Pass the Fear guides

Ten decision-focused guides explain how Pass the Fear systems connect, what to compare, and which next step solves the problem in your current run.

Pass the Fear Beginner Guide: Build a Run That Makes Sense

A spoiler-light route through early weapon choices, elemental roles, relic triggers, difficulty, and the pickup questions that prevent a run from becoming a pile of unrelated items.

Pass the Fear Transmutations: Every Element and When It Pays Off

The verified outcomes for Hemorrhage, Freeze, Disruption, Corrosion, and Ignition, plus a practical framework for buildup speed, direct triggers, and co-op roles.

A four-player lobby setup guide for Steam and LAN, with the official online-status, download-region, VPN, version, and room-recreation checks in the right order.

Pass the Fear Difficulty Guide: Rewards, Risks, and Battle Scars

A decision guide from Journey to Reality: exact learning-mode tradeoffs, treasure-quality changes, required Chaos Battle Scars, later-chapter enemies, and when to move up.

Pass the Fear Forge and Shatter Guide: Keep, Upgrade, or Dismantle

How to separate owned effects, forge destinations, hidden passives, and Shatter triggers so every relic decision reflects the build you have—not the color you hope to find.

Pass the Fear Build Planning Guide: From Baseline to Legal Loadout

A practical way to plan one hunter, two weapons and parts, ten relics, five tarot cards, personal upgrades, and Team Talents without counting conditional effects as permanent stats.

Pass the Fear Weapon Stats Guide: Compare Rarity, DPS, and Affixes

How to compare weapon variants at the same state, read attack ranges, distinguish burst from sustained output, value buildup, and reject affixes that do not fit the firing loop.

Pass the Fear Relic Synergy Guide: Build Around Triggers, Not Color

A repeatable method for rating relics by trigger frequency, payoff, coverage, hidden relationships, forge plans, and ten-slot opportunity cost instead of rarity alone.

Pass the Fear Tarot Guide: Upright, Reversed, and Five-Slot Planning

How to treat all 44 tarot faces as separate effects, compare upright and reversed conditions, coordinate relic relationships, and spend five slots on a plan you can actually trigger.

Pass the Fear Character Progression and Team Talents Guide

How seven hunters progress from level 1 to 6, how the five personal upgrade rows work, what 100 cumulative upgrade currency buys, and why the 12-point Team Talent tree must be planned separately.
