ASims 4player has drawn up a helpful chart for dealing with one of the new features introduced inEnchanted by Nature. Released last week,Enchanted by Natureis the latest expansion forThe Sims 4. It includes various new features, includingthe ability to play as a fairy, and a whole host of new options for organic living.
Although it didn’t strictly introduce the feature,Enchanted by Naturehas many players dealing with the whims of gnomes- it’s all about planting and gardening, after all. But gnomes can be fickle, and their needs variable. Thankfully, Reddit userfluffhqhas drawn upa helpful chart for appeasing the needs of your gnomes. It details each type of gnome available, and exactly what appeases them - although there’s still a little random chance to be accounted for.
How Gnomes Work In Sims 4
Meeting Your Gnomes' Gneeds
Again,gnomes have been around inThe Sims 4since long beforeEnchanted by Nature- they were added as part of the Harvestfest eventin theSeasonsexpansion. But as more players are participating in planting and harvesting since the latest expansion pack, they’ve become a much bigger factor.
During Harvestfest, you can place a series of gnomes around your lot via the holiday decorations tab in Build Mode. You can then give them a gift of your choice in hopes of appeasing them. If it works, they’ll give you a pack of seeds; if not, they may even attack you.
A single gnome isn’t likely to kill your Sims, but a small group can be deadly.
Most gnomes are predictableand will always be appeased when given a certain gift - see the chart above. There are, of course, some exceptions. Certain gnomes have seemingly random reactions, no matter what gift you give them. Trailboss Gnomes, Gnome Sculptures, and Gnome-Shaped Gemstones can’t be appeased at all.
Enchanted by Naturedoes introduce a new gnome type, the Great Gnome, whose desires do work a little differently. If you give them a coffee or a pie, there’s a random chance of appeasement - although coffee has a higher chance of working during the day, and pie has a higher chance at night. A toy will always succeed in appeasing them, but always rewards a single acorn, while coffee and pie have a chance to grant you rarer items like Aura Petals and Fairy Dust.
