Welcome back to Phasmophobia! In this video I teach you how to get EMF 5 with the activity chart instead of the EMF meter. Besides that I will tell you EVERYTHING I know about the EMF meter! ENJOY!

I still remember the old beginner days and how exciting was looking at the activity chart to see how dangeros is the ghost.
Someone in the track warning the others in the house the ghost activity is 8 and he will hunt soon!!!
Your guides are phasmo gold. You could literally make a guide on tripods and I'd watch it at least 3 times
Imagine just having a random emf thingi on your desk
not one, not two, but a whole three red arrows. that's how you know the video will be good
7:00 Really good technique for smaller maps but not that good for Asylum or Sunny Meadows
"Door touches, EMF 2. Light Switch, EMF 2…"
Me: 🕺💃💃
I like how he starts to explain one single thing and then switches to 50 diffrent topics and 5 min. later he finishes the explaination of the thing he wanted to tell you earlier. When I explain the game to new ppl I have to be careful to not derail to much just like he does… can be very confusing
sometimes, when poltergeist use the ability, Activity go straight to 10
It's pretty normal. Let's say you put the EMF in your pocket while it's on, IRL. It's still gonna be on if you get it out of your pocket. So the EMF ingame should be on too once you get it out of your inventory
Increased ghost activity / lower sanity should make the values on the activity chart less reliable and fluctuate more. We need more things influenced by our sanity / ghost activity.
Never forgot my first walk into a house. The eerie sound alone had me walk back out and close the game. I could not even walk into the house for 20 seconds. The whole vibe changes. This man alone from the years has not only gave me the courage but the strength to go in alone, identify and make the ghost my friend. Thank you again Insym. I wish i knew your first name. But you got me over my biggest fear and I tackle it like a pro. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU! I work nights and I cant wait to get home and watch the vids daily. <3
I think at this point the true edge cases are when a mechanic or piece of knowledge applies in more than one situation
Paramic can be turned on and thrown down. It will give the achievement of Para sound on its own. As long as it's on its listening…so turn it on ,throw it so it points some where and it can get the accident without you holding it
I remember times when Activity Chart was showing random values fluctuating up and down 😀
Totally unrelated: I remember starting a tanglewood with my bud one day, we walk in together, go right for power, by the time we reach the doors to the basement and utility room we saw 2 things laying on the ground in the dining room. We said yup, didnt hear it so it had to be a polter who threw 2 items immediately when we opened the door. And it really was. This game is great
a bit more info about ghost interactions and events:
a ghost can interact with objects that are within 3 meters of it. when the twins does its ability, it can interact with an object that is within 3 meters and an object that is within 16 meters. if the object is thrown, it gives emf 3, otherwise, emf 2.
the ghost can do an event if there is at least one player within 10 meters of it. if the event is not an airball, the ghost will teleport near the player it chooses. there will be emf 4 around the spot where the ghost was when the event started.
Glasses missing but day is 100% better since i can watch insym blurry but i can still see some details
TL:DW
Your EMF meter will give you these readings:
1 – Baseline, no interaction
2 – interacts with object
3 – Throws object
4 – Manifestation
5 – Evidence
The board shows one less than the EMF reader would pick up, with a +/- 1 modifier. That means the board displays these readings:
0 – Baseline, no interaction
0-2 – Interacts with objects
1-3- Throws object
2-4 – Manifestation
3-5 – Evidence
Still no console news? I bet we are looking at another delay
I legit just got screwed over by a Polty while using the activity tab without watching this guide first lmaaaao so many 10s and 9s cuz of the throws but since I was playing the professional+ and I was too scared to try escaping an hunt ahaha
This will involve a lot of work, but you could create a YouTube short focusing solely on the graph. One of the issues, when I recommend your videos to new players, is that they find them too lengthy. You could utilize the short format to provide a brief guide on the topic and pique their curiosity about the remaining content you elaborate on in the long format. Keep up the good work! 📹🎮🤩👍
activity chart is more precise than termometer t3
Do you eat vegetables?
great tutorial
So that is what they mean by airball ghost event when he is in the living room 27:25
Short and easy rule that works 100% of the time.
If the chart goes up or down by exactly 5 in one go with no breaks between points or slanted graph and it wasn't a ghost event or hunt, it's always EMF5.
It seems so obvious now that I think about it but I always thought that the emf levels on the chart were a one to one in the sense that emf 1 would be at 1 on the chart. That's probably why I never got confused when using the chart for emf 5 since I only ever said it was 5 when it was actually at 5 on the chart. So that's definitely nice to know and good to learn
the sounds on sound sensor on your gear will when you click expand button in the truck i tested it before this post
Additional context with regards to EM5 using the activity chart for me is that it is safer to assume an EM5 evidence when it is frequently spiking (4 or 5) and there's no player in the room. Ghost events always gives an EM4 (which would look like an EM5 in the chart) but would require a player to be there so if you are playing in coop, you should keep it in mind.
(Edit) oh he did mention it. mb i commented while still watching lol
6:00 to non phasmophobia players this just seems so random and out of context

I said it a couple of times, but the Banshee DOTS is painfully obvious, if you are looking for it, because it will almost always go to your direction. Use DOTS and Motion Sensors for Banshees. It will walk to its target and sometimes you can see it on DOTS. It even makes ghost events more frequently near its target because of that. We tested it and one of my friends (who was the target) got every single ghost event and only he saw the Motion Sensor activate. Forget that paramic crap.
