What about peepers? Peepers can help with chase because of lower speed and you can easily camp near a survivor with seeing rescue or kiters nearby Also a very smart Barmaid won’t mix at the start. A smart barmaid will wait for the reasons you mentioned and they will wait till they complete a cipher so they won’t have that debuff that really hurts her cipher
PopgoestheBendy i’ve never been a fan of peepers, but it is something that could work 😃 try it out for yourself and see if you like it, but with the upcoming nerf well it is going to be a little difficult 🤭 and yes your right about barmaid as well 🙂
Morning Star it works well though I haven’t been a fan of Blink until I started to learn Joseph, it’s good and I don’t run peepers anymore. I only do it on Robbie and what about the camera trick with Jump Card? Where it positions your camera in the direction of a survivor when using jump card.
PopgoestheBendy camera trick with jump card? Hhmmm tell me more about that I didn’t quite get the question & yea with the peepers nerf it’s not as effective. Using it on robbie is good tho, it helps when survivors cut your line of sight 🙂
Top Photographer here I come! Seriously, thank you very much for this. I thought I knew the 'basics' of Joseph but watching this I learned lots of new things. The strategies and the details to keep in mind (like the crows thing, I always ignored them!) were very helpful too! I'm going to put into practice and work really hard to master him. Again, thank Morningstar ❤
Queenie there’s a lot to joseph considering you’re dealing with two worlds so yess it takes a long while to notice things 😁 even now i’m still learning 🙂 and if you ever pick up anything i’d love to hear 😃❤️❤️
im SO glad you covered crows, it was something i noticed not too long ago but wasnt completely sure on the logic of it. this guide was so helpful wah tysm!!!
ghostiddy crows are tricky because they kinda blend into the background so you don’t notice them lol but pay attention because they can clutch out games sometimes 😄 and no problem so happy you enjoyed it ❤️❤️
GIRL this is some high key dedication. I don't even play killer but the video is so well put together I'll watch it! I always fear photographer mains sdlkdskljkj
Acción thank you soo much 😃 yea this video wasn’t easy, a lot to go over so i’m glad you’re liking it 😁 don’t be too scared of photos tho, they’re easy to kite, and if they mess up their blink then OOFF it’s downhill lol
Hey there. Amazing guide. Subbed. I just started to play Photographer a couple of days ago and so far I'm enjoying it. My favourite trick/thing to do in mid-game is to open the photo world, look for those wiggling ciphers in the real world. Go to that cipher via photo world. Position yourself properly. Use his first ability/card thingy to jump into real-world and press attack button asap. There's a high chance you'll end up terror shocking the decoding survivor x) Not sure if this trick works in higher tiers but it certainly works in low tiers.
ayyee that's a good strat 😃 It's hard to do that in higher tiers considering people usually check in and out of photo world, I used to do that a lot when photo was fairly new. Glad you're liking him so far! I'm sure you'll get onto the leaderboards with him 🤩
@@midnight6783 hi there! I used to be around 40th~ joswph sets up cameras as his ability! When he starts up the camera, where the survivors were in that moment in time have a clone in the photoworld. If you hit the clone in the photoworld, it damages the survivors in the real world when the camera ends. For example, I find a survivor in photo world. If I only hit them once, because of Joseph’s 1.5x damage, when photo world ends, they become a one-hit ! Every time photo world ends, cipher machines also revert back 50% of what they were, which slows down decoding. Since this comments was a while ago idk if you will see this, but if you have any questions lmk!
Holy shit. Morningstar has a voice?! In all seriousness, thanks for making this video! I main Photographer and its hard to find any recently-made guides on using him. Your voice is super relaxing to listen to as well.^^
sղαԵcհҽժ had to use my voice, if not the editing would take YEARS for this guide with only words 😅 and yess I had been meaning to make this video for y’all, I feel the same way with the guides. They missed alot of information for photo and I was like naahh we need a complete guide because there’s so much to him 😁 expect to hear my voice more from now on 😺❤️
I know you’ve been asking for tips and here they are 😜 & honestly seers don’t really have much except tanking hits, what i’m really weak to are cowboys since those I NEVER see and i’m not used to them. Seers tho just make the kite longer 🥴
Thank you so much for this guide! I'm a new Joseph player and after this, I had straight 4 man wins for 12 games ;D I'm still not as good and probably won't be but I can't possibly thank you more❤️
Thank you so much for this, you are the best! ❤️ All the effort you've put into this project really stands out. This is literally the best Identity V guide I’ve seen. Impeccable work! PD: you have a nice voice btw!
