Mastering the Tarot Cards in Phasmophobia: A Comprehensive Guide
Tarot Cards in Phasmophobia present a high-risk, high-reward scenario during ghost investigations. This guide details their usage and potential outcomes.
Strategic Use of Tarot Cards
Due to their unpredictable nature, it's advisable to use Tarot Cards in a safe area, such as near a hiding spot or the entrance, to facilitate a quick escape if a negative card is drawn (like the dreaded Death card).
Each card triggers an immediate effect upon use. However, there's a chance of drawing "The Fool," a neutral card resulting in no effect. You can draw up to ten cards without impacting sanity. Duplicate cards yield the same effect.
Tarot Card Effects and Probabilities
The following table outlines the ten possible Tarot Cards, their effects, and their respective probabilities:
Tarot Card | Effect | Draw Chance |
---|---|---|
The Tower | Doubles ghost activity for 20 seconds | 20% |
The Wheel of Fortune | 25% sanity gain (green flame); 25% sanity loss (red flame) | 20% |
The Hermit | Confines the ghost to its favorite room for 1 minute (excluding hunts/events) | 10% |
The Sun | Full sanity restoration (100%) | 5% |
The Moon | Complete sanity drain (0%) | 5% |
The Fool | Mimics another card before becoming The Fool; no effect | 17% |
The Devil | Triggers a ghost event near the closest player | 10% |
Death | Initiates a prolonged Cursed Hunt (20 seconds longer) | 10% |
The High Priestess | Instant revival of a fallen teammate | 2% |
The Hanged Man | Instant death for the user | 1% |
Understanding Cursed Possessions in Phasmophobia
Cursed Possessions (or Cursed Objects) are high-risk items that randomly appear on Phasmophobia maps, offering gameplay manipulation at the cost of significant risk to the player characters. Unlike standard equipment, they don't provide evidence but offer strategic advantages or disadvantages. Only one Cursed Possession spawns per contract (unless modified in Custom settings), each appearing in a predetermined location. Seven Cursed Possessions exist in the game.
