How to Beat Wraith

Learn how to identify and counter the Wraith in Phasmophobia. This guide covers its unique behaviors, weaknesses, and effective strategies to survive and complete investigations.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Identify the Wraith: Look for signs of the Wraith's unique abilities, such as its ability to fly and pass through solid objects. It does not leave footprints in salt.
  2. 2
    Utilize Crucifixes: While the Wraith is immune to the standard Crucifix, placing them strategically can still deter it from hunting in certain areas.
  3. 3
    Avoid Salt Traps: Do not rely on salt to detect the Wraith's movement, as it will not leave footprints.
  4. 4
    Use Incense: Incense can temporarily prevent the Wraith from hunting, giving you a window to escape or gather evidence.
  5. 5
    Monitor Sanity: Keep an eye on your sanity levels, as low sanity increases the chance of hunts.
  6. 6
    Use Truck Equipment: The Sanity Monitor and Site Activity Monitor in the truck can provide valuable information about the ghost's behavior and your team's status.
Tips
  • The Wraith's ability to fly means it can bypass many physical barriers.
  • It is particularly dangerous in open areas or during hunts where it can close the distance quickly.
  • Always be prepared for a hunt, even if you believe you have deterred the ghost.
  • Using a Spirit Box or Ghost Writing Book can help confirm the Wraith's identity through its unique responses or lack thereof.
