Master the Parabolic Microphone in Phasmophobia for enhanced ghost hunting! This guide details how to unlock and effectively utilize this crucial piece of equipment.
Unlocking the Parabolic Microphone:
The Parabolic Microphone is optional equipment in Phasmophobia. To acquire it, reach the following levels to unlock and purchase it from the in-game shop:
- Tier 1: Level 7
- Tier 2: Level 31 ($3,000 upgrade)
- Tier 3: Level 72 ($5,000 upgrade)
You can equip up to two Parabolic Microphones, regardless of team size. Note that prestiging resets your progress, requiring you to unlock each tier again.
Using the Parabolic Microphone:
Equip the Parabolic Microphone from the truck's equipment wall before each investigation. Tier 3 includes a directional radar.
On larger maps, the Parabolic Microphone is invaluable for locating ghosts via sound cues (e.g., object throws, door movements, ghostly whispers). It's also crucial for completing certain optional objectives and identifying ghosts like the Deogen or Banshee, which produce unique sounds only detectable by this device.
