Are cheats bannable in Phasmophobia?

Yes, cheats and using third-party software in Phasmophobia are bannable offenses, with Kinetic Games having a zero-tolerance policy for hacking, exploiting game files, or gaining unfair advantages, which can result in both temporary and permanent bans through their anti-cheat system and player reports. Even playing with known cheaters can get you banned, so it's best to avoid them or play in single-player if you want to use mods, though using mods is still against the rules and can corrupt files.

What ghosts can hunt at 100% sanity?

In Phasmophobia, the Demon is the primary ghost that can hunt at 100% sanity by using a special ability to bypass normal rules, while the Banshee can also initiate a hunt regardless of average sanity if its chosen target is present, though the target's sanity still matters for the Banshee. Other ghosts like the Mimic can mimic these abilities, and certain conditions (like a Yurei's sanity drain) can quickly drop sanity to hunting levels.

How to tell if it's a Thaye Phasmophobia?

To tell if it's a Thaye in Phasmophobia, watch its hunt speed: it starts incredibly fast (hunting at high sanity) and gets progressively slower as you stay in its room, eventually becoming very sluggish, unlike other ghosts that speed up with line-of-sight. You can confirm by using the Ouija Board; its "age" increases as you spend time near it, and you can track this change, noting it becomes less active and hunts less often as it gets older.
