanna play phas we need 1-2 more

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

[glacial stag]

yeah not a thing anymore

tents just suck in general for closing door interactions

ghosts dont know how to use zippers

[lone knot]

Oh so they got rid of the subtle "double interaction sound" for Yurei on tent flaps? Fml

[glacial stag]

in general the double door touch was removed

[vast crown]

yeah its fucked lol

[lone knot]

Damn. So you just have to use process of elimination and be like "guess it's a Yurei then"

[vast crown]

hope it roams to campfire and have the gate fully open for it at least

apparently the bathroom stalls will present yurei tells now too

[glacial stag]

door is door

[vast crown]

Ahh yes, this floor is made of floor

[brazen python]

wait for the camp map (small one) what would the tent names be like as a ghost room

[vast crown]

blue tent, red tent, white tent

games tent and food tent by the campfire

[glacial stag]

yellow tent

[brazen python]

ohh ok

[glacial stag]

cant believe u forgot about poor yellow

[vast crown]

lol

that one's bad for bones

[lone knot]

Almost 800 hours and I still have issues with some ghosts.

[vast crown]

then add the new ones in to the mix

at least banshee's easier to rule out now, being exclusively female

[glacial stag]

chicken ghosts

[vast crown]

chippies

[naive plinth]

If you are prestige 0, and you get to level 200, can you get to prestige II, or once you get to prestige I does it wipe it

[glacial stag]

nop

p1

[solemn stream]

prestiging only adds +1, no matter how far above 100 you are

[naive plinth]

so youll get P1, but then go back to level 1, so effectively "wasting" 100 levels

[lofty nest]

is it known that Ghost Shapeshift doesn't count for a video of a ghost objective?

[solemn stream]

yes

[glacial stag]

also theres no point going to lvl 200 then prestiging since it'll take more time than just reaaching lvl 100, prestiging then go to p2

[solemn stream]

it's an ability

[carmine depot]

hello

[glacial stag]

must be a blue moon if u showing up

[lofty nest]

huh, seems like a weird distinction

[carmine depot]

lol i've been a little more active recently

[lofty nest]

thank you!

[glacial stag]

u do the winter jest stuff

?

[carmine depot]

i did

[glacial stag]

👏

[carmine depot]

i don't think i did any of the objectives actually but i played a few sessions with my boyfriend

[glacial stag]

ah so u didnt get the upgrades?

just the base id card and trophy?

[carmine depot]

yeah i think so

[glacial stag]

aw

[carmine depot]

that's okay i haven't kept up with a lot of the recent events

not a fan of the rinse and repeat ngl

[glacial stag]

👁️ but grinding is apart of a lot of games

[carmine depot]

yeah i just mean like some of the recent events feel really similar to the previous year ones

[wise oyster]

that's b/c they are

[glacial stag]

they did say that the seasonal events will be repeats

with some variations

[carmine depot]

sad

i liked the new ideas when they were developing them

[wise oyster]

Krampus wins most improved event

[manic reef]

when do i start the timer when testing for a spirit? after the hunt or right after the smudge?

[glacial stag]

i assume to focus more on major updates

[carmine depot]

that's okay at least the cosmetics are different

[carmine depot]

after smudge

[glacial stag]

past seasonal events were very unique but they took a lot of time

[carmine depot]

yeah that's valid

maybe they'll vary again when it's out of beta

even like 2 or 3 different versions to cycle per year would be fine i think

[manic reef]

tyy

[glacial stag]

with how big the seasonal trophies are, i wouldnt be surprised if the rewards for seasonal events are cosemtic items instead of trophies and/or upgrades

[carmine depot]

well with the character revamp i'm sure they'll have fun with that

[glacial stag]

or u know they give us another cabinet to fill up

[wise oyster]

presumably the locked room will be opened up

[glacial stag]

me hoping u can record ppl being revived now

[carmine depot]

where are they gonna put the tweaker 😔

[wise oyster]

Lisa will be your personal stylist

[glacial stag]

by the window like the creeepy dude during old halloween

[glacial stag]

with her skin and hair care routine? hell no

[carmine depot]

i'd like if they had like a partially opened closet where she does the jumpscare that she used to do in the old lobby

if you walked up close to it

[glacial stag]

maybe if u stare too long in the mirror

she'll scare u

[whole topaz]

Who likes the new phas leaks specifically the revamp of the kitchen

[carmine depot]

that would be cool too

[glacial stag]

not really leaks

they dev previews

[carmine depot]

revamp of the kitchen?