Ashe thank you so much for your comments they’re really sweet 🥺 hopefully I have time to work on some more guides for other characters that I play =^_^=
In the jumpescare method , knowing the fact that the cipher machines' poles would start shaking when a cipher machine is being decoded makes it much easier to find survivors and surprise them , another tip : the more the pole shakes the closer the cipher machine is to finishing
Xx_Dadaplayz_xX x yea the wiggling does work 😃 can be risky considering survivors might be jumping in & out of photo world, but it definitely does work on some of them, nice tip 😁
I’m so late to this, but I just wanted to say thank you for this blessing of a video 😭 This was the first guide video I found when I started playing Joseph, and overall learned a lot! I’m really low rank since.. rank matches scare me- but in quick matches I often win (unless I’m playing friendly), thanks to this! Love the small map persona build too- it’s so godly 💔 and I absolutely love time jump I’m so glad I learned about it sooner than later
I'm so happy you found this video! 😃 Rank matches can be pretty scary, but I'd say just go for it! Just treat them as normal games and have fun :) hey as long as you can get time jump down then you can do pretty much everything with joseph 🤩
This video is so well done that I, a Violinist main who has no business touching Photographer, couldn't stop watching it with a lot of attention lmao Joseph is such a good character both design and gameplay wise, no wonder he's so popular. He has one of the most creative and dynamic mechanics in the game!
thank you so much for the guide! i just started playing as a hunter since i bought photographer a few days ago, but using time jumps are still a little bit confusing for me. your vid is super detailed as it clears out a lot of confusion^^ love this guide!
Time jumps can be tricky, it takes a while to get used to them and even when you know how to use it, there's still a chance it'll go wrong lol. Glad you enjoyed it and good luck on your games!
I used to be a HUGE Joseph main but after I fell out with idv I haven't really been playing a lot. I'm planning to get back into it and start playing him again due to the risk of my current main getting banned in events
Dude this was so good! I literally religiously studied this, made a whole document about everything you mentioned! I played IDV back in 2019 but I was only a young child then so I had only used my acc for maybe a month? So I just didn’t use it for nearly 5 years! Now I’m getting back into the game and grinded so hard for Joseph I got him in a day and a half, only then realising i had absolutely no clue how to play him. I’ve been looking up tutorials and tips for the past week but no one has explained it like you did! Also I would like to mention something I heard from a high ranked Joseph main. Apparently you can tell which cipher is being decoded by looking closely at the outline. If there’s someone working on it the outline will slightly flicker so you should look at it through a darker surface. Pretty sure Mech’s robot also makes an flicker but also when there’s a prisoner I’m pretty sure this method becomes a bit untrustworthy. I’m going to try this method out as soon as possible to see if it actually works because I’m not sure myself. Great video!
Sorry I just saw this, honestly just studying is what helps best to memorize spawns. Going into custom mode allows you to see every single spawn on all maps which is so helpful 😅 but also creating a route for you helps as well. If you can find 2-3 survivors at the start of every match then you’re off to a great start 🙂
@@morningstar314 Thanks a lot for the advice! I found out about custom mode recently, now in the process of memorizing it all... Lots of work but worst it!
Ying Shu aww of course 😄 hope you’re matches are going well in ranked, don’t get discouraged if you ever lose a match it’s really hard to use photo in games nowadays 😁 best of luck ❤️❤️
Thanks to you, I will become the best Joseph ever. Thank you so much, this is so brilliant and complete, I finally understood how to properly use my pretty photo boi
Hey Thank you for this Guide It really helped me But I'm Confuse in The 33:57 "Time Jump Strategy" like how can I use it while not looking at my back while I'm far away from Chaired Survivor should I Swipe my Finger Down or Up I'm Confuse I was talking about his Spinning photo or Something.. 😂
Well the way you control your camera is by moving the button to where you control “time jump”, if you don’t move that then the camera is going to move in the direction to where the button is drifting closest to 😅
i love this. at one point i was so good at joseph but then i kind of reached a limit and eventually survivors starting beating me, and i didn’t feel like i really understood how to play characters to the fullest ability. Watching this video gave so many helpful tips, hope to be an expert like you someday :P trying to get my grind in this summer
Lol honestly it took me a while to pick up on everything as well, even had to get some tips from other players that I didn't know about. Good luck on your matches! :D
I am very greatful for this video because now I understand Photoboi a little bit more, so, now is only time for practice. Thank you very much for all the effort and time you used to create this because it is really helpful.
