How I usually play:
Thermal is the FASTEST way to find the ghost room. Why? Every other item detects the ghost, but not the ghost room. The Thermal sensor is the only ghost room specific item in the game and it will work as soon as you enter the house, unless it's snowing. I usually find the ghost room within a minute on every map except huge maps, hold shift and run in-out of every room.
secondaries for thermal are Camera and Candle. Stop your sanity drain to prevent a hunt and Camera for Bone, Cursed item, early interactions or ghost event.
after the ghost room and the fuse box are found. throw away the candle and thermal. place all cameras inside, then 2 books, then 1 dots and 1 emf because those are the most annoying evidence types.
then it's spirit box and UV and salt.
should have all photos and evidence within 5-8min, unless it's a broken ghost and they do nothing for 10min, in which case just leave and reset
hey insym, did you know you can find orbs thru the photo camera? ive seen them a couple of times on the photo camera and always got it confirmed through the video camera.
they look different but they are there. its really cool
edit: a quick disclaimer, ive been using max brightness for the 15x reward but it may be possible on normal btightness as well.
I have always thought “We had reports of violence” was always a hint that the ghost was just more aggressive. Everything I know is a lie.

If spirit box is one of the evidence, does the "responds to" have any influence while playing solo, ex: ghost is less likely to talk into the s-box if "responds to" is set to groups, I play solo on professional so I don't know if "grouped" even is possible while solo since I never really payed attention to this while learning the game on lower difficulty
This is really cool
great job ur insane at the game
Excellent bro, Thank for share your experience 👍👍👍
Thanks so much for this, it's so helpful for people trying to learn but also entertaining and fascinating for people just kind of interested in all the intricate systems. Bringing order and understanding to the fear and chaos of this game is so welcome.
I've still never had a Lisa 🙁
You should do videos like this for the game, Conrad Stevenson paranormal p.i!!
can the ghost hear you talk?
Mistake in your video:
Repel the ghost while it's chasing someone.
You HAVE to be seen for this to work. That's why it says "chasing". Although in multiplayer this will work if someone else is being chased and you smudge from inside a hiding spot.
The objective will NOT be completed if you smudge the ghost while hiding, no matter how close you are.
even i already know how to play i still learned something new,Thank you Insym
Can you get a three star photo from the Tanglewood car alarm?
With the Thaye using its ability 12 times, it probably counted the times it attempted to age when you weren't in the same room as it so it didn't get older. But yes it can only actually age ten times.
I have a question i seen many a times revenat specially lady revenat they cry during a hunt. I need to know that.
Question about the upcoming level reset.
Will they reset EVERYTHING? Such as earned money, and owned items as well? Or is this SPECIFICALLY resetting our levels?
I like to think I was once pretty good at this game but I haven’t played since like the day of expositions release soooo 💀
When you are gonna do Languages Challange 😂😂😂
I waiting you talk japanese or Korean language 😂😂😂
why bring the uv light in the first run ;-; you already had it
Quick question, does holding the locker/closet door when hiding make a difference?
best phasmophobia creator out there fr fr
Can you play Welcome to the Game 2 on 1337 difficulty again? Would be so cool if you can beat it after an year
Do you hold the door for safety? When your hiding, also is it possible that the ghost still get you even if you hold the door 42:15
Because of this video and the ghost guide you can learn pretty much everything about phasmo within 5 hours which is pretty insane 😀
Ghost: here take my evidence and leave I am done listening to you
Insym: this is the hardest evidence
not anymore I guess lol
I've been playing since near release, however one interesting thing that I did learn from this video is that smudge stick cleanse timers don't reset if you overlap them. Very useful! Thanks Insym!
love the guide. helps tremendously. thank you. one questions to sound. these ambient muffled creaking sounds? are they just that? muffled creaking or smth to confuse you or does every sound mean something cause when i started i was running around everywhere and got confused as hell.
I have few questions..
1. Does looping extends hunt duration?
2. Why does heavy rain has higher multiplier than others?
3. Does air ball event turn off the light in room it started or it is going to?
4. Can goryo dots be seen from the truck while the cam is placed in the ghost room? (Technically you are not in the ghost room right?)
5. Does lighter/campfire save from passive drain while it is on?
6. How much does teammate death have effect on hunt duration and sanity?
Also to reiterate, smudge timer starts from the first one lit during a hunt and any subsequent smudges don't have any effect on the timer that is running from the first one during that hunt right?.
in your video "lvl 14000" in highschool you reduced your sanity by candle, how it works?
quick note about the thermal:
If it goes close to 0 but it's not freezing, that means you're pointing it directly at the ghost. Wherever the ghost is walking, will give you lower temperatures than the entire room.
note about EMF5:
it's far easier to detect using the activity than the EMF sensor.
even if the EMF sensor does not show 5, the truck will. If you see a 5 activity spike for 20 ticks in duration, that's EMF5. Keep in mind sometimes it can do multiple interactions so the 5 spike might become a 6 or 7, but it will ALWAYS jump by 5 in about 20 ticks. Ticks = the bottom line numbers on the Activity monitor.
So for example if it did EMF5, you see a 5 spike for 10 ticks, but then it touches a door so it's now 7. If at 20 ticks it drops to 2 that means it's EMF5 because it dropped by 5 in 20 ticks after the first 5 spike.
So Every time you go to the truck to pick up items, make sure to look at the Activity before going back in the house.
thank you you really helpt me
Insym could offer a class on Phasmophobia and we would be enamored, heck even newcomers would understand perfectly.
Another tip: If you get a spirit box response, ask it more questions cuz if you hear loud breathing on the spirit box you know its a Deogen. The loud breathing is Deogens hidden abillity.
smudge saved me once when i couldnt see
i used it in a random room when hunt and kept triing to run and i found door and i ran and i lived