[whole topaz]

Kindia

[glacial stag]

tanglewood rework

i assume is what they meant

[whole topaz]

The whole map so far

[carmine depot]

oh i see

[whole topaz]

With the 2 previews we got I like it besides no island to loop the ghost around

[fiery thunder]

can somone tell me how to yokai test

[wise oyster]

since it looks like it's getting some layout changes, we'll just have to wait til we can see the final product

[carmine depot]

cute

i wonder if the island will be like a fridgeview hiding spot

[glacial stag]

ppl fumming coz "oh no they taking away my looping spot by the counter"

[wise oyster]

It does look like a nice, more realistic starter home

[carmine depot]

ceiling fan in the kitchen is a choice

[glacial stag]

even though we have no idea on the layout of the map

[carmine depot]

i feel like i don't normally see those there

[glacial stag]

a loop spot could literally be behind in the pov

[glacial stag]

it weird to me

[wise oyster]

I have one in my kitchen, house I grew up in had one in the kitchen

[glacial stag]

i just open windows

[carmine depot]

i guess i have one like right outside my kitchen

smoke control i guess

[glacial stag]

no exhaust above ur stove?

[wise oyster]

to me this looks like a 100% plausible kitchen

[carmine depot]

we have that too but my father likes to burn things sometimes cause he can't smell very well

[wise oyster]

That's actually a nice hood

[glacial stag]

who's grandma's house did they model this tanglewood after

[paper aspen]

Can someone play Phasmophobia with me? I new. 🥺🥺🥺

[glacial stag]

also shork would will upset if theres no old fashioned like radio or Gramophone to literally tangle too

[sharp locust]

has anyone been having glitches with the haunted objects not activating a hunt?

[grim creek]

It looks so much like my grandmothers house. I love it

[boreal moth]

Anyone keep getting disconnected server timeout error this is the 2nd time this week

[glacial stag]

which objects?

[sharp locust]

voodoo doll and ouija board

heart won't activate a hunt and the board wont activate a hunt with hide and seek

[glacial stag]

did u have a t3 crucifix in the room?

[sharp locust]

it wasn't in the room, both times we had the crucifix in the basement on willow street and then we were using the objects upstairs in the kitchen

but we did have a t3 out in the basement

[glacial stag]

but did the crucifixes get used when u did try to start the hunt?

[sharp locust]

no they didn't burn either time

[glacial stag]

and u werent on a friendly ghost setting right?

[sharp locust]

no we are on professional w no customs

[glacial stag]

[sharp locust]

we also have been having issues with the bones spawning in places we can't find or can't get to

ikr it's so weird this is super abnormal LOL

[carmine depot]

i believe voodoo doll has been having occasional issues with not triggering hints

i'm unsure about ouija

[glacial stag]

thats been around for ages, they spawn where the ghost can walk to, like through beds or smt

[sharp locust]

yeah i've heard of that but lowkey it's never happened to me the whole couple years i've been playing LOL i think i just usually get lucky

[empty zealot]

is anyone having problems with the ghost popping up outside the house on tanglewood?

[sharp locust]

gotcha thank you guys for the help!

[vernal stump]

@empty zealot I've seen a video with the ghost hunting on the roof

ive seen that too ...but we had one popup outside of the window to the boys room .... we were all confused

[oblique lantern]

Hi I think I was added on accident

[vagrant ocean]

nothing like getting a blood moon on my 2nd nightmare run after a break

[torpid wyvern]

I was hosting and a dude who was a fresh install joined, I put that bitch on nightmare and we managed to get a perfect game. I even taught him a thing or two about all the ghosts n crap like the mares “Nuh uh” light switch mechanic

Funny enough i think it was some girls dad, he told me his kid wanted him to try it

[noble jackal]

i havent played in a while and i just had the most active shade ive ever seen, did they make it so its extra active when no ones nearby? bc from what i remember a shade would just not do anything ever.
also this was probably asked hundrends of times but what constitutes as freezing temps? i saw my own breath but temp was 3.0 i was playing on campsite

[torpid wyvern]

Shades act up when no one babysits. Fzts are freezing temps. Not big suprise

[stark dove]

shade is less active overall and completely inactive when someones in the room with it. freezing temps is 0.9C on t3 and t2 thermo

breath doesnt mean freezing anymore, it just means the room your'e in is at or below 5C

[ornate inlet]

I beat apocalypse 3 today after so many grueling hours 🥹🥹when apocalypse 4

[torpid wyvern]

Was it a deo?