FINALLY A PHOTO GUIDE 👁👄👁 ngl i'm kinda surprised bcs this video is loooooonng but i love it tho. u explain everything very well🥺 thank you for the guide🥰
Altheá haha it is a little long, if i’m gonna cover a character I have to go through EVERYTHING 😃 and of course althea 😄❤️ hopefully I get to work on bloody queen sometime soon, we’ll see 🙂
I tried Joseph for the first time when he could be used for a limited time and I really liked him >< I'm very close to getting enough clues to unlock a hunter and I'm choosing Joseph! Tysm for this guide ^^
Yata_ _Gun hhhmm i’d say wait, because azrael is such an old skin 😅 BUT, if you don’t like his skin pack then you can just go for azrael, so i’d say to hold off until they release what his new skin will look like 😃
Ngoc Anh Nguyen yyyyeeessss, I had to go over EVERYTHING. As a hound survivor I’ve played against photo’s that don’t use their ability AT ALL the whole game. I hope they find this guide and helps them understand how to use the character. Nonetheless it’s a guide for everyone in all tiers 😄
Wow thank you so much for this video!! May I ask something.. what does "banning" mean in rank match? I'm s bit confused about this term here.. ^^;;, thank you!!
Of course :D Usually when you get to a certain tier in rank you're able to ban a character. So survivors and hunters can ban one character from each side that they'd rather not play against lol. Once you reach legendary mode you get the ban option :D
I'm watching this again because I want to main him one day XD but I still don't know how to play him correctly (and I feel blind specially in camera world lmao) Now that we have painter, should we use desperate fight or excitement instead of blink?
It's all good, if you watch my gameplays you'll see how blind I am lol but you'll get the hang of him just keep playing him and you'll be good 🙂 and honestly painter can be troublesome, but i'd still bring blink. In the case you find someone else, then blink will be better over excitement. Just my take so feel free to pick what you like. Also painter will get that nerf so shouldn't be too bad like he is now lol 😅
at around 31:00, i call that tactic clickbaiting jokes aside thanks for making this guide!! my friends always ask me how i learned joseph (former a badge;;; hunter ranked is exhausting to me tho so i dropped it) and i never know what to say! this is very helpful :) thank you morning star!!
Yyooo I feel you there, hunter really is stressful 😩 A badge is so good tho 😃 damn you were really out here playing against high tiers that’s awesome and no problem you know if you have any questions feel free to ask and i’ll be here 😄❤️
You could do that as well 😃 This build is built to what I like so you can feel free to invest it into hunt if you'd like. But yes it would also work well here 😁
To be honest they haven't made any huge changes to joseph since I made this guide. The only thing is that you're not able to see grafitis of survivors in the opposite world. That's all :D everything else still applies. Once joseph gets a rework i'll make a guide once I get used to him more, so you should be good for now! ^_^
@@morningstar314 Okay!! Thank you so much!! I might've miss it when you've said something about personas and map, but do you use the small map persona even on maps such as Arms and China? Or are both of them considered as big map persona?
@@c.c.0396 I would use the small map persona on arms considering there's a lot of pallets lol I haven't played much on the new map, but judging by the layout i'd probably go with a big map persona. Still need to play more on there :)
ok i think im understanding a lil but how do you know where the guy you hooked in the dream/time world thing is gonna be down cause seriously i can never find him
Honestly there really isn’t a way, in my experience I just hope to get lucky. And it also kills time 😁 If you chair one person and get hits off the rest then it’ll make the game easier since they’re one hit now 🙂
I've seen it be mentioned before but do you know if jospehs hit box actually does change depending on the skin? If so, what skins have the smallest and biggest hit box?
Honestly Joseph isn't much of a win character, I haven't played him as much as I used to and even when I would I'd have a 60% win rate. It's not impossible, but he does take a lot of effort and good plays to get the win :O
I seriously don't understand the debuff on movement speed provided by Wanted Order. Level 1 provides a 4% debuff and level 3 provides a 0% debuff? Like, wth?
It's just the icon that shows up on the top left of your screen. There is no noise to indicate that it's active. So make sure you're looking at the top left to see the ear icon pop up 🙂
Bored you don’t have to use my persona, but it is the one I find most helpful towards my games 😁 i’ve seen photo’s use trump card build and they win, it’s up to you. Try both out and see which one works for you 😃
Omg sorry for the late response you probably already figured it out lol but you can get it from the store it's called "Palace of silence" and you need to buy echos with real money lol it's pricey :(
Dude this was so good! I literally religiously studied this, made a whole document about everything you mentioned!
