If you're an avid ghost hunter in *Phasmophobia*, you've likely heard of Challenge Mode—a thrilling test of your paranormal investigation skills. The Do As I Command Challenge is one such example that you can dive into, but understanding how it works can give you the edge you need to succeed.
What Is Challenge Mode in Phasmophobia?
Challenge Mode in *Phasmophobia* is an exciting weekly task that presents you with a preset contract, complete with unique conditions and equipment. This mode refreshes every Sunday, offering a new challenge for you to tackle. The difficulty of these challenges varies; some are akin to regular investigations, while others demand you push your ghost-hunting prowess to the brink by altering ghost behaviors and limiting your equipment.
To successfully complete a weekly challenge, you need to fulfill the preset contract three times before the weekly reset. These completions don't need to be consecutive, but they must be completed within the week to count towards your reward. Each time you complete the contract, you must correctly identify the ghost for it to contribute to your overall challenge completion. While optional objectives aren't mandatory, completing them can boost your points, which is particularly useful if you're aiming to prestige your character.
Successfully completing a weekly challenge earns you a base reward of $5,000, plus any additional points you accumulate during the contracts.

How To Complete Do As I Command Challenge in Phasmophobia
The "Do As I Command" challenge in *Phasmophobia* is considered one of the more manageable options within Challenge Mode due to its minimal alterations to ghost behavior and equipment. The challenge's description indicates that you'll need to "force this ghost to give you evidence," suggesting that the ghost will be less active than usual. This contract must be completed on the Sunny Meadows map, and note that the "Restricted" version is not permitted.
You'll embark on this contract with a preset loadout provided at no cost, which includes all equipment at the Tier 3 level. Additionally, the fuse box is functional for this challenge, so be sure to activate it upon arrival to enhance your investigation.
Navigating Sunny Meadows can be challenging, especially with a quieter ghost. However, the Do As I Command challenge comes with a significant advantage: access to all seven Cursed Possessions, conveniently located in the chapel.
These Cursed Possessions, such as the Haunted Mirror or Ouija Board, can expedite locating the ghost, while others like the Voodoo Doll or Monkey Paw can provoke ghost activity to gather evidence. Be cautious, though, as using these items can lead to sanity drain and trigger cursed hunts.
That wraps up how to complete the Do As I Command challenge in *Phasmophobia*. For more tips and updates, be sure to explore other guides and news at The Escapist, including how to complete the Tortoise and Hare challenge.
*Phasmophobia is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.*
