To clear up any confusion; the Yurei and Banshee were pure lucky guesses, as they cannot be identified from just the hunt This challenge will net you 0 evidence due to its settings, but if you're lucky, you may catch a glimpse of an orb on the main camera to identify the Mimic I was also lucky with the Shade, as it's ghost room was so close to the benches, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to tell If you have any questions, feel free to ask, and I'll do my best to reply to everyone! :^)
@@Xarvinthto increase the rewards multiplier, would you be able to change the following settings: “interaction amount” from low to high, “event frequency from low to high”, “hunt duration” to long, “fuse box shown on map” to off? (especially that last one) i might be missing something but with the currently settings i don’t know how much the actual difficulty guessing the ghost would be altered with these settings changed.
It is incredibly helpful to see the notes on screen. Kind of exactly what i was looking for. Being able to see some of the thought process, really appreciate it.
Xarv, I cannot state enough just how helpful your videos are. The thought process alone is worth its (metaphorical) weight in gold! I've been studying to pull this ultra-fast prestige route myself, and your content is exactly what I needed. Genuinely, thank you!
When you enter a room with low sanity. Shade: hey there.. You: .... Shade: Yes. You: looking around. Shade: What is this door? You: Tf? Shade: Oh boy i can move this door! You: Investigate.. Shade: OMG FILTHY HUMAN GO AWAY! You: Clueless, leaving the room. Shade: Finally, its hunting season! i just love this ghost type so much lmao
Been trying to get better at identifying ghosts in general for grinding but also overall playing. Honestly this video makes such an easy watching experience with the thought process text, rather than these like massive statistic spreadsheets of info u find everywhere else lol Thanks so much for the help, would love a part 2
I am impressed by your luck and skill of figuring out ghosts and getting good rng with what the ghost is i have a maybe 75% fail rate at getting the ghost, its always the yureis and shades man XD
I did way more runs than what you see in this video (I got blasted like 10 times lmao) I was being harassed by multiple Yurei's which ultimately let me to guess that The Banshee was also pure luck, but went with my gut feeling!
Funny enough your banshee singing hunt thing allowed me to pin the ghost down on this weeks challenge mode... More testing is needed to see if this is reliable
@@joshuaplays3586 It is not reliable, however, afaik the Banshee is the one ghost that only sings All ghosts can sing and do other stuff, but the Banshee only sings
It's not reliable. I would do 1-3 hunts with this exploit grind instead of just 1. I wasn't in any rush so I took my time a little more in case the ghost was hard or impossible to figure out. I had some luck identifying Banshees. Banshees will follow you around so sometimes I would move from the picnic tables. I did this especially when there was a ghost even because the ghost could hunt after the event was over and instakill you. I noticed that if the ghost was following me around (like watching its interactions always be near you) I would mark it Banshee.
The Yurei is the ONLY ghost that can FULLY close other doors other then the front door. it can also close the front door WITHOUT starting a hunt :) im not sure about the 'double touches' you mentioned though, but can do some investigating on that matter.
ah i didnt see your com and did a com... i didnt understand when he was saying "more singing during the hunt while he said banshee can't be identified during hunt, i guess so its in events TY
Yeah, sadly Mare and Yurei fall under the ghosts that you can't tell from just the hunt. You can test for Yokai though, just start screaming into your mic and if the ghost is completely oblivious, you got a Yokai on your hands lmao
Hi Xarv! Just a question, how did you know it was a Thaye and not a Moroi at 3:00 minute? You were in his LOS just for like 1/2 seconds...It could be a Moroi too or i'm wrong?