[noble jackal]

thanks guys ❤️

[ornate inlet]

yeah 😭

but I still did it 😁

[torpid wyvern]

Shoot that’s what matters

I’ve been watching guides n stuff to learn how to identify the dastardly ghouls

[ornate inlet]

after 120 hours it's fairly easy to remember!!

[alpine sky]

Wholesome

[unborn hollow]

can emf 5 only happen in the ghost room

[torpid wyvern]

Trust me, it’s not exactly common knowledge. Which is why I reccommend playing on nightmare instead of professional

[torpid wyvern]

No but strong indicator

[ornate inlet]

I've died twice with a deo on apocalypse 3 purely bcuz of the T1 incense being so random so I switched to T3 and had to pass through him a few times

[stark dove]

no, everything that leaves an emf reading will always have a 33% chance to turn into emf5

[tall imp]

no any emf 2 has a chance to be replaced with emf 5 iirc

if the ghost has emf 5 evidence

[torpid wyvern]

Im team T2 incense, slows are powerful and in my opinion, wayyyy better than stunning the damn thing

[stark dove]

every smudge tier has their time and place

[torpid wyvern]

I finally figured out why phantoms are so deadly to newer players

[stark dove]

stalky and hard to see

[torpid wyvern]

When in doubt get a smudge out, don’t care what type, all fine

[stark dove]

thats the way to think

[ornate inlet]

I didn't like how random it was so I decided to play it safe and stun the ghost and just walk through it ☝️

[torpid wyvern]

I think of it more as like a predator, you know the one that can go invisible that Arnold fought?

[ornate inlet]

and funnily enough on my apoc 3 run I also found the bone 😭

[torpid wyvern]

The bone spawns in the same place in sunny meadows

[stark dove]

comparing phantom with predator lmao

theyre pretty close ig

[ornate inlet]

really?? it always has the same spawn?

[torpid wyvern]

Y e s

[torpid wyvern]

Shoot my first phantom was a crawler ghost, that thing was a freak of nature, very scary

[stark dove]

sounds like it just wanted a hug

[torpid wyvern]

It got one, that’s for damn sure

I’ve started going full zombieland and creating my own rules of phasmo

Rule number one! Never forget your lighter

Rule number two! If you can’t loop, find a good hiding spot

Rule number three! Don’t be a hero, your friends are temporary, phasmo cash is forever!

The T3 crucifix ain’t gonna pay for itself 🙏

[ornate inlet]

I just did some reading

turns out that's a bug I think

[torpid wyvern]

Orrrrrrr it’s a feature to help with the apoc challenges

[ornate inlet]

is it really 😭it says on the wiki it's a big since version 0.14.0

bug*

[torpid wyvern]

I ain’t no dev, so idk, but it kinda makes sense

One of my best phasmo moments was finding the bone on highschool

Ghost was a rev, and my buddies tasked me to find the bone while they watched the ghost room

I search half the school and I radio them asking how it’s going

S i l e n c e

Then the rev hears me so I duck into a classroom to escape

From there I played cat and mouse for another 30 mins until I found the bone

Shit starts to get real when you don’t have incenses. All I had was a flashlight and a prayer

That separates them phasmo men from the boys

[noble jackal]

BROO this dude keeps spamming ghost events

its my second game out of retirement

[delicate scarab]

I’m in an apoc 3 run how tf do you work while this thing is hunting every 2 seconds

[ornate inlet]

just stay at spawn with a parabolic microphone and just pray for like a deo

getting like a banshee would also be easy

[delicate scarab]

Dudeee a few games ago I reset cause all 3 objectives were media and it was a deo lol

Well I found out it’s in the left wing now

Just moving equipment

[noble jackal]

what does deo do with the parabolic?

