Phasmophobia Weekly Challenge: Mastering the Primitive Challenge

Embarking on the Primitive weekly challenge in *Phasmophobia* might make you feel like you've been transported back to the Stone Age, but unlike our cave-dwelling ancestors, you'll have to contend with ghostly apparitions. The challenge requires you to navigate and complete your investigations at 10 Ridgeview Court without the aid of any electronics. It's a daunting task, but with the right approach, you can successfully complete it and emerge unscathed.

How To Complete The Primitive Challenge in Phasmophobia

The Primitive Challenge stands out as one of the toughest weekly challenges in *Phasmophobia*. You're tasked with identifying the ghost and wrapping up your investigations without any electronic tools, relying solely on your intuition and understanding of ghost behavior. This challenge takes place at 10 Ridgeview Court, a house-style map known for its manageable layout. Remember, you need to complete three qualifying investigations to fully conquer this challenge.

Tips & Tricks To Complete Primitive Challenge in Phasmophobia

Navigating the Primitive Challenge requires a keen understanding of the unique rules and circumstances at play. You won't have access to any electronic equipment, including Flashlights, DOTs Projectors, or Video Cameras. Even Sanity Medication is off-limits, though you'll start with a full Sanity meter for some initial protection.

Your provided equipment includes two Tier 1 Crucifixes to prevent ghost hunts, Tier 2 Firelights, and a full set of Tier 1 Incense for added safety. For evidence gathering, you'll have two Tier 3 Ghost Writing books and two Tier 1 "glowstick" UV lights, which double as your light sources and tools for ultraviolet evidence. Additionally, two Tier 1 thermometers will help detect freezing temperatures.

To succeed, you'll need to tap into your paranormal intuition and recognize the unique behavioral traits of each ghost. Our no-evidence cheat sheet can be a valuable resource here. Your primary goal is to locate the ghost quickly, especially since you can't access the fuse box, making your sanity more vulnerable in the dark. The ghost's increased activity in this challenge should aid in your search.

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 for its "favorite room" to pinpoint its location, but be aware this will cost 50% of your sanity. Always say "Goodbye" to the board to avoid triggering a Cursed Hunt, especially important in group settings.

How To Access Challenge Mode in Phasmophobia

To dive into the weekly challenge, choose between Singleplayer or Multiplayer mode. Navigate to your Difficulty Settings above your profile ID, and select 'Challenge Mode'. After applying the settings, head back to the main menu and manually select 10 Ridgeview Court on the map board. The loadout is pre-set and unchangeable, so once you're ready, hit 'Ready Up' and 'Start' to begin your challenge.