Due to its speed while I was hidden The Thaye is generally faster than the Moroi, up until you're spotted Had it been slightly slower, I would've went with Moroi But yes, I didn't spend enough time in LOS to give the viewer a general idea The coming parts will show Thaye vs Moroi a lot clearer
Ah i understand.. You can hear the difference in walking speed between a young Thaye and a 0% sanity Moroi.. Incredible :D gg man and thanks for the reply @@Xarvinth
3:53 my friends group have a meme going with the Farming mode,when its normal speed,normal behaviour everything we always say 'when in Doubt go Yurei' ,and it 70% works😂
@Xarvinth Did you noticed the fog get darker and darker as you played more matches? Seemed that way for me to the point where it looked just like Sunrise. But if I loaded the difficulty with different weather, and then went back to fog, the fog was normal again.
I keep messing up Raiju's and Oni's. Raiju because they basically always spawn close to me so I just think it's a Thaye and Oni because I just forget to look at the blinks...
TY for the answers in com Xarv, but i cant figure out the "song" in the banshee hunt? i only heard the song of the chase. Merci pour les explications rajoutées en commentaires. Cependant en regardant et écoutant, je n'entend pas la banshee "chanter" autre que le son de la chasse où elle chante comme les autres? Comme dit donc non identifiable/hunt
Not entirely sure I understand your question, but here goes The Banshee can sing/hum during any hunt/event and will do it more often than not Banshee itself cannot be told off of a single hunt, unless you play multiplayer
How can you tell when you're dealing with a demon, goryo, mare or mimic with only one hunt? I know you can tell that the ghost is a mimic if you see orbs, but holding a camera during a hunt wouldn't be a smart move. So how can you tell that you have one of the ghost that I mentioned with only witnessing one hunt?
You sadly cannot tell any of those ghosts apart using just one hunt. If you were to run this map, you may be lucky and have an orb on the main camera which would mean Mimic as evidence is disabled in this difficulty The issue with this challenge is that you'd only be able to tell 14 of the 24 ghosts, using just one hunt
It will change it's ghost model at least once every hunt I made it more obvious in part 3, and added text when exactly it happens So keep your eyes out for when that video drops! (still a wip)
why is the fuse bon location shown ? should be a multiplier you could get more, + be irrelevant since the breaker's gone so theres no jinn ability anyhow ?
Thaye is slightly faster than the Moroi at 0% Sanity, one way to tell them apart is that the Thaye will not speed up when you're in line of sight, whereas the Moroi will!
It's just terrible luck If you instantly die, that just means you were in the ghost room, and it just happened to be on top of you Or it's a Wraith that used its ability and then immediately hunted
For Jinn, there's a bunch of boxes that needs to be ticked before it can speed up It requires the Fuse Box to be ON, Line of Sight and to be a couple meters (3 or so) away from the target, before it'll speed up Moroi just need the average sanity to be low, and then it'll speed up further if a player is in line of sight
@@Xarvinth ohhhh okay awesome!! I appreciate it!! These are by far the best 1 hunt guide videos online. Everybody else talks thru them so you can’t really hear the footsteps speed up or anything! Your simplistic approach is far superior in my opinion and I appreciate the time you’ve put into making them to help everybody out!!
All I can says is that; if you you die in contract that uses foggy weather and relaunch another fog one, the weather bugs out and will then look different To fix it, you want to run a new contract using any other weather setting My settings are at the end of the video, or you can refer to the description for a full list! I hope this information is useful :)
Most, if not all ghosts can sing However, if it always sings during hunts/events, you're most likely facing a Banshee You can only pinpoint the Banshee in co-op play (I made a lucky guess)
The Jinn quickly speeds up to Raiju speed when it sees you. If you see it walking normally and then beeline to you when it sees you, it's most likely a Jinn. Good way to test is also have an electronic on you, and turn it off during the hunt to see if the ghost slows down. If it does, then it's a Raiju.
@@PossiblyAutoclicking I'm not sure why people think this when the Jinn has a clear speedup when it sees you. I did the grinding on Camp Woodwind to get the level 3 items, and Jinn was one of the easiest for me to discover because of the way it speeds up.
