What does the crucifix do exactly?

[Cassius]

I placed it down and a hunt began, the ghost walked over it and killed me.
Bruh.

[Gweenie]

Prevents the ghost within 3 metres of it or 6 if a banshee from starting a hunt, if they aren't in range of it when they attempt to start one, they will go into a hunt no matter what

[Triggerhappy]

There have been so many times where we've been standing right on one, and it starts a hunt anyway. They seem totally useless.

i dont know before this update for halloween the crux always prevent the haunting for me but now it doesnt prevent it more frequently. but i place the both on the floor with enuf space with each other as i used too.

When you have the Crucifix there's a chance it can stop a hunt. You may have to do it before the hunt, but I place it down during a hunt just in case. The Crucifix doesn't have a 100% success rate, meaning that it doesn't always work all the time. I'm pretty sure the Crucifix has a max times of being used when working, which is two.

they only prevent the ghost from starting hunts within their range. hunts can still start outside of their range. the crucifix does not deter an already hunting ghost, or end a hunt.

and yes, it will vanish after it prevents two hunts.

Each crucifix prevents 2 hunts within its radius. It only works if the ghost tries to start its hunt while it is inside the radius. The ghost can still enter the radius of the crucifix if it has already started its hunt and can start its hunt outside the radius freely.

In the neighborhood house maps, the a single crucifix is enough to cover most rooms (typically excluding the garage or kitchen/dining room if it has a large one). In the farmhouses, high school, and asylum, even both crucifix's will not be enough to cover most rooms. So you can't guarantee your safety.

You aren't supposed to just stand on them in any room, you are supposed to drop them on the ghosts room/space to prevent hunts from starting.

It has to be placed in the room the ghost is in to work before the hunt.
