Jinn breaking a breaker
I was playing a game of phasmo, when the ghost broke the breaker. We had not turned any lights on. Later we found out it was a jinn. Last i checked, a jinn it not able to do that.

You're half-correct actually; a Jinn cannot NORMALLY turn off the breaker, at least... not directly.

What they can do however is turn lights on themselves... and that can overload the breaker and turn it off indirectly.

So the question I must now ask: was this on one of the larger maps? Because I could easily see it hitting a lot of light switches without you realizing it on like Sunny Meadows.

we were playing tanglewood

Was this just it turning off, or was it like sparking and you couldn't turn it back on?

Cause I'll tell you right now that if it was the latter... someone was probably cheating in that game - no ghost can make the breaker completely inoperable like that... usually that's a Custom Setting you choose to start with.

As for the former, could very well be just a freak bug, the Jinn itself turning on too many lights without you realizing it.... could also likewise be cheating as well to mess with you. Too many possibilities... not enough evidence sadly - would need some proof like a picture of the fuse box, or some video

it was sparking, and i am pretty sure it was normal proffesional mode.

None of the official difficulty settings have the breaker as broken, so I would agree with Wolflink in that its either someone cheating, or a real bug that hasn't been reported yet. If it happens, please get a video and send it in to the discord as a bug report.

This just happened to me last night. It was a private lobby so cheating wasn't in the question. I'm not sure what caused it

That happened to me too, was playing with randoms, when the breaker box went off and we couldnt turn it on again. It was also sparking and emitting sparking sounds. I thought a ghost could do that, but found nothing in the wiki.

None of the ghosts can do that. You were playing with a hacker. Or it was monkey paw.

my bet is on the monkey paw, "i wish for activity" , that wish do set the breaker to broken

Someone broke the breaker with the monkey paw.