[zinc coyote]

Has a unique voice line

[dawn salmon]

looking for bone on high school is 💀

[worldly forum]

With the rework last year to media, finding the bone now is almost never worth it, it adds so little to a perfect game that unless you find it real fast, it ain't worth a room by room search on bigger maps, sadly

[tall imp]

don't you mean spirit box?

or is there some elite game knowledge i dont know about

[zinc coyote]

Oh, yeah. My bad just woke up lol

[tall imp]

xd

[delicate scarab]

@zinc coyote yo gang isn’t hunt cooldown like 60 seconds for most ghosts?

I’m getting like around 30 seconds to breathe between hunts suspecting it’s a demon

[marble mango]

How high of a level do you have to be to not be kicked from 80% of lobbies you join?

[marble mango]

I believe it's 90 for most. 60 for demon. 120 for spirit

[zinc coyote]

Thats demon. Demon can hunt 60s after being smudged

Standard hunt is every 25 sec, 20 for demon

[delicate scarab]

That’s without smudge right?

[zinc coyote]

Yes

[delicate scarab]

Yeah I’ve timed a few hunts its around 30 seconds

I have all the objectives done I’m just waiting for a ghost photo I ain’t tryna ruin this run

[zinc coyote]

Might be able to rule out demon unless you're just unlucky. The 20/25 timer is just a standard. If the ghost wants to be a doodoo head, it can choose to hunt later

[tall imp]

after smudges, demons are 60 seconds

normal ghosts are 1 min 30

[delicate scarab]

But I’m not smudging it tho

[tall imp]

and spirits are 3 mins

after a hunt, most ghosts can hunt after 25 seconds, however demons can hunt in 20

hunt tests are a lot more unreliable, if you want to test a demon i would reccomend smudging it

[zinc coyote]

Shades wont hunt at all if you're in its room

[tall imp]

yes

[delicate scarab]

I mean I smudged it once it was under 1 minute and 30

[tall imp]

demon then

[delicate scarab]

But I had to hit 2 smudges though

[tall imp]

or a mimic mimicing demon ability

[delicate scarab]

Does another smudge restart the timer

[tall imp]

no, unless the previous smudge timer has ran out

a good spirit test is using that to your advantage, smudging it right before 3 mins pass and seeing if it hunts or not

[zinc coyote]

When are you starting the timer? You ned to start it as soon as you smudge

[delicate scarab]

Yeah it’s def not a spirit

[tall imp]

the second you smudge the timer starts

[delicate scarab]

As soon as I smudge it yeah

[tall imp]

good

[zinc coyote]

Is it normal speed?

[delicate scarab]

Yeah normal speeds

Throughout all hunts

[zinc coyote]

What difficulty are you doing?

[delicate scarab]

Apocalypse 3

[tall imp]

if you want, you can use 1 more smudge just to test

[zinc coyote]

Ah, okay. Yeah. Ghost traits are gonna be your biggest help

[delicate scarab]

I’m good at playing 0 sanity

But its kinda difficult when you’re snail pase

[tall imp]

and when the ghost is cosplaying the flash its kinda hard

[zinc coyote]

Yeah player speed is the most annoying part of apoc

[delicate scarab]

Yeah exactly

Here’s what imma do imma lure the ghost to me smudge it get the photo needed then start the timer hoping its a demon

[tall imp]

gl!

[delicate scarab]

I just died 💀 it was a damn yurei

[tall imp]

thats a really hard one

[delicate scarab]

How? They have a really easy trait to identify

[ornate inlet]

you can just tell that it's a deo by listening to it's speed and if it's coming towards you

[tall imp]

well on apoc

getting close to the ghost room is....

[delicate scarab]

Yeah that’s what I’m mainly having an issue with so far

[ornate inlet]

a deo is really fast and you'll hear it's speed on the parabolic and that it's zooming straight for you, then just back away and if it slows down then you know it's a deo

[delicate scarab]

You know the thing is the ghost room wasn’t that far I’m so pissed at myself for it too

I could’ve laid down some crucifixes and see if I could spot some traits

Wait a sec it turns out I was in the ghost room for 23 seconds 💀 but I didn’t step foot outside the reception area once

[ornate inlet]

when the ghost room is at the entrance it's so annoying 😭

I got a demon spawn at the entrance and got the doom slayed ability that way

[delicate scarab]

I had all objectives done I was luring the ghost to me for a photo I incensed it and I spammed photos then it does a 180 to me and I tried to switch to my smudge but pulled out my lighter instead

That was like a 37 minute apoc run

[worldly forum]

I have only done apocalypse runs before the media rework but it took me about 20 games to finally get it, I did it twice more after that cause I enjoyed the challenge.

