EMF 5 During a Hunt.
I assumed EMF readings during a hunt meant nothing. It was intended as just the magnetic fields going crazy because the ghost became somewhat corporeal. Is this correct?

All i know is that the ghost can cause emfs to go nuts just like lights during hunts.

Yes, the EMF readings during a hunt are mainly to provide a sense of fear. However, you will not receive EMF 5 from it even from a ghost with such evidence.

Yeah from what I can tell, you shouldn't be getting EMF 5 during a hunt at all. If you do it might be a bug. That said, the ghost can mess with doors and stuff during the hunt, so if you can an EMF 5 immediately after the hunt ends, it is probably a real EMF 5 from a touched door or something you are standing next to.

that's bs. you can literally get emf 5 during hunts. i've seen it before multiple times. if this was a so-called "bug", the developer would've patched it ages ago. but it wasn't 'patched' because 1) it isn't a bug, 2) it was implemented.

Actually, you can't. During a hunt, the EMF will fluctuate wildly from 1-4, but it will never hit 5.

If the ghost is an EMF 5 ghost, it can fluctuate up to level 5. Had it happen on a play through.

It makes confirm/deny on EMF 5 evidence a little easier (though not guaranteed) by monitoring an EMF during the hunt.

Yes and no

No: The emf level goes crazy when a ghost hunt is active. The emf will only go between 1-4 at all times (unless its a emf lvl 5 ghos which ill get to) So it has no meaning dureing the hunt

Yes: Dureing a ghost hunt it can go crazy and if the ghost has EMF LVL 5 as evidince Then dureing a ghost hunt Its worth checking (not sure if the item reviels your location or not but as far as im aware no) If it reaches EMF lvl 5 its evidince otherwise Its pointless and you can throw it away and nock any ghost off the list if it has EMF lvl 5.

Also this includes to other items aswell (this is speculation and what freinds told me) Other items like the spirit box can also be used dureing a ghost hunt and looking at the ghost with it Will garrintee an response if it has spirit box as evidince. and going by this fact i also assume the ghost orb is also visable dureing a ghost hunt

I did kinda go off topic BUt yea unless It touches EMF lvl 5 while the EMF detector goes crazy Then it means nothing (emf lvl 1-4 means nothing and is imposible to get as a value unless its evidince)

Yea I think I've seen emf 5 during hunts before, but probably that got fixed/patched.
I just tested it with the Spirit/Shade and only received 1-4 readings.

Yea dureing a hunt It dose matter IF theres an emf lvl 5 to work with in the begining. (this is speculation) Theres a rule where its forced to be within 1-4 no matter what Unless the ghost is Banshee, Jinn, Oni, Phantom, Revenant or a shade being the ghosts with EMF lvl 5 as evidince

I've never seen it hit 5 either. However, if you can find an oujia board, you can easily confirm it. If it's an EMF 5 ghost, it will instantly hit max after a successful question.

Well sometimes during a hunt i also noticed the red light for EMF 5 going on when like switching items or walking not sure what i did it is not always but can happen sometime.
