How to Ghost Face

ColoursBleed

Hey guys. I wanted to ask for some advice on playing Ghost face. I quite enjoy playing them, but I find it difficult to make the most of Night Shroud as survivors always manage to reveal me. And I find it hard to sustain pressure on the gens. Any advice?

Learn spawns, use whispers, and go around the edges of the map, those are the basics for the early stalks with Ghosty.

Only stalk closer to the beginning of the match, because people will be on high alert later in the match/once they know you're ghost face, and fully stalking someone is nearly impossible. The only time to stalk late match is if the survivors you found are farther away and completely unaware. Just take advantage of having no terror radius or red stain, and use night shroud as much as possible. His power recovery add-ons are really helpful for this. Don't worry about them revealing you, because if they do outside of a chase it'll tell you where they are, and survivors often try to break you out while you're chasing them, which messes up how well they do in a chase, so catching them is easier. I recommend nurse's calling because it's easy to sneak up on people who are healing if you're using night shroud.

I've never had much luck with whisper. But thank you for the advice overall.

I actually just got a nice 4 kill using: Pop Goes the Weasel, BBQ, Overcharge and Surveillance. Very satisfying.

Ghostface's power is to mark and down survivors in a single hit. But his power is also to lose terror radius and his red stain, and this second part of his power is about as strong as marking and downing.

When two survivors are sitting at the same gen, instead of marking both survivors i try to leave them almost marked and catch one of them. Works about 7/10 times. When I don't catch, I still have them almost fully marked and it's easy to down them from there.

TL;DR Losing Terror Radius and Redstain is much more powerful than people think.
