hi youtube how are you doing and WELCOME back to phasmophobia
hello
Exploit? I wouldn’t say so. Cheesy? Most definitely. Much less cheesy than some of the shenanigans that old customs could do. I run a 13.5x multiplier, and even that took me like 6-8 hours or so to prestige once. I can only imagine how long it would take me to prestige using a default difficulty.
Maybe if you speedrun perfect games with friends it wouldnt be as bad? These kinds of 0 sanity 0 evidence speedruns have been in the game for a while, if the devs didn’t like it they would have obviously changed it. They changed the exp gains from bigger maps, I used to do a 10x on sunny meadows for levels.
Personally I think 0 evidence is the most fun way to play Phas, but I agree the woodwind thing is cheesy, boring, and kind of up to rng. But it’s currently the best way to level, people should lay off people who want to be optimal. It’s not an exploit, it doesn’t harm you, and everyone can do it (with a bit of know how).
I tried that custom you did on camp woodwind and it's hard at first. They were just all Jinns, Hantu's, Revs and Obake's
An exploit is specifically taking advantage of a bug – something that shouldnt be in the game and is broken. Like clipping through a wall, or standing up in trees on Woodwind where youre out of bounds and the ghost cant touch you. Those are exploits. Depending on ones opinion, the 12x multiplier guessing method on Woodwind could be considered cheap, but it really isnt an exploit.
Guessing the ghost is good training for new players 🙂
Lets goooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Insym : Even for a professional sometimes its hard to find the ghost.
Me : Looks like somebody ghosted you 😌
I started off using the Camp Woodwind method of leveling because I was too new and scared to play it with crap tier 1 items. Lately I've been using it for mastering looping and learning how to differentiate the fast ghosts, but now I'm a little sad because I wasn't aware of the stats page. My identifying the ghost stat is going to be horrible 🙁 Time to play legit I guess.
i just did an overkill challenge the other day, i had to guess 3 bleasdale ghosts for $5000! i did it i got a lot of exp leveled up at least 6 times unlocked a few items, when choosing difficulty look for challenge mode its probably a new challenge now it resets regularly.
Before I watch. Just play with others who have everything unlocked.
Also how I leveled up was play on a custom difficulty with 3 evidence and make ghost really fast and me have no sprint. No hiding places, no cooldown during a hunt. Essentially I get in there and get the light on really fast. Find room with thermometer and setup everything in there. I make sure lights are always on unless I do spirit box. I get like 5.63x multiplier so I normally get like $1300 to $1800 or so depending on bonus objectives and photos. NEVER allow the ghost to hunt. I keep my sanity above 60% normally unless I am narrowing it down further. Takes about 5 minutes or so. No sprinting is what sucks the most.
Also my method is for those who aren't insanely good at figuring out the ghost without evidence.
I’m always watching Insym content 🫣
I just hate how grindy the game feels if you don't use one of those custom difficulties. One perfect nightmare game with full photos on Tanglewood gets you less than half the XP of a single woodwind guess on 13x. It's going to take AGES to level up and get better equipment if you don't grind.
thank you for covering so many ways for us to level up in the game! really appreciate u & all u do for us 🖤
What if the normal difficulties have an EXP multiplier that increases as you complete successful runs?
personnaly i play nightmare solo and intermediate with my friends (they are beginners) I dont care how fast it goes, i just play to enjoy 😉 I feel grinding the custom difficulty is efficient yea, but efficiency is not the point for me in this game.
if you know the ghosts well, then insanity, if you aint as good then just play pro 🙂 you will level up at your own pace and have fun along the way
I am highly impressed with a certain part of your stats, you have somehow managed to lose 20% more items when you have bought 😂 love the vids though man 😁
Yoo
Thats not an exploit cuz u can stay a lil more and test for wraith test for spirit eith the smudge test for goryo to see if it comes from the same room etc
really love this video Insym ty <3
Also something they could do is tat everytime you prestige, you can permanently unlock 1 item of your choice.
So, you are now P2.
Also I got here before 600 likes, lettuce go!
And, I feel like having a(n) actual farm for a map would be neat, or just a funny Easter egg for Insym, like a small chance for The Hanged Man to have Insym on it, or when you complete a mission in under 5 minutes, you'll get a little note thats difficult to see that says, "Oh, so you like speedrunning?"
Again, I'm not looking for likes, comments, or attention, as these are just my opinions, not recommendations.
Some how this dude is able to make his videos literal hours long but still we'll watch every single second.
😅So this channel going to be for phasmophobia only I’m confused😬
Can't even get to lv 3 cause my game is broken and the devs refuse to fix it, sometimes I only get 100$ no matter what I do and most times I get 0, also can't change difficulty above amateur 🙄 I was almost lv 7k and have to deal with amateur with garbage items cause the game is broken, so mad I'm almost just deleting the save and starting from a new one to see if it fixes but then I can say goodbye to my lv thingy whatever the name is
if you guess ghost on custom difficulties it should take away expirience and money. that'll be fun xd.
i got A Folloing Shadow Ghost Event when doing Music box ghost Event, 2 event at same time XD
Right now that im writing this comment, no one has watched the whole video😮
by definition, these methods are NOT exploits, although it is true that you arent playing the game as intended
I hate the Woodwind 12.97 cheese strat, but one thing it created for me that I love is a hunt training mode. Tweak the custom settings for zero sanity and fog weather, also kill rewards but retain the danger you'd face in a normal match, and use it to train yourself on hunt behaviors and speeds. I've learned so much more that I wasn't really learning in standard play.
idk what's up with you and the music box but it's been functioning well for me since the update LMAO
Edit: A perfect game on Professional nets you around 1325$-1375$ with normal photos. It might go up to 1400$ if you get lucky with dirty water photos mayhaps.
I've been playing pretty much exactly like this since the big update. My settings are slightly higher than nightmare but lower than insanity, I think it's 4.20x or around that. Playing on higher difficulties and guessing is not an exploit though. I agree that grinding the higher difficulties like that cheapens the experience but it's not abusing anything that wasn't already in the game. People that do that will still be trash at the game since they don't actually learn the mechanics.
I generally like to go for perfect hunts. So I setup a custom that is basically a professional run with 4x multiplier. It's a good balance of difficulty. Mostly by setting 0 hunt grace period and a couple small changes like heavy rain. If you manage sanity and be careful with hunts it usually doesn't get you killed. lol.
HEY AGAIN INSYM!! I'VE BEEN WATCHING THE NEW UPDATE VIDEOS OF YOURS IN MY TV WITH A DIFFERENT GOOGLE ACC LOL! REALLY MISS WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS AND I STILL GOT THE TOP COMMENTER BADGE
The thing about the camp woodwind strat, I'm using it to help me determine ghost hunting patterns and to get used to hunting cause I SUCK.
Maybe it's just my monitor but does anyone else feel like they can actually see better using the tier 1 DOTS light than when using the actual tier 1 flashlight?
