The Phasmophobia Audio Only Challenge is probably one of the most painful and tedious challenges out there. There is no control over sanity.

Do you think this challenge is painful?
Correction: T3 paramic can now hear things accross floors, kinda forgot about that addition since I never use the paramic xD
I got this one minute after uploading.
First!
Chat equals eyes? About time!
The Tier 3 Paramic can hear above or below floors! Not just the same floor
This is the worst challenge of all…Sanity drain is so very slow.. to find 2 of the 3 ghost I had to wait half an hours, each game just for it to hunt… And the last, well, it used his ability of closing door, so I was out of there.. lol
Around 2 weeks ago a had a polti in sunny meadows that did 3 explosions back to back with a bit delay on the third one, on the 3 red buckets room.
It was very loud😂
What the hell is Psycho talking about while all 3 Para Mic tiers can pick sound on multiple floors, the Para Mic T3 is the only with visual indication of which floor the sound happened
o7 my spicy potato!
But the paramic, it does record sounds from downstairs, is it not? I know that when the ghost hunts I can hear it. As well with ghost whispers. If it is downstairs there's an icon arrow pointing down next to the sound source icon.
My son is 5 and loves this game. His favorite ghost is the Poltergeist because it “does the boom,” and when he saw your first game, he got mad because we’ve never had a double explosion. 😂 I have no idea what happened with the Obake… she was clearly on the other side, so walking through the gurney is the only explanation I can think of. I had an Obake last week cut a corner short and walk through the wall, so I’m wondering if it’s a bug. 🤷🏼♀️
Great content as usual, Psycho. ❤️
Me and the bois just finished this challenge and its a whole lot better than the brownstone one sometimes you can get some crap mimic 50/50s tho
This challenge was a nightmare because of how slow it was. Mine were: (Oni, Oni, and Hantu).
Why didn't they include the music box for a cursed item? It makes sense to me!
Watching this while waiting sanity to go down
Very difficult but GGs Psycho, u got there at the end! To answer your question, yes I had this ghost type's ability many times when I used to play, very fun and my favourite ghost ability, it just look awesome to see.
And RIP if anyone ever have a Mare in a room that doesn't have a light switch XDDDD
As for Cursed Possession, I think sanity drain is very slow because as long as ur sanity is high, the ghost have very little interaction rate, so Audio Only, would be very painful, but if need help with sanity dropping, the lowest sanity drop cursed possession would be Voodoo doll, 5% drain per pin and 10% for the Heart, it's very fair and u wouldn't be at 0% sanity after using all of the pins so. Voodoo would be a good option. Monkey Paw is amazing as in almost all of wishes doesn't cost sanity, but wishing for sanity take u to 50% so that's a bit OP cus most ghosts hunt at 50%. If u got the sanity to low, and ghost would keep on hunting then it'd be difficult to try to get lack of evidence especially if u got EMF5 and can't seem to figure out Jinn or Goryo, and it keep on hunting that would be the absolute worse combo. So I'm 50-50 on the idea of Cursed Possession in this one, but they could have up the Ghost Event chances to Medium, so ghosts would do events more often then u can walk to it to drain it, Ghost events also help u to figure out or narrow down the ghosts like Banshee with Singing Event and u touches it, drains 15%, and Oni drains 20%, so that secondary behaviour would help us to figure it out with less evidence items.
Jesus christ this was the worst challenge ever. I had 2 Jinns and a myling. At least the myling was easy because of the amount of whispers.
when I was trying to get a good clip of a polter explosion a few days ago it practically only did them 2-3 times back to back, not sure if it's intentional or if they're bugged lol
Idk how someone could play the game this long and not know that paramic 3 can hear through floors. It literally has an arrow for up or down when the sound comes from another floor.
I haven't done this yet, but I predict that it's going to take me at least 3 hours and that I'm gonna make random guesses because I'll get bored of waiting for it to do something.
This challenge REALLY needs a cursed item to force a hunt or drop sanity.
There are too many possibilities to have to guess the ghost.
The T3 paramic is ESSENTIAL to finding the ghost room.
I finished it in 1 hour (got Obake wrong, then Banshee (wail), Hantu (no evidence found in solo at all), Demon (hunted))
This is one of those challenges where you should get more reward for doing it solo. Last week's challenge was the same way. If I'm doing these challenges solo I should get more reward than a group.
Im dreading this challenge since im a noob in that game 😅
8:30 when you were between a polty or mare, and with no light switches in the room, could you wait for a hunt and check your sanity? The mare should hunt at high sanity if the lights are off, right? or was that removed?
My daughter and I are not expert hunters by any stretch but we've completed the last 5 challenges so we figured we'd give this on a try. After a LOT of sweeping with the parabolics we located the ghost room on the right side near the courtyard. Placed what little equipment we had, then I sent her out to look for orbs through my headcam. No orbs, no response on spirit box (and I know it was in the room with me), and it threw the book without writing (which was fun to find on the floor LITTERED with books). The only evidence we got was DOTS which she saw in the truck and I saw in person. Ruling out Box, Orbs, and Writing. but checking off DOTS gave us Goryo or Oni. And since I saw the DOTS in person… Oni. One down, two to go…
This isn't a technically difficult challenge, but it can take a very long time to discover the ghost identity while you wait for your sanity to drop.
Had an easy oni (sanity loss on ghost event), an easy yokai (harassed it on spirit box until it early hunted), and a really stubborn mare that took 30 minutes just to get my sanity low enough for it to hunt at 60%. The music box would've been really nice for this challenge.
mare should have ability to turn off flashlights, that would be fun 🔦 maybe uv too
