  1. The Tier 2 Dots are king while the Tier 3 Dots are a let down. I believe the T3 is too unreliable at times and seems to only work through sheer luck. The ghost already has a low chance to do dots, and with the potential of having a dots projector only being aimed at them 50% of the time is a downgrade.

  2. YES! I feel so validated watching this, heh. 🙂 I never bother with a thermo above Tier 1, and I kept taking the glowstick for ages. I did eventually warm up to Tier 3, but Tier 2 UV is total trash, and in groups I generally prefer to bring both Tiers 1 & 3 if possible. The big flashlight is good to toss on a table aimed at a window or door if you're watching the cams for evidence, while the glowstick is great to toss down up close for AoE coverage when you're trying to take photos, especially of salt piles.

  3. howd i nerf the tier 1s: reduce the glowstick range so it doesn't hit the doorway fingerprints, limited shake amount before it stops working. make the tier 1 thermo randomly decide a new temp 3 units below or above the actual temp (id say decided every second or so), also id make tier 3 always show exact temp, or have it only be a decimal based difference

  4. It could be nice if the tier 3 thermo would have multiple probes that can track micro temp adjustments, so you could put it around the house and track the ghosts roaming, thereby also figure out if the ghost is coming and maybe where it started hunts from. I think that would complete the tiers better.

    Then for tier 3 UV flashlight, it could be an attachment to normal flashlights, so you could switch between UV and normal mode with the click of a button. You never want both to be on at the same time anyway, not even for photocam. See how many clicks you had to do to charge up the fingy, flip over to camera, turn off the flashlight and then take a photo. It would be a nice quality of life thing

  5. My beef. Is the spirit boxes, ALL 3 tiers! I have a rather DEEP voice…. Never hears my voice any which way. I have a great mic and all that…. Just does not work with my voice

  6. I disagree, since I feel using the thermo to find the ghost room is almost useless. If I use the thermo I want to determine if it is actually freezing, and tier 3 is better for that. As for the uv light, you can literally just drop it on the ground and it lights up a larger area than the glow stick.

  7. Me and a friend had a thaye that showed kitchen/dining on mirror and than Temps moved to utility and than moved to living room where it proceeded to hunt from. When we checked stats it didn't change favorite room. We were on intermediate. I still don't know what happend

  8. Absolutely have seen the Tanglewood kitchen/dining room temperature bug. Also am totally with you on tier 1 thermo versus tier 3. Tier 1 is actually pretty OP.

    Also don't use tier 3 is the DOTS projector. I find it totally ironic that you are supposed to listen to the small and remote sounds then they give you the tier 3 DOTS projectors which literally drown out all other noises that aren't loud. All you hear is the damned motor of the DOTS projector. So I always roll with tier 2 DOTS. Now if when they change the tier 3 to a selectable stationary mode if they shut the damned motor noise off when it is stationary I would give it a try to see if it is worthwhile to go back to but as-is the tier 3 DOTS just isn't worth it for all of the lost audio feedback of the game.

    The tier 3 DOTS is even more ironic figuring that the tier 3 motion sensors also move around and don't make hardly any noise at all. I have also taken to using the tier 2 headset as well versus tier 3 because I like the fact that it just gives a bit of extra light which is all I need versus having to go through the whole put it down-put it up graphic time delay of tier 3. Situational for sure though as I'm sure there are points where the tier 3 headset will be worth it.

    As far as favorite tier 3 item I think I will have to go with EMF detector. Just insanely useful for knowing where the item is that got moved or interacted with and not just the one source but three sources.

  9. I think for balance the glow stick should have an even more horrible charging range, so you cant drop it at the bottom of doors. It will instantly let you know you've got UV evidence, but be cumbersome to get certain photos with.

  10. I think Motion Sensor tier 2 is better than tier 3 for me. I can't ever really understand the tier 3 Motion Sensor, and the V-shape of tier 2 Motion Sensor is really all I need. Smudge Sticks tier 1 are USUALLY best. I am going to try the tier 3 Motion Sensor technique Insym describes here, though. I didn't know about that. That seems useful.
