The Deogen is a Ghost Type in Phasmophobia that will always be able to detect the player. This makes hiding impossible as the Deogen will open lockers, and closets, as well as hone in on any hiding spot that players might be tucked behind. It is only fast until a player is in line of sight, slowing down considerably when face to face with someone. This is how to escape from the Deogen in Phasmophobia.
How to loop the Deogen in Phasmophobia
TheDeogen Ghost Typewill chase players no matter where they are. They are impossible to hide from as they can sense the player, making running the only option. Running into a dead end means certain death unless players can see the Deogen, slow it down, and take the longest route to one end of the area. A safer version is to know the bestloop locationson each map so that players can simply run in circles while staring at the Deogen.
All Deogen looping locations in Phasmophobia
Edgefield Street House Looping Spots
On theEdgefieldmap, players thatencounter a Deogencan have a difficult time running away upstairs. The enclosed hallways and small rooms make it a deathtrap for any player trying to run from the Ghost. On the ground floor, or the first floor, are two spots where players can run around the Deogen with ease. The first is theliving room, using the couch as an obstacle that the Ghost can’t go around. If players are too fast going in one direction, the Ghost canchange directions, attempting to cut off the player.
The second spot is thegarage, which can still be very dangerous. A Deogen will move slowly as long as the player is within line of sight. By baiting the Deogen to chase the player to one part of the garage, they can then sprint out of the room and into the living room from with the leftover space in the room. Players can always use Smudge Sticks to escape from a dead end no matter where they are.

When the Ghost loses sight of the player, however, they will have their speed increased until they are within line of sight again. This can be dangerous when in the back of the vehicle.