[delicate scarab]

Yeah this challenge got me thinking, I ain’t ready for it yet

[modern mauve]

15x perfect games can be fun in small doses

[worldly forum]

from what I understand, it got harder due to the media rework

[delicate scarab]

Ive been playing the game for like a few weeks I’ve got like good enough knowledge for no evidence my only issue in apoc 3 is getting near the ghost room

[worldly forum]

I play on a custom 4.18x, 3 evidence setting normally but go to 0 evidence from time to time for training, I'm really trying to make the jump to less evidence but it makes the game so so much harder

[worldly forum]

for apocalypse 3 you kind of need the Parabolic T3, without it it's so much harder

[delicate scarab]

I have everything tier 3

But my dumbass died in such a stupid way last run look in #videos

[worldly forum]

then keep trying, you'll get it!

[delicate scarab]

Tried to light the ghost on fire 😂

[quaint glade]

played intermediate for the first time i got mare twice in a row but 2nd time got killed squad wipe

[topaz star]

Freaking mares

[glacial stag]

This is why Goryos are better

[ornate inlet]

damn 😭😭

my apoc 3 run wasn't that long I think I spent around 20 mins

the ghost room was the kitchen and it wasn't switching so I easily got it and my objectives were:
prevent a hunt with a crucifix
get any emf photo
get 3 unique photos

I was really lucky but GETTING to this lucky game took me around 100 tries 😭

I did earn myself like 40k tho by just doing other 15x ghosts

[merry creek]

Ello

[zinc coyote]

Forgot how long mine took but it felt like forever lol

And I had a deo in the chapel for it

[ornate inlet]

that can be really annoying at the start

i swear with the deo it felt like it was getting closer each second

[zinc coyote]

Even on apoc 3 blood moon you can outrun it, but yeah. It gets pretty close lol

[ornate inlet]

my heart was beating so much when i realized i had gotten a deo 😭

it was my THIRD deo but i died on the other 2 cuz i was using a t1 incense

i prefer T3 since the other 2 are so random so i cant really do much if it walks to me

[zinc coyote]

[ornate inlet]

i do wanna retry apoc 3 one day WITHOUT a deo

its def possible

but notttt anytime soon 😭

[zinc coyote]

Same, I wanna do it with a rev

Wait that sounds bad lmao

[ornate inlet]

yeah probably like a banshee would be nice

smudge, take a photo and run and hide

[zinc coyote]

Banshee is a pain for apoc

[ornate inlet]

really? ive gotten it a few times and it was never hard for me

just get the banshee wail and im out

boom easy 6k

[shell token]

quick phas question guys,
in a "fake hunt" ghost event, will the ghost be 1.7m/s always, or if it was a thaye, for example, would it be as fast as it would during a real hunt?

[zinc coyote]

If they roam to you and spawn on you, yeah. insta ded

[zinc coyote]

No

Event and hunt speed is different. only hunts show the true speed

[ornate inlet]

pretty sure in a fake hunt its gonna be normal speed

no matter the ghost type

[shell token]

thank youuu

[tall imp]

I got mine with a phantom lmao, for about half the run it could've tp to me and kill me but it didn't, I got lucky

[ornate inlet]

u either get super lucky or u dont 😁

[tall imp]

I mean I got 2 deogens before my phantom win

[ornate inlet]

that is lucky

[wild reef]

just beat gold apocalypse

finally

[glacial stag]

nice nice

[tame bloom]

After my games on professional tanglewood it says failed to unlock badge and I am curious to what badge I would have gotten

[thick ocean]

Am I stupid or what? I Play Phasmo since for 2 month and I never got Banshee 😭

[tame bloom]

It was some bug, I got no badge 😭

[glacial stag]

there is no badge related to tanglewood

[tame bloom]

Yeah I searched it up it was a bug prob bc I was offline or smth

[cobalt matrix]

they should have given us a badge for playing tanglewood 100 times

[regal swift]

How to save a video on a camera

[light tinsel]

What device you on

[elder brook]

is nightmare a huge step going from prof? like is it hard? i can loop the ghost infinitely cause i keep dying when i smudge it and try to hide (tanglewood), and also know a few of the ghost trait

[glossy slate]

Hiya, new here and new to playing phasmo and wondered if someone could give me a bit of advice...im really struggling with the spirit box..I have activity, I stand by the activity and speak, wander round the room etc. Lights off, on my own, but no matter what I can't get a response and then evidence says it uses a spirit box. What am I doing wrong? Help please 🙂

[elder brook]

im gonna suggest use text mode for now, its way easier

[glossy slate]

Ohh how do I do that?

