The Phasmophobia Audio Only weekly challenge is here! It provides us with extra audio equipment but less evidence items for sunny meadows! This might turn out to be hard for some.

Did you struggle with this challenge?
The Sound sensor radius' have to be bugged, they are not consistent at all. I thought they would scale different between map sizes sure, but its not even that. The original small maps (houses) have their own scaling, the two campsites share their own scaling, prison has its own, high school has its own, and Sunny Meadows is closer to small house maps. Its wild.

Thank you for the weekly videos and explanations. Outside of the door issue, the challenge would probably fall to pure luck for most casual players; largest map, happen upon the ghost, randomly and if it feels like making noise. — I can't imagine how frustrating the game may be to new console players, since most of the "need to know mechanics" are not taught in-game. Assuming there is not a complete overhaul of the training and store for console, the only viable source of up-to-date information is from the content creators.
This one was painful ngl. The inability to drain sanity was awful. Got bamboozled by a goryo and a mimic 😩
Edit: IoI my last ghost was also a Deo and it took next to no time to guess
I ended up looking for an open door. Failing that, I looked for a room with Freezing Breath.
Even after finding the ghost room, the limited equipment to get evidence sometimes left me with a list of ghosts that I couldn't easily eliminate.
You can get Ghost Orbs in multiplayer via the T1 headcams.
But you CANNOT rule out Freezing at all.
Bro I just got the gold throphy and said I'm never doing this map again and now they do this 🤣
there was a D.O.T.S in 30:16 if you look up
Not sure if this has been tested yet but can a phantom show up in dots pictures? or does it only disappear in ghost events?
They could've made it harder by locking the weather to snow to prevent using the breath to find the ghost room
For an "audio only" challenge, I think it would've been a lot more fun and fitting to have the music box.
Had a moroi in the entry T junction, easy to identify with the footstep speeds across two different hunts.
Next ghost was a yurei in the basement right hand side, identified it since it closed its door while I was away, and I listened in on paramic for a double door touch.
Third and final ghost (and definitely the worst one) was a mare inside the left entryway room that wouldn't do any ghost events. Had to wait until my sanity drained to figure out if it was a spirit or a mare based on how soon it hunted.
All in all it was a pretty easy challenge, just time consuming if you end up with a ghost that doesn't do anything to drop your sanity down and only has 1 of the evidence available.
this was my first time playing sunny meadows unrestricted and we went 3 for 3
This was the first weekly I have ever done it was a lot of fun!
me as deaf player can't hear, impossible to get evidence
spirit box, paramic sonar, book, dots
me : nevermind
What's the point of a challenge that's more boring than challenging, and doesn't reward well enough?
I was with a group where we thought it was either yokai, mare or obake. couldn't get UV or anything so we just all started blasting music for like 20 minutes because our sanity wasn't dropping. good times.
the closed doors might be on purpose, pretty sure last week was set to doors open – low.
Psycho you're better than that dude… 2nd Ghost was clearly an Oni and not a Banshee as it never roamed like a Banshee to make your life hard with opening doors that are far from the ghost room also 2 events dropped your sanity with 40% clearly Oni
lol i know its easier to see watching the video. but there was dots when he opened the book to mark writing. you could see it right above the journal.
i spent 30 minutes on a match because the ghost was a HANTU
this was because hantu is the only ghost in this challenge that shows no evidence
im honestly so thankful for the doors starting closed, i never play this map and always get lost so no lights is tough enough for me
Got Jinn, Demon, and Phantom
Although I got them all first try I think it's the hardest challange so far
That was weird. In the second one where you had an oni it did an ghostball hissing event. Oni’s aren’t able to do that right?
This looks like a fun challenge, but I wouldn’t dare try it😂 Great video as always!
It was easy at least for me. Been watching your videos/guides and I’ve gotten noticeably better. 3 rounds and got them all 3 times
To be fair Psycho, it is good that the devs have got all doors starting closed and if ghost have interacted with a door, leaving only one room that has an opened door, it would help the hearing impaired players, so at least they have gave us an inclination of a ghost room when we can't rely on audio 😅 so I'm grateful for that. The paramic still give away the background noises so we have no tell otherwise.
GGs on your weekly Psycho!
