already seeing prestige 2 people

[kx]

so far I've seen 2 people already at prestige 2+ in my time of playing. one was a day after the update (just prestige 2) and the other was yesterday. my question is how the hell do you get prestige IV level 92 in 4 days????|| edit: when I made this discussion I didnt realize that speedrunning was a thing. I went to the phas discord and looked through the screenshots to see twitch speedrunners are already at prestige 17. and they stream them getting all of the prestiges so it isnt cheating either. the staff also said anyone above 17 is definitely cheating.

I can believe it. There is a Custom Mode setting that will grant you 14x - 16x times rewards. Most I won in a match was around $4000. Not sure how my friend did it, but they won over $5000 in a custom match.

If you can master the maximum reward in a short time frame, you can fly through the ranks.
I been seeing a few 20 Prestige people lately.

If you get one of them in your game, have them pay for everything.

nah it exist easy ways with save spots again... 10x+ 3 missions are mostly 1000 easy and fast XP again. if you get the ghost direct this are 2000-3000 XP

but higher prestige can be cheater too. so be aware of this.

even with x10 exp, is suspicious, if u do missions is more time, if not is just 2 min, u still can fail x10 mean no evidences, just hunt and behaviour, and exp up each level. Then, they played for full days, or they are cheating. It would be not weird, in a comment in youtube is aw a guy saying that he would first cheat and then play normal MP with tier 3 items

Maximum multiplier is 15x, but yeah, your point stands. If you're good enough at the game, you can handle the hardest possible difficulty settings, and burn through levels.

That being said, it's still quite the grind.

lol. no. that's literally impossible. It takes 8-10 hours with 100% success rate to just get to level 20. Anyone that's prestiged twice is cheating.

Sure, if you're playing on a custom difficulty with a score multiplier lower than 1.0x...

I highly suggest learning more about the game to play on higher difficulties for faster xp. If you think it takes 10 hours for a few levels, it means that you're not playing efficiently or effectively.

Insym and Psycho posted a video on their youtube of their custom games to maximise levelleling if it helps.

I agree with you on that.
But let me explain my case.

My friends where playing together this Friday - till this very day today in 24/7 mode. They were doing a customization map with around 12x and were guessing the ghost correctly on the very first hunt. They barely went to bed (not joking). One of them stayed up for over 36 hours straight playing this game and then crashed for couple hours, and then was right back on the game.

The whole thought is unrealistic. But I seen people play this in a religious way where they set a grinding goal to achieve a certain prestige within a certain time.
No longer playing for fun. They are playing in single mode and private mode with friends to rank up extremely fast.

Yes we will see people playing in lobby doing the basic ghost hunt (which is why they cannot reach level hundred), but they are having fun. The true people that are touching the higher prestige is staying in the Private lobbies grinding or single mode until they hit a height that they are happy with. It is completely insane to think about, but to each their own.

skill issue


took me less than an hour to get 20 levels

It’s not impossible.

There are quite a few people who are prestige level 10 and speedrun campwoodwind 13x and guess 50% of the time.

It’s not hard to do and doesn’t take much knowledge at all. Just know basic knowledge and have a group and it’s ez af.

People are literally staying up 24 hours a day and getting 6 hours of sleep before doing this for another 24 hours.

Edit: I could easily be prestige 20 right now if I had the time but I don’t. That’s how easy it would be.

Well you see the problem with the game is hackers, so we should reset progression and not stop hacking again.

This update wasn't designed around stopping cheaters changing their funny level that essentially means nothing.

[NotReallyMyName]

Look for the campsite cheese on youtube, should be able to get prestiege after a day of playing. You get about 13x multiplier and the investigation takes up to two minute, though it is not that accurate and you need to know your ghosts and their mechanics.

just played with a prestige 3 that didnt know wraith is normal speed

[poopacheese]

hacks obviously

[Watcher Rat]

As some people noted, Insym's "ghost looping" custom basically nets 13x rewards, and if you're good at IDing on no evidence, you can fly up in levels...a friend of mine already hit Prestige 2, though he got bored of it and went back to doing normal runs with me after. Several people are already at max prestige just from spamming that custom over and over, because it's instant advancement (if you do all 3 objectives, it's about $4650 per run), and they don't care about just grinding the levels.

It's a personal choice, and the rewards may be nerfed in the future, but there are plenty of people getting up there that are doing it legitimately just by using gamemodes like that.

with the level guides which insym and co. make is that no surprise.
if you know the ghosts extremely well can you just do this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPgizYuP8SM&ab_channel=Insym
he explains it and shows the settings for it etc.

so, if you dont know the ghosts well ... will you have probably trouble with this but... since a well known phasmophobia streamer made a guide like this, use peoples it ofcourse.

you could get with this method within 2~3 hours to your first lv 100 and are probably rich afterwards too ... which you need to be due to the item uprade costs xD.

Sorry but that's not possible.