[elder brook]

click esc, then settings then on game find voice recognition mode, then set it to text

[glossy slate]

Oh awesome, done that. Thank you!

Ill give it a go now

[elder brook]

how do i drain my sanity, i want it to hunt but music box didnt work

[zinc coyote]

Music box drains sanity

[idle hemlock]

Well no, u mostly just need to know every ghosts abilities since u get 2 evidences insted of 3 and try to learn how to loop the ghost because mostly in hunts u figure out what ghost it is

[elder brook]

does staying ini the dark make me lose sanity, its not hunting and shade isnt a part of the choices

[idle hemlock]

Yes

[elder brook]

i got jinn gallu myling rn

and obake

[hazy current]

The obake my nemesis fr

[uneven cargo]

i hate myling

and jinn too , i heard that he cant turn off the fuse box thats the way to know it

[regal swift]

Pc

I was playing with friends and we filmed the ghost but ig we didnt save it so in the end we got nothing

[molten forum]

Sometimes if the ghost disappears too fast it wont count sadly, when recording youll see a circle fill up and when it counts you get that blinking box symbol

[idle hemlock]

For jinn its good to do 2 hunts to make sure. 1 with fuse box on which will make him very fast, and 2nd with fuse box off and if hes slower than 1st time its jinn

[uneven cargo]

thats also how you know it

the most ghost i love is deogo

ig thats his name

[idle hemlock]

Well thats the only way

[uneven cargo]

i played it on custom and i got it in first try and i got a lot of money lmao

[uneven cargo]

how many ghost that cant break fuse box ?

[molten forum]

Deo is good cause of how it slows down when close

[zinc coyote]

Monkey paw can break the fuse box

[uneven cargo]

yeah thats why i love this ghost

[uneven cargo]

ghost ?

[zinc coyote]

Ghost doesnt break the fuse box

Jinn cant turn it off, Hantu cant turn it on

[uneven cargo]

i meant turn it off not literally break it

[regal swift]

Aw shucks, but we literally filmed him when he was close and after summoning him with the circle 😭

[idle hemlock]

Jinn, but if its some other random ghost that doesnt mean he will turn fuse box off

[uneven cargo]

thats rare to see ghost to turn fuse box on

[molten forum]

That shouldve been long enough then if used summoning circle.. 😔

[idle hemlock]

Its not guaranteed

[zinc coyote]

It is, but if it turns it on, easy way to rule out hantu

[molten forum]

Sometime things be buggy

[uneven cargo]

ghost can turn off fuse easily by pissing them off with more lights

[uneven cargo]

idk i wouldnt think that way ,but yeah thats way too

[idle hemlock]

Still doesnt mean they will do it

[uneven cargo]

yeah , but still ghost pissed off by so many light . everytime i turn light ghost will shut it down

[exotic barn]

So just played a game we had ghost orbs in the basement we was down there for 10 mins waiting for something else to happen nothing did so we started looking at all the other evidence was in the garage so we picked mimic . It wast a mimic. I'm guessing this was just a broken ghost orbs placement ?

[idle hemlock]

Ghost changed room?

[uneven cargo]

mimic have evidence of spirit box. did you use cursed item to figuer it out?

[uneven cargo]

maybe

[exotic barn]

The orbs stayed in the basement the whole time ? Do they not move with ghost

[idle hemlock]

They do

[uneven cargo]

what ???

[exotic barn]

Pure we have no idea guess

[molten forum]

You only had ghost orbs? No other evidence?

[exotic barn]

Good news so orbs isn't 100%ghost room

Nope we had writing and something else

[idle hemlock]

When ghost with orbs changes room orb go with him

[molten forum]

Writing?

