Wooo! Just a few more and you’re done! And in an insanely short amount of time!
I seem to have misplaced my 100 baby save, but I am definitely tempted to try this challenge again thanks to you. If I do, I’ll have to let you know how long it takes me to finally finish this time :p
@Auranaris Oh, Auranaris, Night Elf of Infinite Beauty! I do hope you'll give the 100 Baby Challenge another whirl.
There's a couple of things that made my own attempt easier and faster, as you've no doubt surmised:
*I use a human matriarch that has shamelessly exploited the Occult Incentive. Yae actually gave birth to 66 babies; they included 33 occultboos that boosted her baby count to 99 babies born.
*Choose a lot in one of the warmer towns so your sims can live comfortably al fresco in a micro home. The skill gain makes toddler skilling a breeze.
*A spellcaster helper is the most useful, especially at the beginning.
*Do a 5-tradition holiday every week. A successfully completed 5-trad holiday grants 500 satisfaction per sim, which can be used to buy moodlet solvers.
After awhile, my spellcaster helper didn't even need to brew Potions of Plentiful Needs.
*I added 2 casters and 2 mermen from MyLibary to Yae's world. I only wish I'd added the mermen sooner, since my game didn't generate new merpeeps, only children of the premade merpeeps.
*Squeeze vampboos out of normie sims via the Dark Ley Line trait, LOL! I created a community lot with both the Dark Ley Line & On Ley Line traits.
This strat didn't occur to me until summer. If I'd used this strat from spring, I would be done now, haha.
*If it seems like your matriarch will give birth without room to try for baby again, try to get at least one kid out early by spamming the well.
In my experience, even in a vanilla game, if there's only one household opening at conception but two or three openings when mama goes into labor, mama can still have twins or even triplets.
Weekends are the worst!
I'm sure you knew most of this already, but I listed them all just in case. Please start a new challenge and let me know how it goes.
Oh, I'm probably going to do a Not So Berry Challenge next. By any chance, could I convince you to start one along with me? I love playing challenges together with simming buddies.
(Please don't say you don't consider me your simming buddy or I'll cry.)
If you want to complete the 100 Baby Challenge, I would wait for you to start an NSB, maybe.
