Phasmophobia Weekly Challenge: Mastering the Primitive Challenge

In the world of *Phasmophobia*, the Primitive weekly challenge might make you feel like you've been transported back to the Stone Age, but cavemen never had to deal with ghostly apparitions. To conquer this challenge, you'll need to navigate without any electronics, which can seem daunting, but with the right approach, it's entirely possible.

The Primitive Challenge in *Phasmophobia* stands out as one of the game's toughest weekly challenges. You're tasked with identifying the ghost and completing your investigations without the aid of any electronic devices. This means you'll have to rely heavily on your intuition and understanding of ghost behavior.

Your battleground for this challenge is 10 Ridgeview Court, a house-style map known for its navigable layout, which can be a slight advantage. Remember, you need to successfully complete three investigations to fully conquer this challenge.

Tips & Tricks To Complete Primitive Challenge in Phasmophobia

Navigating the Primitive Challenge requires understanding the unique circumstances and limited equipment provided. Without electronics, you're missing out on essential tools like Flashlights, DOTs Projectors, and Video Cameras.

Sanity Medication is also off the table, but you start with a full Sanity meter, offering temporary protection against ghostly antics. Your arsenal includes two Tier 1 Crucifixes to prevent up to two ghost hunts, Tier 2 Firelights, and a set of Tier 1 Incense for added safety.

For evidence gathering, your options are slim. You have two Tier 3 Ghost Writing books and two Tier 1 "glowstick" UV lights, which serve dual purposes as flashlights and UV evidence detectors. Additionally, two Tier 1 thermometers help detect freezing temperatures.

To succeed, you'll need to tap into your paranormal intuition. Each ghost in *Phasmophobia* has unique behavioral traits that can help you identify them without traditional evidence. Our no-evidence cheat sheet can be a valuable resource.

Locating the ghost quickly is crucial, especially without access to the fuse box, which increases your sanity risk in the dark. The ghost's increased activity in this challenge should help you track it down faster.

For a more unconventional approach, consider using the Ouija Board found in the laundry room on the first floor, left of the dining area. Ask the ghost its "favorite room" to pinpoint its location, but be prepared to lose 50% of your sanity. Always say "Goodbye" to the board to avoid triggering a Cursed Hunt. This method is particularly useful in group settings for added safety.

To dive into the Primitive Challenge, choose between Singleplayer or Multiplayer. Navigate to your Difficulty Settings, located above your profile ID, and select 'Challenge Mode'. Apply the settings, return to the main menu, and manually select 10 Ridgeview Court on the map board. Remember, the loadout is fixed and cannot be changed. Once ready, select 'Ready Up' and 'Start' to begin.
