- DarkLady27882 years agoSeasoned Veteran@catloverplayer No I never knew that was a death in The Sims 4. I knew it was a death in The Sims 3 tho
- once in Sulani but that was rather intentional :sweat_smile:
- manicobsessive12 years agoSeasoned AceNope, I didn't realise that was a death! I've never had a shark in my game, only seen it on a Youtube video.
- NightwalkerArk2 years agoNew AceNot yet, though they have scared my Sims outta the water a few times.
If I heard and understood it correctly, your Sim can only be devoured on the Mua Pel'am lots. Never tested it myself. Or at least, not having any sharks showing up there yet, so I can't say for sure.
I wonder how a "devoured by shark" ghost would behave. The drowning ghost Sim? - RememberJoy2 years agoSeasoned AceYes, and it wasn't even purposeful :D
It happened during the one month one world one year challenge I participated in last year. My sim (current avatar) was out swimming in the deep water, saw a shark fin, and while swimming back to shore was pulled under and died!
That caught me by surprise, but fortunately his wife was a spellcaster who knew how to resurrect sims, so he didn't stay dead for too long. - EgonVM2 years agoSeasoned AceFor test purposes, yes. Though thanks to that, I know a lot about that.
There are three water danger levels: safe (Ohan'ali Town, Gibbs Hills), mild (Lani St. Taz, University of Britechester), and dangerous (Mua Pel'am, Foxbury Institute). Safe waters have no shark encounters, mild waters have shark encounters but no attacks, and dangerous waters have both shark encounters and attacks (I'd rather call it ocean threat attacks).
In order for your sim to be attacked by the ocean threat, they'll either need to have encountered a shark before or be cursed by an island spirit. Mermaids can summon it to attack other sims (even in swimming pools) but it will never kill.
If your sim gets pulled underwater, they'll either get a scared moodlet or an uncomfortable moodlet. If they get a scared moodlet, they survived, but now have an higher chance of getting pulled underwater again. If they get an uncomfortable moodlet, they will die by drowning immediately.
No different ghost type, just another way to die by drowning (with a special sound effect).
I don't know about any shark encounters in Tartosa. I however do know that water danger levels also apply to Britechester. - EgonVM2 years agoSeasoned AceOk. Tested it out and determined the following:
All the waters in Tartosa are safe.
The waters in Copperdale is safe.
The lake in Moonwood Mill is safe.
All the rivers in Henford-on-Bagley are safe.
All the other unmentioned worlds with swimming possibilities are safe from my experience.
So you really have to worry about that in Sulani and Britechester (Mua Pel'am and Foxbury Institute specifically). - MrGiggleTickle2 years agoSeasoned NewcomerFunnily enough. Yeah.

https://i.imgur.com/bysnvOl.png - 4Susanna132 years agoSeasoned AceMy sims obviously need to get out more. I didn't even know there was a place to swim at Foxberry. I have never encountered a shark at all. Hope I have not just jinxed my Salani sims.
- I've had one sim pulled under at Mua Pel'am, but she survived. Still, it were very tense moments while she swam to the shore.
At Lani St. Taz I regularly encounter sharks, and always (or almost always? I'm not 100% certain) a dolphin appears right afterwards, as if the lore explanation were that the dolphin shoo'd away the shark. It could be coincidence, as I said, I'm not entirely sure about this.
