Is the Gnome of the Darned always on this lot or does he just appear?
Has anyone heard anymore about the 2 animal gnomes for the cat and dog. I heard maybe puppies or kitten will work. Also that dogs have to have all skills and be best friends to get the dog gnome.
When you first go to the fortune teller there is a GD there. If you take it, and go back later, you probably won't find another. I've tried, after mine died, and no luck. So whether they respawn there or not I don't know for sure yet.
I was able to get one when using the miner.
Me too. It was the first time try too and I was surprised it was an evil gnome. Haven't pulled him out of the treasure chest I'm keeping him yet though.
According to the game coding, the dog & cat gnome both have a 7% chance of appearing on your lot. For the dogs, it matters that they are best friends. The dogs being best friends with everyone in the house will expedite you getting one. For the cats, it's being whacked out. The chance for one appearing is only checked once per day unlike some other gnomes.
I can't get an Evil Gnome to save my life. I want one so bad and he just never comes! Has anyone else been able to get one?
I can't get the dog gnome to save my life. lol Or a laundry gnome for that matter and he's one of the easiest ones to get. My dog is bff but maybe I trained him too much. I did finally get a Freezer Bunny gnome from his barking.
I've been trying to get a springtime gnome in my UC file for quite some time and the only way I've gotten one so far has been through egg hunts. It's pretty random though I've noticed there is a time factor there. After a bit most of the townies will start hanging out on the festival lot so you definitely have to work fast and be there fairly early. When I went BEFORE 8 am I had no luck. When I went around 10 am I had no luck. When I went at 8 am I got three of them. So I'm figuring timing is a factor. I'm currently trying to get one to show up on my lot from whoohooing, and while my Sim and her partner are having a lot of fun, no spring gnome has appeared. wink, wink My Sims partner, (he moved in but they aren't engaged yet), is going for a career in music to try for the lounge lizard gnome and he is pretty high up in celeb status so we'll see if he gets a Bling Bling gnome.
Gotten my troglodyte gnome from time travel to the past. Am now traveling more to see if I get any other gnomes.
Summer time gnome is adorable. (I do love the Seasons gnomes!). He showed up on my lot after I cranked the heat up to 100 and napped in the sun. My Sim had the LTR that prevented heat problems so I was worried he wouldn't show up.
He does tricks on his life preserver!
The Gnome of the Darned comes in colors. When you get him from the Claaw he is an orangey pink. He's usually ticked off. When you get him from the gypsy he can start off white, or grey but soon becomes cyan colored. After he's been on the lot awhile, the Claaw gnome will go yellow and hunt other gnomes, Sims, or plants. They can also go green. The cyan colored one looks sad, the yellow or pink one looks angry. I THINK, but don't know, the colors are part of their mood. They attract a variety of ghosts to your lot who do the usual ghosty things like play pranks, or play in the sprinkler, eat your food, (leaving the mess behind), sleep in your bed and more. When they die or get sold, the ghosts stop appearing.
They seem to really dislike vampire gnomes and frequently will stalk them. Mine has even gotten the rest of the gnome family to join in and they will all go after the poor vampire gnome.