Mimics cant do writing

So thats a 100% tell sign its not a mimic

[exotic barn]

Ahh I see

[molten forum]

Just for future notice. Mimics cant have emf 5, writing or dots

[exotic barn]

I think we panicked cuz the evidence was split between 2 rooms

[molten forum]

So if you get orbs and any of those its no mimic

Its oki. Ive done it too til I realized

[uneven cargo]

lol i got eveidence of oni and in the end it was phantom lol

[idle hemlock]

How xd? Only evidence they have in common are dots i think

[outer comet]

Ok I need some help I'm doing Sunny Meadows Restricted, with the restricted wing being selected.
Fuse started off, but has been switched on long enough for the temps to rise to 20 in all the rooms that aren't the ghost room, which I made sure to check.
I found a cold room, however it's the hallway in the restricted wing, but according to the maps I'm consulting, it can't be the ghost's room..?
I know some rooms such as the foyer become eligible to being chosen as the ghost's room in specifically Sunny Meadows Restricted and not full Sunny Meadows, but this hallway isn't one of them.
I even checked restricted room 1's temperature and it's 20 so I have no clue what's happening.

[stone gazelle]

im gonna lose my real life sanity getting this doom slayed achievement

only 1 min is so unforgiving

[distant cobalt]

What do you get if you prestige?

[outer comet]

nevermind, one of the rooms has freezing temps, the ghost must've wandered outside long enough for it to get abnormally cold in the hallway

[outer comet]

new id card and badge

purely cosmetic I'm pretty sure

[distant cobalt]

Is that it? No like ‘perks’ for hitting prestige other then th id card and stuff

[outer comet]

I don't think so

[stone gazelle]

just cosmetics and an achievement for the first 3 times you do it

[outer comet]

hell, it's the opposite, you get all your equipment reset

[worthy mountain]

what stategy do you use?

[outer comet]

There's 20 different cards to unlock from prestiging, the second half being the same as the first ten except animated

[stone gazelle]

What ive been doing is running around tangle wood with a video cam, emf reader, and uv, if i see orbs i instantly leave, if not i hang around till i hear an interaction, like a door, if it has emf 5 i also leave but if it has uv i stick around for 1 minute and 10 seconds just in case my timer is off

the closest ive gotten was a demon who hunted at 1 MINUTE AND 12 SECONDS

[outer comet]

Wouldn't nell's diner work better?

[stone gazelle]

LEGIT EDGING ME

[worthy mountain]

I would recommend you a completely different way to get it

[outer comet]

I ain't an expert ofc but I thought it's smaller

[unborn inlet]

im new lvl 31 anyone got any tips?

[stone gazelle]

does it count if i have starting sanity at 0? ive heard mixed answers

i just need doom slayed and to prestige one more time and i will have gotten every achievement in the game, even APOC 3

[worthy mountain]

Camp Woodwind
Forced monkey paw,
Infinite sprint, player speed 150
Ghost speed 150
Set sanity drain speed to 0 %
Set starting sanity 75
Set ghost activity to high and event frequency at low (important thing)

Enter map and grab paw wish for activity
Leave after 1 minute of opening door
If ghost hunts, run into it and get hugged
if no hunt, restart

[worthy mountain]

yes, but it has to start an abiltiy-hunt, not a default one

[stone gazelle]

ohhh

so since u only wish for activity it doesnt count as forcing a huntttt

[stone gazelle]

does roaming frequency matter?

[worthy mountain]

make it at low, can affect a bit

[stone gazelle]

okay ima grind this for a few

[worthy mountain]

if you want you can add evidences and try to find some of them at the same time, if you got evid that the demon doesn't have, you can restart, but I wouldn't waste too much time on it, it's better to just follow the plan

[stone gazelle]

omg

out of my 1.2k+ games ive never seen slender man

so eery

[molten forum]

I saw him when it was somewhat light outside and raining

[torpid nexus]

did u guyz have gallu as spirit before hunt after 3min

[stone gazelle]

omg istg i just got a demon who hunted at 1:30

AHHAAHHAHAH

[worthy mountain]

lol 😭

[stone gazelle]

omg i thought i just had it, i wished for activity and heard singing thinking it was a hunt

it was a event D:

[naive drift]

so when it goes below 1 does that mean its freezing or does it have to be negative for it to be freezing? like it showed 0.1 does that mean its freezing

[molten forum]

did my first nightmare and it was a goryo im so glad it was somethin easy

[zinc coyote]

0.9 and below is freezing
