Vampires that are not immune to sunlight will die instantly when exposed to direct sunlight in The Sims 4. The good news is that there are a couple of things that you can do to protect vampires from the Sun’s deadly rays.
How can I protect vampires from sunlight in Sims 4?
The best solution to protect vampires from sunlight in The Sims 4 is to level up and unlock the Sun Resistance ability. The Perfect Sun Resistance ability makes vampires immune to sunlight. Alternatively, have them carry an umbrella during daylight.
Use an umbrella
Have your vampire Sim carry an umbrella during the day and the sun won’t burn them. Just make sure not to interact with other Sims while carrying an umbrella. If you do that, your vampire Sim will likely close the umbrella to focus on the pending interactions.
For example, if you want your vampire to attend a wedding on a beach in Sulani, have them carry an umbrella and they should be able to attend the event without any problems.
Just don’t forget to keep an eye on them and prevent them from chatting or interacting with other Sims.
Develop resistance to sunlight
As your vampire levels up, they can earn additional points and use them to unlock new vampire powers. The Sun Resistance ability grant vampires resistance to sunlight.
To unlock this ability, your vampire needs to reach Tier 4 and become a Master Vampire.
There are three levels of Sun Resistance:
Level 1: Sun Resistance
Vampires can better withstand the sun rays but they still remain dangerous. Avoid overexposure.
Level 2: Greater Sun Resistance
With Greater Sun Resistance, vampires become more impervious to sunlight effects. However, they still need to be cautious during the daytime hours.
Level 3: Perfect Sun Resistance
Perfect Sun Resistance allows vampires to walk around in the middle of the day under direct sunlight without getting turned into a pile of ashes.
The Sun Resistance ability works by reducing the drain on Vampire Energy.
However, that doesn’t mean your vampire is completely immune to sunlight after unlocking the first tier of Sun Resistance.
The first two levels of the Sun Resistance ability only reduce the chances of vampires dying in sunlight. It doesn’t make them immune to sunlight.
To become completely immune to sunlight, vampires need to unlock the Perfect Sun Resistance ability (Tier 3).
You can also use cheats to get the job done instantly.
