Playing Phasmophobia on 0% sanity custom settings is a whole different beast! I've had so many adrenaline-pumping moments, similar to my recent Mimic encounter. For anyone diving into these extreme modes, understanding each ghost's unique traits becomes absolutely crucial, especially when every hunt feels like an 'insta-hunt' and there's no room for error. It really pushes you to hone your ghost identification skills. The Mimic, as I experienced, can be incredibly tricky. Usually, it's known for copying other ghost types, including their evidence and behaviors. This means you might think you're dealing with a Wraith, a Banshee, or even a Jinn, only for the Mimic to reveal its true nature by changing its mimicry or showing its unique 'Ghost Orbs' evidence alongside the copied ones. My best advice for spotting a Mimic is to look for those Ghost Orbs even if other evidence points elsewhere. Always double-check! Sometimes, as in my case, they just do their own thing, which can be both confusing and hilarious. It’s a ghost that truly keeps you on your toes! When you're running a 0% sanity custom game, evidence gathering becomes a high-stakes game right from the start. You often begin with an immediate hunt, so knowing what items to prioritize is key. The CMT Reader can be invaluable for quickly getting temperature readings, but don't forget the basics: EMF Reader, Spirit Box, and Ghost Writing Book are still your bread and butter. Understanding the nuances, like how to distinguish a Wraith's lack of footsteps from other ghosts, or a Banshee's unique target hunting, is vital. For ghosts like the Yurei, known for forcefully closing doors, or the Yokai, which only reacts to voices when you're close, paying attention to subtle environmental cues can be your lifeline. My team and I have learned through many 'insta-hunt' scenarios that communication and quick decision-making are paramount. Don't waste time; get in, grab some evidence, and get out. Having a plan for hiding spots or escape routes before you even step foot in the house can save your life. It's all about minimizing your exposure and maximizing your evidence collection in the shortest possible timeframe. These custom games might seem 'boring' to some if you're not prepared, but with the right strategy, they offer some of the most intense and rewarding Phasmophobia experiences out there! Always be ready for the unexpected, because sometimes, even the Mimic just wants to 'be itself' and throw you for a loop!
