How To Put The Flashlight On Your Shoulder In Phasmophobia

Managing your equipment effectively in Phasmophobia is crucial for successful ghost hunts. One common question among players is how to position your flashlight on your shoulder for better visibility and hand freedom. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the current method for equipping your flashlight alongside other items in Phasmophobia.

Understanding the Flashlight Placement System

The flashlight placement mechanic in Phasmophobia has been updated, and it’s important to understand how the current system works. The method has changed slightly from previous versions, but the core functionality remains straightforward and intuitive.

How the Dual-Hand System Works

When you pick up any other item in Phasmophobia, your flashlight will automatically equip in your opposite hand. This means you won’t have an empty hand while exploring. Here’s how the system functions:

Right Hand Item: If you hold any item in your right hand, your flashlight will appear in your left hand

Left Hand Item: Conversely, if you hold an item in your left hand, your flashlight will be in your right hand

Dual Equipment: You’ll always have both your equipped item and your flashlight active simultaneously

Important Note About Shoulder Placement

It’s worth noting that the flashlight won’t physically appear on your shoulder in the traditional sense. Instead, it will be held in your opposite hand. This provides the same practical benefit—you have a light source while keeping your hands free for other essential equipment like EMF meters, thermometers, or spirit boxes.

Summary

The flashlight placement system in Phasmophobia has been refined to make equipment management simpler. By picking up any item, you’ll automatically have your flashlight equipped in the opposite hand, ensuring you always have both a tool and a light source ready. While the method has evolved slightly over time, the functionality remains effective for navigating dark environments during your ghost-hunting investigations.
