To level up quickly or earn substantial money in Phasmophobia, the optimal strategy is to participate in the weekly challenges offered by Kinetic Games. These challenges present a variety of scenarios and conditions, so you may find yourself restricted in terms of the equipment you can use, or facing ghosts that possess super speed or hunt earlier than usual.
What is Phasmophobia's Slow and Steady Challenge
In this Phasmophobia challenge, participants have slightly less than a week to accomplish three ghost hunts. Those who emerge victorious are rewarded handsomely with a substantial XP boost and $5000 in-game currency, which can be spent on gear in the game's cumbersome store. The challenge will run from the 13th of November until the 20th of November. Set in the eerie environs of Camp Woodwind, this mission ups the ante with a modified professional difficulty level, ensuring all equipment is Tier 1.
The spectral adversary you face is hindered by a 50% reduction in speed, yet the stakes remain high as you navigate the haunting with a persistent 0% sanity level. Brace yourself for a chilling hunt where agility is key, and remember: the ghost's sluggish pace belies a seething rage.
What is Phasmophobia's Sanity Survival Challenge
The Sanity Survival challenge tasks players with locating a ghost at 10 Ridgeview Court with nightmare difficulty. Starting with only 75 sanity and contending with a malfunctioning breaker, participants are limited to Tier 1 items. While smudge sticks are off the table, you are permitted one crucifix and Tier 2 candles. In this Phasmophobia challenge, participants have slightly less than a week to accomplish three ghost hunts. Those who emerge victorious are rewarded handsomely with a substantial XP boost and $5000 in-game currency, which can be spent on gear in the game's cumbersome store.
What is Phasmophobia's Tortoise and the Hare challenge?
One specific challenge that may prove difficult to work out is the Tortoise and the Hare. In this challenge, players are given just under 7 days to complete three tasks, and successful completion rewards a massive amount of XP and $5000, which can be used to purchase equipment in the game's cumbersome store.
You might be curious about the specific details of the Tortoise and the Hare challenge. From our experience playing it, we can confirm that the ghost's speed is increased by about 25%, while your own speed is decreased by the same percentage.
Interestingly, the dynamics of the challenge can vary depending on the version Kinetic Games has set; for instance, last week, the ghost was slower, and the player was much faster. All the necessary equipment is available for this challenge, except for the lower-tier torches.
The challenge needs to take place at Grafton Farmhouse. All three evidence pieces are needed before you can successfully finish the challenge, and remember that you will need to do this three times before you unlock the XP and money rewards.
Have you given it a go yet? You'll have just 7 days to complete this week's challenge.
