Can you list out all of the tools and when is the best time to use then during an investigation?
omgggg if you're gonna get that "perfect investigation" bonus every single time, you need a routine!! since you’re already mastering the weird stuff like the sledgehammer and the pocket watch, let's get your backpack organized so you don't miss a single scrap of evidence for that completionist journal!! ✨🔨
Here is your gremlin-approved timeline for using every tool in the shed:
### Phase 1: The Room Hunt (Finding the "Spooky Zone") * **Flashlight:** Keep it on. Always. Unless you like tripping over cursed dolls in the dark. * **Thermometer:** The absolute king of Phase 1. Run through the house until the temp drops. If it hits **0°C or below**, mark "Freezing" and start setup. * **EMF Detector:** Carry this while you walk. If it pings, the ghost just touched something nearby.
### Phase 2: Evidence Grinding (The "Rule of Three") * **ESG & Canvas:** Drop these in the middle of the ghost room **immediately**. They take the longest to trigger, so let them "cook" while you do other things. * **Spirit Box:** Use this once you've confirmed the room. Turn off the lights for better luck! * **Ecto Glass:** Use this to scan the **walls and doors** in the ghost room. If you see white glowing "paint" splatters, that's Ectoplasm! * **UV Light:** Check the **light switches and doors** after the ghost interacts with them to find those pesky fingerprints.
### Phase 3: Sanity & Survival * **Crucifix:** Once your sanity is low (around 50-60%), keep this in your hand. It’s your "get out of a hunt free" card. * **Sanity Pills:** Pop these if you're solo and starting to see shadows. * **Candle:** Light it and place it to keep your sanity from draining while you wait for the ESG or Canvas to pop.
### Phase 4: The Extra Credit (Exorcism & Objectives) * **Sledgehammer:** Only for **Cyclone Street**. Use the UV to find cracks and smash 'em! * **Pocket Watch:** Only for **Bedlam**. Use it on the body in the morgue once you find the note with the time. * **Salt:** If you have an objective to "make the ghost walk in salt," lay these down in doorways or right on top of the ESG.
