Mastering the Music Box in Phasmophobia: A Guide to Location, Usage, and Hunt Triggers
Phasmophobia challenges players to identify ghost types and escape alive. The game's updates have introduced various tools, including the coveted Music Box. This guide details how to obtain and effectively utilize this valuable item.
Locating the Music Box
The Music Box, like other cursed objects in Phasmophobia, has a random spawn chance of approximately 1 in 7. Its appearance isn't guaranteed; it's purely a matter of luck. Only one Music Box can spawn per game. Once found, interact with it to activate its unique properties.
Utilizing the Music Box
The Music Box offers several strategic advantages. Upon activation, it plays a melody. A ghost within a 20-meter radius will react vocally, revealing its proximity. If the ghost is within 5 meters, it will be drawn towards the Box. This allows for strategic placement, luring the ghost to a specific location. Note that the Music Box automatically stops playing after the song concludes. Holding the activated Music Box will also decrease your sanity.
Triggering Hunts with the Music Box
The Music Box can initiate either a standard or cursed hunt, depending on specific circumstances:
- Throwing the active Music Box.
- Reaching 0% sanity while holding the active Music Box.
- The ghost approaching the Music Box for over five seconds.
- The ghost's proximity to the player holding the active Music Box.
For optimal use, consider carrying additional equipment like Smudge Sticks to mitigate the risks associated with triggered hunts. This allows you to continue identifying the ghost or completing other objectives.
Conclusion
This guide provides a comprehensive overview of obtaining and using the Music Box in Phasmophobia. Remember to utilize the Music Box strategically, combining it with other tools for a safer and more efficient ghost hunting experience. Further game tips and strategies can be found elsewhere.
