Common Challenges
Incense causes ghosts to speed up in Phasmophobia, creating unexpected difficulties. This occurs because incense disperses its fragrance, making it easier for ghosts to locate players. It can lead to ghosts quickly chasing down and catching players off guard.
Practical Solutions
To address this issue, consider using incense sparingly. Avoid lighting multiple sticks simultaneously, as this intensifies the effect. Additionally, use incense only when necessary, such as during hunts. If a ghost is already active, refrain from using incense, as it will further increase its speed.
Tactical Insights
When using incense, stay vigilant and be prepared to move quickly. Have an escape route planned in advance and keep an eye on the ghost’s location. If possible, use incense in conjunction with other items that slow down ghosts, such as crucifixes or smudge sticks. This can help mitigate the increased speed and provide a better chance of survival.
