Mermaids are kinda OP

Oh, and they have an extended lifespan as elders, too. I had a sim who was Active and earned Long-Lived, and I turned him into a merman. As an elder, he outlived grandchildren and a great-grandchild reached elder themselves when he finally passed. That great-grandchild was an elder for about 7 days by that time. It was wacky.

Hello!

I was trying mermaids and just realized they are lovely overpowered :D

Alike wizards, mermaids can replenish all their needs with a single interaction: "sirens call". It might be even superior to potions since it has a very small cooldown and virtually zero cost! Of course as long as you and "the victim" are near the ocean or that "japanese" lake.

Those mermaid chants are awesome!

Ima start a game with a mermaid, buy a laptop and live in the beach as a homeless freelancer haha!

Mermaids are my favorite! Siren's Call can cause an elder to die though! They get exhausted by being drained by the Siren. Kalamainu'u has culled the elderly population of Sulani in several of my saves.

I literally had the pack forever before learning about that! I thought they were just a visual effect. next thing I know, my sims don't have to eat. lol

@Valmont I so agree!

I know I'm a bit late to the party, but I've been playing in Sulani recently and I've noticed you can kill adult sims (and assumedly all others) using Siren's Call too. As far as I can tell, this is generally only likely to happen with members of your own household. If you keep doing it, their needs just drain all the way and they drown.

I'm having a lot of fun with my "evil" mermaid sim who I like to make seduce men, lure them into the ocean then do nefarious things to fill her needs >:)

I didn't know about the extended lifespan @CherryBerryCloud so thanks for pointing that out.

The "Summon Thunderstorm" mermaid ability is awesome too. Wet sims are way more likely to get hit by lightning, so if Siren's Call doesn't finish them off, they tend to get zapped.

I kinda like having an OP occult - makes it more "spectacular".

I always say mermaids don't get enough credit because every is upset they don't have an underwater lot (and rightfully so) but mermaids are one of my most used occults they are totally awesome and so much fun to make in CAS! Especially if you have mermaid cc.

I haven't dug into custom content much. i did try to download a clamshell shaped bed one time but it didn't work all that well. What kind of CC you using?

Oooh I didn’t know this! I’m going to try chaining Siren’s Call > Ocean Threat next time and make sure they’re nice and far from land!
