Oni vs Yurei?

[Player1]

On Nightmare these are my dreaded two ghosts that I seem to struggle with. I know the Yurei test, where you trap it in a room with smudge. However, that isn't a surefire way and there's a ton of rooms where its very inconvenient for testing. Oni are supposedly very active but my Yurei seems to be just as active.

There's a new "tell" that the Yurei gives with the new update that makes it really easy to identify.

Usually with any ghost during a ghost event, the lights will turn off and all doors in the room/area will slam shut(also an easy way to tell it's a ghost event and not a hunt).
With the new update, the Yurei now has a new unique ability:

The Yurei will now do "unique ghost events" where it will slam all doors wherever the ghost currently is, but it will not turn the lights off or manifest itself(at least in my experience). If you are near where the Yurei does this it will also shred your sanity(way more than other ghosts).

Pretty much if I ever notice any doors around me randomly slam shut(different from a ghost interacting with a door), and the lights don't go off, AND I don't see or hear the ghost, I'm certain it's a Yurei. If you're not on nightmare, and are nearby when this happens, you can also go out to the van after to confirm it's a Yurei on the sanity board

Thanks, that's very good information, I will definitely try to look out for that if I believe that the ghost could be a yurei. Is there any unique things that the Oni does that is distinct to it?

Besides generally being more active than other ghosts, I'm pretty sure the Oni can do "super throws" where it can throw items farther than other ghosts.. I have yet to notice it though

I've read something like that in the journal, I've never noticed it either. Getting ghosts to throw the things you want is so difficult also.

They seem to have given all the ghosts different tells... but I'm not sure the Oni's tell has been found.

Insym did a video on the Yurei's and Banshee's tells... and Psycho has done Shade's, Banshee's, and Mare's tells.

But I don't think anything else has been uncovered for sure yet.

Incidentally:

Shade
- won't do as much activity (knocking stuff over and opening doors)
- will do the "Woosh" airball event more commonly
- will do manifestation ghost events more commonly
- can't hunt in a room with multiple people
- can't hunt above 35% sanity

Mare
- can hunt in dark rooms at 60% sanity
- can't hunt in light rooms at more than 40% sanity
- can't turn on lights
- small chance to automatically turn off a light when you switch it on
- does the light bulb explosion event more often

Banshee
- Will choose and target one player
- No longer early hunts / I don't know what they got to replace this
- Will do singing ghost events more often
- Has a unique scream that can only be heard by paramic
