Greetings Ghosts!

Thanks for checking out our latest weekly update!

This week, we’re taking a look at ghostly possession data from our most recent alpha test.

Let’s see which props were most commonly possessed and hid inside!

The graph above displays the top 5 most possessed props, colored by size.

The graph above displays the top 5 most possessed props, colored by size.

We classify props into 3 different subgroups: Large, Medium and Small.

Large props, as the name implies are bulky and heavy items which suffer from a movement reduction. However, they have extremely high damage potential due to their weight.

Players who are fans of large props should utilize the Heavyweight perk to reduce incoming damage to those types of props!

Medium Props are the most common type of prop, They are often a solid choice, being a good balance between size, speed, and damage.

Lastly, we arrive to the small props! Littered across the map, these hard to notice props prove favorable to Ghosts would rather shy away from a fight. Easier to hide, fast to escape, but very fragile.

These kinds of props are best for a “juking” strategy, always moving around and relocating. Based on our data, it seems they are most effectively paired with the Phantom or Spirit abilities for extra escape potential.

It appears the Lantern was our most commonly possessed prop for this test!
This clearly proves that the lantern is clearly everyone’s favorite prop!
(Or maybe that we have too many of them across the maps…)

As we develop new maps and environments we will revisit these graphs and compare. With only 3 maps currently available, you are likely to see a bit of overlap between the few. We aim to have as many unique props for each map as possible, so we expect to see more even distribution going forward.

Thanks for checking out this update! Let us know what your favorite prop is, or any ideas you have for new props to be added in future tests.
