  1. Had a Banshee today in the HS. Hunted like a normal ghost, so yay 😀

    Edit: was getting annoyed with the HS in the last week. We mostly had entrance area hunting shades.. dunno if it's a glitch of any sort but we've never had ghosts at the entrance as often.

  2. i played for 4 hours the other day, and the last ghost was a banshee. I walked in the door to turn on the first light, and as soon as i did, Paul Miller the butcher was standing beside me singing in my ear staring down the hallway, then turned to look at me then disappeared. Got my evidence quick, did the objectives, then ran away more scared than i ever was

  3. Truthfully, I thought the Banshee change was already how Banshees worked. Because it made sense to me that if its target was unreachable that it'd pick another randomly. So the change won't affect how I play the game, but I'm glad they added that.

  4. Hey nuzz! I just did my first bunch of solo professional hunts today!!!!!!! I survived 11/12! The one i died on was a Jinn on Grafton and the ghost was right behind me and i didnt open all the doors and couldnt loop him… but now i have 2k in game! If you EVER need a recording buddy, in almost always available during chicago Central Time in the U.S. the hours that im not available are dawn to 3:30 pm in that timezone. I play a lot of phas lately and have had soo much fun. I really want a buddy to play with.

  5. Awesome video as always! Poor, sleepy ghost xD
    I'm assuming then that if the target is inside, a Banshee will still only focus on them, but once the target is outside, it hunts like any other ghost and just goes after whomever they see? Cool!

  6. I can up with my own ghost type
    Name: Firestarter
    Strength: the FS will move faster in warmer areas
    Weakness: luring a FS in a cold room will repel it for 3 secs during a hunt
    Evidence: Ghost orbs, spirit box and EMF level 5
    Desc: A pretty dangerous ghost most commonly known to heat rooms and being aggressive

  7. Really wish he would make some actual content updates. Moving stuff in the van, and slight tweaks here and there isn’t enough to keep players coming back to the game. I’m sure he’s made his money, so it’s isn’t a big deal. Just really sucks since this game could be so much better.

  8. I had a Phantom on Asylum today showing me where the bone was. Not close to it's ghost room at all, but it had opened the door of the room with the bone. I thought that was quite kind haha.

  9. @Nuzzgard what would you think of a ghost that would teleport a few meters in front of you during hunts at random times so maps like asylum if you are running straight with no consequence. at any moment the ghost spawns the direction your running to cut you off that way

  10. I once tried to do solo on edgefield, went in the basement (red flag 1) lights turned off (red flag 2) i hear a tune being hummed (red flag 3) and the ghost appeared at the top of the stairs (it was the CHILD model, the creepiest)

  11. Damn I wish I knew this earlier.

    Yesterday I got into a run with 2 friends in Bleasdale, and we basically found out it was a Banshee super early since the ghost didn't hunt at all since the target was in the van looking for ghost orbs (we also had 2 pieces of evidence).

    So my friend other friend and I were sitting at 0% sanity for like 5 minutes getting secondary tasks and it starts hunting, almost pooped my pants, worst banshee ever.

  12. I had a Banshee on Tanglewood last night. We figured out who its target was, had him leave the building, and kept two other players inside. I stayed in the open, the other stood in a locker. It never chased me during the next hunt. Came right into the garage and walked past me.

    I believe Banshees will lock on to a different target, not just attack anyone. What I don't know is whether or not the original target will be attacked again if they come back in.

  13. personally i feel changing the banshee is a step in the wrong direction. for the most part all the ghosts acted the same except for 3, tht being the phantom, rev and banshee, which made it actually interesting to go up against. and now they are changing a big part of what the banshee is that those of us tht have been playing since day one have gotten used to, not to mention what the book describes it as. reminds me of the thermometer change, which i like the idea but also shouldve added something to balence it(good luck doing asylum) is kinda why ive stepped away from this game for awhile. theyve added alot of good updates but this isnt one IMO.
