Is there a way to get out while a hunt is happening?

[Lis ♡]

Me and my bf played phasmo today. both low level and only starting out so no smudges or other stuff to prevent hunts or stop them(also no pills to regain sanity ;;). The Ghosts were the Twins and we both had low sanity, at the end we hit 0% and the Ghosts just sort of perma hunted without a break and without the possiblility to escape since there were 2 ghosts that were hunting too frequently to escape. Is there any way to survive such a situation or is the only thing you can do to just die and accept your defeat?

You should always have a guess circled in your journal on what you think the ghost is, and if the match/round seems like you can't stay in the house any further or you don't want to risk death and just end it, go back in the truck and click the keypad to end the mission early. The biggest source of normal XP & money you can get as a new player is correctly identifying or guessing the ghost, and you aren't penalized or punished for being wrong. In theory you could end a mission in 5 seconds by making an immediate guess with no evidence, but you only have a 1 in 24 chance of being right so it's a waste(unless you're really experienced and doing the custom rules exploit right now).

Leaving early might feel bad, especially if you're wrong, but you won't lost the item loadout in your truck so it saves you money and it's better than dying.

Try to progressively hide closer to the door and then when a hunt stops try to get out.

Otherwise no...there's no way to escape the house/building until after the hunt.

There is only one but it is RNG based - you can use the monkey paw and say "I wish to leave", which will open the front door even during a hunt... BUT your speed will be cut temporarily upon making the wish. You also I think need sanity for it so it may not work all the time.

Without the paw... there is no legitimate way out during a hunt, but there is a sort of grace period; the ghost has to wait a set time after a hunt before starting the next one, so that time window is your opportunity to escape.

Best advice is to turn on the lights near your hiding spot before a hunt begins... when the hunt is over all house lighting will be forced off... so you can use that to know when it's time to start running for the door ASAP.

Kind of the second option there. There is a chance for the ghost to continue hunting even after a single kill with really low sanity from my understanding.

Your best bet is to try and break sight and find a hiding spot in a closet or one of the misc spots that were put in place. These usually look like stacked boxes or boards placed to the side that provide a small square like cubicle for you to crouch in (Example: The kid's room in Tanglewood Drive has a hiding spot near the crib). You also want to make sure that ALL electronics are turned off (light included) and your mics muted.

A strategy my wife and I use when we play together:
ONE person brings all the extra items first off (We alternate depending on who wants to do evidence). At the start, we both go it to find the bone (pick up after taking picture) and cursed object for pictures. She also goes room to room with the video camera to check for orbs while I look around for the room using other methods. I usually use the tier 1 thermometer as the ghost room is obvious as the red line steadily drops to lower temps.

If the person doing the investigating dies, ya lose nothing!

The ghost cannot perma hunt, there is a 20-25 second cooldown between hunts, the best way to see if a hunt ended is to either check if you can flip a light switch (if you can't it is still hunting) or if you turned any house lights *on* they will turn *off* after a hunt has ended

The Twins is not two ghosts.

There is a 20 second break between hunts, at a minimum. You just need to pay attention to when the hunt ends and run for it. There are some situations that are very rough, like if you have a ghost in the lobby on sunny meadows and you have slow speed/sprint off. Though in most houses with normal player speed, you shouldn't have trouble getting out of the house.

It's two ghosts, just they can't both be hunting at the same time. It alternates between a fast twin and a slow twin. They can interact with things at the same exact time too, but in separate rooms.

The Twins is not two ghosts.

It is one ghost with two interaction radiuses.

Haven't you been told once already to stop spreading misinformation?

[Myth Alric]

It is a nitpick some people have. Code wise the game only has one physical 'ghost' roaming around, so for example, you can never get two motion sensors at once, or have it step in salt in both places at once. That said the code is designed to simulate there being two ghost, with it throwing items from two locations and being able to hunt from either location(and speed being different based on which one).

Obviously there are no real ghosts in the game at all, it is just code. So it is just a matter of perspective, if you consider it one or two ghost. Either is honestly fine.

Hi.

I suggest getting help from the in-game tutorial to explore more about ghosts and the basic Phasmophobia mechanics. Seek tips from experienced players and third-party source guides.

FALSE.

- There is only one "ghost" entity with The Twins.
- It has a normal interaction radius and a large interaction radius. It CAN and WILL use both interaction radiuses simultaneously.
- The Twins only affects the temperature of the room it is actually in.
- The Twins only gives Spirit Box evidence from its true location.
- The Twins only checks for Crucifixes from its true location.
- The Twins may choose to teleport to the site of its last "large interaction radius" interaction after a hunt begins. IF IT DOES, it gains a speed boost.

These are not "nitpicks", these are facts. Please learn them.

Did you not read what I said? I said there was only one physical ghost location and you replied that I am wrong, because there is only one physical ghost location. You literally just repeated what I said and phrased it slightly different. None of that changes that it is designed to simulate two ghosts though.

he very clearly quoted the part he disagreed with.
