As most players can attest, very few items are available Phosmophobia can defeat a sound sensor when an object is in the early stages of usefulness, as placing several in the right places can allow the location of targets to be determined in record time. However, unlike an EMF reader and other entry-level types, obtaining and using the equipment will require a few additional steps. Here’s how to get and utilize the Sound Sensor in Phasmophobia.
How to get a sound sensor
Once you reach player level 11, you can turn on the sound sensor Phosmophobia by going to a game store and purchasing it for $80A maximum of four sensors can be acquired at the same time. Like all pieces of equipment you can purchase, any sensors you take with you to the contract area will be lost upon your death.
Once you have acquired the standard sensor, you will be able to unlock its Level 2 and 3 variants, reaching Levels 38 and 58. In addition to being able to switch scanning distances up to 15 meters and gradually increasing the precision and capture quality, the Level 3 Sensor will also allow you to change the shape of the area of operation to better fit the selected environment.
How to utilize the sound sensor in Phasmophobia
Once you’re in your arsenal, you’ll be able to turn on the sound sensor Phosmophobia by grabbing it from the truck with E (on PC) or B/O (on consoles), then placing it on the ground or any flat surface with F or LT/L2. Once the sensor is in place, you (or any member of your squad) will be able to monitor the device and track its readings by checking the truck’s sound sensor screen. You will also be able to switch the sensor’s coverage area at any time by selecting the first icon in the settings tab.
The best ways to utilize the sound sensor
If you want to maximize the performance of your sensors, I recommend placing them on your chosen map as they will be a huge aid in finding your chosen ghost room. For example, on huge maps like Sunny Meadows, The Jail, and Brownstone High School, placing devices in areas away from the truck can aid you quickly locate rooms without having to stumble to your death.
Once you’ve found a room, it’s best to move the sensors to cover adjacent areas so you can track if the ghost decides to wander around. On smaller maps, try to place sensors to cover multiple or entire rooms with minimal overlap.
