  1. Demon are supposed to be aggressive and terrifying and the changes reflect that. I think it’s a good idea the developers cranked the ghosts abilities to the roof since Nightmare mode wasn’t supposed to be reduced at guessing game. It nerfed the banshee but, imho, it was necessary as now, the banshee has traits that allowed it to be distinct in single player mode.

  2. Demon is a pain in the ass now.
    Last time i face one i got all evidences, but when i was trying to take all picstures, he start hunt 3 times in 5 minutes, with 70% sanity

  3. I think the Demon may have an additional secret ability. Since Ouija boards are significantly less common I believe they've added an effect to other cursed objects, or at the very least the Tarot deck. I believe the chance to draw Death cards is significantly increased, as we drew six from a single deck with a demon present, and while it needs more testing, that would be some truly crazy RNG if it weren't the case.

  4. I think the devs should also Ctrl+X the Banshee's crucifix weakness to the Demon. It makes a lot more sense that would be a DEMON'S weakness than a Banshee's, and would also make Banshees a bit less underpowered.

  5. The ability was bugged where the hunt would only last 1 second"

    That explains the banshee on high school a few months ago that kept closing the doors and turning off all lights for no apparent reason.
    I was confused because it kept showing sings of a hunt without seeming to actually hunt

  6. I don't know if it was a bug or not. But i was in tanglewood and on intermediate. I'm pretty sure i had a demon since it initiated a hunt within 7seconds of me unlocking the front door. Within the grace period.

  7. Oooh interesting. I've yet to play this again after the new map update.
    It's gonna be hard for us to determine the smudge duration especially if we can't even determine if we successfully smudged it unless it's one of the bonus objectives.

  8. "In fact, below an average team sanity of 25%, there is no difference in the average hunting rate between Demons and most other ghosts."
    Demon's wikia page says that about the hunt cooldowns.

  9. I died yesterday in highschool on amateur difficulty to a demon. I used paramic to find him 'cause it made lots of whispers sounds through it (I was thinking at beginning it might have been a myling xD). I left the paramic open, went back to the truck and pick up other objects (dots, cam). When I went outside of the room I heard ghosts sounds and I was like "uhm yeah I forgot to close the paramic, that's why I'm hearing strange noises, right?" and instead it was the ghost doing a early hunt XD
