How it plays
The Psychologist starts at 100% sanity and doubles everything: coffee heals twice as much, check-in and treatment sanity ticks twice as hard — and every anomaly mistake and monster hit also lands twice as hard. It's the one class where your own accuracy is the stat being amplified.
Two sourced details soften the risk. Job stress — the passive drain every class takes — is doubled to −2 but 1 is regained automatically, so the net drain matches every other class. And from level 2 the ignore-loss chance (7.5%, then 15% at level 3) means roughly one in seven hits at max level simply doesn't happen. Confident players get a sanity engine; everyone else gets a lesson.
Key perk at a glance: Lv.2: 7.5% chance to ignore sanity loss · Lv.3: 15%.
FAQ
Does the Psychologist double sanity loss too?
Yes — all sanity effects are doubled in both directions. The exception in practice is the passive job-stress drain: it doubles to −2 but 1 is regained, so the net matches other classes.
Is the Psychologist worth 500 Animal Coins?
For experienced players, it's one of the best coin purchases — 100% starting sanity plus doubled gains is the strongest sanity economy available. For newer players the doubled losses make it actively worse than the free Intern.
What does the Psychologist's level 3 do?
The ignore-loss chance rises to 15% (from 7.5% at level 2) — about one in seven sanity hits is negated entirely, on top of the doubled effects.
