Master the Parabolic Microphone in Phasmophobia: A Comprehensive Guide
Phasmophobia offers a variety of ghost-hunting tools, and the Parabolic Microphone stands out as a particularly effective one. This guide details how to unlock and utilize this valuable piece of equipment for your investigations.
Unlocking the Parabolic Microphone
The Parabolic Microphone is optional equipment, requiring you to reach specific levels to unlock and purchase it from the in-game shop. Three tiers exist, each offering improved performance and reliability.
Remember, prestiging resets your level, requiring you to unlock each tier again. You can equip up to two microphones regardless of team size.
Utilizing the Parabolic Microphone
Equip the Parabolic Microphone from the truck's equipment wall after selecting it in the shop. Toggle it on/off using the appropriate button. Tier 3 includes a directional radar.
On medium and large maps, the Parabolic Microphone is invaluable for locating ghosts via sound cues (e.g., object throws, door movements, ghostly whispers). It can also help complete optional objectives requiring ghost voice recordings. Certain ghosts (like the Deogen or Banshee) produce unique sounds only detectable with this microphone, aiding in identification.