If the breaker is ON, the speed of the Jinn will be fixed at high speeds. This challenge has no breaker, so the Jinn is one of the ghosts you'd have to guess! If you do this with the breaker enabled, you'll be able to tell by it's sudden increase in speed (It's almost Raiju like, except the Jinn also needs line of sight and not electronics to speed up)
For solo play, yes However, this was my very first time trying the challenge, after not playing for a fair amount of time I usually play with a friend or two, and it's mostly just us messing around and having fun
Yes this is very boring. I only did this because I wanted the T3 items unlocked asap to see how they looked and functioned, then never again. Using all this knowledge (and more) on other maps to actually try to figure out the ghost, without having to guess half of the time, is very fun and feels very rewarding though.

Bro this strat has been making people tunnel vision hard in my lobbies. Like yesterday I was playing normal no evidence rounds (not the 0 sanity crazy x12 multiplier Camp Woodwind that people are farming for lvls), and we got a Thaye. It was obvious, very slow and did not speed up at all in LoS. Some dude insisted with me that it MUST be a Deogen because it was so slow. I said no, its obviously a Thaye. We spent so much time in its ghost room, now its weak. I wait for it to hunt again, and it was even slower this time. Dude went out insisting it was a Deogen. He was wrong, it was a Thaye. Guess he spent more time farming this crap than actually playing the normal game the way its meant to be played
I honestly have no idea what the public side of Phasmophobia looks like, as I've never played it I doubt it's THIS strat that made the guy incorrectly identify the ghost, and it simply just being inexperience
@@Xarvinth I don't know why else the guy would simply not even consider the ghost being a Thaye just because it was slow. In this custom setting you will almost always be getting a prime Thaye so it will always be super fast. So if you get a Thaye you'll instantly know. But it's written in the journal, the Thaye will age rapidly in the presence of the living. The dude didn't even consider this. And he was high level (high 80 if I remember). So I think he must have been spamming this custom difficulty to get through the levels fast and got a wrong impression of the Thaye because of that.
Level doesn't always equal skill I'm still leaning towards the guy simply being inexperienced And even if he did spam this difficulty, the only person he's cheating, is himself@@IDyn4m1CI
@@Xarvinth Absolutely I agree. But 1) It would be VERY unlikely that this guy got to that lvl while playing normal games and never once encountered an aged Thaye in his play time. To get to that lvl playing normally, you would have to go through at least 200 contracts on Nightmare difficulty, maybe more. 2) Many new players are using this strat to unlock T3 items fast, and by doing so, getting a false impression of some of the ghosts. Like Thaye and Moroi being fast. They aren't always fast. That was not the first dude that I've encountered in my lobbies that was very surprised that the Thaye in our game was slow, he was just the most reluctant on agreeing with me.
Yeah, they're only cheating themselves for not putting in any real playtime (I'm not saying people should be doing this, I only posted it for fun and it blew up) If I were to do publics and someone has no idea what they're on about, I'd just go with what I know@@IDyn4m1CI
The Thaye's speed is fixed and will not change, even when in LOS The Thaye can only slow down, but you'd have to age it The Moroi gets faster the lower your sanity is, and it speeds up further, when you're in LOS
Mylings can be tough if your focus is on something else The Myling is quiet and generally won't make any sounds, not until it's within 12 meters of the player
@@Xarvinth i get that multiplier every match but the rewards are not the same.. with that 12.97x i get like 500$ bcs i get only 10$ for finding the ghost
That does sound odd, as I've never gotten less than like $2300 Could be that Kinetic rolled out a patch to neutralize custom contracts, but I wouldn't know, I haven't been able to play for about a week@@tibiboteanu8081
wraith's cant walk through salt during hunts but other ghosts can!, so put down some salt at the table, if it doesnt go off you have a wraith on your hands😄
You're right! That's absolutely a thing you can look out for! This here, was my first attempt at the challenge after not playing for maybe 3-4 months, so I just kind of went in with whatever I had and didn't think much of it haha
